| 6 | (RW) Used by drivers which support software controlled activity | |
| 7 | LEDs. | |

| 10 | ||
| 34433332 | 11 | == ======================================================== |
| 0a65e125 AP |
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. | |
| 34433332 | 17 | == ======================================================== |

| 19 | Note that the user must turn sw_activity OFF it they wish to | |
| 20 | control the activity LED via the em_message file. | |

| 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 | |

| 118 | limits for read and write commands in the kernel and turns on | |
| 119 | the feature on the device. Writing "0" disables the feature. |
