NAME

       sil_dev_config - Apply device/host-specific errata fixups

SYNOPSIS

       void sil_dev_config(struct ata_device * dev);

ARGUMENTS

       dev
	   Device to be examined

DESCRIPTION

       After the IDENTIFY [PACKET] DEVICE step is complete, and a device is known to be present, this function is called. We apply two errata
       fixups which are specific to Silicon Image, a Seagate and a Maxtor fixup.

       For certain Seagate devices, we must limit the maximum sectors to under 8K.

       For certain Maxtor devices, we must not program the drive beyond udma5.

       Both fixups are unfairly pessimistic. As soon as I get more information on these errata, I will create a more exhaustive list, and apply
       the fixups to only the specific devices/hosts/firmwares that need it.

       20040111 - Seagate drives affected by the Mod15Write bug are blacklisted The Maxtor quirk is in the blacklist, but I'm keeping the original
       pessimistic fix for the following reasons... - There seems to be less info on it, only one device gleaned off the Windows driver, maybe
       only one is affected. More info would be greatly appreciated. - But then again UDMA5 is hardly anything to complain about

NAME

       Image::ExifTool::Fixup - Utility to handle pointer fixups

SYNOPSIS

	   use Image::ExifTool::Fixup;

	   $fixup = new Image::ExifTool::Fixup;

	   # add a new fixup to a pointer at the specified offset in data
	   $fixup->AddFixup($offset);

	   # add a new Fixup object to the tree
	   $fixup->AddFixup($subFixup);

	   $fixup->{Start} += $shift1;	 # shift pointer offsets and values

	   $fixup->{Shift} += $shift2;	 # shift pointer values only

	   # recursively apply fixups to the specified data
	   $fixup->ApplyFixups($data);

	   $fixup->Dump();		 # dump debugging information

DESCRIPTION

       This module contains the code to keep track of pointers in memory and to shift these pointers as required.  It is used by ExifTool to
       maintain the pointers in image file directories (IFD's).

NOTES

       Keeps track of pointers with different byte ordering, and relies on Image::ExifTool::GetByteOrder() to determine the current byte ordering
       when adding new pointers to a fixup.

       Maintains a hierarchical list of fixups so that the whole hierarchy can be shifted by a simple shift at the base.  Hierarchy is collapsed
       to a linear list when ApplyFixups() is called.
