Subject: RE: [PATCH v3] mmc: core: Add support for idle time BKOPS

Hi Ulf,

Thanks for the info. We will consider our controller behavior in suspend.
Would it be acceptable by you to keep the polling for BKOPS completion under
a special CAPS2 flag?

Thanks,
Maya

This is not the "default runtime suspend" for a host device, but for the
card device. Do not mix this up with runtime pm for a host device.

Right now runtime pm for the card _device_ is only enabled for SDIO.
Thus SDIO drivers can use runtime pm to actually trigger an SDIO card to be
fully suspended when it is not needed and thus save a lot of power. For
example when a WLAN interface goes up/down.

So, doing mmc_suspend_host in you runtime_suspend callback, is that really
what you want to do?

1.
You will introduce significant latencies (I have seen SD-cards which needs
more than 1 s to initialize, eMMC is better but we are anyway talking
several 100 ms) once new requests arrives after the host as entered the
runtime suspend state.

2.
SD cards has no "power off" notification, so you will actually stress test
the SD cards internal FTL to be crash safe by cutting the power to it more
often.

3.
You will prevent SD-cards from doing it's back ground operations, which is
done automatically and not like in a controlled manner as for eMMC.

So of course, you save some power, but is the consequences worth it? :-)

You must not poll to prevent this!

Instead you need to prevent the host from going into runtime suspend state,
which is simply done by pm_runtime_get_sync for the host device.
Although, it _must_ not be done for drivers not doing mmc_suspend_host in
their runtime suspend callbacks. Since then it will prevent these from doing
runtime power save actions, which is not ok.
