This also removes the warning timeout on the taskqueues stalling as
I'm tired of getting ATA error reports for problems in other parts ;)
Misc cosmetic and comment cleanups now we are here.
This allows to attach to the children (ATA devices) even without a
driver being attached. This allows atapi-cam to do its work both
with and without the pure ATAPI driver being present.
ATA patches by /me
ATAPI-cam pathes by Thomas
o ATA is now fully newbus'd and split into modules.
This means that on a modern system you just load "atapci and ata"
to get the base support, and then one or more of the device
subdrivers "atadisk atapicd atapifd atapist ataraid".
All can be loaded/unloaded anytime, but for obvious reasons you
dont want to unload atadisk when you have mounted filesystems.
o The device identify part of the probe has been rewritten to fix
the problems with odd devices the old had, and to try to remove
so of the long delays some HW could provoke. Also probing is done
without the need for interrupts, making earlier probing possible.
o SATA devices can be hot inserted/removed and devices will be created/
removed in /dev accordingly.
NOTE: only supported on controllers that has this feature:
Promise and Silicon Image for now.
On other controllers the usual atacontrol detach/attach dance is
still needed.
o Support for "atomic" composite ATA requests used for RAID.
o ATA RAID support has been rewritten and and now supports these
metadata formats:
"Adaptec HostRAID"
"Highpoint V2 RocketRAID"
"Highpoint V3 RocketRAID"
"Intel MatrixRAID"
"Integrated Technology Express"
"LSILogic V2 MegaRAID"
"LSILogic V3 MegaRAID"
"Promise FastTrak"
"Silicon Image Medley"
"FreeBSD PseudoRAID"
o Update the ioctl API to match new RAID levels etc.
o Update atacontrol to know about the new RAID levels etc
NOTE: you need to recompile atacontrol with the new sys/ata.h,
make world will take care of that.
NOTE2: that rebuild is done differently from the old system as
the rebuild is now done piggybacked on read requests to the
array, so atacontrol simply starts a background "dd" to rebuild
the array.
o The reinit code has been worked over to be much more robust.
o The timeout code has been overhauled for races.
o Support of new chipsets.
o Lots of fixes for bugs found while doing the modulerization and
reviewing the old code.
Missing or changed features from current ATA:
o atapi-cd no longer has support for ATAPI changers. Todays its
much cheaper and alot faster to copy those CD images to disk
and serve them from there. Besides they dont seem to be made
anymore, maybe for that exact reason.
o ATA RAID can only read metadata from all the above metadata formats,
not write all of them (Promise and Highpoint V2 so far). This means
that arrays can be picked up from the BIOS, but they cannot be
created from FreeBSD. There is more to it than just the missing
write metadata support, those formats are not unique to a given
controller like Promise and Highpoint formats, instead they exist
for several types, and even worse, some controllers can have
different formats and its impossible to tell which one.
The outcome is that we cannot reliably create the metadata of those
formats and be sure the controller BIOS will understand it.
However write support is needed to update/fail/rebuild the arrays
properly so it sits fairly high on the TODO list.
o So far atapicam is not supported with these changes. When/if this
will change is up to the maintainer of atapi-cam so go there for
questions.

This also adds support for bigger disks on the controller I have access to,
and maybe others if I understood the adhoc methods used on those.
Those with more PC98 bigdrive controllers it is hereby invited to add/fix
support for those in geom_pc98.c and not using #ifdef PC98 all over the place.
mutexes instead.
This closes the last (known) race issues in ATA which should fix
the various hangs etc seen on heavy loaded systems.
Change from using timeout functions to using callout functions in
the timeout code. This together with above closes the race that could
happen if timeout and device interrupt occured simultaniously.
Also fix the possible recursion in ata_reinit() on very dodgy
devices that could take us down in the probe.
In places where we have long delays that doesn't depend on too accurate
timing, use ata_udelay() instead of DELAY() so we dont uselessly spin
the CPU if not nessesary;
Add missing untimeout that would get lost in handling of some
error situations, and caused what looked like random timeouts
afterwards when the timeout fired.
controllers (PDC203** PDC206**).
This also adds preliminary support for the Promise SX4/SX4000 but *only*
as a "normal" Promise ATA controller (ATA RAID's are supported though
but only RAID0, RAID1 and RAID0+1).
