Haibo,

Thanks for the response.

Yes, this issue is seen on the IMX6DQ and IMX6SDL. Can you point me to
information on this bug? I don't see it in the latest IMX6DQCE.pdf
errata document.

unfortunately, this does not resolve the issue. I tried
ESDHC_TUNE_CTRL_MIN of 15, 20, and 30 and they all produce the same
issue around 20% of insertions:
sdhci-esdhc-imx 2198000.usdhc: tunning failed at 0x7f ret -84

Here are some min/max tuning values from some various cards I have:
- Samsung SL08G DDR50: min=8 max=37
- Kingston SD8GB DDR50: min=8 max=36
- Sandisk SS16G DDR50: min=10 max=37
- Sandisk SU08G DDR50: min=9 max=36
- Samsung Pro 00000 SDR104: min=14 max=26
- Kingston SDR104 SDCIT: min=25 max=36

All of the DDR50 cards above fail in the same way appx 20% of insertions.

Has anyone else been able to confirm they see the same issue on IMX6
boards with UHS-I support and DDR50?

Regards,

Tim
