The expectation is that the driver sets bytes_xfered correctly, based controller errors. The driver is not expected to check for status errors, hence in that case the bytes_xfered is set to 0 by error recovery. > My intention was mostly to improve on the flow of the recovery and get the mmc_is_host_spi out of there for the most part with future patches. > After all it feels weird to do a single step read retry before ensuring a fix_state, and I ran into that quite often. > Unfortunately, I now realized that fix_state cannot properly be implemented within the spec or even real-world card's behavior and I won't be taking this further. > The best attempt I came up with is doing a loop of CMD12 and CMD13 in SPI and if CMD12 was ILLEGAL and CMD12 has no bits set, state is fixed. > But CMD12 is only defined for multiple block transfers in SPI and cards treat it differently on e.g. CMD17 transfers. > Instead I would just do a soft reset for SPI and retry and maybe increase the read timeout of 100ms which larger SD cards can fail sometimes. > Anyway since SPI initialization is quite fast, especially for soft resets there is likely no recovery to beat that performance-wise. > I will send an RFC for the soft reset in the coming days. That sounds like it would be a good improvement to have. > If not I would at least add the !mmc_is_host_spi condition for calling mmc_blk_status_error to make it a bit more clear that this function does do what is intended for SPI cards. I am not sure what you mean. Isn't it OK to check CMD13 response for SPI?
