[PATCH] ata: sata_dwc_460ex: fix sata_dwc_460ex when using dma transfers
From: Christian Lamparter
Date: Wed Apr 06 2016 - 11:34:11 EST
This patch allows sata_dwc_460ex to work with non-ncq, dma i/o.
Previously, the driver dumped the following warning:
------------[ cut here ]------------
WARNING: at c01f3d50 [verbose debug info unavailable]

[cf6a9950] [c01e24f4] ata_qc_issue+0x2f0/0x364
and was unable to access the drive. The issue is that
ata_sff_qc_issue can only handle PIO. This patch replaces
the it with ata_bmdma_qc_issue which handles DMA transfers
and can fallback to PIO when needed.

Note: I have a system with a APM82181 (which is a ppc460ex derivative).
It's the SoC in the WD MyBook Live NAS.
The driver has other issues as well... e.g:
Unable to handle kernel paging request for data at address 0x00000004
Faulting instruction address: 0xc01f2640
Oops: Kernel access of bad area, sig: 11 [#1]
CPU: 0 PID: 1 Comm: swapper Not tainted 4.4.6 #42

[cf435dc0] [c01c5728] platform_drv_probe+0x34/0x70
(This is due to hsdev->dma being NULL, as it was never allocated
or set).
However, this has been fixed (including fixes to dwc's
DMA) by Mans Rullgard. His repo is available from:
<https://bitbucket.org/mansr/linux-dwc/branch/dwc-sata>
Note2: NCQ seems to freezes the controller. Not sure what's
going on. I can post a separate patch to disable it, if requested.
