Subject: Fallback sequence in scsi_transport_spi
Date: Mon, 25 Jul 2005 10:30:31 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <42E4A327.90005@suse.de> (raw)

Hi James,

it appears that the fallback sequence in
scsi_transport_spi.c:spi_dv_retrain()
is somewhat incorrect.

According to SPI-3 (spi3r14, actually), the flags DT, IU, and QAS can be
set in the following order of precedence (Table 55, p 155):
- DT
- IU
- QAS

This implies that for QAS DT and IU _have_ to be set. Vice versa for a
retrain we first should unset QAS, then IU (as QAS without IU is
invalid) and then DT.

However, the fallback routine in spi_dv_retrain first unsets IU, _then_
QAS, and ignoring DT entirely. This smells a bit fishy.
Any reasons for this?

Cheers,

Hannes
