(Correction in this resend: fixed function name acer_sa5_271_workaround; fixed the always-true condition in the function; fixed description.) On the Acer Switch Alpha 12 (model number: SA5-271), the internal SSD may not get detected because the port_map and CAP.nr_ports combination causes the driver to skip the port that is actually connected to the SSD. More specifically, either all SATA ports are identified as DUMMY, or all ports get ``link down'' and never get up again. This problem occurs occasionally. When this problem occurs, CAP may hold a value of 0xC734FF00 or 0xC734FF01 and port_map may hold a value of 0x00 or 0x01. When this problem does not occur, CAP holds a value of 0xC734FF02 and port_map may hold a value of 0x07. Overriding the CAP value to 0xC734FF02 and port_map to 0x7 significantly reduces the occurrence of this problem.

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.
