[PATCH v2] mmc: core: Return correct emmc response in case of ioctl error

From: Nishad Kamdar
Date: Sun Aug 08 2021 - 13:25:22 EST


When a read/write command is sent via ioctl to the kernel,
and the command fails, the actual error response of the emmc
is not sent to the user.

Following are the tests carried out using commands
17 (Single BLock Read),
24 (Single Block Write),
18 (Multi Block Read),
25 (Multi Block Write)

The tests are carried out on a 64Gb emmc device. All of these
tests try to access an "out of range" sector address (0x09B2FFFF).

It is seen that without the patch the response received by the user
is not OUT_OF_RANGE error (R1 response 31st bit is not set) as per
JEDEC specification. After applying the patch proper response is seen.

The user level ioctl testcode for the above commands and their
respective outputs without and with the patch are shown below:

CMD17 (Test Code Snippet):
==========================
printf("Forming CMD%d\n", opt_idx);
/* single block read */
cmd.blksz = 512;
cmd.blocks = 1;
cmd.write_flag = 0;
cmd.opcode = 17;
//cmd.arg = atoi(argv[3]);
cmd.arg = 0x09B2FFFF;
/* Expecting response R1B */
cmd.flags = MMC_RSP_SPI_R1 | MMC_RSP_R1 | MMC_CMD_ADTC;

memset(data, 0, sizeof(__u8) * 512);
mmc_ioc_cmd_set_data(cmd, data);

printf("Sending CMD%d: ARG[0x%08x]\n", opt_idx, cmd.arg);
if(ioctl(fd, MMC_IOC_CMD, &cmd))
perror("Error");

printf("\nResponse: %08x\n", cmd.response[0]);
