Although, I am wondering why exactly is 100 a good value for retries? Did you encounter this problem and tried to limit the loop to 100 to fix the problem - or is the fix done based on pure code analysis? An option to limit the loop with retries is to bail out when a timer elapses. Perhaps that is better suited for this case or what do you think? > ret = mmc_io_rw_direct(card, 0, 0, ptr++, 0, &tpl_code); > if (ret) > @@ -318,6 +319,9 @@ static int sdio_read_cis(struct mmc_card *card, struct sdio_func *func) > prev = &this->next; > > if (ret == -ENOENT) { > + tries--; > + if (!tries) > + break; > /* warn about unknown tuples */ > pr_warn_ratelimited("%s: queuing unknown" > " CIS tuple 0x%02x (%u bytes)\n", > -- > 2.25.1 > Kind regards Uffe
