Are you sure you are using the latest version of the patch? This seems like a bug, if the device doesn't support HIPM or DIPM it shouldn't attempt to use ALPM. There was a check for this put into the patch on about the second or third version - maybe I'm not doing it right.

Dunno why. It works because after EH you've reset the port, and when you reset the port you turn off ipm (note the value of SControl). I left this the way it was without attempting to renable link pm after a reset because I figured if there was something bad happening and we needed to reset we should leave ipm off. As far as the failure you are seeing goes - this may not actually be a hardware problem but just a case of us not understanding which bits we need to clear out of the Interrupt status register once we enable ALPM. The value of SErr indicates that this device has gotten PhyRdy - which is normal for power state changes, and the interrupt status indicates that a d2h FIS was received which is also normal - the TFES bit seems to be set - it may be that we need to modify the interrupt code to not only ignore PhyRdy when ALPM is enabled, but also clear out bit 0 - this is definitely something we can try. But, meanwhile, please make sure you are testing with the latest version of the patches. > > 3.

Make sure you are using the latest version of the patches - and that the devices are not resetting themselves for some reason. I don't see how hotplug can work if we are indeed ignoring PhyRdy. > With some massging to ahci_disable_alpm(), I think it can be fairly > safe on this chipset at least. Not sure what part of disable_alpm you think is broken here - I see the issue to be more likely in the interrupt handler. I'll regenerate the patches today against the latest kernel and you should rerun your tests just to make sure we aren't trying to fix something that's already been fixed.
