I have the need to hardware partition eMMC devices from U-Boot along with setting enhanced and reliable write attributes.
This series of patches adds this support to U-Boot via a new mmc API, a few new members of struct mmc and a new mmc sub-command. It also features several fixes to the eMMC hardware partition support. I have tested this with Micron eMMC 4.41 parts and it is working as expected.
This is really great, thanks.
I do wonder(I am fairly new to eMMC) about 512B emulation. In mmc utils there is a: mmc disable 512B emulation <device> Set the eMMC data sector size to 4KB by disabling emulation on <device>.
I am hoping 4K size will increase performance and reliability? Could you add this feature too to your patch set?
