Changes are basically to make it look like kernel structure. --- Documentation/mmc/mmc-dev-attrs.txt | 76 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 76 insertions(+) create mode 100644 Documentation/mmc/mmc-dev-attrs.txt (limited to 'Documentation/mmc/mmc-dev-attrs.txt') diff --git a/Documentation/mmc/mmc-dev-attrs.txt b/Documentation/mmc/mmc-dev-attrs.txt new file mode 100644 index 00000000..22ae8441 --- /dev/null +++ b/Documentation/mmc/mmc-dev-attrs.txt @@ -0,0 +1,76 @@ +SD and MMC Block Device Attributes +================================== + +These attributes are defined for the block devices associated with the +SD or MMC device. + +The following attributes are read/write. + + force_ro Enforce read-only access even if write protect switch is off. + +SD and MMC Device Attributes +============================ + +All attributes are read-only. + + cid Card Identifaction Register + csd Card Specific Data Register + scr SD Card Configuration Register (SD only) + date Manufacturing Date (from CID Register) + fwrev Firmware/Product Revision (from CID Register) (SD and MMCv1 only) + hwrev Hardware/Product Revision (from CID Register) (SD and MMCv1 only) + manfid Manufacturer ID (from CID Register) + name Product Name (from CID Register) + oemid OEM/Application ID (from CID Register) + serial Product Serial Number (from CID Register) + erase_size Erase group size + preferred_erase_size Preferred erase size + +Note on Erase Size and Preferred Erase Size: + + "erase_size" is the minimum size, in bytes, of an erase + operation.

For SD, "erase_size" is 512 + if the card is block-addressed, 0 otherwise. + + SD/MMC cards can erase an arbitrarily large area up to and + including the whole card. When erasing a large area it may + be desirable to do it in smaller chunks for three reasons: + 1. A single erase command will make all other I/O on + the card wait. This is not a problem if the whole card + is being erased, but erasing one partition will make + I/O for another partition on the same card wait for the + duration of the erase - which could be a several + minutes. + 2. To be able to inform the user of erase progress. + 3. The erase timeout becomes too large to be very + useful. Because the erase timeout contains a margin + which is multiplied by the size of the erase area, + the value can end up being several minutes for large + areas. + + "erase_size" is not the most efficient unit to erase + (especially for SD where it is just one sector), + hence "preferred_erase_size" provides a good chunk + size for erasing large areas. + + For MMC, "preferred_erase_size" is the high-capacity + erase size if a card specifies one, otherwise it is + based on the capacity of the card. + + For SD, "preferred_erase_size" is the allocation unit + size specified by the card. + + "preferred_erase_size" is in bytes. + +SD/MMC/SDIO Clock Gating Attribute +================================== + +Read and write access is provided to following attribute. +This attribute appears only if CONFIG_MMC_CLKGATE is enabled. + + clkgate_delay Tune the clock gating delay with desired value in milliseconds. + +echo > /sys/class/mmc_host/mmcX/clkgate_delay -- cgit
