      [PATCH] put ide_driver_t on lists · 9e8a6e88
      Alexander Viro authored
      instead of messing with ide_module_t, we put ide_driver_t themselves on
      a (cyclic) list - said list being the only use of ide_module_t for
      high-level drivers.  ide_register_module()/ide_unregister_module() takes
      ide_driver_t now (renamed to ide_register_driver()).  /proc/ide/drivers
      switched to use of that cyclic list and uses seq_file instead of old
      home-grown code.

      Nuke /proc/ide. For explanations why, please see the frustrated comments in the
      previous change log. If one still don't see why it wasn't a good thing,
      well please just take a look at the following:
      
      Kernel size before:
      
          text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
      1716049  403968  470252 2590269  27863d vmlinux
      
      Kernel size after:

      1680993  403488  470124 2554605  26faed vmlinux
      
      2% of overall size! And this is not exactly an minimalistic setup.

      [PATCH] 2.5.14 IDE 55 · fb0bbfda
      Martin Dalecki authored
       - Update HPT374 driver carried over from 2.4.xx series by Andrew Morton.
         Resync it with the recent host chip driver changes, or better the
         introduction of an API at all.
      
       - Consolidate the handling of device ID byte order in one place.
         This was spotted and patched by Bartomiej onierkiewicz.
      
       - Eliminate CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDEPCI - it's duplicating the functionality of the
         already present and fine CONFIG_PCI flag and if we are a PCI host, we are
         indeed very likely to need host chip support anyway.
      
       - Remove some redundant info about the model and channel number from
         /proc/ide. Remove the binary entries not helpful to the user, and not used
         by any program and redundant to corresponding ioctls.
      
       - Properly return udma_read and udma_write values in taskfile.
      
       - Only initialize XXX_udma to the default handlers if it has not been
         initialized by the host chip initialization.
      
      I have enabled spin lock debugging and can see that on device
      flush the spin locks get wrong counts... no problems elsewher ethus
      far. I will re check them next time around.

      - Streamline the usage of sector_t over the strategy routines in question a
         bit. Streamline the do_request code in ide-disk.c.
      
      - Improve the readability of start_request in ide.c.
      
      - Remove obsolete/nowhere used stuff from hdreg.h.
      
      - Splitup special_t into classical flag field.
      
      - Use only a single field to determine the capacity of a drive.  Make this
         field and the code paths it follows as far as possible use the sector_t
         instead of a hard coded integer types.  This increases the chances that at
         some distant point in time we will indeed be able to use 64 bit wide sector_t
         entities. (Disks are getting huge those times now...)

      Martin Dalecki authored
      - Consolidate ide_choose_drive() and choose_drive() in to one function.
      
      - Remove sector data byteswpapping support. Byte-swapping the data is supported
         on the file-system level where applicable.  Byte-swapped interfaces are
         supported on a lower level anyway. And finally it was used inconsistently.
      
      - Eliminate taskfile_input_data() and taskfile_output_data(). This allowed us
         to split up ideproc and eliminate the ugly action switch as well as the
         corresponding defines.
      
      - Remove tons of unnecessary typedefs from ide.h
      
      - Prepate the PIO read write code for soon overhaul.
      
      - Misc small bits here and there :-).

      - Eliminate the mate member of the ata_channel structure. The information
         provided by it is already present. This patch may have undesirable
         effects on the ns87415.c and trm290.c host chip drivers, but it's worth
         for structural reasons to have it.
      
      - Kill unused code, which was "fixing" interrupt routing from ide-pci.c Don't
         pass any "mate" between the functions there.
      
      - Don't define SUPPORT_VLB_SYNC unconditionally in ide-taskfile.c

      [PATCH] 2.5.7 IDE 27 · ff3c2cbb
      Martin Dalecki authored
      - Make for less terse error messages in ide-tape.c.
      
      - Replaced all timecomparisions done by hand with all the proper timer_after()
         commands.
      
