Hi Olliver,

Why are you using nRST signal?
What I mean is this pin is inactive on this eMMC chip. To use the signal
byte 162 of ECSD registers should be written.
Then that sounds like a bug in the mmc layer I would say (or a missing attribute in the dts), we have a nRST signal it is wired, if the chip ignores it, then nothing lost, if the chip needs to be initialized with byte 162 of the ECSD register to make the nRST work, then that it sounds like it should be fixed there?

By ommitting the nRST signal just because the chip isn't properly initialized sounds more like a work-around to me, but I could be wrong and see things wrong.
I just did a quick google query, and found the following post [0]. And it appears it's a fuse in the eMMC chip to enable/disable this functionality. I guess, but not sure, that our mmc driver in u-boot/kernel does not use the reset flag properly (always high) if that fuse has been enabled. I can imagine when using older u-boots this flag isn't enabled, the fuse is not triggered yet and the pin is thus ignored?


What do the mmc guys, who have far more experience here, say?


On my board, this "reset" signal causes eMMC not to work.
That supprises me, as afaik I was using it just fine...
