+driver supports the SD Host Controller Specification.
+When attaching via the PCI bus,
+the controller is automatically configured.
+Many SoC chips provide a SDHCI controller directly mapped to I/O memory.
+For those, the controller may be configured using
+fdt(4)
+or
+acpi(4)
+methods, supplied by your board's vendor.
+
+Unlike most other drivers that support a generic standard,
+**sdhci**
+requires a large number of quirks to cope with hardware bugs,
+proprietary registers and poorly specified power management.
+While many chipsets from
+Intel, Xilinx, Rockchip, Frescale, Ricoh, and TI have these entries,
+suboptimal performance may result when using some controllers.
+Quirks and custom configuration are most often required
