Subject: [PATCH 4/5] ata: libata-sata: Improve link_power_management_supported sysfs attribute
Date: Fri, 9 Jan 2026 15:39:54 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260109143949.331105-11-cassel@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260109143949.331105-7-cassel@kernel.org>
The link_power_management_supported sysfs attribute is currently set as
true even for ata ports that lack a .set_lpm() callback, e.g. dummy ports.
This is a bit silly, because while writing to the
link_power_management_policy sysfs attribute will make ata_scsi_lpm_store()
update ap->target_lpm_policy (thus sysfs will reflect the new value) and
call ata_port_schedule_eh() for the port, it is essentially a no-op.
This is because for a port without a .set_lpm() callback, once EH gets to
run, the ata_eh_link_set_lpm() will simply return, since the port does not
provide a .set_lpm() callback.
Thus, make sure that the link_power_management_supported sysfs attribute
is set to false for ports that lack a .set_lpm() callback. This way the
link_power_management_policy sysfs attribute will no longer be writable,
so we will no longer be misleading users to think that their sysfs write
actually does something.
