It is more than year old... but what I remember is that I was thinking about it but I realized that SDIO devices and SD/MMC cards are too different. Also linux kernel provides for them different sysfs nodes (which mimics what these type of devices provides). So SDIO (for userspace) does not share too much code with SD/MMC. > Note that, if you are willing to help with maintenance of mmc-utils > around this, what would certainly be appreciated too. :-) > > Kind regards > Uffe I do not have time for this project. This is also why I was waiting more than year with sdioutils for testing/improving...