This cuts off yet another 5-8% of the command overhead on promise controllers,
making them the fastest we have ever had support for.
Work is now continuing to add support for this in ATA RAID, to accellerate
ATA RAID quite a bit on these controllers, and especially the SX4/SX4000
series as they have quite a few tricks in there..
This commit also adds a few fixes to the SATA code needed for proper support.
This adds support for cardbus ATA/SATA controllers. I get roughly the
same transfer speeds as on true PCI controllers. Nice to be able to add
a couble of "real" disks to a laptop :)
instead of taskqueue_swi. This shaves from 1 to 10% of the overhead.
Overhaul the locking once more, there was a few possible races that
are now closed.
This gives +10% performance on simple tests, so definitly worth it.
A few percent more could be had by not using M_ZERO'd alloc's, but
we then need to clear fields all over the place to be safe, and
that was deemed not worth the trouble (and it makes life dangerous).
of the leftovers from the old version that really doesn't work anymore.
Add a reset function for host-end of the ATA channel. This is needed
for the SiI3112 in order to whack it back to reality if a device
locks up the SATA interface (thereby preventing that we can reset the
device). The result is that ATA now recovers from the timeouts that
happens with the SiI3112A and more or less all disks based on old
PATA electronics with a Marvell PATA->SATA converter. This includes
lots of the popular SATA dongles and the WDC Raptor disks..
in connection with Marvell based SATA->PATA dongles.
The problem was caused by a combination of things working
together to make it hard to spot...
The ATA driver has always started the ATA command, then build
the SG list for DMA and then finally started the DMA engine.
While this is according to specs, it poses a potential
problem as some controllers apparently do not allow for unlimitted
time between starting the ATA command and starting the DMA engine.
At about the same time as ATAng was committed there were lots
of other changes applied, some of which was locking in parts
that causes the busdma load functions to take significantly
longer to load the SG list.
This pushed the time spent between starting the ATA command and
starting the DMA engine over the hill for some controllers
(especially the Silicon Image DS3112a) and caused what looked
like lost interrupts.
The solution is to get all the SG list work or rather all
busdma related stuff done before we even try to start anything.
This has the nice side effect of seperating busdma out the
way it should be, so the working of the ATA machinery is not
cluttered up with busdma droppings, making the code easier
to read and understand.
Restructure the way ATA/ATAPI commands are processed, use a common
ata_request structure for both. This centralises the way requests
are handled so locking is much easier to handle.
The driver is now layered much more cleanly to seperate the lowlevel
HW access so it can be tailored to specific controllers without touching
the upper layers. This is needed to support some of the newer
semi-intelligent ATA controllers showing up.
The top level drivers (disk, ATAPI devices) are more or less still
the same with just corrections to use the new interface.
Pull ATA out from under Gaint now that locking can be done in a sane way.
Add support for a the National Geode SC1100. Thanks to Soekris engineering
for sponsoring a Soekris 4801 to make this support.
Fixed alot of small bugs in the chipset code for various chips now
we are around in that corner anyways.
Clean up the DMA interface too much unneeded stuff crept in with
the busdma code back when.
Modify the ATA_IN* / ATA_OUT* macros so that resource and offset
are gotten from a table. That allows for new chipsets that doesn't
nessesarily have things ordered the good old way. This also removes
the need for the wierd PC98 resource functions.
Tested on: i386, PC98, Alpha, Sparc64
This moves all chipset specific code to a new file 'ata-chipset.c'.
Extensive use of tables and pointers to avoid having the same switch
on chipset type in several places, and to allow substituting various
functions for different HW arch needs.
Added PIO mode setup and all DMA modes.
Support for all known SiS chipsets. Thanks to Christoph Kukulies for
sponsoring a nice ASUS P4S8X SiS648 based board for this work!
Tested on: i386, PC98, alpha and sparc64
Properly handle the newer Promise SuperSwap 1000 enclosures.
Print out what kind of enclosure was found in the probe.
Misc cleanups in the enclosure handling code.

This mostly consists of functionality to serialize accesses to
the two ATA channels (which can also be used to "fix" certain
PCI based controllers).
Add support for Acard controllers.
Enable the ATA driver in PC98 GENERIC, and add device hints.
Update man page with latest support.
The PC98 core team has kindly provided me with a PC98
machine that made this all possible, thanks to all that
contributed to that effort, without that this would
probably newer have been possible..

