Value undocumented? Or is this the SATA SControl register by chance?
Some magic is still there...
Antoine,
I guess Sergei was referring to AHCI spec here. PORT_SCR bits are
documented in AHCI spec as:
7:4 = 0x3 Limit speed negotiation to a rate not greater than Gen3
communication rate.
3:0 = 0x1 Perform interface communication sequence [...]. This is
functionally equivalent to a hard reset [...].
So, the question is: Should we really need to reset controller in the
PHY driver or is it already done in AHCI common code? At least we
should change the comment to something like
/* set Gen3 controller speed and perform hard reset */
