Finally managed to build a kernel with this version of the patchset. While I'm not polling anymore, I'm getting a lot of interrupts if the card is not inserted. Theses interrupts are not happening if the card is inserted. I can see things like this in the logs : sdhci [sdhci_irq()]: *** mmc0 got interrupt: 0x00000080 [ of course, the bit of the present state register indicating card presence is equal to 0 ] I've tested the SIGNAL case only. Don't know if switch to GPIO may help. Do you have same kind of issue on your side ?
