[PATCH v2] mmc: mvsdio: fix non-DT probing of GPIOs

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

 



Ralph Droms <rdroms.ietf@xxxxxxxxx> reported that 3.9-rc was breaking
the SDIO interface on his Sheevaplug platform, and that the recent
changes to the mvsdio driver are responsible for this breakage.

After investigation, is turns out that the Sheevaplug does not have
any "card detect" GPIO, and the Sheevaplug has not been converted to
the Device Tree. Therefore, the Sheevaplug board code does not define
a value for the .gpio_card_detect field of the mvsdio_platform_data
structure, which means that its value is 0. Unfortunately,
gpio_is_valid() considers 0 as a valid GPIO, and therefore calls
mmc_gpio_request_cd(), which fails and makes the entire probing of the
driver fail.

In fact, in the previous mvsdio code, before the Device Tree binding
was introduced, 0 was not considered as a valid GPIO. Therefore, this
fix revert back to this behavior in the non-DT case, by setting the
gpio_card_detect and gpio_write_protect local variables to -EINVAL
when the corresponding fields of the mvsdio_platform_data structure
are set to zero (i.e, left undefined). Of course, it prevents to use
GPIO 0 as a card detect or write protect GPIO, but it was a defiency
of the previous non-DT code, and the fix moving forward is to convert
platforms to the Device Tree.

The problem has been reproduced successfully on the Kirkwood-based
Marvell DB-88F6281-BP Development Board (that doesn't use the Device
Tree) and the fix has proven to work properly, after of course
removing the gpio_card_detect field of the mvsdio_platform_data
instance for this board.

This patch should be applied on 3.9-rcX.

Changes between v1 and v2:
 * Send the patch to the MMC maintainer instead of the Marvell
   maintainers.
