[U-Boot] [PATCH v2] mmc: Split device init to decouple OCR-polling delay

From: Che-Liang Chiou clchiou@chromium.org
Most of time that MMC driver spends on initializing a device is polling OCR (operation conditions register). To decouple this polling loop, device init is split into two parts: The first part fires the OCR query command, and the second part polls the result. So the caller is now no longer bound to the OCR-polling delay; he may fire the query, go somewhere and then come back later for the result.
To use this, call mmc_set_preinit() on any device which needs this.
This can save significant amounts of time on boot (e.g. 200ms) by hiding the MMC init time behind other init.

Is it saved the 200ms? Could you tell me your environment? I will check this patch..and share the result.

The environment is snow (Samsung ARM Chromebook). The time save only comes from not waiting for the MMC init. So:
1. Kick off MMC init 2. Go off and do something else for 200ms 3. Come back and MMC init should complete immediately

Hi,
This concept is very good. But I have one question. I think need to call mmc_init() one more, right? how did you save the boot time(200ms)?

Most of time that MMC driver spends on initializing a device is polling OCR (operation conditions register). To decouple this polling loop, device init is split into two parts: The first part fires the OCR query command, and the second part polls the result. So the caller is now no longer bound to the OCR-polling delay; he may fire the query, go somewhere and then come back later for the result.
To use this, call mmc_set_preinit() on any device which needs this.
This can save significant amounts of time on boot (e.g. 200ms) by hiding the MMC init time behind other init.

It's a little confusing, but the way it works is that mmc_preinit() calls mmc_start_init() early in boot. Then when mmc_init() finally gets called (later) it finishes off the init. We still need mmc_init() to actually fully complete the init. If it were to return before completing the init then we would be unable to use the MMC.

OK thanks. Assuming that make sure that the pre-init is definitely done, I suggest you then make U-Boot go and do something else for 200ms, then do the full mmc init after that. It should complete immediately.
So there is no time saving in mmc init, but you can do something else while waiting for the MMC init to complete (it takes 200ms or so for me).
Another thing to note with eMMC is that we probe for SD first. This takes a little bit of time. We could perhaps use device tree to provide information about the type of attached memory, and thus avoid that probe.
