commit cf3fc037623c54de48d2ec1a1ee686e2d1de2d45 upstream.
Commit 8ae720449f ("libata: whitespace fixes in ata_to_sense_error()")
inadvertantly added the entry 0x40 (ATA_DRDY) to the stat_table array in
the function ata_to_sense_error(). This entry ties a failed qc which has
a status filed equal to ATA_DRDY to the sense key ILLEGAL REQUEST with
the additional sense code UNALIGNED WRITE COMMAND. This entry will be
used to generate a failed qc sense key and sense code when the qc is
missing sense data and there is no match for the qc error field in the
sense_table array of ata_to_sense_error().
As a result, for a failed qc for which we failed to get sense data (e.g.
read log 10h failed if qc is an NCQ command, or REQUEST SENSE EXT
command failed for the non-ncq case, the user very often end up seeing
the completely misleading "unaligned write command" error, even if qc
was not a write command. E.g.:
sd 0:0:0:0: [sda] tag#12 FAILED Result: hostbyte=DID_OK driverbyte=DRIVER_OK cmd_age=0s
sd 0:0:0:0: [sda] tag#12 Sense Key : Illegal Request [current]
sd 0:0:0:0: [sda] tag#12 Add. Sense: Unaligned write command
sd 0:0:0:0: [sda] tag#12 CDB: Read(10) 28 00 00 00 10 00 00 00 08 00
I/O error, dev sda, sector 4096 op 0x0:(READ) flags 0x80700 phys_seg 1 prio class 0
Fix this by removing the ATA_DRDY entry from the stat_table array so
that we default to always returning ABORTED COMMAND without any
additional sense code, since we do not know any better. The entry 0x08
(ATA_DRQ) is also removed since signaling ABORTED COMMAND with a parity
error is also misleading (as a parity error would likely be signaled
through a bus error). So for this case, also default to returning
ABORTED COMMAND without any additional sense code. With this, the
previous example error case becomes:
sd 0:0:0:0: [sda] tag#17 FAILED Result: hostbyte=DID_OK driverbyte=DRIVER_OK cmd_age=0s
sd 0:0:0:0: [sda] tag#17 Sense Key : Aborted Command [current]
sd 0:0:0:0: [sda] tag#17 Add. Sense: No additional sense information
sd 0:0:0:0: [sda] tag#17 CDB: Read(10) 28 00 00 00 10 00 00 00 08 00
I/O error, dev sda, sector 4096 op 0x0:(READ) flags 0x80700 phys_seg 1 prio class 0
Together with these fixes, refactor stat_table to make it more readable
by putting the entries comments in front of the entries and using the
defined status bits macros instead of hardcoded values.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
