Hi Tejun,
With regard to make use of the standard ahci_platform and recent Hans'
PHY works, the original version of the driver was an ahci_platform
driver. Unfortunately, the APM X-Gene SATA controller is more
complicate than an standard AHCI controller. In order to make it works
properly, the follow additional programming sequences are required:
1. There are a number of errata that require workaround. Some can be
fixed by adding broken flags while others are better to just wrap
around the existent libahci library routines and not overly polluting
the libahci routines.
2. There are additional controller programming sequences to configure.
2a. By default, RAM are powered down and require brought out of shutdown.
2b. The controller has an additional corresponding PHY part that needs
to be programmed after PHY configuration.
2c. The controller requires extra programming sequence for the
hardreset due to errata.
2d. For the IO flush, it requires additional memory resources.
3. With the current AHCI platform data handing and ARM64 arch support,
if I were to add custom AHCI platform data routine, I would need
equivalent functions and that would make the ARCH support having
knowledge of the SATA code which I don't want. Also, the DTS
processing/scanning in ARCH64 is NULL for platform data and would have
make X-Gene to have its own version which I also don't want.
