No. The SDHCI_CARD_CDPL[bit13] reflect the pin level: CDPL: Card detect pin level. This bit reflects the inverse value of the SDHC_CD pin for the card socket. 0 No card present (SDHC_CD = 1) 1 Card present (SDHC_CD = 0) So, this bit has the same effect as SDHCI_CARD_PRESENT[bit15], the difference is that debouncing is not performed on this bit. Freescale's controller supports the card detection, if card is present, none-zero will be returned, otherwise, zero will be returned. You can see my other patch [3/4], I add one callback to detect the card state in special platform: if the controller supports card detection, this callback will be performed in special platform (e.g. sdhci-of-esdhc.c) and return the card state (present or absent), if controller doesn't support card detection, this callback will be not performed and return -ENOSYS. -- 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
