I believe the improvement will vary depending on how many commands are packed, which will depend on use case (e.g. CPU load, rate of application read/write), file system state (e.g. fragmentation, amount of free space) etc. It will be very interesting if you can publish the details of what you have tested and your observation of different parameters related to packed command. > Acked-by: Kyungmin Park <[email protected]> > > On 1/20/12, Seungwon Jeon <[email protected]> wrote: >> This patch-set adds support of packed command feature >> for eMMC4.5 devices. >> >> Changes in v3: >> - Add a variable member in mmc_host for minimum number of packed >> entries. >> This value can be overrided by host. >> - Fix a handling of error sequence. >> >> Changes in v2: >> - Fix the packed read sequence and error handling. >> - Apply checking the exception status for all cases with >> the comments from Maya Erez and Sahitya Tummala. >> - Fix preparing the packed list with the comment from Maya Erez and >> Venkatraman. >> >> >> Seungwon Jeon (2): >> mmc: core: Add packed command feature of eMMC4.5 >> mmc: core: Support packed command for eMMC4.5 device >> >> drivers/mmc/card/block.c | 469 >> +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++--- >> drivers/mmc/card/queue.c | 48 +++++- >> drivers/mmc/card/queue.h | 13 ++ >> drivers/mmc/core/host.c | 2 + >> drivers/mmc/core/mmc.c | 24 +++ >> drivers/mmc/core/mmc_ops.c | 1 + >> include/linux/mmc/card.h | 3 + >> include/linux/mmc/core.h | 3 + >> include/linux/mmc/host.h | 4 + >> include/linux/mmc/mmc.h | 15 ++ >> 10 files changed, 555 insertions(+), 27 deletions(-) >> >> Best regards, >> Seungwon Jeon. >> -- >> 1.7.2.3 >> >> >> -- >> To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-mmc" in >> the body of a message to [email protected] >> More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html >> > -- > To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-mmc" in > the body of a message to [email protected] > More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-mmc" in the body of a message to [email protected] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
