Subject: [PATCH #upstream-fixes] libata: fix PMP initialization
Date: Thu, 15 Oct 2009 23:37:32 +0900	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4AD733AC.4020808@kernel.org> (raw)

Commit 842faa6c1a1d6faddf3377948e5cf214812c6c90 fixed error handling
during attach by not committing detected device class to dev->class
while attaching a new device.  However, this change missed the PMP
class check in the configuration loop causing a new PMP device to go
through ata_dev_configure() as if it were an ATA or ATAPI device.

As PMP device doesn't have a regular IDENTIFY data, this makes
ata_dev_configure() tries to configure a PMP device using an invalid
data.  For the most part, it wasn't too harmful and went unnoticed but
this ends up clearing dev->flags which may have ATA_DFLAG_AN set by
sata_pmp_attach().  This means that SATA_PMP_FEAT_NOTIFY ends up being
disabled on PMPs and on PMPs which honor the flag breaks hotplug
support.

This problem was discovered and reported by Ethan Hsiao.
