[RFC PATCH v7 0/10] Add external dma support for Synopsys MSHC
From: Shawn Lin
Date: Sun Aug 23 2015 - 21:26:07 EST
Synopsys DesignWare mobile storage host controller supports three
types of transfer mode: pio, internal dma and external dma. However,
dw_mmc can only supports pio and internal dma now. Thus some platforms
using dw-mshc integrated with generic dma can't work in dma mode. So we
submit this patch to achieve it.
And the config option, CONFIG_MMC_DW_IDMAC, was added by Will Newton
(commit:f95f3850) for the first version of dw_mmc and never be touched since
then. At that time dt-bindings hadn't been introduced into dw_mmc yet means
we should select CONFIG_MMC_DW_IDMAC to enable internal dma mode at compile
time. Nowadays, device-tree helps us to support a variety of boards with one
kernel. That's why we need to remove it and decide the transfer mode by reading
dw_mmc's HCON reg at runtime.
This RFC patch needs lots of ACKs. I know it's hard, but it does need someone
to make the running.
Patch does the following things:
- remove CONFIG_MMC_DW_IDMAC config option
- add bindings for edmac used by synopsys-dw-mshc
at runtime
- add edmac support for synopsys-dw-mshc
Patch is based on next of git://git.linaro.org/people/ulf.hansson/mmc
Test emmc throughput on my platform with edmac support and without edmac support(pio only)

- add trans_mode condition for IDMAC initialization
suggested by Heiko
- re-test my patch on rk3188 platform and update commit msg
- update performance of pio vs edmac in cover letter
Changes in v5:
