Hi Simon, I'm working on implementing a driver for SD/MMC cards in the framework GenodeOS. I think you could help me with your experience in this type of implementation in the u-boot. The hardware platform on which the driver will work is a ODROID-x2 (exynos4412). I use the DWMMC contoller, but I'm not sure if this is the right controller to handle SD/MMC cards in Exynos4412 SoC. The SDHCI controller is most appropriate?
If you're using exynos4412 board, you can choose sdhci or dwmmc controller for eMMC, not SD/SDIO. And in my experiment, dwmmc controller is more appropriate than sdhci.(ex, performance)
It depends which mmc channel is used. In Exynos4412, there are 5 channels, but some channel configurations shares GPIO pins: - MMC0 - sdhci - MMC1 - sdhci, or MMC0 8-bit - MMC2 - sdhci - Odroid SD card, 4-bit mode - MMC3 - sdhci - or MMC2 8-bit - MMC4 - dwmmc, uses MMC0 pins for 4-bit, and MMC0-1 for 8-bit mode
Odroid is using MMC2(sdhci) and MMC0/4(sdhci or dwmmc).
So for eMMC cards you can use the dwmmc, and as Jaehoon wrote it is recommended for the better performance, but for SD card you must use sdhci controller.
Best regards,
