DESCRIPTION
The pciide driver supports the PCI IDE controllers as specified in the
"PCI IDE controller specification, revision 1.0" draft, as well as the
Serial ATA controllers working either in parallel ATA compatibility mode
or in native serial mode. It provides the core functions for the wd(4)
and atapiscsi(4) drivers. This driver includes specific, enhanced
support for the CMD Tech PCI0640 controller and IDE DMA/UltraDMA support
for the following PCI IDE controllers:
o Acard ATP850U, ATP860, ATP860-A, ATP865-A, ATP865-R

Some of these controllers are only available in multifunction PCI chips.
The 0x0001 flag forces the pciide driver to use DMA when there is no
explicit DMA mode setting support for the controller but DMA is present.
If the BIOS didn't configure the controller properly, this can cause a
machine hang.

There's no way to know reliably if a CMD064x controller is enabled or
not. If the driver finds a PCI064x, it will assume it is enabled unless
PCIIDE_CMD064x_DISABLE is specified in the kernel config file. This will
be a problem only if the controller has been disabled in the BIOS and
another controller has been installed which uses the ISA legacy I/O ports
and interrupts.
The CMD0646U is reportedly unable to operate properly in UltraDMA mode.
UltraDMA will not be enabled on this controller unless
PCIIDE_CMD0646U_ENABLEUDMA is specified in the kernel config file.
For proper operation of UltraDMA 3 and higher modes a 40-pin, 80-
conductor cable must be used. On some controllers, the pciide driver can
probe the chip and see if it detects that an 80-conductor or 40-conductor
cable was used. If not, it will down-grade to UltraDMA 2 mode. On other
controllers, no such capability exists, and the driver assumes you are
using an 80-conductor cable. If you are getting errors about corrupted
data, check to make sure you are using the correct cable. An 80-
conductor cable is recommended for any IDE installation, not just ones
using faster UltraDMA modes, because it will decrease electrical noise
and increase data reliability.
The AMD756 chip revision D2 has a bug affecting DMA (but not Ultra-DMA)
modes. The workaround documented by AMD is to not use DMA on any drive
which does not support Ultra-DMA modes. This does not appear to be
necessary on all drives, the PCIIDE_AMD756_ENABLEDMA option can be used
to force multiword DMA on the buggy revisions. Multiword DMA can
eventually be disabled on a per-drive basis with config flags, see wd(4).
The bug, if triggered, will cause a total system hang.
The timings used for the PIO and DMA modes for controllers listed above
are for a PCI bus running at 30 or 33 MHz. These timings will work on a
slower bus, but they may cause errors on an over-clocked bus.
