The driver used the channel not the device number for deciding where to
load some timing parameters. Also change so that we clear the UDMA field
as the old driver did. Not believed neccessary but does no harm.

This avoids allocating DMA buffers if not needed but at the moment is
mostly just a neatness item.

It was always set to ata_port_disable().  Removed the hook, and replaced
the very few ap-&gt;ops-&gt;port_disable() callsites with direct calls to
ata_port_disable().

* -&gt;irq_ack() is redundant to what the irq handler already
  performs... chk-status + irq-clear.  Furthermore, it is only
  called in one place, when screaming-irq-debugging is enabled,
  so we don't want to bother with a hook just for that.

* ata_dummy_irq_on() is only ever used in drivers that have
  no callpath reaching -&gt;irq_on().  Remove .irq_on hook from
  those drivers, and the now-unused ata_dummy_irq_on()

<title>PCI: Change all drivers to use pci_device-&gt;revision</title>

Instead of all drivers reading pci config space to get the revision
ID, they can now use the pci_device-&gt;revision member.

This exposes some issues where drivers where reading a word or a dword
for the revision number, and adding useless error-handling around the
read. Some drivers even just read it for no purpose of all.

In devices where the revision ID is being copied over and used in what
appears to be the equivalent of hotpath, I have left the copy code
and the cached copy as not to influence the driver's performance.

Compile tested with make all{yes,mod}config on x86_64 and i386.

The ATA_UDMAx masks are self-documenting, and far better than manually
writing in the hex mask.

Note that pata_it8213 mask differed from the comment.  Added a FIXME there.

<title>libata: clean up SFF init mess</title>
<updated>2007-05-11T22:09:18+00:00</updated>

<name>Tejun Heo</name>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.toradex.cn/cgit/linux-toradex.git/commit/?id=1626aeb881236c8cb022b5e4ca594146a951d669'/>
<id>1626aeb881236c8cb022b5e4ca594146a951d669</id>
<content type='text'>
The intention of using port_mask in SFF init helpers was to eventually
support exoctic configurations such as combination of legacy and
native port on the same controller.  This never became actually
necessary and the related code always has been subtly broken one way
or the other.  Now that new init model is in place, there is no reason
to make common helpers capable of handling all corner cases.  Exotic
cases can simply dealt within LLDs as necessary.

This patch removes port_mask handling in SFF init helpers.  SFF init
helpers don't take n_ports argument and interpret it into port_mask
anymore.  All information is carried via port_info.  n_ports argument
is dropped and always two ports are allocated.  LLD can tell SFF to
skip certain port by marking it dummy.  Note that SFF code has been
treating unuvailable ports this way for a long time until recent
breakage fix from Linus and is consistent with how other drivers
handle with unavailable ports.

This fixes 1-port legacy host handling still broken after the recent
native mode fix and simplifies SFF init logic.  The following changes
are made...

* ata_pci_init_native_host() and ata_init_legacy_host() both now try
  to initialized whatever they can and mark failed ports dummy.  They
  return 0 if any port is successfully initialized.

* ata_pci_prepare_native_host() and ata_pci_init_one() now doesn't
  take n_ports argument.  All info should be specified via port_info
  array.  Always two ports are allocated.

* ata_pci_init_bmdma() exported to be used by LLDs in exotic cases.

* port_info handling in all LLDs are standardized - all port_info
  arrays are const stack variable named ppi.  Unless the second port
  is different from the first, its port_info is specified as NULL
  (tells libata that it's identical to the last non-NULL port_info).

* pata_hpt37x/hpt3x2n: don't modify static variable directly.  Make an
  on-stack copy instead as ata_piix does.

* pata_uli: It has 4 ports instead of 2.  Don't use
  ata_pci_prepare_native_host().  Allocate the host explicitly and use
  init helpers.  It's simple enough.
