[PATCH] sata_sil: add Large Block Transfer support

From: Robert Hancock
Date: Sun Dec 14 2008 - 21:17:21 EST


This implements support for the Large Block Transfer feature found in Silicon
Image 311x SATA controllers. This allows transferring bigger contiguous chunks
of data from system memory and avoids the 64KB boundary restriction of standard
SFF controllers.

This is based on a patch from Jeff Garzik (from the sii-lbt branch of
libata-dev) but includes a few bug fixes: Since the bmdma2 register does not
implement the status bits, the original bmdma register must be used except
where the bmdma2 register is required. As well, the DMA boundary should be
31-bit instead of 32-bit since the top bit of the length field is still
required for the PRD end-of-table flag, and the sg_tablesize can be set to
the full size of the allocated PRD table since no splitting of entries
will be required.

Obviously not 2.6.28 material, but could potentially head into .29.
I've done some testing with a DVD drive connected to this controller
and verified that reading off an entire DVD returns correct data
(and that the controller is actually getting requests that cross
64K boundaries). More testing would certainly be useful..
