As described by Matthew Garret quite a while back:
https://mjg59.dreamwidth.org/34868.html
Intel CPUs starting with the Haswell generation need SATA links to power
down for the "package" part of the CPU to reach low power-states like
PC7 / P8 which bring a significant power-saving with them.
The default max_performance lpm policy does not allow for these high
PC states, both the medium_power and min_power policies do allow this.
The min_power policy saves significantly more power, but there are some
reports of some disks / SSDs not liking min_power leading to system
crashes and in some cases even data corruption has been reported.
Matthew has found a document documenting the default settings of
Intel's IRST Windows driver with which most laptops ship:
https://www-ssl.intel.com/content/dam/doc/reference-guide/sata-devices-implementation-recommendations.pdf
Matthew wrote a patch changing med_power to match those defaults, but
that never got anywhere as some people where reporting issues with the
patch-set that patch was a part of.
This commit is another attempt to make the default IRST driver settings
available under Linux, but instead of changing medium_power and
potentially introducing regressions, this commit adds a new
med_power_with_dipm setting which is identical to the existing
medium_power accept that it enables dipm on top, which makes it match
the Windows IRST driver settings, which should hopefully be safe to
use on most devices.
The med_power_with_dipm setting is close to min_power, except that:
a) It does not use host-initiated slumber mode (ASP not set),
but it does allow device-initiated slumber
b) It does not enable DevSlp mode
On my T440s test laptop I get the following power savings when idle:
medium_power 0.9W
med_power_with_dipm 1.2W
min_power 1.2W

The warning message "READ LOG DMA EXT failed, trying unqueued" in
ata_read_log_page() as well as the macro name ATA_HORKAGE_NO_NCQ_LOG
are confusing: the command READ LOG DMA EXT is not an queued NCQ command
unless it is encapsulated in a RECEIVE FPDMA QUEUED command.
From ACS-4 READ LOG DMA EXT description:
"The device processes the READ LOG DMA EXT command in the NCQ feature
set environment (see 4.13.6) if the READ LOG DMA EXT command is
encapsulated in a RECEIVE FPDMA QUEUED command (see 7.30) with the
inputs encapsulated as shown in 7.23.6."
To avoid confusion, fix the warning messsage to mention switching to PIO and
not "unqueued" and rename the macro ATA_HORKAGE_NO_NCQ_LOG to
ATA_HORKAGE_NO_DMA_LOG.

Instead define the timeout behavior purely based on the host_template
eh_timed_out method and wire up the existing transport implementations
in the host templates. This also clears up the confusion that the
transport template method overrides the host template one, so some
drivers have to re-override the transport template one.

This patch checks to see if an ATA device supports NCQ command priorities.

This is done to improve the tail latency of commands that are high
priority by passing priority to the device.

The id buffer in ata_device is a DMA target, but it isn't explicitly
cacheline aligned. Due to this, adjacent fields can be overwritten with
stale data from memory on non coherent architectures. As a result, the
kernel is sometimes unable to communicate with an ATA device.
Fix this by ensuring that the id buffer is cacheline aligned.
This issue is similar to that fixed by Commit 84bda12af3
("libata: align ap->sector_buf").

The AHCI driver code stops and starts port DMA engines at will
without considering the power state of the particular port. The
AHCI specification isn't very clear on how to handle this scenario,
leaving implementation open to interpretation.
Broadcom's STB SATA host controller is unable to handle port DMA
controller restarts when the port in question is in low power mode.
When a port enters partial or slumber mode, its PHY is powered down.
When a controller restart is requested, the controller's internal
state machine expects the PHY to be brought back up by software which
never happens in this case, resulting in failures.
To avoid this situation, logic is added to manually wake up the port
just before its DMA engine is stopped, if the port happens to be in
a low power state. HBA initiated power management ensures that the port
eventually returns to its configured low power state, when the link is
idle (as per the conditions listed in the spec). A new host flag is also
added to ensure this logic is only exercised for hosts with the above
limitation.

The link resume logic uses a 200msec delay while debouncing
the SControl register. The rationale behind that delay is
to accommodate some PHYs that behave badly if their SStatus/
SControl registers are pounded immediately on resume.
The Broadcom STB SATA PHY does not seem to have this issue.
This patch introduces a new link flag that allows platforms
to skip the debounce delay if it isn't needed.
