- If UDMA 2 is failing try UDMA 1 first, it helps in some cases
- downgrade if we get an error in the first 4000 xfers, or if we get
4 errors in 4000 xfers if the first 4000 went without troubles.
While I'm there commit a local change I have since some time to get my CD
probed: issue a "blanck" IDENTIFY before the one used to detect slave ghosts,
with my drive the first IDENTIFY following a controller reset fails with an
aborted command ...
DRIVE_OLD, DRIVE_ATA or DRIVE_ATAPI based on register signatures.
The attach routine will issue a IDENTIFY command for ATA/ATAPI disk,
to detect flase matches by the probe routine.
probe/attach should now be fully compliant with ata-4/ata-5. As a side
effect, ATAPI drives which improperly use ATA register signatures should now
be attached as ATAPI.
need to downgrade, downgrade to PIO, as it has been shown if we got CRC errors
in Ultra-DMA mode, we will have silent data corruption in multiword DMA mode
(isn't IDE wonderfull ? :).
Set timeout to 1s for "normal" ata I/O, to minimise the effects of missed
interrupts.
In wdc_probe_caps() add code to guess the ATA revision supported (if
ATA4 if Ultra-DMA, ATA2 if PIO mode > 2). We can't rely on param.atap_ata_major
here, at last one Ultra-DMA drive claims to support only ATA-3.
Use the ATA version in ata_perror(), and to try a flush cache command
in a shutdown hook for IDE drives.
- keep the modes supported by the drive in struct ata_drive_datas (will be
later used for downgrading the DMA/PIO mode on error)
- use config flags to force/disable PIO/DMA/UDMA modes
- For the CMD PCI0643/6 setup DMA mode to DMA Read multiple.
device registers should be read back into the wdc_command structure after
successfull command completion. Use this this in wdioctl() for
ATAIOCCOMMAND.
