I still think the flushing should be split out into a separate subsystem of some
sort, or into common code. Can you explain why it is needed in this driver, and
what other parts of your SoC also need to do the same thing?

Maybe we can have custom dma_map_ops for your platform so the flushing automatically
happens in dma_unmap_sg().

In general, I recommend against adding code "for future expansion", because you
never actually know what that future expansion is going to be like until the
patches have been reviewed.

This seems to be a rather expensive operation. Can you explain what the extra
flush is trying to achieve here? Normally you'd want to eliminate any readl()
from high-performance device drivers if you can. Is this used in any fast
path?

With SATA_RESET_MEM_RAM_TO == 100000, this is an awfully long busy-loop.
Can you replace the udelay with usleep_range() providing a reasonable
wide range, and the replace the retry count with a time_before(jiffies(),
timeout) comparision?

Normally the synchronization should be guaranteed by using MSI interrupts
rather than edge or level interrupt pins. Do you have MSI support in your
hardware? Using that would get rid of this ugly hack and likely improve
performance significantly.

If you don't have MSI, why isn't the PORT_IRQ_STAT read sufficient
to do the flush? Like the MSI message, that should serialize any DMA
from this device.

(void *) __va(addr) is /not/ generally speaking a valid pointer, you cannot
rely on this to work, e.g. when you have an IOMMU, or if someone tries
to reuse the driver for a 32-bit system where the memory is in highmem.

Also, I suspect the xgene_ahci_to_axi() call is what you incorrectly
do instead of using the dma_map_ops provide the correct dma_addr_t.

Note the sg_list is populated using dma_map_sg(), which is supposed
to fill the dma_addr_t field in the address space of the current device,
and also do all the necessary flushing.

I suspect a significant portion of your ahci driver (and by extension,
all other dma master drivers on the same bus) can be removed after you
implement the dma_map_ops for your hardware.

This part seems to fall in the same category, according to the comment.

You seem to do the same check twice, with the first one being incorrect
in case of_node is present but disabled.

This will fail when ACPI is enabled and you boot on a UEFI system and DT probing.
I think that would be the common case for a while.

I also suspect this driver won't work with ACPI as-is, as it currently relies
on the phy driver and won't use that with ACPI. IMHO it would be easier to
defer the ACPI enablement for now. It was good that you had it in here in the
initial version as Jon recommended, but for the purpose of merging the driver
it seems like more of a distraction.

You can use devm_ioremap_resource() here now to replace the longer construct.
I think you can also remove the hpriv->mmio_phys field	as that is used only
for informational purposes (use the dev_name instead).

same here and for the other resources.

You need to check the errors here: this will fail if the bus
underneath is not 64-bit. I would also recommend using the new
dma_set_mask_and_coherent() helper that was introduced in this
merge window.

Nothing in this function seems to be xgene specific, and you don't
use the hpriv pointer. Can you use a generic libata function instead,
or add this one to libata if it can be reused for other drivers?

Same here.