      - Remove the drive niec1 mechanisms alltogether. There are several reasons for
         this:
      
         1. The code implementing it is nonintelliglible and therefore propably
         broken.
      
         2. If we have to invent somethig about sceduling drive IO, it should be done
         on the BIO level.
      
         3. We may in fact interleave with the IO sceduling on the upper layers and
         the results of two overlapping signal filters overlapped with each other can
         be disasterous to the overall throughput. (In fact they *are* most of the
         time.)
      
         4. It was not working if you had intermixed modes on different drives
         DMA versus PIO.
      
         5. Our goal is to have a driver which is able to share the badwidth
         properly and shouldn't needing this kind of "tuning".
      
      - Remove unused nice2 from disk struct.
      
      - Rename channel member of ata_channel to unit and device to dev to
         just prevent wrong interpretations. This prevents constructs like
         channel->channel...

      - Mark all members of structures, which get jiffies assigned or involved in

         Please grep for it to see immediately why this nomenclature is justified.
      
      - Rename hwifs_s to ata_channel and eliminate ide_hwifs_t as well as the HWIF
         macro. OK this step makes this patch rather big.

      Martin Dalecki authored
      - Apply more patches from Vojtech Pavlik for the handling of host chip setup.
         Hopefully they are settled now.
      
      - Kill unused CONFIG_BLK_DEV_MODES
      
      - Push register addressing down in to task_vlb_sync.
      
      - Make the taskfile parsing stuff actually readable. This is compressing the
         code by an incredible amount. We use just one function doing the whole
         scanning right now. This should make sure that the IRQ handler used by a
         particular command is always right.  I didn't introduce typos hopefully
         here.
      
      - Don't call ide_handler_parser as argument for do_taskfile() any longer. We
         have killed this function by coalescing it's functionality with
         ide_cmd_type_parser() anyway.
      
      - Kill unused SLC90E66 code, which Vojtech apparently missed in his patch.
      
      - sync up with 2.5.7-pre2
      
      Once again the actual patch is rather big mostly due to the removal of
      some default configuration variables which are not used anylonger. So time for
      the next patch stage.

      [PATCH] IDE 17 (not just cleanup) · a925c40f
      Martin Dalecki authored
      This is actually an attempt to remove some stall code from
      this driver. However if some *real* users complain (Not just
      the usuall: "Hey - if someone!" but the "Hey I'm using this!")
      I'm all open to reenable it. Since I prepared this patch
      yerstoday it doesn't contain the ide_module.h fixup. This will
      follow later.
      
      - Don't use the convoluted byte type in ide-pci.c. Just use the proper
         u8instead.
      
      - Move ide_get_or_set_dma_base to the only place where it's used and
         reorganize the code there by killing the unnecessary
         CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDEDMA_FORCED configuration option.
      
      - Remove unfunctional CONFIG_PKT_TASK_IOCTL code.
      
      - Kill unused ALTSTAT_SCREW_UP code.
      
      - Tons of dead code removed from ide-taskfile.c (#if 0 #endif and
         friends)
      
      - Remove unused IDE_DEBUG macro as well as lots of other name space
         pollution from ide.h.
      
      - Start using the ide_lock spin-lock for protecting access to data
         structures instead of the excessive interrupt disabling games.
      
      - Shorten the proc ouput of the piix initialization module.
      
      - Remove special /proc tape "name" output from ide-tape.c. This was
         redundant data which should only show up on syslog anyway.
      
      - Kill the REALLY_FAST_IO undef from the ide.h. This was a mistake
         present since far too many years in this driver. The proper way to
         deal with broken systems is to define REALLY_SLOW_IO in system
         dependent headers or particular driver files.  We can always
         reintroduce it easy if real users will complain, since OUT_BYTE() and
         similar can be used as hooks. But I don't expect anybody reporting
         about this. Even on the most broken IDE chip in the world (cmd640
         at VLB) undefining this *always* worked for me. Nearly all the code
         pieces in the ide driver code *reverted* it's effects explicitly
         anyway.
      
