RE: [PATCH 2/4 v4] MMC/SD: Add callback function to detect card

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi, Johan,
When quicks SDHCI_QUIRK_BROKEN_CARD_DETECTION is set, the driver will poll the card status with the command CMD13 periodically, then many interrupts will be generated, which affect the performance.

Yes, some cases to detect GPIO can't be trusted, so I only just implement this callback in eSDHC-of driver. that is to say, just when the platform support it, this callback can be implement, if not, continue to send the command CMD13.
