Hi, again, Edward.

 Bad news...

Again, you would need to fetch them from the returned FIS structure. 
Here's a code fragment derived from SiI's issue_soft_reset() function:

	struct Port_Registers *port_base = yadayada;
	struct sil_port_priv *pp = ap->private_data;
	struct Port_Registers *PR;	/* in memory */
	dma_addr_t paddr = pp->pc_dma; /* physical address base */

	PR = (struct Port_Registers *) (&pp->pc->mregs);
	port_base = yadayada;
	slot = 0;
	slotp = &PR->Slot[slot];
	memset(&slotp->Prb, 0, sizeof(slotp->Prb));
	slotp->Prb.Control = 0x80;		/* soft reset */
	slotp->Prb.FisType == 0;
	writel(paddr, &port_base->CmdActivate[slot].s.ActiveLow);
	if (!sil_wait_for_completion(port_base)) {
		/* timeout or error */
		return ATA_DEV_NONE;
	} else {
		/* Examine slot for taskfile registers */
		slotp = port_base->Slot[slot];
		if (slotp->Prb.FisType != 0x34 &&
		    slotp->Prb.FisType != 0x5F) {
			/* WTF?  Wrong FIS Type */
			return ATA_DEV_NONE;
		}
		if (slotp->Prb.CylLow == 0 &&
		    slotp->Prb.CylHigh == 0)
			return ATA_DEV_ATA;
		if (slotp->Prb.CylLow == 0x14 &&
		    slotp->Prb.CylHigh == 0xEB)
			return ATA_DEV_ATAPI;
		if (slotp->Prb.CylLow == 0x69 &&
		    slotp->Prb.CylHigh == 0x96)
			return ATA_DEV_PORT_MULTIPLIER;
		printk(KERN_WARN "unknown ATA device signature %x.%x\n",
			slotp->Prb.CylLow, slotp->Prb.CylHigh);
		return ATA_DEV_NONE;
	}

 Reading FIS off the cotroller's PRB doesn't seem to work.  I've added
the following code to the preview sil24 driver after completing soft
reset.

	writel((u32) paddr, &port_base->CmdActivate[0].s.ActiveLow);
	if (!sil_wait_for_completion(port_base)) {
		struct Port_Request_Block *prb = &port_base->Slot[0].Prb;
		printk("POSTRESET c:p=%04x:%04x rc=%08x\n"
		       "fis=%08x:%08x:%08x:%08x\n",
		       prb->Control, prb->Protocol, prb->ReceiveCount,
		       prb->AsDword_1, prb->AsDword_2,
		       prb->AsDword_3, prb->AsDword_4);
		return ATA_DEV_ATA; 
	} else	{
		 printk("sata_sil24: Port Not Ready status=%x\n",
				port_base->CtrlSetStatus);
		return ATA_DEV_NONE;
	}

 And, this is what I get.

sata_sil24: Issuing soft reset to phys=1f4f2000
POSTRESET c:p=0080:0000 rc=00000000
fis=01500000:00000001:00000000:00000001

 Which, apparantly, isn't a valid D2H FIS.

 Here are some more dumps of contoller's PRB from my sil24 driver.
PRE ISSUE is the values of PRB regs before issueing a command.  CMD is
the command to issue in the consistent memory.  POST ISSUE and POST
INTR are respectively after issueing a command and processing a
interrupt.

** POST RESET
c:p=ffff:ffff rc=00000200
fis=0050fc90:e0000000:00000000:00000000
** PRE ISSUE
c:p=ffff:ffff rc=00000200
fis=0050fc90:e0000000:00000000:00000000
** CMD
c:p=0000:0000 rc=00000000

** POST ISSUE

** POST INTERRUPT
c:p=0200:0000 rc=00000200

ata6: dev 0 ATA, max UDMA7, 312581808 sectors: lba48

 Is there something more to do to get received FIS from PRB?

 Thanks.
