[PATCH] [127/139] libata-sff: fix HSM_ST_ERR handling in __ata_sff_port_intr()

From: Andi Kleen
Date: Tue Feb 01 2011 - 19:48:09 EST


2.6.35-longterm review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------
From: Tejun Heo <tj@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 687a993339c4f3a63654746230da3aab8bbdbffd upstream.

While separating out BMDMA irq handler from SFF, commit c3b28894
(libata-sff: separate out BMDMA irq handler) incorrectly made
__ata_sff_port_intr() consider an IRQ to be an idle one if the host
state was transitioned to HSM_ST_ERR by ata_bmdma_port_intr().

This makes BMDMA drivers ignore IRQs reporting host bus error which
leads to timeouts instead of triggering EH immediately. Fix it by
making __ata_sff_port_intr() consider the IRQ to be an idle one iff
the state is HSM_ST_IDLE. This is equivalent to adding HSM_ST_ERR to
the "break"ing case but less error-prone.
