Cover letter [U-Boot] [PATCH 0/3] samsung: Add mmc controller to use dw mmc
Quoted 19 lines · Lukasz Majewski
Hi Beomho,
Quoted 6 lines
This patch set for use dw mmc controller.
First, add dw mmc controller initialization.
And then, change exynos4 mmc gpio configuration. Additionally, I have removedexynos4x12_set_mmc_clkfunction. Becausesamsung_get_base_clock()(exynos4x12/ exynos4) return same value.Thank you for supporting the
DW_MMCon Trats2.I've got following comments:
1. Piotr Wilczek (added to CC) is moving the Trats/Trats2 board to support configuration via device tree. From device tree it is easier to seamlessly enable support for
DW_MMC(SDMMC4 controller) - at least we would avoid adding new #ifdefs. The way to enable it is almost identical to Exynos5250 (board "snow").

Now the v4 has been sent, so please look (and probably rebase your work) on them:
"[PATCH V4 00/12] Exynos4: add support for device tree"

Ok. It will be change to use the dt file.

2. We did some rough tests for the
DW_MMCimplementation on Trats2 (with clock phase settings similar to the one in the kernel) and it turned out that SDHCI is faster.Two possible explanations:
- DDR is not supported by memory embedded on Trats2
- We did something wrong, so as a result the DDR mode for DW_MMC/eMMC memory was not working properly.
DDR mode didn't implement at u-boot. It need to update code for DDR mode. If you want to use DDR mode, then i will implement it.

However, I still believe, that
DW_MMCwith properly enabled DDR could outperform SDHCI.
Right, If DW-mmc is used with DDR mode, then it's more better than SDHCI. there is no reason that we didn't use the dw-mmc controller at trats2 board.

Why this speedup is important?
We struggle to reduce time needed for flashing large images (like rootfs - e.g. 400 MiB in size).

Any help is more than welcome :-).
3. u-boot general advice:
When you alter things related to a particular board (like trats2 in this case) it is welcome to add the board's maintainer to CC. You can find them at boards.cfg.
Maybe, need to add Samsung-SoC maintainer, and base on SoC repository.
Best Regards,

This patch set is tested on Trats2 board.
