Similar to how AHCI handles NCQ errors in ahci_error_intr() ->
ata_port_abort() -> ata_do_link_abort(), add an NCQ error handler for LLDDs
to call to initiate a link abort.

This will mark all outstanding QCs as failed and kick-off EH.

Note:
The ATA_EH_RESET flag is set for following reasons:
- For hisi_sas, SATA device resources during error handling will only be
   released during reset for ATA EH.
   ATA EH could decide during autopsy that EH would not be required, so
   ensure that it happens (by setting the flag).
- Similar to hisi_sas, pm8001 NCQ error handling requires a hardreset to
   ensure necessary recovery commands are sent (so again we require flag
   ATA_EH_RESET to be set as an insurance policy).

Hi Damien,

Warning: I'm going to write a bit of an essay here... :)

I am still not convinced that we should set this here. ata_eh_link_autopsy() and
ata_eh_analyze_serror() are supposed to set the action based on the error. Can't
you reuse the link autopsy function ?

The link autopsy code works ok, but it may not decide to do the reset which we may rely on.

For hisi_sas, consider this log from an NCQ error:

[ 174.385827] ata10: EH complete

The ATA autopsy has a found medium error and decided that reset is not required - this is similar in that regard to the "unaligned write to a sequential write required zone on SMR" error you mentioned from your test previously. The problem in this is that for hisi_sas we depend on disk reset to release driver resources associated with ATA QCs. That is because it is only after reset that we can guarantee that no IO associated with the disk will complete in HW and it is safe to release the resources.

But pm8001 seems different here with regards releasing resources. I find that when EH kicks in from NCQ error and libsas tries to abort missing commands, the pm8001_abort_task() -> sas_execute_internal_abort_single() causes the original IO to complete as aborted - this is good, as then we may release the resources there. hisi_sas has no such feature.

But the pm8001 manual and current driver indicate that the OPC_INB_SATA_ABORT command should be sent after read log ext when handling NCQ error, regardless of an autopsy. I send OPC_INB_SATA_ABORT in ata_eh_reset() -> pm8001_I_T_nexus_reset() -> pm8001_send_abort_all()

As I mentioned before, I saw nowhere better to call pm8001_send_abort_all() for this. I would rather not do it in ata_eh_reset() -> pm8001_I_T_nexus_reset()

How about this modified approach:
- Continue to set ATA_EH_RESET in sas_ata_device_link_abort()
- pm8001_I_T_nexus_reset() will only call pm8001_send_abort_all() when the driver is in NCQ error state and not do a hard reset in that case. - But I am not sure if that works as the autopsy for NCQ error may have decided that a hardreset was really required. Hmmm..

Thanks,
John
