From 13cc546be3060324de9d92ebde3bc9dbd950df23 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Gwendal Grignou Date: Thu, 10 Jan 2008 15:47:56 +0900 Subject: sata_sil24: prevent hba lockup when pass-through ATA commands are used Fix commands timeout with Sil3124/3132 based HBA when pass-through ATA commands [where ATA_QCFLAG_RESULT_TF is set] are used while other commands are active on other devices connected to the same port with a Port Multiplier. Due to a hardware bug, these commands must be sent alone, like ATAPI commands.
