This cap is a bit strange. It was added several years ago by Adrian
Hunter, but I am wondering about the reason to why it's needed.
MMC_CAP2_HC_ERASE_SZ relates to EXT-CSD ERASE_GROUP_DEF.
I think it was added to enable people to choose whether they wanted a large
or small erase granularity. That probably doesn't matter if the card
supports TRIM.
Huh, the erase/trim/discard code in the mmc core is really hairy. :-)
In mmc_calc_max_discard() the following code/comment exists:
/*
* Without erase_group_def set, MMC erase timeout depends on clock
* frequence which can change. In that case, the best choice is
* just the preferred erase size.
*/
if (mmc_card_mmc(card) && !(card->ext_csd.erase_group_def & 1))
return card->pref_erase;
This makes me wonder.
So, when we haven't enabled the high capacity erase groups in the
EXT_CSD register (ext_csd.erase_group_def), we will use the pref_erase
size.
In the other case, as when having MMC_CAP2_HC_ERASE_SZ set (which will
set ext_csd.erase_group_def), we will instead do some calculations
to find out the max discards.
Are you saying that these calculations doesn't matter much - or are
you saying that we always want to do them?
