AHCI provides information on this, but it's not sufficiently reliable to allow it to be used in-kernel. Exposing this to userspace allows a more informed policy decision to be made. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
