ahci.c: walkaround for SB600 SATA internal error issue
There is a HW issue in ATI SB600 SATA that PxSERR.E should not be set on some conditions, for example, when there is no media in SATA CD/DVD drive or media is not ready, AHCI controller fails to execute ATAPI commands and reports PORT_IRQ_TF_ERR, but ATI SB600 SATA controller sets PxSERR.E at the same time, which is not necessary. This patch is just to ignore the INTERNAL ERROR in such case. Without this patch, ahci error handler will report many errors as below: ----------- cut from dmesg ----------- ata9: soft resetting port ata9: SATA link up 1.5 Gbps (SStatus 113 SControl 300) ata9.00: configured for UDMA/33 ata9: EH complete ata9.00: exception Emask 0x40 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x800 action 0x2 ata9.00: (irq_stat 0x40000001) ata9.00: cmd a0/00:00:00:00:20/00:00:00:00:00/a0 tag 0 cdb 0x0 data 0 res 51/24:03:00:00:20/00:00:00:00:00/a0 Emask 0x40 (internal error) ata9: soft resetting port ata9: SATA link up 1.5 Gbps (SStatus 113 SControl 300) ata9.00: configured for UDMA/33 ata9: EH complete ata9.00: exception Emask 0x40 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x800 action 0x2 ata9.00: (irq_stat 0x40000001) ata9.00: cmd a0/01:00:00:00:00/00:00:00:00:00/a0 tag 0 cdb 0x43 data 12 in res 51/24:03:00:00:00/00:00:00:00:00/a0 Emask 0x40 (internal error) -------- end cut --------- Signed-off-by: Conke Hu <conke.hu@amd.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>
