I generally tend do cleanups as a groundwork for the real fixes and separate cleanups and fixes to have good base for dealing with regressions. Often all changes (cleanups/fixes) could be included in one patch but then I would have had harsh times when debugging the regressions. It matters a lot if you hit an unknown (or known but the documentation is covered by NDA) hardware bug - you can concentrate on a small patch changing the way in which hardware is accessed instead of that big patch moving code around etc. Also the thing is that the same bugs are propagated over many drivers so doing cleanups which merge code before fixing the bug makes sense. We can then fix the damn bug once and for all and not worry about somebody copy-n-pasting the bug from the yet-to-be-fixed driver (i.e. in the next patch IDE update there will be patch to check return value of ->speedproc in ide_tune_dma(), without ide-fix-dma-mask/ide-max-dma-mode/ide-tune-dma-helper patches I would have to go over all drivers to fix this bug and still there won't be a guarantee that same bug wouldn't be introduced in some new driver). The other advantage of doing cleanups is that code becomes cleaner/simpler which matters a lot for this codebase, i.e. ide-dma-off-void.patch exposed (yet to be fixed) bug in set_using_dma() (->ide_dma_off_quietly always returns 0 which is passed by ->ide_dma_check to set_using_dma() which incorrectly then calls ->ide_dma_on). Moreover I don't find the current tree to be more of cleanups than fixes, here is the analysis of current series file: # # -pata extraversion # pata-extraversion.patch -- n/a # # IDE patches from 2.6.20-rc3-mm1 # toshiba-tc86c001-ide-driver-take-2.patch toshiba-tc86c001-ide-driver-take-2-fix.patch toshiba-tc86c001-ide-driver-take-2-fix-2.patch -- new driver hpt3xx-rework-rate-filtering.patch hpt3xx-rework-rate-filtering-tidy.patch hpt3xx-print-the-real-chip-name-at-startup.patch hpt3xx-switch-to-using-pci_get_slot.patch hpt3xx-cache-channels-mcr-address.patch hpt3x7-merge-speedproc-handlers.patch hpt370-clean-up-dma-timeout-handling.patch hpt3xx-init-code-rewrite.patch piix-fix-82371mx-enablebits.patch piix-tuneproc-fixes-cleanups.patch slc90e66-carry-over-fixes-from-piix-driver.patch hpt36x-pci-clock-detection-fix.patch jmicron-warning-fix.patch -- fixes (but most have cleanups mixed in) pdc202xx_new-remove-useless-code.patch pdc202xx_-remove-check_in_drive_lists-abomination.patch -- cleanups # # IDE patches applied by Andrew (2.6.20-rc4-mm1) # atiixpc-remove-unused-code.patch -- cleanup atiixpc-sb600-ide-only-has-one-channel.patch atiixpc-add-cable-detection-support-for-ati-ide.patch ide-generic-jmicron-has-its-own-drivers-now.patch -- fixes ide-maintainers-entry.patch -- n/a # # IT8213 # it8213-ide-driver.patch it8213-ide-driver-update.patch -- new driver # # patches posted on Jan 11 2007 # ia64-pci_get_legacy_ide_irq.patch ide-pci-init-tags.patch -- fixes pdc202xx_old-dead-code.patch au1xxx-dead-code.patch ide-pio-blacklisted.patch ide-no-dsc-flag.patch trm290-dma-ifdefs.patch ide-pci-device-tables.patch ide-dev-openers.patch hpt366-init-dma.patch cs5530-cleanup.patch svwks-cleanup.patch sis5513-config-xfer-rate.patch ide-set-xfer-rate.patch ide-use-fast-pio-v2.patch ide-io-cleanup.patch -- cleanups # # Delkin CardBus CF driver (Mark Lord ) # delkin_cb-ide-driver.patch -- new driver # # IDE ACPI support (Hannes Reinecke ) # ide-acpi-support.patch -- new functionality (fixes PM on some machines) # # ide-pnp exit fix (Tejun Heo ) # ide-pnp-exit-fix.patch -- fix # # VIA IDE update (Josepch Chan ) # via-ide-update.patch -- fix # # patches posted on 18 Jan 2007 # it8213-ide-driver-update-fixes.patch -- fix ide-mmio-flag.patch -- cleanup hpt34x-tune-chipset-fix.patch -- fix ide-fix-pio-fallback.patch -- fix piix-cleanup.patch -- cleanup ide-dma-check-disable-dma-fix.patch sgiioc4-ide-dma-check-fix.patch -- fixes ide-set-dma-helper.patch ide-dma-off-void.patch ide-dma-host-on-void.patch ide-fix-dma-masks.patch ide-max-dma-mode.patch ide-tune-dma-helper.patch -- cleanups So it looks more like 50-50 with majority of fixes coming from you :) However I understand that for some applications (stable distro etc) fixes only tree would be more desired and if somebody would like to maintain such tree I'm all for it. :) OTOH getting patches against vanilla or -mm is perfectly fine with me and if you would like me to shuffle ordering of the patches (but without need of rewritting them) it also OK >>>> Signed-off-by: Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz > >>>> Index: b/drivers/ide/pci/aec62xx.c >>>> =================================================================== >>>> --- a/drivers/ide/pci/aec62xx.c >>>> +++ b/drivers/ide/pci/aec62xx.c >>>> @@ -214,12 +214,10 @@ static int aec62xx_config_drive_xfer_rat >>>> if (ide_use_dma(drive) && config_chipset_for_dma(drive)) >>>> return hwif->ide_dma_on(drive); >>>> >>>> - if (ide_use_fast_pio(drive)) { >>>> + if (ide_use_fast_pio(drive)) >>>> aec62xx_tune_drive(drive, 5); >>> >>> This function looks like it's working (thouugh having the wrong >>> limit of >>> PIO5 on auto-tuning) but is unnecassary complex. > >> Yes, it seems that there are actually two bugs here: >> * the maximum allowed PIO mode should be PIO4 not PIO5 >> * for auto-tuning ("pio" == 255) it incorrectly sets PIO0 >> (255 fails to the default case in the switch statement) > > Yeah, you if you pass 255, it won't work (so, drive->autotune must be > broken).
