I think the old HPCP bit should just be ignored, although windows does use it, i.e. when I enable hotplug capability in the bios on my desktop it shows the "eject device" icon for a device attached to the port on the motherboard, we probably can ignore it on linux to not break all automounting distros. On my laptop, where I care about this, it still works as intended. diff --git a/drivers/ata/libahci.c b/drivers/ata/libahci.c index 4029679..e029e3c 100644 --- a/drivers/ata/libahci.c +++ b/drivers/ata/libahci.c @@ -1164,8 +1164,7 @@ static void ahci_port_init(struct device *dev, struct ata_port *ap, /* mark esata ports */ tmp = readl(port_mmio + PORT_CMD); - if ((tmp & PORT_CMD_HPCP) || - ((tmp & PORT_CMD_ESP) && (hpriv->cap & HOST_CAP_SXS))) + if ((tmp & PORT_CMD_ESP) && (hpriv->cap & HOST_CAP_SXS)) ap->pflags |= ATA_PFLAG_EXTERNAL; } -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ide" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
