 From the code logic, without SDHCI_QUIRK_BROKEN_CARD_DETECTION for

As a result, we can quickly return ENOMEDIUM error without command sending. 
Finally mmc_rescan can know the card
is removed.

Yes, that's the existing implementation, which does not require retry
sending MMC_SEND_STATUS to know if card is removed.

On the other hand, with SDHCI_QUIRK_BROKEN_CARD_DETECTION for ESDHC_CD_GPIO, we 
will just send MMC_SEND_STATUS
command (cd_irq->sdhci_tasklet_card->mmc_recan->mmc_sd_detect->mmc_sd_alive), 
and we will find error since the card
is already gone. Finally, we shall also know the card is removed.

This is really strange why the removal message shows up together with the next 
card inserting message.
Could u pls tell us more about what actually happened when the card is removed 
with my patches? Did the GPIO interrupt
happen? Was mmc_rescan() called? Did mmc_sd_detect() finally find error when it 
sent MMC_SEND_STATUS? What step did
the card removing procedure arrive at? Really really thanks a lot:-)

I just tracked it down a little bit.  Interesting enough, it depends on
how I remove the card.  If I do it slowly, when the gpio interrupt
triggers the MMC_SEND_STATUS query, the command can still retrieve
the card status successfully.  Thus driver does not detect the card
removal.  If I remove the card from slot quickly, I can see the removal
message.

Shawn,
Thanks for your interesting input.

From your info, we can see that on your platform, those pins (including
power, clk, DATA) necessary for MMC_SEND_STATUS transaction still keep
connected for some time just after the GPIO's level changes due to card
removable. And if we remove the card very slowly, such time duration can be
such long that the MMC_SEND_STATUS query can still succeed.

So I think we can add a proper delay(maybe 100ms) before the gpio interrupt
triggers the MMC_SEND_STATUS query, and maybe this can probably fix this 
issue:-)


With your patch series, in ESDHC_CD_GPIO case the driver will have
to send MMC_SEND_STATUS (with retry) to card for knowing its presence.
This is also an unpleasant behavior comparing to the existing code.
I think we should query gpio state to know card presence for this case.

Shawn


Anyway, I 100% agree with you that for a ESDHC_CD_GPIO card, we shall query gpio
state to know such card's presence rather than sending MMC_SEND_STATUS rudely.

But just as I mentioned before, I don't think using 
SDHCI_QUIRK_BROKEN_CARD_DETECTION
as the flag to determine whether and how we can know card's presence before 
sending
command is a proper way.

I haven't gotten any good idea. Do u have any idea on this?
