Con:
- The scanning code gets less clear as you increase the number of
possible paths through it.
- Different systems will have different init sequences, possibly
provoking bugs in the cards.
- Host driver writers now have more capability bits they have to
consider. And these might be less than obvious since SD/MMC/SDIO are
normally compatible so these bits seem useless.
- With the current logic (which was better in the first version),
"normal" drivers will have to explicitly state that they work as
intended by setting all bits.
And the pro is objective.
Pro:
- A slightly reduced scanning time.
That's great! Why do you disregard this so easily?
Ping. Adrian, do you have any initialisation times for this patch? I'm
afraid I don't have any eMMC hardware, so I'm not able to gather any
numbers.
Sorry for the slow reply.
Results in microseconds:
before after
eMMC 194145 193641
uSD 4143 2129
However, that excludes powering up. For example the pbias setting
on omap_hsmmc for MMC1 (uSD for us) has a 100ms delay.
So the difference is negligible.
Although, the notion of unnecessarily sending SDIO commands
to an uSD, and SDIO and SD commands to an eMMC, seems wrong.
Especially when trying to debug very-hard-to-reproduce errors.
