[PATCH] mmc: sdhci: remove mdelay in eMMC tuning

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

 



This patch removes an unneccesary 1ms mdelay in the HS200 tuning
loop, called 40 times per retuning. Currently this causes a latency
of >40ms on any emmc accesses triggering wake from runtime PM,
which can occur for a significant portion of reads on a mostly idle system.

The delay is left in place for SD Cards, which use
MMC_SEND_TUNING_BLOCK rather than MMC_SEND_TUNING_BLOCK_HS200.
I'm not able to find evidence that this is required for SD in the
specs I have access to, however this delay has been present from
initial checkin for SD so I have preserved the original behavior for
compatibility.

This has been verified to fix observed glitching on local audio
playback and recording on apps with inbuilt assumptions on storage
latency.
