Is the intention of the IOCATAREINIT->ata_reinit() from ata-all.c to
rediscover new disks?
The atacontrol man page seems to indicate that it should:
reinit Reinitialize an ATA channel. Both devices on the channel are
reset and initialized to the parameters the ATA driver has
stored internally. Devices that have gone bad and no longer
respond to the probe, or devices that have physically been
removed, are removed from the kernel. Likewise are
devices that
show up during a reset, probed and attached.
Looking at ata_reinit() however shows no indication of being able to
find or discover new disks.
So is this a mis-read on my part or something else?
