This patch provides a workaround a SoC bug where SATA IPTTs for different devices may conflict. The workaround solution requests the following: 1. SATA device id must be even and not equal to SAS IPTT. 2. SATA device can not share the same IPTT with other SAS or SATA device. Besides we shall consider IPTT value 0 is reserved for another SoC bug (STP device open link at firstly after SAS controller reset). To sum up, the solution is: Each SATA device uses independent and continuous 32 even IPTT from 64 to 4094, then v2 hw can only support 63 SATA devices. All SAS device(SSP/SMP devices) share odd IPTT value from 1 to 4095.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
