From 14d2bac1877ed4e2cc940d1680db1a4f29225811 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tejun Heo Date: Sun, 2 Apr 2006 17:54:46 +0900 Subject: [PATCH] libata: improve ata_bus_probe() Improve ata_bus_probe() such that configuration failures are handled better. Each device is given ATA_PROBE_MAX_TRIES chances, but any non-transient error (revalidation failure with -ENODEV, configuration failure with -EINVAL...) disables the device directly. Any IO error results in SATA PHY speed down and ata_set_mode() failure lowers transfer mode. The last try always puts a device into PIO-0. After each failure, the whole port is reset to make sure that the controller and all the devices are in a known and stable state. The reset also applies SATA SPD configuration if necessary.
