As reported in [0], the pm8001 driver NCQ error handling more or less
duplicates what libata does in link error handling, as follows:
- abort all commands
- do autopsy with read log ext 10 command
- reset the target to recover

Indeed for the hisi_sas driver we want to add similar handling for NCQ
errors.

This series add a new libsas API - sas_ata_link_abort() - to handle host
NCQ errors, and fixes up pm8001 and hisi_sas drivers to use it. As
mentioned in the pm8001 changeover patch, I would prefer a better place to
locate the SATA ABORT command (rather that nexus reset callback).

I would appreciate some testing of the pm8001 change as the read log ext10
command mostly hangs on my arm64 machine - these arm64 hangs are a known
issue.


Thanks for this!

I applied this series on top of the current Linus tree and ran some tests: a
bunch of fio runs and also ran libzbc test suites on a SATA SMR drive as that
generates many command failures. No problems detected, the tests all pass.
FYI, messages for failed commands look like this:

pm80xx0:: mpi_sata_event 2685: SATA EVENT 0x23

For this specific test we don't seem to run a hardreset after the autopsy, but we do seem to be getting an NCQ error. That's interesting.

We have noticed this scenario for hisi_sas NCQ error, whereby the autopsy decided a reset is not required or useful, such as a medium error. Anyway the pm8001 driver relies on the reset being run always for the NCQ error. So I am thinking of tweaking sas_ata_link_abort() as follows:

void sas_ata_link_abort(struct domain_device *device)
{
	struct ata_port *ap = device->sata_dev.ap;
	struct ata_link *link = &ap->link;

	link->eh_info.err_mask |= AC_ERR_DEV;
+	link->eh_info.action |= ATA_EH_RESET;
	ata_link_abort(link);
}

This should force a reset.

Thanks,
John

Seems all good to me.


Finally with these changes we can make the libsas task alloc/free APIs
private, which they should always have been.

Based on v5.19-rc6