Overhaul of the attach/detach code and structures, there were some nasty
bugs in the old implementation. This made it possible to collapse the
ATA/ATAPI device control structures into one generic structure.
A note here, the kernel is NOT ready for detach of active devices,
it fails all over in random places, but for inactive devices it works.
However for ATA RAID this works, since the RAID abstration layer
insulates the buggy^H^H^H^H^H^Hfragile device subsystem from the
physical disks.
Proberly detect the RAID's from the BIOS, and mark critical RAID1
arrays as such, but continue if there is enough of the mirror left
to do so.
Properly fail arrays on a live system. For RAID0 that means return EIO,
and for RAID1 it means continue on the still working part of the mirror
if possible, else return EIO.
If the state changes, log this to the console.
Allow for Promise & Highpoint controllers/arrays to coexist on the
same machine. It is not possible to distribute arrays over different
makes of controllers though.
If Promise SuperSwap enclosures are used, signal disk state on the
status LED on the front.
Misc fixes that I had lying around for various minor bugs.

Add tagged queueing support for new IBM drives.
Add support for Yet Another Promise ATA 100 chip.
Flush disk cache on close.
Dont flush the disk cache on BIO_ORDERED anymore.
Cleanup the tests for DMA on ATAPI devices.
Allow to share ALL irq's even the std irg 14 & 15.
Fix calculation bug in end of media code on CD's.
Add REZERO on opening a CDR/CDRW.
Cleanup ataioctl a bit.
see atacontrol(8) for more.
Also the ATA_ENABLE_ATAPI_DMA, ATA_ENABLE_WC and ATA_ENABLE_TAGS
options are gone, use the tuneables listed in ata.4 instead from
the loader (this makes it possible to switch off DMA before the
driver has to touch the devices on broken hardware).
Proberly fail outstanding bio requests on devices that are detached.
This makes it possible to change between disk/cdrom/dvd/whathaveyou
in a notebook, just by suspending it, changing the device in the
bay (or what you model calls it), unsuspend and the ATA driver
will figure out what disappeared and properly fail those, and attach
any new devices found.
This is due to a bug that has been in there since Warneer did the
PCCARD stuff, the altioaddr is not offset 8 its offset 14 from
the base address.
Also only probe the master device, no known PCCARD ATA thingies
has a slave AFAIK..
IBM's DPTA and DTLA series of drives (no other disk vendors are known
to support this) on non-Promise controllers (promise controllers lockup
when given the tagged queuing specific commands).
It gives especially master/slave comboes about 5% better performance.
Add support for the Promise ATA100 OEM chip (pdc20265)
Add support for the Cyrix 5530
Change the way status is read from the drives, use the alternate
status reg when possible.
Better support for DEVFS, the acdXtY devices are now created when needed.
Lots of little cleanups.
Promise Ultra100 / Fasttrak100
HighPoint HPT370 controllers (fx Abit KA7-100 onboard ctrl, Abit HotRod 100)
Intel ICH2 (Intel 815E based motherboards)
So far I can read >90MB/s on the Promise and the HPT370.
I can write >64MB/s on the promise and >50MB/s on the HPT370 so it seems
writing is still done in ATA66 mode :(
The ICH2 support is untested as of yet...
Call intr_teardown on detach.
Always add non masterdevice from unit 2 upwards.
Update to the pccard code, at least some cards are now working,
more testing to follow.
was needed to make attach/detach of devices work, which is
needed for the PCCARD support.
(PCCARD support is still not working though, more to come on that)
Support the CMD646 chip which is used on many alphas, sadly only
in WDMA2 mode, as the silicon is broken beyond belief for UDMA modes.
Lots of cosmetic fixes here and there.
Sorry for the size of this megapatchfromhell but it was not
possible otherwise...
newbus patches based on work from: dfr (Doug Rabson)
Try to support older systems reporting irq0 for the first channels.
Support sharing of the std interrupts (says peter :) )
Dont use READ_CD on normal data reads (2048 bytes), too many old drives
doesn't support this command even if the std says "shall" :(, but still
use READ_CD on all other blocksizes.
Add the geometry to the ad probe, its still usefull.
Dont be so verbose in the probe, only ONE line printed now, to get more
info boot verbose. Centralise most printf's in ata-all & ata-dma to use
the ata_printf function, it saves alot of codelines.
