drivers/block: Move PARIDE protocol modules to drivers/ata/pata_parport

2023-01-31T11:30:49Z

Move PARIDE protocol modules out of drivers/block into drivers/ata/pata_parport and update the CONFIG_ symbol names to PATA_PARPORT. [Damien] The pata_parport driver file itsef is also moved together with the protocol modules in drivers/ata/pata_parport.

drivers/block: Remove PARIDE core and high-level protocols

2023-01-31T01:41:32Z

Remove PARIDE core and high level protocols, taking care not to break low-level drivers (used by pata_parport). Also update documentation. Signed-off-by: Ondrej Zary Acked-by: Jens Axboe Signed-off-by: Damien Le Moal

ata: pata_parport: add driver (PARIDE replacement)

2023-01-31T00:34:41Z

The pata_parport is a libata-based replacement of the old PARIDE subsystem - driver for parallel port IDE devices. It uses the original paride low-level protocol drivers but does not need the high-level drivers (pd, pcd, pf, pt, pg). The IDE devices behind parallel port adapters are handled by the ATA layer. This will allow paride and its high-level drivers to be removed. Unfortunately, libata drivers cannot sleep so pata_parport claims parport before activating the ata host and keeps it claimed (and protocol connected) until the ata host is removed. This means that no devices can be chained (neither other pata_parport devices nor a printer). paride and pata_parport are mutually exclusive because the compiled protocol drivers are incompatible. Tested with: - Imation SuperDisk LS-120 and HP C4381A (EPAT) - Freecom Parallel CD (FRPW) - Toshiba Mobile CD-RW 2793008 w/Freecom Parallel Cable rev.903 (FRIQ) - Backpack CD-RW 222011 and CD-RW 19350 (BPCK6) The following bugs in low-level protocol drivers were found and will be fixed later: Note: EPP-32 mode is buggy in EPAT - and also in all other protocol drivers - they don't handle non-multiple-of-4 block transfers correctly. This causes problems with LS-120 drive. There is also another bug in EPAT: EPP modes don't work unless a 4-bit or 8-bit mode is used first (probably some initialization missing?). Once the device is initialized, EPP works until power cycle. So after device power on, you have to: echo "parport0 epat 0" >/sys/bus/pata_parport/new_device echo pata_parport.0 >/sys/bus/pata_parport/delete_device echo "parport0 epat 4" >/sys/bus/pata_parport/new_device (autoprobe will initialize correctly as it tries the slowest modes first but you'll get the broken EPP-32 mode) Note: EPP modes are buggy in FRPW, only modes 0 and 1 work.

block: Change the type of req_op() and bio_op() into enum req_op

2022-07-14T18:14:30Z

Improve static type checking by changing the type of the value returned by req_op() and bio_op() from unsigned int into enum req_op. Insert 'default: break;' in switch statements on the enum req_op type to prevent that the compiler warns about these switch statements.

paride: fix up build warning on mips platforms

MIPS include files define "PC" so when building the paride driver the following build warning shows up: rivers/block/paride/bpck.c:32: warning: "PC" redefined Fix this by undefining PC before redefining it as is done for other defines in this driver.

All modern drivers can support extra partitions using the extended dev_t. In fact except for the ioctl method drivers never even see partitions in normal operation. So remove the GENHD_FL_EXT_DEVT and allow extra partitions for all block devices that do support partitions, and require those that do not support partitions to explicit disallow them using GENHD_FL_NO_PART.
