One is for SD card and the other is for eMMC. Although both of them are embedded in the same SoC, the design of delay cell and the manufacture process are different. The delay phase is definitely different and, thus, we need a flag, compatible, to distinguish the device, SD or eMMC. Without "aspeed,ast2600-emmc" compatible, of course, eMMC device can work with original sdhci driver and device tree setting. But, for ultra-speed or HS200 case, AST2600 SoC needs some phase delay which (maximum) value is different between SD and eMMC device. > > > > > Signed-off-by: Chin-Ting Kuo <chin-ting_kuo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> > > --- > > Documentation/devicetree/bindings/mmc/aspeed,sdhci.yaml | 1 + > > 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+) > > > > diff --git a/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/mmc/aspeed,sdhci.yaml > > b/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/mmc/aspeed,sdhci.yaml > > index 5bb66849df65..41105cd104c6 100644 > > --- a/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/mmc/aspeed,sdhci.yaml > > +++ b/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/mmc/aspeed,sdhci.yaml > > @@ -52,6 +52,7 @@ patternProperties: > > - aspeed,ast2400-sdhci > > - aspeed,ast2500-sdhci > > - aspeed,ast2600-sdhci > > + - aspeed,ast2600-emmc > > reg: > > maxItems: 1 > > description: The SDHCI registers > > -- > > 2.17.1 > > > >
