This way the code can be common for various hosts. Let's take look at linux - there is SDHCI_QUIRK_CAP_CLOCK_BASE_BROKEN flag, thanks to which the host controller driver can override the capability register value during initialization. Most common method here ends up in clk_get_rate () call and this quirk is used by overall 10 different controllers. Modifying BaseClkFreq type and assignment during driver initialization (if needed) will be IMO better for maintenance than creating a custom version of SdMmcHcClockSupply routine. Is there any chance I might have convinced you?:) Thanks, Marcin _______________________________________________ edk2-devel mailing list edk2-devel@lists.01.org https://lists.01.org/mailman/listinfo/edk2-devel
