Hi,

I'm aware that the DDR50 mode is not fully supported. The clock appears to be 
unstable when SDCARD host running with DDR50 mode. We have a workaround that 
introduce a new quirk to force host with broken DDR50 mode to run with SDR25 
mode. As we think that this workaround might not be suitable to be upstream to 
mainline kernel, this workaround will be implemented in our valleyisland-io 
feature branch in future. We are now working on backporting our features from 
mainline kernel to LTSI/LTS kernel. And eventually all those workaround that do 
not fit upstream criteria will be implemented temporary in feature branch.

I'm not sure whether I can provide you the workaround patch here. I will work 
with our driver developers in order to help you in this. You may file a bug in 
bugzilla so that we got track on your enquiry. Thanks a lot.

Rebecca

Subject: Valleyisland SDIO support

Hello Rebecca,
thanks for your recently work with the Baytrail board. I can confirm that the 
image in dora branch is working with full OpenGL support.
Here is another question relating to the SDIO controller embedded into the atom 
processor.
In the intel specifiction update from january 2014 
(http://www.intel.com/content/dam/www/public/us/en/documents/specification-updates/atom-Z36xxx-Z37xxx-spec-update.pdf)
 there is an entry named "VLT55 SD Card UHS - I Mode is Not Fully Supported".
We have issues here with sd cards from sandisk which are running into error 
messages like

These messages appears in the kernel log buffer after inserting an sd card 
SanDisk Extreme 30 MB/s, class 10 UHS 1 8GB (vendor name in sysfs is SU08G).
Further investigations reveals that the error reproduce is related to the kind 
of sd card, filesystem on the partition aso.
I think that the errata vlt55 leads to the messages in the log. Have you 
experienced some similar issues with the Z3000 atom series? Or is there some 
plans or possibilities to disable the UHS feature for the SDIO device embedded 
in the atom cpu? I know that in the specification update there is currently the 
"no fix" entry. But maybe there is some "quick-and-dirty" fix like a 
"SDHCI_QUIRK2_BROKEN_UHS" define or so in the sdhci module in the kernel.
If you wish i can also fill a bug in bugzilla.
