[Bug 1895895] Re: Attaching SD-Card to specific SD-Bus Sabrelite (ARM)

[Peter Maydell <1895895@bugs.launchpad.net>]

The fsl-imx* SoC devices need to create aliases onto the sd-buses with
unique names; see discussion here:

Title:
  Attaching SD-Card to specific SD-Bus Sabrelite (ARM)

Status in QEMU:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Currently, I am looking for a method of attaching an sd-card to a
  specific bus as opposed to defaulting to the first.

  QEMU Version: 5.0.0
  Specifically trying to use qemu-system-arm binary

  
  Running an "info qtree" shows the output seen in the attached image. I have attempted multiple different combinations of arguments to attempt to get the sd-card to appear on the FOURTH sd-bus but no luck. The machine type being used is Sabrelite. It should be noted that I was able to PATCH QEMU to achieve the result I expected but I had hoped this functionality was already available and did not require modification to QEMU itself.

  
  For reference, this is the patch that was made to source to allow the card to attach to a specific bus. After the change was made, an sd-card could be attached to a bus with the following flags:

  -drive file=sdcard.img,format=raw,id=mycard -device sd-
  card,drive=mycard,bus=sd-bus.0

  
  diff qemu-5.1.0.orig/hw/sd/sdhci.c qemu-5.1.0/hw/sd/sdhci.c
  1311a1312,1314
  >     static int index=0;
  >     char name[64];
  >     sprintf(name, "sd-bus.%d", index++);
  1313c1316
  <                         TYPE_SDHCI_BUS, DEVICE(s), "sd-bus");
  ---
  >                         TYPE_SDHCI_BUS, DEVICE(s), name);


  If there is a way to attach an sd-card to the specific bus that does
  NOT require this change, I'd appreciate it.
