modularize it so that new transports can be created.
Add a transport for SATA
Add a periph+protocol layer for ATA
Add a driver for AHCI-compliant hardware.
Add a maxio field to CAM so that drivers can advertise their max
I/O capability. Modify various drivers so that they are insulated
from the value of MAXPHYS.
The new ATA/SATA code supports AHCI-compliant hardware, and will override
the classic ATA driver if it is loaded as a module at boot time or compiled
into the kernel. The stack now support NCQ (tagged queueing) for increased
performance on modern SATA drives. It also supports port multipliers.
ATA drives are accessed via 'ada' device nodes. ATAPI drives are
accessed via 'cd' device nodes. They can all be enumerated and manipulated
via camcontrol, just like SCSI drives. SCSI commands are not translated to
their ATA equivalents; ATA native commands are used throughout the entire
stack, including camcontrol. See the camcontrol manpage for further
details. Testing this code may require that you update your fstab, and
possibly modify your BIOS to enable AHCI functionality, if available.
This code is very experimental at the moment. The userland ABI/API has
changed, so applications will need to be recompiled. It may change
further in the near future. The 'ada' device name may also change as
more infrastructure is completed in this project. The goal is to
eventually put all CAM busses and devices until newbus, allowing for
interesting topology and management options.
Few functional changes will be seen with existing SCSI/SAS/FC drivers,
though the userland ABI has still changed. In the future, transports
specific modules for SAS and FC may appear in order to better support
the topologies and capabilities of these technologies.
The modularization of CAM and the addition of the ATA/SATA modules is
meant to break CAM out of the mold of being specific to SCSI, letting it
grow to be a framework for arbitrary transports and protocols. It also
allows drivers to be written to support discrete hardware without
jeopardizing the stability of non-related hardware. While only an AHCI
driver is provided now, a Silicon Image driver is also in the works.
Drivers for ICH1-4, ICH5-6, PIIX, classic IDE, and any other hardware
is possible and encouraged. Help with new transports is also encouraged.

got introduced to provide backward compatibility for extended
partitions, but it ended up not being used because it didn't work
as expected. Since there are no consumers of the ioctl and the
implementation is broken, the best fix is to remove the code
entirely.

- Use chipset-specific data in the acard and promise chipsets rather than
changing the ivars of ATA PCI devices. ivars are reserved for use by the
parent bus driver and are _not_ available for use by devices directly.
This fixes a panic during sysctl -a with certain Promise controllers with
ACPI enabled.

- Generate fake channel interrupts even if channel busy with previous
request to let it finish. Without this, dumping requests were just queued
and never processed.
- Drop pre-dump requests queue on dumping. ATA code, working in dumping
(interruptless) mode, unable to handle long request queue. Actually, to get
coherent dump we anyway should do as few unrelated actions as possible.
Feature is controlled by hint.ata.X.pm_level tunable:
0 - PM disabled, old behaviour, default.
1 - device is allowed to initiate PM state change, host is passive.
2 - host initiates PARTIAL state transition every time port is idle.
3 - host initiates SLUMBER state transition every time port is idle.
PARTIAL state has up to 100us (50us for me) wakeup latency, but for my
ICH8M saves 0.5W of power per drive. SLUMBER state has up to 10ms (3.5ms
for me) wakeup latency, but saves 0.8W of power.
Modes 2 and 3 are implemented only for AHCI driver now.
Interface power management is incompatible with device presence detection
(host receives no signal from drive, so unable to monitor it), so later is
disabled when PM is used.
controllers may be configured as legacy IDE mode by modifying subclass and
progif without actually changing PCI device IDs. Instead of complicating
code, we always force AHCI mode while probing. Also we restore AHCI mode
while resuming per ATI/AMD register programming/requirement guides.
- Fix SB700/800 "combined" mode. Unlike SB600, this PATA controller can
combine two SATA ports and emulate one PATA channel as primary or secondary
depending on BIOS configuration. When the combined mode is disabled, this
channel disappears and it works just like SB600 PATA controller, however.
- Add more PCI device IDs for SB700/800 and adjust device descriptions.
SB800 shares the same PCI device IDs and added two more SATA IDs.

Unconditional queueing of ata_completed() calls can lead to deadlock if
due to timeout ata_reinit() was called at the same thread by previous

ata_completed() may initiate ata_reinit() on error, that may lead to drives
attach or detach. Attach and detach are sending requests to drives and sleep
waiting for results. But ata_finish() can be called directly from
interrupt handler where sleeping is prohibited, so we must break this chain
somewhere. This place seems to fit best.
