- 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 ...
2 times in the past
- Set up timeout per xfer instead of per interrupt. This helps with
PIO transfer (we would call timeout()/untimout() several times for a
transfer).
- If we missed an interrupt for a PIO transfer, reset and restart it
immedialy, don't try to recover and continue. If we missed an interrupt we
may have lost a read/write cycle on the IDE bus. If this happens 1) we
corrupt data and 2) we enter an interrupt loop at the end of the xfer, as
the drive has some more data to read/write, but the host thinks the xfer is
done.
This last change fix the (or at last some of the) 'lookup after lost interrupt'
some peoples have been experiencing.
are called from the interrupt or timeout handler, 0 otherwise.
- use this to know if we can busy-wait for wait_for_unbusy or wait_for_ready
This fixes a bug where CDs withot the DRQ_INTR capability would not busy-wait
for the CMDOUT phase.
While I'm there change 2 delay() to DELAY() for consistency, and
garbage-collect some old code from wdcintr() which has been ifdef'd out
for some time now.
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.
the disk is ready to transfer data, and in ATA-5 the DSC has been obsoleted.
So only wait for DRQ to transfer data. This can be made conditional on the
ATA version if it's proven to break with some drives (worked with all the
drives I have access to).
While I'm there correct a few typos.
an array of fixed-sized channel_softc elements. This way IDE controllers
which more than 1 channel (pciide) can extend the channel data easily
for private needs.
To avoid the double dereference at runtime, change the argument of
wdcstart() to the channel data pointer instead of the array index.
