libata that supported the HDIO_DRIVE_TASKFILE command in which kernel ?
Thanks

libata has never supported HDIO_DRIVE_TASKFILE.
You want to use SG_IO.

&& it won't. The TASKFILE interface is pretty broken and had several
behavior idiosynchronicities (Documentataion/ioctl/hdio.txt). IDE ->
libata transition is pretty good chance to kill it.
