Subject: SD power-control necessary?
Date: Fri, 07 Jan 2011 22:39:14 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4D272592.6000508@yahoo.es> (raw)

Hello,

Maybe a stupid question, but when designing new hardware with a slot
for an sd-card, how essential is it that the driver is able to power off/on
the card?

I would say essential, because I've seen sd-cards in a state in which they
didn't respond to MMC_GO_IDLE_STATE anymore, until they were re-inserted.

Can anyone shed a light on this? How could an sd-card get into such a state?

Will the mmc driver fall back to mmc_rescan() after an initialized card
becomes non-responsive?

Thanks, Hein
