[PATCH] ahci: enable prefetching

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Enable prefetching.  This hints AHCI controller that it can prefetch
PRT entries and CDB (for PACKET commands).  This is a hint.  AHCI
controller is free to ignore it or prefetch regardless of this bit.

Note that prefetching bit should be turned off for NCQ commands or
FIS-based switching PM support.