      - Remove the obsolete CONFIG_BLK_DEV_4DRIVES support. This was supposed
         to support 4 drivers attached at one channel on some older chipsets,
         in esp. Tekram 690CD, in the last century. They where all supposed to
         work at a register set starting at the base address 0x1f0.  Before
         complaining that this is removing functionality, please note that this
         must have been broken for already quite a long time, since the ide
         driver didn't contain the special device selection methods implicated
         by this any longer.  It didn't scan   this port too if PCI host chip
         support was enabled (as it is in all those distributions around
         there).  On the other hand this is the most prominent case of
         incoherent use of the mate member in the struct hwif_s. And please
         think about how big the probability is, that there are systems out
         there, where there are actually 4 drivers on such a channel?
      
      - Streamline module initialization code by removing one shoot functions.
      
      - Make the WAIT_READY value used in case of CONFIG_APM or
         CONFIG_APM_MODULE the default, since this is what really reflects the
         behavior of modern drives. It won't hurt any other case and finally
         removing it is reducing the necessary coverage for overall driver code
         testing/analysis.
      
      - Move the IDE_LARGE_SEEK macro to the only place where it's actually
         used. Replace the IDE_MIN() and IDE_MAX() drivers with the obvious.
         Remove unused SPLIT_WORD and MAKE WORD from the local header.
      
      - Remove CMD640_DUMP_REGS from global scope, since there is no
         development done on this any longer. Finally, the way the host chip
         initialization routines are called changed in the time between allows
         this to remain fully local to the host chip driver in question.
      
      - Some spell checking of comments in the code. (Yeep I have extended my
         Vim to do this the "Word" way with nice undercurl lines... mozilla
         remains to be fixed...)

      Martin Dalecki authored
      There is no such a thing like a ide-clean-15. Never was.  But here comes
      what has been done in ide-clean-16:
      
      - Apply a patch for the initialization of the second PIIX channel.
         Found by Daniel Quinlan <quinlan@transmeta.com>
      
      - Apply a patch for the DMA initialization of the serverworks chip.
         Ken Brownfield <brownfld@irridia.com>
      
      - Make the ata_operations methods immune against device type drivers,
         which donot provide them by separating the access to them out. Audit
         them all.
      
      - Resynchronize with 2.5.6-pre1.
      
      - Remove unused IDE_DRIVE_CMD, IDE_DRIVE_TASK, IDE_DRIVE_TASK_MASK,
         IDE_DRIVE_TASKFILE macros.
      
      - Disable configuration of the task file stuff. It is going to go away
         and will be replaced by a truly abstract interface based on
         functionality and *not* direct mess-up of hardware.
      
      - Resync with 2.5.6-pre2.
      
      - Add HPT entries to the fall-back list, since otherwise the driver
         won'trecognize the drives. We will have to make this the default
         behavior for allnot recognized host chip types.
      
      - Fix compilation with no PCI host chip support enabled.
      
      - Apply the overflow fixes for HPT366 by Vojtech Pavlik.
      
      - Kill the one-shoot functions ide_wait_cmd_taks() ide_wait_cmd() by
         moving them to the places where they are actually used. Fix a
         potential buffer overflow on the way.
      
      - Fix usage of ide.c as module. Thanks to Adam J. Richter for figuring
         out what was wrong.
      
      - Various cleanups all along as well as removal of TONS of
         unfinished/dead code.
      
      I think it's sometimes better to remove stuff, which isn't there,
      instead of hoping for a "magical day" where it will be finished.

      [PATCH] 2.5.6-pre1 IDE clean 14 · 48ba6e98
      Martin Dalecki authored
      Most importantly this patch is making ide.c use the
      new automagic for module initialization lists and further
      preparing the rest of the code in question here for proper
      module separation. Despite this the CMOS probe has been removed
      as well... *Iff*, which I don't expect, this breaks anything
      it can be reintroduced easely. During this effort an actual bug
      in the initialization of the main module has been uncovered as well.
      a quite serious BUG has been tagged in ide-scsi.c as well, but
      as far as now I just didn't get along to actually fixing it.
      (The patch is big enough as it is).
      
      Details follow:
      
      - Kill *unused* ide_media_verbose() funciton.
      
