WDC(9) BSD Kernel Developer's Manual WDC(9)
NAME
wdc -- machine-independent IDE/ATAPI driver
SYNOPSIS
#include <dev/ata/atavar.h>
#include <sys/dev/ic/wdcvar.h>
int
wdcprobe(struct channel_softc * chp);
void
wdcattach(struct channel_softc * chp);
DESCRIPTION
The wdc driver provides the machine independent core functions for driving IDE devices. IDE devices-specific drivers (wd(4) or atapibus(4))
will use services provided by wdc.
The machine-dependent bus front-end provides informations to wdc with the wdc_softc and channel_softc structures. The first one defines
global controller properties, and the second contains per-channel informations. wdc returns informations about the attached devices in the
ata_drive_datas structure.

The bus front-end needs to fill in the following elements of wdc_softc:
cap supports one or more of the WDC_CAPABILITY flags
nchannels number of channels supported by this controller
channels array of struct channel_softc of size nchannels properly initialised
The following elements are optional:
pio_mode
dma_mode
dma_arg
dma_init
dma_start
dma_finish
claim_hw
free_hw
The WDC_CAPABILITY_DATA16 and WDC_CAPABILITY_DATA32 flags informs wdc whether the controller supports 16- or 32-bit I/O accesses on the data
port. If both are set, a test will be done for each drive using the ATA or ATAPI IDENTIFY command, to automatically select the working mode.
The WDC_CAPABILITY_DMA and WDC_CAPABILITY_UDMA flags are set for controllers supporting the DMA and Ultra-DMA modes. The bus front-end needs
to provide the dma_init(), dma_start() and dma_finish() functions. dma_init() is called just before issuing a DMA command to the IDE device.
The arguments are, respectively: dma_arg, the channel number, the drive number on this channel, the virtual address of the DMA buffer, the
size of the transfer, and the WDC_DMA flags. dma_start() is called just after issuing a DMA command to the IDE device. The arguments are,
respectively: dma_arg, the channel number, the drive number on this channel, and the WDC_DMA flags. dma_finish() is called once the transfer
is complete. The arguments are, respectively: dma_arg, the channel number, the drive number on this channel, and the WDC_DMA flags.
WDC_DMA_READ indicates the direction of the data transfer, and WDC_DMA_POLL indicates if the transfer will use (or used) interrupts.
The WDC_CAPABILITY_MODE flag means that the bus front-end can program the PIO and DMA modes, so wdc needs to provide back the supported modes
for each drive, and set the drives modes. The pio_mode and dma_mode needs to be set to the highest PIO and DMA mode supported. If
WDC_CAPABILITY_UDMA is set, then dma_mode must be set to the highest Ultra-DMA mode supported. If WDC_CAPABILITY_MODE is not set, wdc will
not attempt to change the current drive's settings, assuming the host's firmware has done it right.
The WDC_CAPABILITY_HWLOCK flag is set for controllers needing hardware looking before accessing the I/O ports. If this flag is set, the bus
front-end needs to provide the claim_hw() and free_hw() functions. claim_hw() will be called when the driver wants to access the controller
ports. The second parameter is set to 1 when it is possible to sleep waiting for the lock, 0 otherwise. It should return 1 when access has
been granted, 0 otherwise. When access has not been granted and sleep is not allowed, the bus front-end shall call wdcrestart() with the
first argument passed to claim_hw() as argument. This arguments will also be the one passed to free_hw(). This function is called once the
transfer is complete, so that the lock can be released.
Accesses to the data port are done by using the bus_space stream functions, unless the WDC_CAPABILITY_ATA_NOSTREAM or
WDC_CAPABILITY_ATAPI_NOSTREAM flags are set. This should not be used, unless the data bus is not wired properly (which seems common on big-
endian systems), and byte-order needs to be preserved for compatibility with the host's firmware. Also note that the IDE bus is a little-
endian bus, so the bus_space functions used for the bus_space tag passed in the channel_softc have to do the appropriate byte-swapping for
big-endian systems.
WDC_CAPABILITY_NO_EXTRA_RESETS avoid the controller reset at the end of the disks probe. This reset is needed for some controllers, but
causes problems with some others.
WDC_CAPABILITY_NOIRQ tells the driver that this controller doesn't have its interrupt lines wired up usefully, so it should always use polled
transfers.
The bus front-end needs to fill in the following elements of channel_softc:
channel The channel number on the controller
wdc A pointer to the controller's wdc_softc
cmd_iot, cmd_ioh
Bus-space tag and handle for access to the command block registers (which includes the 16-bit data port)
ctl_iot, ctl_ioh
Bus-space tag and handle for access to the control block registers
ch_queue A pointer to a struct channel_queue. This will hold the queues of outstanding commands for this controller.
The following elements are optional:
data32iot, data32ioh
Bus-space tag and handle for 32-bit data accesses. Only needed if WDC_CAPABILITY_DATA32 is set in the controller's
wdc_softc.
ch_queue can point to a common struct channel_queue if the controller doesn't support concurrent access to its different channels. If all
channels are independent, it is recommended that each channel has its own ch_queue (for better performance).
The bus-specific front-end can use the wdcprobe() function, with a properly initialised struct channel_softc as argument ( wdc can be set to
NULL. This allows wdcprobe() to be easily used in bus front-end probe functions). This function will return an integer where bit 0 will be
set if the master device has been found, and 1 if the slave device has been found.
The bus-specific attach function has to call wdcattach() for each channel, with a pointer to a properly initialised channel softc as argu-
ment. This will probe devices attached to the IDE channel and attach them. Once this function returns, the ch_drive array of the
channel_softc will contain the drive's capabilities. This can be used to properly initialise the controller's mode, or disable a channel
without drives.
The elements of interest in ata_drive_datas for a bus front-end are:
drive The drive number
drive_flags
Flags indicating the drive capabilities. A null drive_flags indicate either that no drive is here, or that no driver was
found for this device.
PIO_mode, DMA_mode, UDMA_mode
the highest supported modes for this drive compatible with the controller's capabilities. Needs to be reset to the mode to
use by the drive, if known.
drv_softc A pointer to the drive's softc. Can be used to print the drive's name.
drive_flags handles the following flags:
DRIVE_ATA, DRIVE_ATAPI
Gives the drive type, if any. The shortcut DRIVE can be used to just test the presence/absence of a drive.
DRIVE_CAP32
This drive works with 32-bit data I/O.
DRIVE_DMA This drive supports DMA.
DRIVE_UDMA This drive supports Ultra-DMA.
DRIVE_MODE This drive properly reported its PIO and DMA mode.
Once the controller has been initialised, it has to reset the DRIVE_DMA and DRIVE_UDMA, as well as the values of PIO_mode, DMA_mode and
UDMA_mode if the modes to be used are not highest ones supported by the drive.

CODE REFERENCES
The wdc core functions are implemented in sys/dev/ic/wdc.c. Low-level ATA and ATAPI support is provided by sys/dev/ata_wdc.c and
sys/dev/scsipi/atapi_wdc.c respectively.
An example of a simple bus front-end can be found in sys/dev/isapnp/wdc_isapnp.c. A more complex one, with multiple channels and bus-master
DMA support is sys/dev/pci/pciide.c. sys/arch/atari/dev/wdc_mb.c makes use of hardware locking, and also provides an example of bus-front
end for a big-endian system, which needs byte-swapping bus_space functions.
