Re: [PATCH] Move the judgement of timeout into mmc_switch_status_error()

[Jaehoon Chung]

Hi,

Did you read my comment? Which kernel version did you use?

I think your patch doesn't need on mainline kernel.
If you want to apply the patch, work on the latest kernel.

    mmc: core: fix __mmc_switch timeout caused by preempt

    there is a time window between __mmc_send_status() and time_afer(),
    on some eMMC chip, the timeout_ms is only 10ms, if this thread was
    scheduled out during this period, then, even card has already changes
    to transfer state by the result of CMD13, this part of code also treat
    it to timeout error.
    So, need calculate timeout first, then call __mmc_send_status(), if
    already timeout and card still in programing state, then treat it to
    the real timeout error.

main_md->curr is right? main_md->part_curr?
