Hi,
I never finished writing the proper driver, here my last code: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/narmstrong/linux-oxnas.git/refs/heads
The controller is different from ox820 and it doesn’t have an embedded dma so it must use a separate dma I managed to make it work to read some disk sectors.
You can continue the work if you wish
Thank you for your answer! And another little question - do you have any programming manual on oxe810dse?
Hello! That's long time ago... but now I am glad to say that SATA driver is almost or fully working. I want to pull new code to you. How to do it better? If you want, I can demonstrate kernel log from my WD NAS MyBook World Edition II (with one, two identical or even different HDDs). The main differencies from your driver version (and/or SoC manufacturer's) are 1) coreint interrupts not working, only for ports and therefore 2) we must use qc_defer; 3) also some optimizations for resets are needed, because original drivers replete with negligence, both old for ox810 and newest for ox820.
@Ykidia this is a great news ! You can either push a changeset to a fit with a fork of Linux or simply add the patch to this issue so I can have a look
wd-mbwe.target.linux.oxnas.zip Tried to make it easy + some SATA driver cleanup, but there is still a lot of work to do ;-) Unpack and overwrite files in corresponding dir of the current OpenWrt root. Here my startup kernel log with installed old Debian:

Found, corrected, the "SATA link up 3.0 Gbps" is back. Waiting for your notes and directions. wd-mbwe.target.linux.oxnas.tar.zip
P.S. What do you think about hardware RAID support? I tried to port raid1.c hacks from original 2.6.24.4 progressively, but somewhere in 3.x it turned out to be broken...
OK, now the step would be to clean the code and submit them as patches to the mailing lists.
I'll apply them to my linux tree to see the changes you did, anyway you did a great job here !
I pushed your changes on top of my commit https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/narmstrong/linux-oxnas.git/commit/?h=oxnas/v5.10/sata&id=acba9b2498a048f1a89fdac6f661ec263e369e76
Your code is very different, what base did you use ?
@Ykidia I did a global cleanup to match the kernel coding style and remove all warnings and pass all checkpatch strict checks https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/narmstrong/linux-oxnas.git/tree/drivers/ata/sata_ox810se.c?h=oxnas/v5.10/sata
There is still some work to do to make it upstreamable, the first would be to move ox810sata_hd
out of global and get it from private_data
I got rid of the global data, but it may be simplfied a lot since we can get the host priv via ap->host->private_data
so any function with ata_port
could get rid of the priv parameter

Primarily I used the code from original driver for 2.6.24.4 kernel. I've been doing incremental updates for whole kernel - 2.6.26, 2.6.27. 2.6.28 and so on (and starting from kernel 2.6.39 oxnas arch support was officially dropped). Prior to 3.7 kernel worked but installed Debian not (always stucks on "INIT: version 2.88 booting"). Then I refactored all oxnas includes and finally Debian started to work as expected. Unfortunately, somewhere in 2.6.3x I had to drop LEON support, and then in 3.x - hardware RAID1 (but I tried to keep it in SATA driver). I don't know how to patch RAID subsystem for oxnas now, but if there will be any ideas, I can try and test it. The main idea was (in old kernels) to process with 1 device (as RAID subsystem sees them) whereas SATA driver have to set to appropriate mode and operate with RAID registers instead of SATA ports registers for every device (both HDDs). As we can see from original sources, oxnas supports RAID0 also, but I could not find any documentation about it. Also, I think LEON support can be resurrected, but in 5.10 there are new driver(s) including Synopsis GMAC (now STMicroelectronics) natively without such a support. I have reached the version 4.4.x and wanted to go to the next step - 4.9. But in 4.9 oxnas arch appeared again, with device tree support, remappings, etc.. So I finally decided to rewrite driver with this new rules and at once for kernel 5.10, without intermediate kernel versions (I already spent 4 months on all this, and I wanted to get a working modern OpenWrt as soon as possible). So I get mine driver source for 4.4, your driver source for 5.10 and latest source for ox820 (BTW, in kernel 2.6.24.4 SATA driver for ox810 and ox820 is the same), and try to get uniform and easy debuggable driver (there were so many tests, debugs, data corruption, etc. :)), because I was afraid that the driver will not work with new (yours) DMA driver. But my fears were in vain, the driver immediately started working as expected with new DMA logic. One more thing - there are still two problems I could not get rid of: 1) First qc (as usual, internal) can stuck, then after timeout and followed reset all is OK. I tried all resets, tried some undocumented resets (as from bits titles), tried... but always not better (only worse) than this: after power on almost always first qcs going as expected, and after soft reset - not. BTW, original driver shows same symptoms, I think there is something in hardware. 2) Hot unplug works as expected, but hot plug not: in port 0, if there was no HDD at startup, SATA driver not getting hotplug events, we need to force detection from command line after HDD insertion, for example: https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/404405/how-to-detect-new-hard-disk-attached-without-rebooting/404408 Also, some HDDs may cause system hang when hotplugged. I don't know why. I refactored driver many times but without full success. And one more problem - too few sectors for kernel in default WD MyBook World Edition bootloader's settings: only 5700. It got me thinking about "linux as bootloader" but that's a completely different story.
since we can get the host priv via
ap->host->private_data
At first I did the same - without globals. But then I faced the "chicken or egg" problem in some functions while strictly using specialized I/O access functions (I found, that an universal ones, i.e. "io_read", with specifying raw base offset, is a breeding ground for mistakes), e.g. driver probe, I/O and RAID helpers.
Hello! Tried many times to run OpenWrt with kernel 5.15, but it always hangs after loading modules from rootfs. It doesn't matter which drivers or even what lies on rootfs - Debian or OpenWrt. Console lives and receiving symbols, but that's all. If I select failsafe mode when starting OpenWrt, then I can write some commands, but when I run mount_root - again hang. Now I started to think that driver (SATA or DMA) cannot initiate write process. BTW, on kernel 4.4 there are no problems with writing, Debian and Syncthing on it working like a charm, but this kernel uses old DMA driver... What are you thinking about this? Thank you.
Hello!
Can you please tell me how to add SATA support for ox810se target in device tree? I am trying to get working linux kernel 5.4 on my MBWE, but with no success because of not working SATA driver (PLXTECH NAS782X SATA). As I understand, SATA driver simply not loading because of lack of SATA support in device tree. Please, can you finalize that support or tell me how can I do it considering SATA in ox810se is the same as one in ox820 or, at least, very similar? I am ready to do a lot for it. Simply tell what is required of me.
Thank you!
