libpayload: New AHCI, ATA and ATAPI drivers
This adds a new interface for storage devices. A driver for ATA and ATAPI drives on AHCI host controllers comes along. The interface is very simple and was designed to match FILO's needs. It consists of three functions: void storage_initialize(void); Initializes controllers. Should be called once at startup. storage_poll_t storage_probe(size_t dev_num); with typedef enum { POLL_NO_DEVICE = -2, POLL_ERROR = -1, POLL_NO_MEDIUM = 0, POLL_MEDIUM_PRESENT = 1, } storage_poll_t; Looks for a drive with number dev_num (drives are counted from zero) and polls for a medium in the drive if appropriate. int storage_read_blocks512(size_t dev_num, u64 start, size_t count, unsigned char *buf); Reads count blocks of 512 bytes from block start of drive dev_num into buf.
