<id>urn:sha1:141f3d6256e58103ece1c3dd2835e871f1dde240</id>
<content type='text'>
The function __ata_change_queue_depth() uses the helper
ata_scsi_find_dev() to get the ata_device structure of a scsi device and
set that device maximum queue depth. However, when the ata device is
managed by libsas, ata_scsi_find_dev() returns NULL, turning
__ata_change_queue_depth() into a nop, which prevents the user from
setting the maximum queue depth of ATA devices used with libsas based
HBAs.

Fix this by renaming __ata_change_queue_depth() to
ata_change_queue_depth() and adding a pointer to the ata_device
structure of the target device as argument. This pointer is provided by
ata_scsi_change_queue_depth() using ata_scsi_find_dev() in the case of
a libata managed device and by sas_change_queue_depth() using
sas_to_ata_dev() in the case of a libsas managed ata device.

<content type='text'>
Commit 0568e6122574 ("ata: libata-scsi: cap ata_device-&gt;max_sectors
according to shost-&gt;max_sectors") inadvertently capped the max_sectors
value for some SATA disks to a value which is lower than we would want.

For a device which supports LBA48, we would previously have request queue
max_sectors_kb and max_hw_sectors_kb values of 1280 and 32767 respectively.

For AHCI controllers, the value chosen for shost max sectors comes from
the minimum of the SCSI host default max sectors in
SCSI_DEFAULT_MAX_SECTORS (1024) and the shost DMA device mapping limit.

This means that we would now set the max_sectors_kb and max_hw_sectors_kb
values for a disk which supports LBA48 at 512, ignoring DMA mapping limit.

As report by Oliver at [0], this caused a performance regression.

Fix by picking a large enough max sectors value for ATA host controllers
such that we don't needlessly reduce max_sectors_kb for LBA48 disks.

<content type='text'>
The packed transfer mode masks and also the {pio|mwdma|udma}_mask fields
of *struct*s ata_device and ata_port_info are declared as *unsigned long*
(which is a 64-bit type on 64-bit architectures) but actually the packed
masks occupy only 20 bits (7 PIO modes, 5 MWDMA modes, and 8 UDMA modes)
and the PIO/MWDMA/UDMA masks easily fit into just 8 bits each, so we can
safely use (always 32-bit) *unsigned int* variables instead.  This saves
745 bytes of object code in libata-core.o alone, not to mention LLDDs...

<content type='text'>
The data transfer mode that corresponds to the 'xfer_mode' parameter for
ata_xfer_mode2shift() is a 8-bit *unsigned* value.  Using *unsigned long*
to declare the parameter leads to a problematic implicit *int* to *unsigned
long* cast and was most probably a result of a copy/paste mistake -- use
the 'u8' type instead, as in ata_xfer_mode2mask()...

<content type='text'>
Improve ATA queued command allocation as follows:

- For attaining a qc tag for a SAS host we need to allocate a bit in
  ata_port.sas_tag_allocated bitmap.

  However we already have a unique tag per device in range
  [0, ATA_MAX_QUEUE -1] in the scsi cmnd budget token, so just use that
  instead.

- It is a bit pointless to have ata_qc_new_init() in libata-core.c since it
  pokes scsi internals, so inline it in ata_scsi_qc_new() (in
  libata-scsi.c). Also update Doc accordingly.

- Use standard SCSI helpers set_host_byte() and set_status_byte() in
  ata_scsi_qc_new().

Christoph Hellwig originally contributed the change to inline
ata_qc_new_init().
