Subject: [PATCH] mci: only write blocks when card out of programming mode
Date: Tue, 13 Dec 2022 15:12:04 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20221213141204.1860400-1-a.fatoum@pengutronix.de> (raw)

eMMC Spec v5.1 (JEDEC Standard No. 84-B51) is quite clear that:

  Due to legacy reasons, a Device may still treat CMD24/25 during
  prg-state (while busy is active) as a legal or illegal command.
  A host should not send CMD24/25 while the Device is in the prg
  state and busy is active.

So far, we had never evaluated MMC_CMD_SEND_STATUS. This patch
corrects this and thereby resolves an issue of timed out writes
with the atmel_mci driver:

  barebox@SAMA5D4:/ saveenv
  ERROR: atmel_mci fc000000.mmc@fc000000.of: command/data timeout
  ERROR: atmel_mci fc000000.mmc@fc000000.of: command/data timeout

These issues are not new, but were first reported in 2018[0] along
with a workaround suggesting a delay at the end of atmci_request:

  if (cmdidx == MMC_CMD_STOP_TRANSMISSION)
	mdelay(5)

Just before the command timing out, we read 0x00c00_0025 from the
status register, which is

  CMDRDY | TXRDY | NOTBUSY | XFERDONE | FIFOEMPTY

which suggests the issue is not at the MCI host side, but rather at
the card side. With this patch applied and debugging enabled, this
seems to be confirmed:

  barebox@SAMA5D4:/ saveenv
  saving environment
  mmc1: Ready polling took 0ms
  mmc1: Ready polling took 4ms

I compared with AT91Bootstrap[1], U-Boot[2] and Trusted Firmware-A[3]
and all of them poll MCI status after block writes.

The sequence imported here is taken from U-Boot, but instead of doing
it after writes, we do it before them in hope that we need not always
incur the extra delay.

I don't have an answer why this was only necessary on the SAMA5D3/4 and
such issues weren't observed with other drivers. Card was operated
at 50MHz (SD HS) and I didn't observe differences when trying other
cards. I tested this change also on a Beaglebone Black where an
environment is also stored into FAT on a SD-Card operated with 50 MHz:
Ready polling took 0ms for each of the two writes.

For next, not master. I intend to test this change across more devices
in the coming weeks.
