That's true. Wo do not yet have any API that does an SDIO interface
abstraction. But on the LPCs I just use SDIO to communicate with SD-Cards.

I first would try to write a SDIO interface driver for STM32 as well and
then try to create a new generic API, so that we write generic SDIO
client drivers, e.g. for SD Cards etc.

The SD Card driver for the LPC is splittet in two parts. One for the
SDIO interface (lpc177x_8x_mci.c) and one for the SD Card block device
implementation (lpc177x_8x_mmcard_sdio.c).

Currently this is still very much lpc specific (taken from the LPC
sources). But should be a good starting point for a general implementation.

I will keep you up to date.

Best regards,