Repeat the identify command if drive fails the first.
Protect the timeout functions with splbio.
Dont update the transfer details before we are sure the transfer
succeded, this way they are proberly retried on errors.
Move the handling of next_writeable to userland.
Use the READ_CD command to read CD's. That enables us to read _anything_
via the normal read/write interface. This kindof obsoletes the READAUDIO
ioctl, but we keep that for now.
correctly on both master and slave.
Smash together the ata_params & atapi_params structures as they
are more or less equal anyways.
Get rid of the last SYSINIT's in here.
Prober support for the VIA 82C686, I finally got the right datasheet.
Get rid of atapi_wait, merge it into ata_wait.
Avoid a couple of races by using asleep instead of tsleep.
Always use 16bit transfers on ISA systems.
Clear up the atapi_read/write functions.
main component in the southbridge chip to determine which VIA chip
we are dealing with.
Try to enable DMA on generic controllers that say they has the
capability, instead of relying on the BIOS to have set it up.
Try to use a 32bit mask on the IO addresses, this fixes the alpha
and hopefully doesn't break on any i386 machines.
Try to enable both read & write cache on disks, they should be as
default, but better be sure..
Fix a bug which could cause panics in ad/atapi-interrupt.
Add support for UDMA66 on Promise Ultra/Fasttrak controllers.
Get rid of ATA_IGNORE_INTR, and introduce ATA_WAIT_INTR instead.
Add a delay in the dump routine in ata-disk.c, some controllers
seem to need this. Also dont use the timeout watchdog when dumping.
Disable DMA on ATAPI devices as default, add option ATA_ENABLE_ATAPI_DMA
for those that has HW that works.
Add support for some not-up-to-spec ATAPI devices that returns data
together with completition status on data moving cmd's.
their HotRod controller and on SIIG PCI ultra DMA controller. These
changes also made lots of the Promise code go away, its all much more
generic this way.
Get rid of atapi_immed_cmd, instead use the queue to move atapi commands
from interrupt context if nessesary, the entire atapi layer has
gotten an overhaul.
Lots of fixes to utililize the new features in subr_disk.c etc, and
get rid of the last biots of softc arrays in the drivers, the
only one left is atadevices which cannot easily go away (yet).
Use our own malloc names, its a lot easier to track memory usage this way.
General cleanup overall.
It been awhile since the last major update, as a benefit there
are some cool things in this one (and new bugs probably :) )...
The ATA driver has grown "real" timeout support for all devices.
This means that it should be possible to get in contact with
(especially) lost ATAPI devices. It also means that the ATA
driver is now usable on notebooks as it will DTRT on resume.
An experimental hack at utilizing the Promise66's at UDMA66 is
in there, but I cant test it. If someone feels like sending
me one, give me a ping.
The ATAPI DMA enableling scheme has been changed, also better DMA
support for the Aladdin chipset has been implemented for ATAPI
devices. Note that the Aladdin apparently only can do DMA reads
on ATAPI devices, and the Promise cant do ATAPI DMA at all.
I have seen problems on some ATAPI devices that should be able
to run in DMA mode, so if you encounter problems with hanging
atapi devices during the probe, or during access, disable DMA
in atapi-all.c, and let me know. It might be nessesary to do this
via a "white list" for known good devices...
The ATAPI CDROM driver can now use eject/close without hanging and
the bug that caused reading beyond the end of a CD has been fixed.
Media change is also handled proberly. DVD drives are identified
and are usable as CDROM devices at least, I dont have the HW to
test this further, see above :).
The ATAPI tape driver has gotten some support for using the DSC
method for not blocking the IDE channel during read/write when
the device has full buffers. It knows about the OnStream DI-30
device, support is not completed yet, but it can function as a
primitive backup medium, without filemarks, and without bad media
handeling. This is because the OnStream device doesn't handle this
(like everybody else) in HW. It also now supports getting/setting
the record position on devices that supports it.
Some rather major cleanups and rearrangements as well (cvs -b diff
is your freind). I'm closing in on declaring this for beta code,
most of the infrastruture is in place by now.
As usual USE AT YOUR OWN RISK!!, this is still alpha level code.
This driver can hose your disk real bad if anything goes wrong, but
now you have been warned :)
But please tell me how it works for you!
Enjoy!
