SCSI/ATA Translation-5 (SAT-5) Table 209 — "ATA command results" specifies that SATL shall generate sense data for ATA PASS-THROUGH commands when either CK_COND is set or when ATA_ERR or ATA_DF status bits are set. ata_eh_analyze_tf() sets AC_ERR_DEV bit in qc->err_mask when ATA_ERR or ATA_DF bits are set. It looks like qc->err_mask can be used as an error indicator but ata_eh_link_autopsy() clears AC_ERR_DEV bit when ATA_QCFLAG_SENSE_VALID is set. This effectively clears the error indication if no other bits were set in qc->err_mask. ata_scsi_qc_complete() should not use qc->err_mask for ATA PASS-THROUGH commands because qc->err_mask can be zero (i.e. "no error") even when the corresponding command has failed with ATA_ERR/ATA_DF bits set. Additionally, the presence of valid sense data (ATA_QCFLAG_SENSE_VALID) should not prevent SATL from generating sense data for ATA PASS-THROUGH.
