[PATCH v2 2/2] ata: ahci: Protect users from setting policies their drives don't support

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

 



As the default low power policy applies to more chipsets and drives, it's
important to make sure that drives actually support the policy that a user
selected in their kernel configuration.

If the drive doesn't support slumber, don't let the default policies
dependent upon slumber (`min_power` or `min_power_with_partial`) affect the
disk.

Changes from v1->v2:
* Move deeper into codepaths
* Reset to MED_POWER rather than ignore
