3.1[34]: omap4: panda: hang on reboot?

3.1[34]: omap4: panda: hang on reboot?

[Paolo Pisati]

I've been experiencing hangs on reboot on two different panda boards (es rev1
and vanilla rev a1) with v3.14-rc8 (but reproducible in 3.13 too):

toolchanin: gcc version 4.8.1 (Ubuntu/Linaro 4.8.1-10ubuntu7)

the config is a multi_v7_defconfig plus a couple of codepages:

http://people.canonical.com/~ppisati/omap4_reboot_hangs/config

a prebuilt zImage is available here:

http://people.canonical.com/~ppisati/omap4_reboot_hangs/zImage

sometimes i can hit this two times in a row, others it's a bit less
frequent - put this into your crontab and let it go:

*/5 * * * *       /bin/date >> /reboot.log && /sbin/reboot

it never passed 2hrs of reboot cycles.

I already tried different u-boots but that doesn't make any difference,
am i the only one experiencing this issue?

i bisected it down to this commit:

commit e002264f7e45d7661b237045577052fd0b40f89c

    mmc: omap_hsmmc: Fix pbias_disable for omap4
    
    pbias_disable is set to protect the mmc pbias i/o cells in DT boot
    by preventing voltage switch. Currently pbias_disable is enabled only
    for omap3 and not for omap4 due to reg_offset difference of 0x100.
    Enable pbias_disable for omap4+ too by using res->start
    which does not include the reg_offset.

with this commit reverted, i can reboot in a loop for hours without any problem,
while if i keep this patch, my pandas don't survive more that two hours (again,
it's really random as it could hang a couple of times in a row and then work
like a charm for ten reboots straight).

Any idea? does it ring any bell?

Balaji, do you have a fix for this one?
