[PATCH v8 3/3] ahci_xgene: Fix the link down in first attempt for the APM X-Gene SoC AHCI SATA host controller driver.

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This patch addresses two HW erratas as described below by retrying the
COMRESET:

1. During speed negotiation, controller is not able to detect ALIGN
at GEN3(6Gbps) within 54.6us and results in a timeout. This issue can
be recovered by issuing a COMRESET.

2. Although ALIGN detection is successful, 8b/10b and disparity bit
errors can occur which result in the signature FIS not received
successfully by the Host controller. Due to this, the PHY communication
between the host and drive is not established because of CDR(clock and
data recovery) circuit doesn't lock. This issue can be recoverd by issuing
a COMRESET.

The above retries are issued only if the port status register PXSTATUS
reports device presence detected but PHY communication not established.
The maximum retry attempts are 3.
