 Hello Marek,

 Can this counter / the right side of the comparison not overflow?

Yes it can -- what do you suggest to make it overflow-safe in this
particular case ?

 Hi/Ahoj :)
 
 I'm using latest git source of U-Boot on Raspberry Pi Compute Module
 and performance of fatload is quite bad.  Does anyone have any clue
 about what can be wrong?  Is it the lack of cache?

 Sample boot log:
 ...

 reading zImage
 4003816 bytes read in 48930 ms (79.1 KiB/s)

 I see this too. I bisected it to:
 33fe2fb8df01 ARM: mmc: bcm283x: Remove get_timer_us() from mmc driver

 Marek, this is the second symptom I bisected to this patch. Something
 seems quite wrong with it. Did changing to the other timer function
 change the timer tick rate or something? FWIW, sleep 10 at the shell
 prompt appears to run for the correct amount of time, so I guess it's
 not that.
 
 H, get_timer() returns msecs, not usecs. I wonder what I was smoking.
 Can you try with the attached diff please (I only compile-tested it) ?

Thanks for the quick fix; it works great.

 I think you meant Marek Vašut. I'm Marek by last name :).
 
 We're both Czech though ;-)

Oops. Must check my auto-completes more thoroughly!

Hello Marek,

-while (get_timer(bcm_host-last_write)  bcm_host-twoticks_delay)
+while (timer_get_us()  bcm_host-last_write + 
bcm_host-twoticks_delay)

 ;

Can this counter / the right side of the comparison not overflow?

Regards,
Jeroen
