Since commit 058e55e120ca which fixed that commands without valid

errors were completely bogus as ata_to_sense_error did not have valid

For example the following ATA error
exception Emask 0x10 SAct 0x20c000 SErr 0x280100 action 0x6 frozen
irq_stat 0x08000000, interface fatal error
SError: { UnrecovData 10B8B BadCRC }

res 40/00:ac:20:5e:50/00:00:5d:01:00/40 Emask 0x10 (ATA bus error)
status: { DRDY }
got turned into the following nonsensical SCSI error
FAILED Result: hostbyte=DID_OK driverbyte=DRIVER_OK cmd_age=0s
Sense Key : Illegal Request [current]
Add. Sense: Unaligned write command
CDB: Read(16) 88 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 0a 20 00 00 00 e0 00 00
This has nothing to do with an unaligned write command, but is due to an
ATA EH-triggered abort. But ata_to_sense_error only knows about
status and error, both of which aren't even valid here as the command
has been aborted.
Add an additional section to ata_gen_ata_sense which handles
errors not coming from the device first, before calling into
ata_to_sense_error.
According to the SAT-5 spec a reset should cause a Unit Attention event,
which the SCSI subsystem should handle to retry its commands but I
am not sure how much of that infra is present in Linux's SCSI layer, so
this is a simpler solution.

Did you check SATA IO specs and/or AHCI to see if that says anything about these
? And I wonder if we should check if we have something in tf->status and
tf->error...
We really should. The above combination of error masks seems pretty
arbitrary, as actually you do _not_ want to check for there error mask,
but rather for the fact that the sense code is bogus.
So shouldn't we rather test for that one directly?

Multi-line comment style: start with a "/*" line please. The phrasing of the
comment is not very clear. Maybe something like:
/*
* If the command aborted because of some issue with the
* adapter or link, report a POWER ON, RESET, OR BUS DEVICE
* RESET OCCURRED error.
*/
Did you check that all of the above error flags lead to a drive reset ? The
issue I have with this is that the drive reset is triggered by libata EH after
it got these bad errors but the sense data you use here normally indicate that
the reset was initiated by the adapter or the drive. Not sure this is ideal.
Yes. We should rather return a DID_RESET status instead of any made up
sense code for which we don't have a good justification, and which might
get invalidated by future SATL versions.
Cheers,
Hannes
