This is a note to let you know that I have just added a patch titled libata: support the ata host which implements a queue depth less than 32 to the linux-3.13.y-queue branch of the 3.13.y.z extended stable tree which can be found at: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/linux.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/linux-3.13.y-queue This patch is scheduled to be released in version 3.13.11.6. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to this tree, please reply to this email. For more information about the 3.13.y.z tree, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Dev/ExtendedStable Thanks. -Kamal ------ From a81630d6b97b9b583b3500454875fb1aa832cebd Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Kevin Hao <haokexin@gmail.com> Date: Sat, 12 Jul 2014 12:08:24 +0800 Subject: libata: support the ata host which implements a queue depth less than 32 commit 1871ee134b73fb4cadab75752a7152ed2813c751 upstream. The sata on fsl mpc8315e is broken after the commit 8a4aeec8d2d6 ("libata/ahci: accommodate tag ordered controllers"). The reason is that the ata controller on this SoC only implement a queue depth of 16. When issuing the commands in tag order, all the commands in tag 16 ~ 31 are mapped to tag 0 unconditionally and then causes the sata malfunction. It makes no senses to use a 32 queue in software while the hardware has less queue depth. So consider the queue depth implemented by the hardware when requesting a command tag.
