No problem about that. In my mind it is not dependant of how my hardware works (I mean at SoC level), if someone decides to not use the card detect of the host and to use a gpio instead, of course he can. > > > >> Currently, sdhci disables card detect interrupts when runtime suspended, > >> and drivers use a card-detect GPIO to wake-up. > >> > > > > It is what I have seen going through the sdhci layer.

I don't know if we are talking about the same thing. In sdhci_runtime_suspend_host(), we set SDHCI_INT_CARD_INT as a kind of wakeup irq before considering the host as suspended (host->runtime_suspended = true), isn't it? Why not adding SDHCI_INT_CARD_INSERT | SDHCI_INT_CARD_REMOVE? In my case, it allows me to use runtime PM to disable two clocks and keep one enabled (I need this one to get the irq) when suspending the device. > > Regarding card detects in runtime PM: > > If you have an option to use GPIO IRQs or it's possible to configure > the card detect IRQ as a wakeup in any other way, runtime PM works > fine. > It will depend of the customer but I am not sure I'll want to use a pio as a gpio for this if there is a pio routed to the sdhci controller. > Now, when the card detect *can't* be configured as a wakeup in runtime > suspend mode, there are two options. > > 1) Rely on using MMC_CAP_NEEDS_POLL. > 2) Prevent runtime PM. > > Which option that's preferred is SoC/ mmc controller dependent. > Although but please consider below recommendations. > > - In some cases using polling works really well, as the the mmc core > get fast/easy information about whether a card is inserted or not, via > the ->get_cd() host ops. > > - In some cases ->get_cd() is broken (or not implemented) and always > returns a value indicating a card is inserted.

I know we have some issues with a wifi SDIO module and runtime PM but I have to investigate on this topic but I suspect something as the wifi driver doesn't claim it is using the sdhci controller. > >> > return 0; > >> > > >> > pm_runtime_disable: > >> > > >> > > Kind regards > Uffe Regards Ludovic -- 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
