commit 66a7cbc303f4d28f201529b06061944d51ab530c upstream.

Samsung pci-e SSDs on macbooks failed miserably on NCQ commands, so
67809f85d31e ("ahci: disable NCQ on Samsung pci-e SSDs on macbooks")
disabled NCQ on them.  It turns out that NCQ is fine as long as MSI is
not used, so let's turn off MSI and leave NCQ on.

commit 6d8ca28fa688a9354bc9fbc935bdaeb3651b6677 upstream.

Currently, ata_sff_softreset is skipped for controllers with no ctl port.
But that also skips ata_sff_dev_classify required for device detection.
This means that libata is currently broken on controllers with no ctl port.

No device connected:

<id>dd1e981a08ca5da000d7fb2c384a6b02e9b5b08b</id>

commit 37017ac6849e772e67dd187ba2fbd056c4afa533 upstream.

The Broadcom OSB4 IDE Controller (vendor and device IDs: 1166:0211)
does not support 64-KB DMA transfers.
Whenever a 64-KB DMA transfer is attempted,
the transfer fails and messages similar to the following
are written to the console log:

   [ 2431.851125] sr 0:0:0:0: [sr0] Unhandled sense code
   [ 2431.851139] sr 0:0:0:0: [sr0]  Result: hostbyte=DID_OK driverbyte=DRIVER_SENSE

   [ 2431.851210] end_request: I/O error, dev sr0, sector 121808

When the libata and pata_serverworks modules
are recompiled with ATA_DEBUG and ATA_VERBOSE_DEBUG defined in libata.h,
the 64-KB transfer size in the scatter-gather list can be seen
in the console log:

lspci shows that the driver used for the Broadcom OSB4 IDE Controller is
pata_serverworks:

   00:0f.1 IDE interface: Broadcom OSB4 IDE Controller (prog-if 8e [Master SecP SecO PriP])
           Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 64
           [virtual] Memory at 000001f0 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=8]
           [virtual] Memory at 000003f0 (type 3, non-prefetchable) [size=1]
           I/O ports at 0170 [size=8]
           I/O ports at 0374 [size=4]
           I/O ports at 1440 [size=16]
           Kernel driver in use: pata_serverworks

The pata_serverworks driver supports five distinct device IDs,
one being the OSB4 and the other four belonging to the CSB series.
The CSB series appears to support 64-KB DMA transfers,
as tests on a machine with an SAI2 motherboard
containing a Broadcom CSB5 IDE Controller (vendor and device IDs: 1166:0212)
showed no problems with 64-KB DMA transfers.

This problem was first discovered when attempting to install openSUSE
from a DVD on a machine with an STL2 motherboard.
Using the pata_serverworks module,
older releases of openSUSE will not install at all due to the timeouts.
Releases of openSUSE prior to 11.3 can be installed by disabling
the pata_serverworks module using the brokenmodules boot parameter,
which causes the serverworks module to be used instead.
Recent releases of openSUSE (12.2 and later) include better error recovery and
will install, though very slowly.
On all openSUSE releases, the problem can be recreated
on a machine containing a Broadcom OSB4 IDE Controller
by mounting an install DVD and running a command similar to the following:

   find /mnt -type f -print | xargs cat &gt; /dev/null

The patch below corrects the problem.
Similar to the other ATA drivers that do not support 64-KB DMA transfers,
the patch changes the ata_port_operations qc_prep vector to point to a routine
that breaks any 64-KB segment into two 32-KB segments and
changes the scsi_host_template sg_tablesize element to reduce by half
the number of scatter/gather elements allowed.
These two changes affect only the OSB4.

lspci shows that the driver used for the Broadcom OSB4 IDE Controller is
pata_serverworks:

   00:0f.1 IDE interface: Broadcom OSB4 IDE Controller (prog-if 8e [Master SecP SecO PriP])
           Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 64
           [virtual] Memory at 000001f0 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=8]
           [virtual] Memory at 000003f0 (type 3, non-prefetchable) [size=1]
           I/O ports at 0170 [size=8]
           I/O ports at 0374 [size=4]
           I/O ports at 1440 [size=16]
           Kernel driver in use: pata_serverworks

The pata_serverworks driver supports five distinct device IDs,
one being the OSB4 and the other four belonging to the CSB series.
The CSB series appears to support 64-KB DMA transfers,
as tests on a machine with an SAI2 motherboard
containing a Broadcom CSB5 IDE Controller (vendor and device IDs: 1166:0212)
showed no problems with 64-KB DMA transfers.

This problem was first discovered when attempting to install openSUSE
from a DVD on a machine with an STL2 motherboard.
Using the pata_serverworks module,
older releases of openSUSE will not install at all due to the timeouts.
Releases of openSUSE prior to 11.3 can be installed by disabling
the pata_serverworks module using the brokenmodules boot parameter,
which causes the serverworks module to be used instead.
Recent releases of openSUSE (12.2 and later) include better error recovery and
will install, though very slowly.
On all openSUSE releases, the problem can be recreated
on a machine containing a Broadcom OSB4 IDE Controller
by mounting an install DVD and running a command similar to the following:

   find /mnt -type f -print | xargs cat &gt; /dev/null

The patch below corrects the problem.
Similar to the other ATA drivers that do not support 64-KB DMA transfers,
the patch changes the ata_port_operations qc_prep vector to point to a routine
that breaks any 64-KB segment into two 32-KB segments and
changes the scsi_host_template sg_tablesize element to reduce by half
the number of scatter/gather elements allowed.
These two changes affect only the OSB4.

commit 1a112d10f03e83fb3a2fdc4c9165865dec8a3ca6 upstream.

1871ee134b73 ("libata: support the ata host which implements a queue

ata_qc_new() to determine the number of tags supported by the host;
unfortunately, SAS controllers doing SATA don't initialize -&gt;scsi_host

Fix it by introducing ata_host-&gt;n_tags which is initialized to
ATA_MAX_QUEUE - 1 in ata_host_init() for SAS controllers and set to
scsi_host_template-&gt;can_queue in ata_host_register() for !SAS ones.
As SAS hosts are never registered, this will give them the same
ATA_MAX_QUEUE - 1 as before.  Note that we can't use
scsi_host-&gt;can_queue directly for SAS hosts anyway as they can go
higher than the libata maximum.

unfortunately, SAS controllers doing SATA don't initialize -&gt;scsi_host
leading to the following oops.

Fix it by introducing ata_host-&gt;n_tags which is initialized to
ATA_MAX_QUEUE - 1 in ata_host_init() for SAS controllers and set to
scsi_host_template-&gt;can_queue in ata_host_register() for !SAS ones.
As SAS hosts are never registered, this will give them the same
ATA_MAX_QUEUE - 1 as before.  Note that we can't use
scsi_host-&gt;can_queue directly for SAS hosts anyway as they can go
higher than the libata maximum.
