Subject: [PATCH #upstream-fixes] libata: don't normalize UNKNOWN to NONE after reset
Date: Tue, 08 Jan 2008 20:26:12 +0900	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <47835DD4.4000609@gmail.com> (raw)

After non-classifying reset, ehc->classes[] could contain
ATA_DEV_UNKNOWN which used to be normalized to ATA_DEV_NONE for
consistency.  However, this causes unfortunate side effect for drivers
which have non-classifying hardresets (e.g. sata_nv) by making
hardreset report ATA_DEV_NONE for non-classifying resets and thus
makes EH believe that the port is unoccupied and recovery can be
skipped.  The end result is that after a device is swapped with
another one, the new device isn't attached after the old one is
detached.

This patch makes ata_eh_reset() not normalize UNKNOWN to NONE after
non-classifying resets.  This fixes the above problem.  As UNKNOWN and
NONE are handled differently by only EH hotplug logic, this doesn't
cause other behavior changes.

Robert, missing new device was a bug in core EH logic not sata_nv.
BTW, I did quite a few hotplug tests with adma=0 and it works just
fine.  No lock up.