      - Remove the unnecessary media and supports_dma fields from
          ide_driver_t.
      
      - Remove the global name field from ide_driver_t struct by pushing it
          down to the places where it's actually used.
      
      - Remove the unused hwif_data field from ide_hwif_t.
      
      - Push the supports_dsc_overlap condition up to the level where it
          belongs: disk type as well.
      
      - Make the initialization of ide main ide.c work with the new module
          initialization auto-magic instead of calling it explicitly in
          ll_rw_block.c This prevents the ide_init() from being called twice. We
          have BTW. renamed it to ata_module_init(), since  ata is more adequate
          then ide and xxx_module_init corresponds better to the naming
          conventions used elsewhere throughout the kernel.
      
          This BUG was there before any ide-clean.  It was worked around by a
          magic variable preventing the second call to succeed.  We have removed
          this variable in one of the previous patches and thus uncovered it.
      
      - Kill proc_ide_read_driver() and proc_ide_write_driver(). The drivers
          already report on syslog which drives they have taken care of.  (Or
          at least they should). In esp. the proc_ide_write_driver() was just
          too offending for me.  Beleve it or not the purpose of it was to
          *request a particular* driver for a device, by echoing some magic
          values to a magic file...
          More importantly this "back door" was getting in the way of a properly
          done modularization of the IDE stuff.
      
      - Made some not externally used functions static or not EXPORT-ed.
      
      - Provide the start of a proper modularization between the main module
          and drivers for particular device types. Changing the name-space
          polluting DRIVER() macro to ata_ops() showed how inconsistently the
          busy (read: module  busy!) field from ide_driver_t
          is currently used across the    different device type modules.
          This has to be fixed soon.
      
      - Make the ide code use the similar device type ID numbers as the SCSI
          code :-).  This is just tedious, but it will help in a distant
          feature. It helps reading the code anyway.
      
      - Mark repettitive code with /* ATA-PATTERN */ comments for later
          consolidation at places where we did came across it.
      
      - Various comments and notes added where some explanations was missing.

      Martin Dalecki authored
      1. Add some notes to Documentation/driver-model.txt about how and
           and where to mount the driverfs.
      
      2. Reorganize and prepare the PCI scanning code for proper device
      dependant splitup. Basically tedious cleanup of macro games.
      
      3. Use struct pci_dev name field as the name of PCI host dapaters
      instead of invention ambigious IDE special names. This makes
      the kernel bootup messages look a bit shifted, since those names are bit
      longer, but makes up for consistance and should allow one later
      to rearage things to fit into the generic PCI device initialization
      mechanisms provided by the kernel.
      
      4. Set 3. Allowed us to make the host chip specific
      pci_init_xxx class functions have the proper signature of
      module initializers. This will make it possible to make true
      modules out of them later.
      
      5. Make some functions in cmd64x.c static which where not used
      elsewhere.
      
      6. rename ide_special_settings to trust_pci_irq - this is reflecting
      it's functionality better. And make it match the pci device vendor
      as well as the device ID. It was a BUG to match only the device id!.
      
      7. Make the chanell setup more tollerant for BIOS-es which don't
      report IO and MEM bases properly. The code found previously there
      tryed but was inconsistant.
      
      8. Start to use proper terminology in ide-pci.c: host chip, channel,
      drive instead of hwif, port, drive...
      
      9. Enlarge the name field from ide_hwif_t to 64 bytes. It was only 6
      previously and there where custom names there which where exceeding
      this!!! But since we use the proper pci devce name there now instead,
      we had to extend the size of this field anyway.
      
      10. Add some explanatory comments and fix misguiding comments here and
      there.
      
      11. Kill the proc_ide_write_config and proc_ide_read_config brain
      damage! Those where backdoors to the pci configuration registers on PCI
      devices and IO registers on directly connected ISA ATA controllers.
      They didn't discrement between them!
      
      Access to both of them *simply* doesn't belong into an operating system,
      which is supposed to abstract out the access to hardware! Did I mention
      that access to both can be done from user land without an IDE special
      interface! Any program which was using them (I hardly beleve there is
      one) just deserves to loose. The programmer responsible for it
      deserves to be fired immediately.
      
