Re: [PATCH v2 2/2] ata: implement MODE SELECT command

Hello.

The cache_type file in sysfs lets users configure the disk cache in
write-through or write-back modes. However, ata disks do not support
writing to the file because they do not implement the MODE SELECT
command.

This patch adds a translation from MODE SELECT (for the caching page
only) to the ATA SET FEATURES command. The set of changeable parameters
answered by MODE SENSE is also adjusted accordingly.

Strictly speaking, it should be "invalid phase" error.

The same.

+ }

Strictly speaking, it's "data underrun" error.

What if the S/G list spans multiple non-consecutive pages?

Not 'invalid_param_len'?

Rather "paramater not supported" (0x26/0x01)...

+ if (pg_len > len)

We have just checked this.

+ switch (pg) {
+ case CACHE_MPAGE:

Rather "parameter not supported"?

Rather "paramater not supported"...
