Looking at the sdhci code, if the regulator is missing then we still attempt to place the controller is 1.8V mode ... static int sdhci_start_signal_voltage_switch(struct mmc_host *mmc, struct mmc_ios *ios) { ... case MMC_SIGNAL_VOLTAGE_180: if (!IS_ERR(mmc->supply.vqmmc)) { ret = regulator_set_voltage(mmc->supply.vqmmc, 1700000, 1950000); if (ret) { pr_warn("%s: Switching to 1.8V signalling voltage failed\n", mmc_hostname(mmc)); return -EIO; } } /* * Enable 1.8V Signal Enable in the Host Control2 * register */ ctrl |= SDHCI_CTRL_VDD_180; sdhci_writew(host, ctrl, SDHCI_HOST_CONTROL2); /* Some controller need to do more when switching */ if (host->ops->voltage_switch) host->ops->voltage_switch(host); /* 1.8V regulator output should be stable within 5 ms */ ctrl = sdhci_readw(host, SDHCI_HOST_CONTROL2); if (ctrl & SDHCI_CTRL_VDD_180) return 0; pr_warn("%s: 1.8V regulator output did not became stable\n", mmc_hostname(mmc)); return -EAGAIN; Ideally, the above *should* fail if the regulator is missing. However, what I have found, is that in my case, even though the regulator is missing, the above succeeds and the host thinks we are operating at 1.8V even though we are still at 3.3V! It seems that this does not happen with all SD cards that support UHS. This patch resolves the problems I am seeing on beaver with SD card initialisation failing. I am surprised this is not causing problems for others? That said, looking at the schematics for the board, this patch looks correct to me and we should apply this and mark for stable as this appears to be broken for sometime. Note that even before Lucas' changes in the SD card init we will try to switch to 1.8V if the cards supports it and the controller is greater or equal to sdhci v3.
