Reinhard Meyer1592ef82010-08-13 10:31:06 +02001How to use SD/MMC cards with Atmel SoCs having MCI hardware
2-----------------------------------------------------------

5This is a new approach to use Atmel MCI hardware with the
6general MMC framework. Therefore it benefits from that
7framework's abilities to handle SDHC Cards and the ability
8to write blocks.
9
10- AT91SAM9XE512 (tested, will definitely work with XE128 and XE256)
11- AT91SAM9260 (not tested, but MCI is to AT91SAM9XE)
12- AT91SAM9G20 (not tested, should work)
13
14It should work with all other ATMEL devices that have MCI,
15including AVR32.
16
17The generic driver does NOT assign port pins to the MCI block
18nor does it start the MCI clock. This has to be handled in a
19board/SoC specific manner before the driver is initialized:
20
21example: this is added to at91sam9260_devices.c:

25{
26 at91_set_a_periph(AT91_PIO_PORTA, 8, PUP); /* MCCK */
27#if defined(CONFIG_ATMEL_MCI_PORTB)
28 at91_set_b_periph(AT91_PIO_PORTA, 1, PUP); /* MCCDB */
29 at91_set_b_periph(AT91_PIO_PORTA, 0, PUP); /* MCDB0 */

32 at91_set_b_periph(AT91_PIO_PORTA, 3, PUP); /* MCDB3 */
33#else
34 at91_set_a_periph(AT91_PIO_PORTA, 7, PUP); /* MCCDA */

38 at91_set_a_periph(AT91_PIO_PORTA, 11, PUP); /* MCDA3 */
39#endif
40}
41#endif
42
43the board specific file need added:
44...
45#ifdef CONFIG_GENERIC_ATMEL_MCI
46# include <mmc.h>
47#endif
48...
49#ifdef CONFIG_GENERIC_ATMEL_MCI
50/* this is a weak define that we are overriding */
51int board_mmc_init(bd_t *bd)
52{
53 /* Enable clock */
54 at91_sys_write(AT91_PMC_PCER, 1 << AT91SAM9260_ID_MCI);
55 at91_mci_hw_init();
56
57 /* This calls the atmel_mci_init in gen_atmel_mci.c */
58 return atmel_mci_init((void *)AT91_BASE_MCI);
59}

61/* this is a weak define that we are overriding */
Thierry Reding314284b2012-01-02 01:15:36 +000062int board_mmc_getcd(struct mmc *mmc)

67#endif

69and the board definition files needs:
70
71/* SD/MMC card */
