  5Description:
  6		(RW) Used by drivers which support software controlled activity
  7		LEDs.
  8
  9		It has the following valid values:
 10
 11		==	========================================================
 12		0	OFF - the LED is not activated on activity
 13		1	BLINK_ON - the LED blinks on every 10ms when activity is
 14			detected.
 15		2	BLINK_OFF - the LED is on when idle, and blinks off
 16			every 10ms when activity is detected.
 17		==	========================================================
 18
 19		Note that the user must turn sw_activity OFF it they wish to
 20		control the activity LED via the em_message file.

 27Description:
 28		(RW) Hard disk shock protection
 29
 30		Writing an integer value to this file will take the heads of the
 31		respective drive off the platter and block all I/O operations
 32		for the specified number of milliseconds.
 33
 34		- If the device does not support the unload heads feature,
 35		  access is denied with -EOPNOTSUPP.
 36		- The maximal value accepted for a timeout is 30000
 37		  milliseconds.
 38		- A previously set timeout can be cancelled and disk can resume
 39		  normal operation immediately by specifying a timeout of 0.
 40		- Some hard drives only comply with an earlier version of the
 41		  ATA standard, but support the unload feature nonetheless.
 42		  There is no safe way Linux can detect these devices, so this
 43		  is not enabled by default. If it is known that your device
 44		  does support the unload feature, then you can tell the kernel
 45		  to enable it by writing -1. It can be disabled again by
 46		  writing -2.
 47		- Values below -2 are rejected with -EINVAL

 57Description:
 58		(RW) Write to the file to turn on or off the SATA NCQ (native
 59		command queueing) priority support. By default this feature is
 60		turned off. If the device does not support the SATA NCQ
 61		priority feature, writing "1" to this file results in an error
 62		(see ncq_prio_supported).

 69Description:
 70		(RW) This is the equivalent of the ncq_prio_enable attribute
 71		file for SATA devices connected to a SAS host-bus-adapter
 72		(HBA) implementing support for the SATA NCQ priority feature.
 73		This file does not exist if the HBA driver does not implement
 74		support for the SATA NCQ priority feature, regardless of the
 75		device support for this feature (see sas_ncq_prio_supported).

111KernelVersion:	v6.5
112Contact:	linux-scsi@vger.kernel.org
113Description:
114		(RW) For a device supporting the command duration limits
115		feature, write to the file to turn on or off the feature.
116		By default this feature is turned off.
117		Writing "1" to this file enables the use of command duration
118		limits for read and write commands in the kernel and turns on
119		the feature on the device. Writing "0" disables the feature.
