This patchset fixes the code in the bcm2835_sdhost device so that it raises interrupts in more plausible places.
The Linux bcm2835_sdhost driver doesn't work on QEMU at the moment, because our model raises spurious data interrupts. Our function bcm2835_sdhost_fifo_run() will flag an interrupt any time it is called with s->datacnt == 0, even if the host hasn't actually issued a data read or write command yet. This means that the driver gets a spurious data interrupt as soon as it enables IRQs and then does something else that causes us to call the fifo_run routine, like writing to SDHCFG, and before it does the write to SDCMD to issue the read. The driver's IRQ handler then spins forever complaining that there's no data and the SD controller isn't in a state where there's going to be any data: [ 41.040738] sdhost-bcm2835 3f202000.mmc: fsm 1, hsts 00000000 [ 41.042059] sdhost-bcm2835 3f202000.mmc: fsm 1, hsts 00000000 (continues forever). Move the interrupt flag setting to more plausible places: * for BUSY, raise this as soon as a BUSYWAIT command has executed * for DATA, raise this when the FIFO has any space free (for a write) or any data in it (for a read) * for BLOCK, raise this when the data count is 0 and we've actually done some reading or writing This is pure guesswork since the documentation for this hardware is not public, but it is sufficient to get the Linux bcm2835_sdhost driver to work. If anybody has other OSes than Linux that use the sdhost SD controller (not the 'Arasan' one, which is a different bit of the SoC) testing with those would be appreciated. If anybody has documentation for this hardware that would be even better. With these patches plus the previous set, I can get the Debian raspi3 image to boot (though there are a lot of warnings relating to the pl011 UART for some reason). thanks -- PMM Peter Maydell (2): hw/sd/bcm2835_sdhost: Add tracepoints hw/sd/bcm2835_sdhost: Don't raise spurious interrupts hw/sd/bcm2835_sdhost.c | 51 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++------------------- hw/sd/trace-events | 6 ++++++ 2 files changed, 38 insertions(+), 19 deletions(-) -- 2.16.2
