Instead of spinning in a tight loop for up to 15 seconds, polling for device
readiness while it spins up, return reset completion just after PHY reports
"connect well" or 100ms connection timeout. If device was found, use callout
for checking device readiness with 100ms period up to full 31 second timeout.
This fixes system freeze for 5-10 seconds on drives hot plug-in.
- make SATA SIMs announce capabilities to handle SDB with Notification bit;
- make PMP driver honor this SIMs capability;
- make SATA XPT to negotiate and enable this feature for ATAPI devices.
This feature allows supporting SATA ATAPI devices to inform system about
some events happened, that may require attention. In my case this allows
LG GH22LS50 SATA DVR-RW drive to report tray open/close events. Events
reported to CAM in form of AC_SCSI_AEN async. Further they could be used
as a hints for checking device status and reporting media change to upper
layers, for example, via spoiling mechanism of GEOM.
of proper value. It caused bunch of "EMPTY CRPB" messages and potentially
may cause premature requests completion, which could cause data corruption.
For most cases it seems enough to just reread register to get proper value.
To protect against worse cases - erase processed queue entries with
impossible values and ignore them if problem still happen.
driver for CAM ATA subsystem. This driver supports same hardware as
atamarvell, ataadaptec and atamvsata drivers from ata(4), but provides
many additional features, such as NCQ, PMP, etc.
