Subject: mmc: core: retries counter for data command initialization.
Date: Tue, 29 Apr 2014 10:55:46 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <535F5B02.9060908@codeaurora.org> (raw)

Hi All,

After 6035d9730d5825e6e3c225b721a5847a521d6556 "mmc: fix async request 
mechanism for sequential read scenarios" mmc layer data path async 
request handling was separated from mmc commands path.

mmc_wait_for_data_req_done() function is used to wait for completion of 
the currently running data request, while for commands 
mmc_wait_for_req_done() is used.

There is code that repeats request cmd->retries times in case of error.
The problem that for data command this counter is not initialized 
properly as it does for mmc command sending:


int mmc_wait_for_cmd(struct mmc_host *host, struct mmc_command *cmd, int 
retries)
{
	struct mmc_request mrq = {NULL};

	WARN_ON(!host->claimed);

	memset(cmd->resp, 0, sizeof(cmd->resp));
	cmd->retries = retries;                 <-- supplied by
                                                     caller

	mrq.cmd = cmd;
	cmd->data = NULL;

	mmc_wait_for_req(host, &mrq);

	return cmd->error;
}

I found that there is no similar initialization for data command 
processing code, so the counter cmd->retries remains always 0.

Lets discuss:
- do we need retries for data request
- what value is good: for command there are 0 or 5 retries
- where to do this initialization:card/block.c:mmc_wait_for_req_done()  ?

Thanks,
Kostya
