threeeye bc1d038eac REVVL 6 Pro kernel bring-up: full working tree snapshot (2026-09-12)
Squashed backup commit (no shallow-clone history issues) of
xiaomi-mt6833-dev/kernel_xiaomi_mt6833 (lineage-23.2 branch, upstream
commit 9eece662e) plus all fixes applied to get everpal_defconfig building
clean against a modern (GCC 15.2.0) toolchain -- see the previous commit
message on the lineage-23.2 branch (also in this repo history is not
available here since this is a squashed snapshot; full incremental history
lives in the local DL380 checkout and the upstream GitHub remote).

Description:
Provide a place in sysfs for storing the ATA topology of the system. This allows
retrieving various information about ATA objects.
Files under /sys/class/ata_port
-------------------------------
For each port, a directory ataX is created where X is the ata_port_id of
the port. The device parent is the ata host device.
idle_irq (read)
Number of IRQ received by the port while idle [some ata HBA only].
nr_pmp_links (read)
If a SATA Port Multiplier (PM) is connected, number of link behind it.
Files under /sys/class/ata_link
-------------------------------
Behind each port, there is a ata_link. If there is a SATA PM in the
topology, 15 ata_link objects are created.
If a link is behind a port, the directory name is linkX, where X is
ata_port_id of the port.
If a link is behind a PM, its name is linkX.Y where X is ata_port_id
of the parent port and Y the PM port.
hw_sata_spd_limit
Maximum speed supported by the connected SATA device.
sata_spd_limit
Maximum speed imposed by libata.
sata_spd
Current speed of the link [1.5, 3Gps,...].
Files under /sys/class/ata_device
---------------------------------
Behind each link, up to two ata device are created.
The name of the directory is devX[.Y].Z where:
- X is ata_port_id of the port where the device is connected,
- Y the port of the PM if any, and
- Z the device id: for PATA, there is usually 2 devices [0,1],
only 1 for SATA.
class
Device class. Can be "ata" for disk, "atapi" for packet device,
"pmp" for PM, or "none" if no device was found behind the link.
dma_mode
DMA transfer mode used by the device.
Mostly used by PATA device.
pio_mode
PIO transfer mode used by the device.
Mostly used by PATA device.
xfer_mode
Current transfer mode.
Mostly used by PATA device.
id
Cached result of IDENTIFY command, as described in ATA8 7.16 and 7.17.
Only valid if the device is not a PM.
gscr
Cached result of the dump of PM GSCR register.
Valid registers are:
0: SATA_PMP_GSCR_PROD_ID,
1: SATA_PMP_GSCR_REV,
2: SATA_PMP_GSCR_PORT_INFO,
32: SATA_PMP_GSCR_ERROR,
33: SATA_PMP_GSCR_ERROR_EN,
64: SATA_PMP_GSCR_FEAT,
96: SATA_PMP_GSCR_FEAT_EN,
130: SATA_PMP_GSCR_SII_GPIO
Only valid if the device is a PM.
trim
Shows the DSM TRIM mode currently used by the device. Valid
values are:
unsupported: Drive does not support DSM TRIM
unqueued: Drive supports unqueued DSM TRIM only
queued: Drive supports queued DSM TRIM
forced_unqueued: Drive's queued DSM support is known to be
buggy and only unqueued TRIM commands
are sent
spdn_cnt
Number of time libata decided to lower the speed of link due to errors.
ering
Formatted output of the error ring of the device.
