1SD and MMC Block Device Attributes 2================================== 3 4These attributes are defined for the block devices associated with the 5SD or MMC device. 6 7The following attributes are read/write. 8 9 force_ro Enforce read-only access even if write protect switch is off. 10 11SD and MMC Device Attributes 12============================ 13 14All attributes are read-only. 15 16 cid Card Identifaction Register 17 csd Card Specific Data Register 18 scr SD Card Configuration Register (SD only) 19 date Manufacturing Date (from CID Register) 20 fwrev Firmware/Product Revision (from CID Register) (SD and MMCv1 only) 21 hwrev Hardware/Product Revision (from CID Register) (SD and MMCv1 only) 22 manfid Manufacturer ID (from CID Register) 23 name Product Name (from CID Register) 24 oemid OEM/Application ID (from CID Register) 25 serial Product Serial Number (from CID Register) 26 erase_size Erase group size 27 preferred_erase_size Preferred erase size 28 29Note on Erase Size and Preferred Erase Size: 30 31 "erase_size" is the minimum size, in bytes, of an erase 32 operation. For MMC, "erase_size" is the erase group size 33 reported by the card. Note that "erase_size" does not apply 34 to trim or secure trim operations where the minimum size is 35 always one 512 byte sector. For SD, "erase_size" is 512 36 if the card is block-addressed, 0 otherwise. 37 38 SD/MMC cards can erase an arbitrarily large area up to and 39 including the whole card. When erasing a large area it may 40 be desirable to do it in smaller chunks for three reasons: 41 1. A single erase command will make all other I/O on 42 the card wait. This is not a problem if the whole card 43 is being erased, but erasing one partition will make 44 I/O for another partition on the same card wait for the 45 duration of the erase - which could be a several 46 minutes. 47 2. To be able to inform the user of erase progress. 48 3. The erase timeout becomes too large to be very 49 useful. Because the erase timeout contains a margin 50 which is multiplied by the size of the erase area, 51 the value can end up being several minutes for large 52 areas. 53 54 "erase_size" is not the most efficient unit to erase 55 (especially for SD where it is just one sector), 56 hence "preferred_erase_size" provides a good chunk 57 size for erasing large areas. 58 59 For MMC, "preferred_erase_size" is the high-capacity 60 erase size if a card specifies one, otherwise it is 61 based on the capacity of the card. 62 63 For SD, "preferred_erase_size" is the allocation unit 64 size specified by the card. 65 66 "preferred_erase_size" is in bytes. 67 68SD/MMC/SDIO Clock Gating Attribute 69================================== 70 71Read and write access is provided to following attribute. 72This attribute appears only if CONFIG_MMC_CLKGATE is enabled. 73 74 clkgate_delay Tune the clock gating delay with desired value in milliseconds. 75 76echo <desired delay> > /sys/class/mmc_host/mmcX/clkgate_delay 77
