Crate ata

Basic driver for accessing ATA drives (IDE) as a storage device.

The primary struct of interest is AtaDrive.

Support for DMA is not yet implemented, but the slower port-based I/O is fully supported.

Structs

• AtaDrive
  A single ATA drive, either a master or a slave, which sits on one of two buses within a larger IDE controller.
• AtaError
  The possible error values found in an ATA drive’s error port.
• AtaFirmwareVersion
  An ATA drive’s firmware version is an 8-byte string.
• AtaIdentifyData
  Information that describes an ATA drive, obtained from the response to an identify command.
• AtaModelNumber
  An ATA drive’s model number is a 40-byte string.
• AtaSerialNumber
  An ATA drive’s serial number is a 20-byte string.
• AtaStatus
  The possible status values found in an ATA drive’s status port.
• IdeController
  A single IDE controller has two buses with up to two drives attached to each bus, for a total of up to four drives.
• IdeControllerIter
  Provides an iterator over all AtaDrives in an IdeController. See the IdeController::iter() method.

Enums

• AtaDeviceType
  The possible types of drive devices that can be attached to an IDE controller via ATA.
