[PATCH v4] mmc: block: prevent propagating R1_OUT_OF_RANGE for open-ending mode

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

 



We to some extent should tolerate R1_OUT_OF_RANGE for open-ending
mode as it is expected behaviour and most of the backup partition
tables should be located near some of the last blocks which will
always make open-ending read exceed the capacity of cards.

Fixes: 9820a5b11101 ("mmc: core: for data errors, take response of stop cmd into account")
Fixes: a04e6bae9e6f ("mmc: core: check also R1 response for stop commands")

Changes in v4:
- improve for more readable and remove Yoshihiro's tag, add Wolfram's
  tag

Changes in v3:
- add explanation for why don't check predefined method
- check brq->mrq.sbc for easier to read suggested by Wolfram

Changes in v2:
- fix a typo and introduce STOP_ERROR
- reword the comment and always include a description from the spec if possible
