H A Dparide.rstdiff 246a1c4c6b7ffba88a2553d2b88f7b6280f253a2 Mon Jan 23 20:09:54 CET 2023 Ondrej Zary <linux@zary.sk> ata: pata_parport: add driver (PARIDE replacement)

The pata_parport is a libata-based replacement of the old PARIDE
subsystem - driver for parallel port IDE devices.
It uses the original paride low-level protocol drivers but does not
need the high-level drivers (pd, pcd, pf, pt, pg). The IDE devices
behind parallel port adapters are handled by the ATA layer.

This will allow paride and its high-level drivers to be removed.

Unfortunately, libata drivers cannot sleep so pata_parport claims
parport before activating the ata host and keeps it claimed (and
protocol connected) until the ata host is removed. This means that
no devices can be chained (neither other pata_parport devices nor
a printer).

paride and pata_parport are mutually exclusive because the compiled
protocol drivers are incompatible.

Tested with:
- Imation SuperDisk LS-120 and HP C4381A (EPAT)
- Freecom Parallel CD (FRPW)
- Toshiba Mobile CD-RW 2793008 w/Freecom Parallel Cable rev.903 (FRIQ)
- Backpack CD-RW 222011 and CD-RW 19350 (BPCK6)

The following bugs in low-level protocol drivers were found and will
be fixed later:

Note: EPP-32 mode is buggy in EPAT - and also in all other protocol
drivers - they don't handle non-multiple-of-4 block transfers
correctly. This causes problems with LS-120 drive.
There is also another bug in EPAT: EPP modes don't work unless a 4-bit
or 8-bit mode is used first (probably some initialization missing?).
Once the device is initialized, EPP works until power cycle.

So after device power on, you have to:
echo "parport0 epat 0" >/sys/bus/pata_parport/new_device
echo pata_parport.0 >/sys/bus/pata_parport/delete_device
echo "parport0 epat 4" >/sys/bus/pata_parport/new_device
(autoprobe will initialize correctly as it tries the slowest modes
first but you'll get the broken EPP-32 mode)

Note: EPP modes are buggy in FRPW, only modes 0 and 1 work.
