Sorry, I simply missed that. Hmmm, another hard coded value :(

I was just referring to using "<at>" instead of "@". The provider
doesn't really matter :)

Yeah, thought that, too. I also wondered if we then just could not
always write our own value to DMA_ADDRESS. This is redundant on working
hardware, but the the check is not much cheaper than just doing it.

Would that change also be beyond your comfort zone?

I was imagining something like:

#define SDHCI_DEFAULT_BOUNDARY_SIZE     (512 * 1024)

which could be used directly in your code and later like

SDHCI_MAKE_BLKSZ(ilog2(SDHCI_DEFAULT_BOUNDARY_SIZE) - 12, ...);

(Maybe the ilog2-thingie could be another macro)

So, it could go if we make that dependent if I understand correctly.

Oh, and what I forgot to say last time:

Thanks a lot for your debugging efforts! I read the bugzilla entry and
your persistency for nailing the cause is greatly appreciated. Good
work.

All the best,
