SATA-IO Confidential 17
• Issue and complete one tracks worth of read commands using the DMA protocol with transfer size of greater
than 8Kbytes but less than or equal to 128Kbytes, followed by issue and completion of another tracks worth of
read commands using the DMA protocol to the same disk location that the previous reads were completed.
The test shall verify that the contents read have the same values that were read initially.
There are several test scenarios that are required when testing an ATAPI device for this test requirement, all of which
shall be tested 5 times each to verify passing of the test. The tests below are for ATAPI devices which support writing
to media.
• Issue IDENTIFY PACKET DEVICE to device
• Issue and complete one tracks worth of write commands using the DMA protocol with transfer size of less
than or equal to 8Kbytes, followed by issue and completion of one tracks worth of read commands using the
DMA protocol to the same disk locations where the previous writes were completed. The test shall verify that
the contents read have the same values that were previously written.
• Issue and complete one tracks worth of write commands using the DMA protocol with transfer size of greater
than 8Kbytes but less than or equal to 128Kbytes, followed by issue and completion of one tracks worth of
read commands using the DMA protocol to the same disk locations where the previous writes were
completed. The test shall verify that the contents read have the same values that were previously written.
• Verify Word 49 bit 8 set to one in IDENTIFY DEVICE or IDENTIFY PACKET DEVICE
Pass/Fail Criteria
• Verify that data read is equal to data initially written (or read in case of ATAPI read-only device)
• If neither MWDMA or UDMA type is supported, then the result is fail
2.1.4. GTR-04 – General SATA Support
2.1.4.1. Device Expected Behavior
See sections 13.2.1 and 13.2.2 of Serial ATA Revision 2.6.
For all Serial ATA devices, the entire contents of Word 93 in IDENTIFY DEVICE or IDENTIFY PACKET DEVICE data
shall be cleared to zero.
For all Serial ATA devices, support for the 1.5Gb/s interface rate is required. This can be verified through Word 76 bit
1 in IDENTIFY DEVICE or IDENTIFY PACKET DEVICE data. This bit shall be set to one for all Serial ATA devices.
• Issue IDENTIFY DEVICE or IDENTIFY PACKET DEVICE to device
Measurement Requirements
• Verify Word 93 is cleared to zero in IDENTIFY DEVICE or IDENTIFY PACKET DEVICE
Pass/Fail Criteria
• Verify Word 76 bit 1 is set to one in IDENTIFY DEVICE or IDENTIFY PACKET DEVICE
2.1.5. GTR-05 : Unrecognized FIS receipt (Informative)
2.1.5.1. Device Expected Behavior
See section 10.3.1.1 of Serial ATA Revision 2.6.
The receiver of an “unrecognized FIS” shall follow the link layer state machine definitions in section 9.6 of the Serial
ATA Revision 2.6 specification upon receipt of an “unrecognized FIS”. The expected response is status return with an
R_ERR.
Note that determination of any FIS being ‘unrecognized’ is done by the recipient of the FIS. The contents of the
“Unrecognized FIS” are not defined by this document, but shall be described in each applicable MOI.
