<content type='text'>
Introduce struct ata_reset_operations to aggregate in a single structure
the definitions of the 4 reset methods (prereset, softreset, hardreset
and postreset) for a port. This new structure is used in struct ata_port
to define the reset methods for a regular port (reset field) and for a
port-multiplier port (pmp_reset field). A pointer to either of these
fields replaces the 4 reset method arguments passed to ata_eh_recover()
and ata_eh_reset().

The definition of the reset methods for all drivers is changed to use
the reset and pmp_reset fields in struct ata_port_operations.

A large number of files is modifed, but no functional changes are
introduced.

The function ata_dev_cleanup_cdl_resources() is called only from
ata_dev_init_cdl_resources() and ata_dev_free_resources() which are
both defined in drivers/ata/libata-core.c. So there is no need for
ata_dev_cleanup_cdl_resources() to be visible from outside of this
file. Change this function definition to be a static function.

No functional changes.

<title>ata: libata-core: Cache the general purpose log directory</title>
<updated>2025-07-04T08:36:00+00:00</updated>
<author>
<name>Damien Le Moal</name>
<email>dlemoal@kernel.org</email>
</author>
<published>2025-07-03T10:36:19+00:00</published>
<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.tavy.me/linux.git/commit/?id=6d4405b16d37090a0c905079eab951cfb5044a65'/>
<id>6d4405b16d37090a0c905079eab951cfb5044a65</id>
<content type='text'>
The function ata_log_supported() tests if a log page is supported by a
device using the General Purpose Log Directory log page, which lists the
size of all surported log pages. However, this log page is read from the
device using ata_read_log_page() every time ata_log_supported() is
called. That is not necessary.

Avoid reading the General Purpose Log Directory log page by caching its
content in the gp_log_dir buffer defined as part of struct ata_device.
The functions ata_read_log_directory() and ata_clear_log_directory() are
introduced to manage this buffer. ata_clear_log_directory() zero-fill
the gp_log_dir buffer every time ata_dev_configure() is called, that is,
when the device is first scanned and when it is being revalidated.
The function ata_log_supported() is modified to call
ata_read_log_directory() instead of ata_read_log_page().

The function ata_read_log_directory() calls ata_read_log_page() to read
the General Purpose Log Directory log page from the device only if the
first 16-bits word of the log is not equal to 0x0001, that is, it is not
equal to the ACS mandated value for the log version.

With this, the log page is read from the device only once for every
ata_dev_configure() call. For instance, with pr_debug enabled, a call
to ata_dev_configure() before this patch generates the following log
page accesses:

ata3.00: read log page - log 0x0, page 0x0
ata3.00: read log page - log 0x13, page 0x0
ata3.00: read log page - log 0x0, page 0x0
ata3.00: read log page - log 0x12, page 0x0
ata3.00: read log page - log 0x0, page 0x0
ata3.00: read log page - log 0x30, page 0x0
ata3.00: read log page - log 0x30, page 0x8
ata3.00: read log page - log 0x0, page 0x0
ata3.00: read log page - log 0x0, page 0x0
ata3.00: read log page - log 0x0, page 0x0
ata3.00: read log page - log 0x30, page 0x0
ata3.00: read log page - log 0x0, page 0x0
ata3.00: read log page - log 0x30, page 0x0
ata3.00: read log page - log 0x30, page 0x3
ata3.00: read log page - log 0x30, page 0x4
ata3.00: read log page - log 0x18, page 0x0

That is, the general purpose log directory page is read 7 times.
With this patch applied, the number of accesses to this log page is
reduced to one:

ata3.00: read log page - log 0x0, page 0x0
ata3.00: read log page - log 0x13, page 0x0
ata3.00: read log page - log 0x12, page 0x0

ata_dev_config_lpm() prints the message "LPM support broken, forcing
max_power" for devices that have the ATA_QUIRK_NOLPM quirk flag set.
This messages is repeated for every device revalidation, which is not
necessary, but also erroneously printed for devices without a broken LPM
support when connected to a port that does not support LPM (e.g. because
the port is an external one with hotplug capability).

Since in all cases the device port target_lpm_policy is set to
ATA_LPM_MAX_POWER, avoid the "LPM broken" message repetition and
erroneous output by generating it only if the port target_lpm_policy is
not already set to ATA_LPM_MAX_POWER.

This change will suppress the "LPM broken" message for genuine cases of
a device having broken LPM if the initial LPM policy is set to
ATA_LPM_MAX_POWER through CONFIG_SATA_MOBILE_LPM_POLICY. This is not a
problem as the ATA_LPM_MAX_POWER policy implies that LPM is disabled and
unused, which is safe for devices with broken LPM.

If the port of a device does not support Device Initiated Power
Management (DIPM), that is, the port is flagged with ATA_FLAG_NO_DIPM,
the DIPM feature of a device should not be used. Though DIPM is disabled
by default on a device, the "Software Settings Preservation feature"
may keep DIPM enabled or DIPM may have been enabled by the system
firmware.

Introduce the function ata_dev_config_lpm() to always disable DIPM on a
device that supports this feature if the port of the device is flagged
with ATA_FLAG_NO_DIPM. ata_dev_config_lpm() is called from
ata_dev_configure(), ensuring that a device DIPM feature is disabled
when it cannot be used.

The ATA device flag ATA_DFLAG_ZAC is used to indicate if a devie is a
host managed or host aware zoned device. However, this flag is not used
in the hot path and only used during device scanning/revalidation and
for inquiry and sense SCSI command translation.

Save one bit from struct ata_device flags field by replacing this flag
with the internal helper function ata_dev_is_zac(). This function
returns true if the device class is ATA_DEV_ZAC (host managed ZAC device
case) or if its identify data reports it supports the zoned command set
(host aware ZAC device case).
