Hi Wolfsang: Maybe I don't describe my thoughts clearly and exactly. I feel it's not easy to add the the IO-accessors in every cmd execution procedure, to make a double check why a IO-accessor is needed or not.

The following codes are used to solve non-sdio part. That bit is introduced by imx53 latest spec. I think so too that the SDHCI_VENDOR_SPEC shouldn't be used in sdhci.c file, but I don't have better idea to fix the issue in this situation. Option: Make a double check when issue every MMC CMD, to figure out whether a IO-accessor is needed or not? Two checkpoints would be needed, one is in the sdhci_send_command function, the other should be in sdhci_data_finish func.

As I know that, this bit is used to make the machine stat of the eSDHC IC to be a correct stat after SDIO Multi-Read. > > Regards, > > Wolfram > > -- > Pengutronix e.K. | Wolfram Sang > | > Industrial Linux Solutions | http://www.pengutronix.de/ > | -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-mmc" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
