First of all the reset values of MMC interfaces are differently between Quad and DualLite/Solo SoM. Register VEND_SPEC2(0xC8) Quad: 0x0 DualLite: 0x00000006 default: 0x00000006 (from i.MX6 Reference Manual) Furthermore the ROM Code of Quad and DualLite uses the MMC interfaces differently when it loads the bootloader from that device: Register DLL_CTRL(0x60) Bit 25 FBCLK_SEL (0x48) Quad: 0x0 0 DualLite: 0x01000021 1 Since the linux kernel and barebox driver doesn't reset all registers, the MMC interface is in an inconsistent state, which leads to boot failures for some eMMC devices on the i.MX6 DualLite SoM. The errors look like: mmcblk3: error -110 sending stop command, original cmd response 0x900, card status 0x400900 mmcblk3: error -84 transferring data, sector 24578, nr 2, cmd response 0x900, card status 0x0 mmcblk3: retrying using single block read mmcblk3: error -84 transferring data, sector 24578, nr 2, cmd response 0x900, card status 0x0 blk_update_request: I/O error, dev mmcblk3, sector 24578 It's sufficient to reset register DLL_CTRL and bit FBCLK_SEL. Register VEND_SPEC2 has no effect. Signed-off-by: Stefan Christ --- Hi, there is already a corresponding kernel patch, but it's not sufficient: http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-mmc/msg36331.html commit db79ac243f04a7a0ee43246c51667881f7736c56 Author: Dong Aisheng Date: Mon Dec 14 15:31:43 2015 +0800 MLK-12000 mmc: sdhci-esdhci-imx: disable DLL delay line settings explicitly Disable DLL delay line settings explicitly during driver initialization in case ROM/uBoot had set an invalid delay. e.g. MX6DL ROM has set the default delay line(DLLCTRL) to 0x1000021, the uSDHC clock timing will become marginal when works on DDR mode due to default delay and will possibly see CRC errors in cause the board is not perfectly designed on the eMMC chip layout. It only resets the register DLL_CTRL, but the bit FBCLK_SEL must be also be reseted.
