- Implement proper combined mode decoding for Intel controllers to properly
identify SATA and PATA channels and associate ATA channels with SATA ports.
This fixes wrong reporting and in some cases hard resets to wrong SATA ports.
- Improve SATA registers support to handle hot-plug events and potentially
interface errors. For ICH5/6300ESB chipsets these registers accessible via
PCI config space. For later ones they may be accessible via PCI BAR(5).
- For controllers not generating interrupts on hot-plug events, implement
periodic status polling. Use it to detect hot-plug on Intel and VIA
controllers. Same probably could also be used for Serverworks and SIS.
Introduce ATA_CAM kernel option, turning ata(4) controller drivers into
cam(4) interface modules. When enabled, this options deprecates all ata(4)
peripheral drivers (ad, acd, ...) and interfaces and allows cam(4) drivers
(ada, cd, ...) and interfaces to be natively used instead.
As side effect of this, ata(4) mode setting code was completely rewritten
to make controller API more strict and permit above change. While doing
this, SATA revision was separated from PATA mode. It allows DMA-incapable
SATA devices to operate and makes hw.ata.atapi_dma tunable work again.
Also allow ata(4) controller drivers (except some specific or broken ones)
to handle larger data transfers. Previous constraint of 64K was artificial
and is not really required by PCI ATA BM specification or hardware.

and Marvell handled. Instead of trying to attach two different drivers to
single device, wrapping each call, make one of them (atajmicron, atamarvell)
attach do device solely, but create child device for AHCI driver,
passing it all required resources. It is quite easy, as none of
resources are shared, except IRQ.
As result, it:
- makes drivers operation more independent and straitforward,
- allows to use new ahci(4) driver with such devices, adding support for
new features, such as PMP and NCQ, same time keeping legacy PATA support,
- will allow to just drop old ataahci driver, when it's time come.
- Remove most of direct relations between ATA(4) peripherial and controller
levels. It makes logic more transparent and is a mandatory step to wrap
ATA(4) controller level into ATA-native CAM SIM.
- Tune AHCI and SATA2 SiI drivers memory allocation a bit to allow bigger
I/O transaction sizes without additional cost.
MAXPHYS. Current ataahci driver memory allocation scheme includes only
64 items in DMA S/G table, and so not guarantied to support transactions
with more then 252K data.

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.
Add ch_suspend/ch_resume methods for PCI controllers and implement them
for AHCI. Refactor AHCI channel initialization according to it.
Fix Port Multipliers operation. It is far from perfect yet, but works now.
Tested with JMicron JMB363 AHCI + SiI 3726 PMP pair.
Previous version was also tested with SiI 4726 PMP.

bit almost simultaneously, before we will read it, but at least JMicron JMB363
don't. Ignore timeout errors to keep old behavior when error there was
impossible.
For me this fixes timeout errors on the first command after channel attach
or reinit. Boot in my case is not affected, as there is much time passing
between reset and next command giving reset time to complete.
done in other places. Until we have no support for command queueing we have
no any benefit from FBS, while enabling it only here somehow leads to
"port not ready" errors on Intel 63XXESB2 controller.

ATA specification declares minimal reset time of 5us. SATA keeps it, but
requires devices to handle commands transmitted even one by one without
any gap.
join allocate() and dmainit() atapci subdriver's channel initialization
methods into single ch_attach() method.
As opposite to ch_attach() add new ch_detach() method to deallocate/disable
channel.
to not allocate them after the recent ata channels enumeration changes.
It allows to save some resources, not bother user with unexisting hardware
and not check unimplemented ports status on every interrupt.
- specification claims that 1 second is just a maximum controller reset time;
implement controller reset properly to save almost 1 second of boot, and
about half second of resume time;
- enable channel interrupts only after channel status reset to fix duplicate
device creation on resume due to unwanted device connection event;
- as described in specification, wait for disk ready status after channel
power-up; it is not so important when disk already touched by BIOS, but
solves device not ready problems on resume and probably some other cases.
- uncomment channel stop/start on soft-reset as it is declared mandatory by
specification; it was commented due to some random drive detection problems
on VIA and JMicron controllers, but I hope it is fixed by previous point.
storage class. This check was lost. It is not important for the most cases,
but as it was reported on current@, it does important for sis driver and
surely inportant for AHCI driver. So restore it there.

If you just config KERNEL as usual there should be no apparent changes, you'll get all chipset support code compiled in.
However there is now a way to only compile in code for chipsets needed on a pr vendor basis. ATA now has the following "device" entries:
atacore: ATA core functionality, always needed for any ATA setup
atacard: CARDBUS support
atacbus: PC98 cbus support
ataisa: ISA bus support
atapci: PCI bus support only generic chipset support.
ataahci: AHCI support, also pulled in by some vendor modules.
ataacard, ataacerlabs, ataadaptec, ataamd, ataati, atacenatek, atacypress, atacyrix, atahighpoint, ataintel, ataite, atajmicron, atamarvell, atamicron, atanational, atanetcell, atanvidia, atapromise, ataserverworks, atasiliconimage, atasis, atavia; Vendor support, ie atavia for VIA chipsets
atadisk: ATA disk driver
ataraid: ATA softraid driver
atapicd: ATAPI cd/dvd driver
atapifd: ATAPI floppy/flashdisk driver
atapist: ATAPI tape driver
atausb: ATA<>USB bridge
atapicam: ATA<>CAM bridge
This makes it possible to config a kernel with just VIA chipset support by having the following ATA lines in the kernel config file:
device atacore
device atapci
device atavia
And then you need the atadisk, atapicd etc lines in there just as usual.
If you use ATA as modules loaded at boot there is few changes except the rename of the "ata" module to "atacore", things looks just as usual.
However under atapci you now have a whole bunch of vendor specific drivers, that you can kldload individually depending on you needs. Drivers have the same names as used in the kernel config explained above.
