struct ata_port_operations is defined for every low-level libata
hardware driver, and it controls how the low-level driver
interfaces with the ATA and SCSI layers.
</para>
<para>
FIS-based drivers will hook into the system with ->qc_prep() and
->qc_issue() high-level hooks. Hardware which behaves in a manner
similar to PCI IDE hardware may utilize several generic helpers,
defining at a bare minimum the bus I/O addresses of the ATA shadow
register blocks.
