On some platforms, firmware accesses the (e)MMC card directly during resume from Suspend-to-DRAM, before the kernel's own resume path has run, in order to load boot code. This requires the card to remain powered and responsive throughout suspend: putting it to sleep, sending it a power-off notification, or removing its supply is not safe, since firmware needs to talk to a live card. Add MMC_CAP2_NO_POWEROFF_SUSPEND, settable via the new "no-mmc-poweroff-suspend" DT property. In _mmc_suspend(), when this capability is set, skip the poweroff-notify/sleep/power-off sequence entirely: just deselect the card and mark it suspended. At resume, _mmc_resume() already unconditionally calls mmc_power_up() and mmc_init_card(), so the card gets fully re-initialized regardless of what firmware may have done to it in the meantime. Reported-by: Florian Fainelli <[email protected]> Closes: https://lore.kernel.org/r/[email protected]/ Signed-off-by: Kamal Dasu <[email protected]> --- Changes in v3: - Reworked _mmc_suspend() to skip poweroff-notify/sleep/power-off entirely, not just SLEEP, per Ulf. - Renamed to MMC_CAP2_NO_POWEROFF_SUSPEND/no-mmc-poweroff-suspend. Changes in v2: - Replaced the card-level MMC_QUIRK_BROKEN_SLEEP quirk with a host capability, per Ulf. - Added Reported-by/Closes crediting Florian. drivers/mmc/core/host.c | 2 ++ drivers/mmc/core/mmc.c | 15 +++++++++++++++ include/linux/mmc/host.h | 1 + 3 files changed, 18 insertions(+) diff --git a/drivers/mmc/core/host.c b/drivers/mmc/core/host.c index b7ce3137d452..35fd0be99c58 100644 --- a/drivers/mmc/core/host.c +++ b/drivers/mmc/core/host.c @@ -400,6 +400,8 @@ int mmc_of_parse(struct mmc_host *host) if (device_property_read_bool(dev, "no-mmc-hs400")) host->caps2 &= ~(MMC_CAP2_HS400_1_8V | MMC_CAP2_HS400_1_2V | MMC_CAP2_HS400_ES); + if (device_property_read_bool(dev, "no-mmc-poweroff-suspend")) + host->caps2 |= MMC_CAP2_NO_POWEROFF_SUSPEND; /* Must be after "non-removable" check */ if (device_property_read_u32(dev, "fixed-emmc-driver-type", &drv_type) == 0) { diff --git a/drivers/mmc/core/mmc.c b/drivers/mmc/core/mmc.c index 05444ecf3909..27a559e6fcc0 100644 --- a/drivers/mmc/core/mmc.c +++ b/drivers/mmc/core/mmc.c @@ -2157,6 +2157,21 @@ static int _mmc_suspend(struct mmc_host *host, enum mmc_poweroff_type pm_type) goto out; } + /* + * Some platforms need the card to stay powered and responsive + * throughout suspend, since firmware accesses it directly during + * resume, before the kernel's own resume path has run.
