The datasheet explicitly mentions that this bit doesn't apply to the eMMC controller, and the BSP is doing the same: https://github.com/longsleep/linux-pine64/blob/lichee-dev-v3.10.65/drivers/mmc/host/sunxi-mmc-sun50iw1p1-1.c vs https://github.com/longsleep/linux-pine64/blob/lichee-dev-v3.10.65/drivers/mmc/host/sunxi-mmc-sun50iw1p1-2.c And I definitely remember having HS-DDR working back when I added the a64 eMMC support.

Yes I know that doesn't exist for the eMMC controller. I mentioned this in the commit message. It doesn't exist, and writes to it become a no-op.

My BPI-M64 reports: [ 1.634276] mmc2: new high speed MMC card at address 0001 And with the patch: [ 1.632552] mmc2: new DDR MMC card at address 0001 Regards ChenYu -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-mmc" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html

Maybe we should move the calibration under can_calibrate though, or create another boolean for this? Putting it under has_new_timings while the SoC doesn't use it looks very confusing. Maxime

IIRC we don't support calibration anyway. This boolean simply signals the usage of the new timing mode, whether by choice, or because it is the only mode the controller supports.

This is not the semantic I had in mind when I introduced it. The original intent was to set the new timing bit all the time for SoCs. If we want to change that semantic, then we also need to make sure what this bit means is documented properly. Maxime

In the driver: /* hardware only supports new timing mode */ bool needs_new_timings; /* hardware can switch between old and new timing modes */ bool has_timings_switch; So if the A64 / H6 eMMC controller only supports / is stuck with the new timing mode, that surely fits the description of the first one, right? As for setting the new timing bit all the time, yes it is set, but it's a no-op. Would a comment clarifying this at the point the hardware bit is set suffice?

The eMMC controller is also a new timing mode controller, but it doesn't have the timing mode switch. It does however have signal delay and calibration controls, typical of Allwinner MMC controllers that support the new timing mode. Enable the new timing mode setting for the A64 eMMC controller. This also enables MMC HS-DDR modes, which gives higher throughput for eMMC chips that support it, and can deliver such throughput.
