PATCH 2/3 FIX: mmc: sdhci: Board specific definitions for SDHCI CMD and READ TIMEOUTS

For some boards - e.g. odroid u3, it is necessary to adjust manually those two timeouts.

Exynos4 based boards, which use SDHCI controller to read data from SD cards, have SDHCI_QUIRK_BROKEN_R1B flag set. This quirk requires short timeout values, since in fact it relies on timeout exit, because the controller is not able to read status bit properly for this kind of response.

Change: 29905a451b7ecf86785a4404e926fb14a8daced3, introduced longer timeouts for boards with SDHCI_QUIRK_BROKEN_R1B, which resulted in write speed regression (to ext4 fs via DFU):

Before (31 MiB test file):
32505856 bytes written in 4342 ms (7.1 MiB/s)

After this change:
32505856 bytes written in 20466 ms (1.5 MiB/s)

Such performance regression caused timeouts during DFU write (observed at HWT test setup).

This commit, however introduces possibility to define different timeout values for SDHCI mmc IP blocks embedded in different SoCs (and boards).

This problem was observed only in SDHCI controller, when target board was running solely from SD card.

I have checked this..it's right. how about the below code? I just applied the below patch..then i saw the similar performance.

I think it doesn't needs to set SDHCI_INT_DATA_END.(I think that it can be just removed.)

I have tested with this on Exynos4 boards. It's working fine for eMMC/SD. Could you check this patch?

PATCH 3/3 FIX: mmc: sdhci: exynos4: Define smaller SDHCI timeouts for Exynos4 based boards

In reply to Lukasz Majewski

Those values are necessary to provide SDHCI controller SD card write speed comparable to those before introducing the commit:
29905a451b7ecf86785a4404e926fb14a8daced3.

Such adjustments are required on boards with SDHCI's SDHCI_QUIRK_BROKEN_R1B quirk flag set.

In reply to Lukasz Majewski

This change gives common prefix for SDHCI_READ_STATUS_TIMEOUT.

Hang on, didn't we just intentionally not CONFIG_ this option and not add it to Kconfig? If we're making these tunable they need to be in Kconfig and if needed, non-asked questions, ie:
int SDHCI_READ_STATUS_TIMEOUT
default 100 if FOO_PLATFORM
default 500 if BAR_PLATFORM
default 1000

Thanks!

Apparently, I was not aware of such intentions :-).

I do agree that we should add new options to Kconfig, so with second thoughts I think that this patch was not so good idea...

Thanks!

BTW: I'm testing Jeahoon's patches for fixing this issue, so probably this patch series could be dropped.
