[PATCH v4 0/3] libata-eh cleanups

[PATCH v4 0/3] libata-eh cleanups

[Damien Le Moal]

3 patches to cleanup libata-eh code and its documentation.

Changes in patch 2 propagate to libsas.

No functional changes are introduced.

Changes from v3:
 - Move the use of the ATA_LFLAG_NO_HRST link flag in
   ata_std_error_handler() from patch 2 to patch 1.
 - Reduce number of changes in ata_eh_reset() in patch 2 using local
   variables.
 - Correct typos in patch 2 commit message and added suggested-by tag
 - Added review tag in patch 3

Changes from v2:
 - Removed former patch 1 "Make ata_eh_followup_srst_needed() return a
   bool" (sent it as a standalone patch)
 - Addressed Niklas'comment on patch 1
 - Added patch 2
 - Improved the description of reset methods in patch 3

Changes from v1:
 - Correct compilation error when CONFIG_ATA_SFF is not enabled by
   defining a stub for sata_sff_hardreset().

[PATCH v4 1/3] ata: libata-eh: Remove ata_do_eh()

[Damien Le Moal]

The only reason for ata_do_eh() to exist is that the two caller sites,
ata_std_error_handler() and ata_sff_error_handler() may pass it a
NULL hardreset operation so that the built-in (generic) hardreset
operation for a driver is ignored if the adapter SCR access is not
available.

However, ata_std_error_handler() and ata_sff_error_handler()
modifications of the hardreset port operation can easily be combined as
they are mutually exclusive. That is, a driver using sata_std_hardreset()
as its hardreset operation cannot use sata_sff_hardreset() and
vice-versa.

With this observation, ata_do_eh() can be removed and its code moved to
ata_std_error_handler(). The condition used to ignore the built-in
hardreset port operation is modified to be the one that was used in
ata_sff_error_handler(). This requires defining a stub for the function
sata_sff_hardreset() to avoid compilation errors when CONFIG_ATA_SFF is
not enabled. Furthermore, instead of modifying the local hardreset
operation definition, set the ATA_LFLAG_NO_HRST link flag to prevent
the use of built-in hardreset methods for ports without a valid scr_read
function. This flag is checked in ata_eh_reset() and if set, the
hardreset method is ignored.

This change simplifies ata_sff_error_handler() as this function now only
needs to call ata_std_error_handler().

No functional changes.

[PATCH v4 2/3] ata: libata-eh: Simplify reset operation management

[Damien Le Moal]

Introduce struct ata_reset_operations to aggregate in a single structure
the definitions of the 4 reset methods (prereset, softreset, hardreset
and postreset) for a port. This new structure is used in struct ata_port
to define the reset methods for a regular port (reset field) and for a
port-multiplier port (pmp_reset field). A pointer to either of these
fields replaces the 4 reset method arguments passed to ata_eh_recover()
and ata_eh_reset().

The definition of the reset methods for all drivers is changed to use
the reset and pmp_reset fields in struct ata_port_operations.

A large number of files is modifed, but no functional changes are
introduced.

I think you need to add .reset.hardreset = NULL, because pata_parport_port_ops
inherits ata_sff_port_ops, which does set hardreset, so I think this line will
clear the pointer.

Rest looks good to me:

Martin,

is it okay if we take this patch via the libata tree?

If so, would it be possible to get an Acked-by?

[PATCH v4 3/3] Documentation: driver-api: Update libata error handler information

[Damien Le Moal]

Update ``->error_handler()`` section of the libata documentation file
Documentation/driver-api/libata.rst to remove the reference to the
function ata_do_eh() as that function was removed. The reference to the
function ata_bmdma_drive_eh() is also removed as that function does not
exist at all. And while at it, cleanup the description of the various
reset operations using a bullet list.
