On our board we would occationally see what looked like a kernel hang while doing RPMB operations, some additional printk debugging revealed that in the trouble case data such as this was being sent to the kernel: [ 109.076981] idata[0]->ic->opcode = 0x19 [ 109.077027] idata[0]->ic->arg = 0x0 [ 109.080954] idata[0]->ic->write_flag = 0x1 [ 109.084691] idata[0]->ic->is_acmd = 0x0 [ 109.089007] idata[0]->ic->flags = 0xb5 [ 109.092949] idata[0]->ic->blocks = 0x1 [ 109.096865] idata[0]->ic->blksz = 0x200 [ 109.100791] idata[0]->ic->postsleep_min_us = 0x7473696e [ 109.104745] idata[0]->ic->postsleep_max_us = 0x34383370 [ 109.110167] idata[0]->ic->data_timeout_ns = 0x7265632d [ 109.115494] idata[0]->ic->data_ptr = 00000000e7ddd4cd [ 109.120832] idata[0]->rpmb = 00000000ffab5640 [ 109.126077] idata[1]->ic->opcode = 0x12 [ 109.130622] idata[1]->ic->arg = 0x0 [ 109.135451] idata[1]->ic->write_flag = 0x0 [ 109.139153] idata[1]->ic->is_acmd = 0x0 [ 109.143437] idata[1]->ic->flags = 0xb5 [ 109.147553] idata[1]->ic->blocks = 0x1 [ 109.151420] idata[1]->ic->blksz = 0x200 [ 109.155251] idata[1]->ic->postsleep_min_us = 0x652d6873 [ 109.159166] idata[1]->ic->postsleep_max_us = 0x35353264 [ 109.164561] idata[1]->ic->data_timeout_ns = 0x632d3931 [ 109.169915] idata[1]->ic->data_ptr = 00000000bc641ed4 [ 109.175152] idata[1]->rpmb = 00000000ffab5640 Therefor, zero-init the MMC_IOC_MULTI_CMD structures to avoid the obscene sleep values.
