Looks good to me. Just a generic question, probably more for Ulf:

Why does this CAP_ERASE exist? As I understand, the driver only needs to
set the flag and no further handling is required. Why would a driver not
set this flag and not support erase/trim commands?

Kind regards,

   Wolfram

I am working on removing the cap, altogether. Step by step, this is
getting closer now.

The main problem has been about busy detect timeouts, as an erase
command may have a very long busy timeout. On the host side, they
typically need to respect the cmd->busy_timeout for the request, and
if it can't because of some HW limitation, it needs to set
mmc->max_busy_timeout.

Once that is fixed for all, we can drop CAP_ERASE.

Kind regards
Uffe

FWIW we've discussed such concerns internally, based on past commits
which either disable [1-2] busy timeouts or increase their value [3].

To get a feeling if this is relevant for R-Car3, I've run blkdiscard on
a 64 GiB eMMC without noticing any issues on v5.4-rc7. Hopefully this
is sufficient as testing?

Let's first take a step back, because I don't know how the HW busy
detection works for your controller.

I have noticed there is TMIO_STAT_CMD_BUSY bit being set for some
variants, which seems to cause renesas_sdhi_wait_idle() to loop for a
pre-defined number of loops/timeout. This looks scary, but I can't
tell if it's really a problem.

BTW, do you know what TMIO_STAT_CMD_BUSY actually is monitoring?

I have also noticed that MMC_CAP_WAIT_WHILE_BUSY isn't set for any of
the renesas/tmio variant hosts. Is that simply because the HW doesn't
support this? Or because implementation is missing?

If you want to run a test that stretches the behaviour on the timeout
path, I would rather use an SD-card (the older the better). For eMMCs
the erase likely translates to a trim/discard, which is far more
quicker than a real erase - as is what happens on an old SD card.

That should be okay. The datasheet mentions that some registers can only
be accessed when either CBSY or SCLKDIVEN bits signal non-busyness.
renesas_sdhi_wait_idle() is for that.

> BTW, do you know what TMIO_STAT_CMD_BUSY actually is monitoring?

0: A command sequence has been completed.
1: A command sequence is being executed.

Good thing we use public development. I recalled we discussed this
before but I needed a search engine to find it again:

https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/8114821/

Summary: The HW (at least since Gen2) has HW support for busy timeout
detection but I never came around to implement it (and even forgot about
it :( ). So, we still use a workqueue for it.

Kind regards,

   Wolfram

Hopefully Wolfram just addressed that?

Running 'blkdiscard' with different SD cards on H3ULCB, I don't see any
signs of misbehavior:

root@rcar-gen3:~# blkdiscard -V
blkdiscard from util-linux 2.32.1

root@rcar-gen3:~# lsblk
NAME         MAJ:MIN RM  SIZE RO TYPE MOUNTPOINT
mmcblk0      179:0    0 59.2G  0 disk

mmcblk0boot1 179:16   0    4M  1 disk
mmcblk1      179:24   0   30G  0 disk

# Erasing 32 GiB uSD Card
root@rcar-gen3:~# time blkdiscard -v /dev/mmcblk1
/dev/mmcblk1: Discarded 32227983360 bytes from the offset 0

real    0m1.198s
user    0m0.001s
sys     0m0.122s

# Erasing 64 GiB eMMC

real    0m8.703s
user    0m0.002s
sys     0m1.909s

I guess that by decreasing below erase sizes, I could further increase
the execution time, but these sysfs properties are read-only:

cat /sys/devices/platform/soc/ee100000.sd/mmc_host/mmc1/mmc1:59b4/preferred_erase_size
4194304
cat /sys/devices/platform/soc/ee100000.sd/mmc_host/mmc1/mmc1:59b4/erase_size

I had a vague memory about this discussion as well, thanks for giving
the pointers to it.

I think using a workqueue for scheduling a reset work with a timeout
of 5 s, as in your case.

However, as a heads up, if/when implementing support for busy
detection and adding MMC_CAP_WAIT_WHILE_BUSY, needs to update that
timeout according to cmd->busy_timeout, which is provided by the core.

Kind regards
Uffe

This test and due to the discussions with Wolfram and you in this
thread, I would actually suggest that you enable MMC_CAP_ERASE for all
tmio variants, rather than just for this particular one.

In other words, set the cap in tmio_mmc_host_probe() should be fine,
as it seems none of the tmio variants supports HW busy detection at
this point.

Kind regards
Uffe

Sorry, I didn't get it. You think what exactly? Is it good / bad / ok
for now / ok in general?

Sorry.

It's good for now!

If/when you start implementing support for HW busy detection, then you
need to adjust to the timeout value according to cmd->busy_timeout
from the core.

Just for your information, following Ulf's suggestion, we are going to
enable MMC_CAP_ERASE in the TMIO mmc core driver, affecting UniPhier
SD/eMMC Host Controller. Hope to see your Ack/NAK on this in the
upcoming patch. TIA.
