Having received one of the new Arrow SoCkit boards at a recent training day I set about seeing how far mainline was in successfully booting this board.

As I wanted to boot from mmc, I first checked out linux-next [1] in order to get the newly merged mmc driver, I then applied the device-tree enablement series [2] on top before finally attempting to boot. I then found that the standard socfpga_defconfig didn't enable the MMC drivers, which I also did (should this be part of the socfpga_defconfig...?).

However, the boot hangs at:

Synopsys Designware Multimedia Card Interface Driver dwmmc_socfpga ff704000.dwmmc0: Using internal DMA controller. dwmmc_socfpga ff704000.dwmmc0: DW MMC controller at irq 171, 32 bit host data width, 1024 deep fifo

To fix this I checked out the diff between the Altera vendor mmc driver and the mainline driver and found that if I added this small change:

   if (of_property_read_u32(dev->of_node, "pwr-en", &pwr_en)) {
     dev_info(dev, "couldn't determine pwr-en, assuming pwr-en = 0\n");
     pwr_en = 0;
   }

   /* Set PWREN bit */
   mci_writel(host, PWREN, pwr_en);

In the dw_mci_socfpga_priv_init function, the board would boot.

Synopsys Designware Multimedia Card Interface Driver dwmmc_socfpga ff704000.dwmmc0: couldn't determine pwr-en, assuming pwr-en = 0
dwmmc_socfpga ff704000.dwmmc0: Using internal DMA controller. dwmmc_socfpga ff704000.dwmmc0: DW MMC controller at irq 171, 32 bit host data width, 1024 deep fifo
mmc_host mmc0: Bus speed (slot 0) = 100000000Hz (slot req 400000Hz, actual 400000HZ div = 125)
dwmmc_socfpga ff704000.dwmmc0: 1 slots initialized dwmmc_socfpga ff704000.dwmmc0: Version ID is 240a
.....
.....
.....

Has this been overlooked, or are there some other changes elsewhere that I haven't yet come across which addresses this?

Cheers,

I was going to update this when I enable ethernet as well to avoid less churn on the defconfig.

I tested this on my devkit, which was not made by Arrow, but is _almost_ the same. I'll try to see if I can get my hands on an Arrow board to reproduce.

Now, I think I made a _slight_ mistake, in that I accidentally copied the Altera vendor kernel onto the sdcard instead of the linux-next kernel. Re-testing this morning with a fresh mind, I checked the config again and now I find the Arrow board still won't boot from MMC, even with the above change, with the code hanging at the same place.

I know you don't have an Arrow board, but if you have a tree which I could pull from with your amalgamated changes; that would rule out me missing any patches and it actually being a board problem. I can't seem to see if the V8 device tree patches were pulled into anyones tree, otherwise I would just wait till they appeared in 3.11-rc1...?

Sorry for the confusion!

Unfortunately, the device tree bindings for the SD/MMC did not make it into the arm-soc tree for 3.11, only the sd/mmc platform driver. Will try for 3.12.

I'm sure you have seen git.rocketboards.org?

Yes, I have the 3.9 rocketboards kernel compiling and working so I'm not stuck; just interested in keeping up to date with how mainline is progressing and helping with testing (and nit picking!).
