DetailsThe ata_wakeup() function does the opposite of ata_sleep(), it spins up the hard-disk in background.
This makes it possible to start the disk in advance to reduce access time later. It also eliminates some duplicate code lines in ata.c. |
This task depends upon
One remark, though: don't add functions to the plugin API in the middle of the struct, it breaks binary compatibility. You should add them at the end. FYI, when the struct is reordered, the plugin API version needs to be bumped.
Is it possible to sync it?

If the patch is no more useful because it was included in the main trunk or it became "obsolete", should it mark as closed?
Thanks for the attention.
I hope this works...
