This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled libata-acpi: add back ACPI based hotplug functionality to the 3.9-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: libata-acpi-add-back-acpi-based-hotplug-functionality.patch and it can be found in the queue-3.9 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From 44521527be36172864e6e7a6fba4b66e9aa48e40 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Aaron Lu <aaron.lu@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu, 20 Jun 2013 09:38:34 +0800 Subject: libata-acpi: add back ACPI based hotplug functionality From: Aaron Lu <aaron.lu@xxxxxxxxx> commit 44521527be36172864e6e7a6fba4b66e9aa48e40 upstream. Commit 30dcf76acc69 "libata: migrate ACPI code over to new bindings" mistakenly dropped the code to register hotplug notificaion handler for ATA port/devices, causing regression for people using ATA bay, as kernel bug #59871 shows. Fix this by adding back the hotplug notification handler registration code. Since this code has to be run once and notification needs to be installed on every ATA port/devices handle no matter if there is actual device attached, we can't do this in binding time for ATA device ACPI handle, as the binding only occurs when a SCSI device is created, i.e. there is device attached. So introduce the ata_acpi_hotplug_init() function to loop scan all ATA ACPI handles and if it is available, install the notificaion handler for it during ATA init time. With the ATA ACPI handle binding to SCSI device tree, it is possible now that when the SCSI hotplug work removes the SCSI device, the ACPI unbind function will find that the corresponding ACPI device has already been deleted by dock driver, causing a scaring message like: [ 128.263966] scsi 4:0:0:0: Oops, 'acpi_handle' corrupt Fix this by waiting for SCSI hotplug task finish in our notificaion handler, so that the removal of ACPI device done in ACPI unbind function triggered by the removal of SCSI device is run earlier when ACPI device is still available.
