Then it should use the new & shiny :) native cs5536 IDE host driver instead of legacy support in amd74xx... > While debuging the hard disk suspned and resume, the ide irq can not be > cleared.

AFAICS the only change that the fixup would cause for suspend/resume paths is the one in ide_config_drive_speed() which is called during resume to set transfer mode on the drive: tp_ops->write_devctl(hwif, ATA_NIEN | ATA_DEVCTL_OBS); memset(&tf, 0, sizeof(tf)); tf.feature = SETFEATURES_XFER; tf.nsect = speed; tp_ops->tf_load(drive, &tf, IDE_VALID_FEATURE | IDE_VALID_NSECT); tp_ops->exec_command(hwif, ATA_CMD_SET_FEATURES); ---> if (drive->quirk_list == 2) tp_ops->write_devctl(hwif, ATA_DEVCTL_OBS); ---> error = __ide_wait_stat(drive, drive->ready_stat, ATA_BUSY | ATA_DRQ | ATA_ERR, WAIT_CMD, &stat); Please tell me I if understand the issue correctly: if the above quirk is not executed we end up with spurious IRQs, right? > This patch is to fix this issue.

Anyway this fixup needs to be ported to / verified with cs5536 first. Thanks.