      12. Move ide_map_xx and ide_unmap_xx tinny bio level wrappers away
      from the "global" ide.h to where those are actually used and kill
      trivial wrappers for otherwise generic bio_ routines. Just fighting
      code obfuscation. The "rq->bio is used or is not there" brain
      damage in ide-taskfile.c has to be fixed later. Possibly by killing
      ide-taskfile.c alltogether, becouse this should be a driver for
      users and not a driver for ATA disk disaster recovery companys...
      
      13. Kill hwif->pci_devid and hwif->pci_venid. Just use the already
      present hwif->pci_dev field instead.
      
      14. Kill unused big switch ide_reinit_drive function. This silly
      functon was switching upon every possible device driver cathegory
      and calling the correspondng reinit function directly. This
      idiocy was fortunately not used.
      
      That's all... Most will be clear if one starts looking at the changes
      in ide.h of course...
      
      In contrast to the previous patches this one is actually fixing two
      serious bugs.
      
      
      The next direct step will be to kill the sigle place global PCI device
      type recognition list from ide-pci.c by pushing the entries to where
      they belong -> the host chips setup modules.

      [PATCH] 2.5.6-pre1 IDE cleanup 10 · f0a86f5a
      Martin Dalecki authored
      This is finishing the cleanup parts already started in ide-clean-9.
      
      It kills the ide_register_module() and ide_unregister_module() as well
      as associated idiosyncracies alltogether. It turns out
      that this patch is actually fixing a bug which was present in the
      driver before: the sub-module initialization functions where called
      at least twice - which is an abundance.
      
      Tough there is a bit of global namespace pollution caused by this
      patch - but I'm aware of it and will fix it just a bit later.
      (The terminology used inside the IDE code is anyway nothing common
      else in the linux universum...)
      
      The next targets will be:
      
      1. Code obfuscation by "wrappers" around generic BIO level functions.
      
      2. ide_hwgroup_t - which is only used to serialize multiple
      discs on the same interrupt and similar. This is however a tough one.
      
      3. There is a plenty of code waste in the chipset drivers, where there
      is baroque informative code for the proc file system for static stuff,
      which in fact belongs just to syslog(). In fact the default RedHat
      distribution kernel is killing this gratitious abuse of the /proc
      concept since a long long time...
      
      I'm still awaiting the day of /proc/GPL, where GPL contains the
      full text of it...

      [PATCH] 2.5.5-pre1 IDE cleanup 9 · 69f0d4b0
      Martin Dalecki authored
      1.  Kill the ide-probe-mod by merging it with ide-mod. There is *really*
          no reaons for having this stuff split up into two different
          modules unless you wan't to create artificial module dependancies
          and waste space of page boundaries during memmory allocation for the
          modules
      
      2.  Kill the ide_module_t - which is unnecessary and presents a
          "reimplementation" of module handling inside the ide driver.  This
          is achieved by attaching the initialization routine ot the
          ide_driver_t, which will be gone next time, since there is no sane
          reason apparently, which this couldn't be done during the
          module-generic initialization of the corresponding driver module.
      
      3.  Kill unnecessary tagging of "subdriver" with IDE_SUBDRIVER_VERSION -
          we have plenty of other mechanisms for module consistency checking.
          And anyway the ide code didn't any consistence checks on this value
          at all.
      
      NOTE: The ide_(un)register_module() functions will be killed in next round.

      [PATCH] Re: IDE cleanup for 2.5.4-pre3 · 5191903e
      Martin Dalecki authored
      The end_request() function familiy (not the global one, but the IDE
      specific ones), did bear a permuted parameter ordering.  After fixing
      this it turned out that at all places the huk parameter wasn't the
      hwgroup, but just the drive in question itself.  I have changed this to
      be more sane, which allowed to remove many unneccessary code
      duplication, or rather obfuscation, in between the __ide_end_request()
      and ide_end_request() functions.  This simplification is actually the
      "spreading" part of the game.
