  Thanks to Alan Cox for pointing out similarities 
  between SATA and SCSI, and in general for motivation to hack on
  libata.
  libATA is a library used inside the Linux kernel to support ATA host
  controllers and devices.  libATA provides an ATA driver API, class
  transports for ATA and ATAPI devices, and SCSI&lt;-&gt;ATA translation
  for ATA devices according to the T10 SAT specification.
  </para>
  <para>
  libata's device detection
  method, ata_pio_devchk, and in general all the early probing was
  based on extensive study of Hale Landis's probe/reset code in his
  ATADRVR driver (www.ata-atapi.com).
  This Guide documents the libATA driver API, library functions, library
  internals, and a couple sample ATA low-level drivers.

     FIS-based drivers will hook into the system with ->qc_prep() and

     similar to PCI IDE hardware may utilize several generic helpers,
