 *

 * need them), increment it by RATE*(MAX-MIN) whenever we sense that the
 * pipeline is empty, until we reach the optimum value or until we reach MAX.

/*
 * DSC polling parameters.
 *
 * Polling for DSC (a single bit in the status register) is a very important
 * function in ide-tape. There are two cases in which we poll for DSC:
 *
 * 1. Before a read/write packet command, to ensure that we can transfer data
 * from/to the tape's data buffers, without causing an actual media access.
 * In case the tape is not ready yet, we take out our request from the device
 * request queue, so that ide.c could service requests from the other device
 * on the same interface in the meantime.
 *
 * 2. After the successful initialization of a "media access packet command",
 * which is a command that can take a long time to complete (the interval can
 * range from several seconds to even an hour). Again, we postpone our request
 * in the middle to free the bus for the other device. The polling frequency
 * here should be lower than the read/write frequency since those media access
 * commands are slow. We start from a "fast" frequency - IDETAPE_DSC_MA_FAST
 * (1 second), and if we don't receive DSC after IDETAPE_DSC_MA_THRESHOLD
 * (5 min), we switch it to a lower frequency - IDETAPE_DSC_MA_SLOW (1 min).
 *
 * We also set a timeout for the timer, in case something goes wrong. The
 * timeout should be longer then the maximum execution time of a tape operation.

/*
 * Packet Command Interface
 *
 * The current Packet Command is available in tape->pc, and will not change
 * until we finish handling it. Each packet command is associated with a
 * callback function that will be called when the command is finished.
 *
 * The handling will be done in three stages:
 *
 * 1. idetape_issue_pc will send the packet command to the drive, and will set
 * the interrupt handler to idetape_pc_intr.
 *
 * 2. On each interrupt, idetape_pc_intr will be called. This step will be
 * repeated until the device signals us that no more interrupts will be issued.
 *
 * 3. ATAPI Tape media access commands have immediate status with a delayed
 * process. In case of a successful initiation of a media access packet command,
 * the DSC bit will be set when the actual execution of the command is finished.
 * Since the tape drive will not issue an interrupt, we have to poll for this
 * event. In this case, we define the request as "low priority request" by
 * setting rq_status to IDETAPE_RQ_POSTPONED, set a timer to poll for DSC and
 * exit the driver.
 *
 * ide.c will then give higher priority to requests which originate from the
 * other device, until will change rq_status to RQ_ACTIVE.
 *
 * 4. When the packet command is finished, it will be checked for errors.
 *
 * 5. In case an error was found, we queue a request sense packet command in
 * front of the request queue and retry the operation up to
 * IDETAPE_MAX_PC_RETRIES times.
 *
 * 6. In case no error was found, or we decided to give up and not to retry
 * again, the callback function will be called and then we will handle the next
 * request.
