eMMC not working on iMX6SL based board.

namratanalawade — Thu, 22 Dec 2016 09:41:39 GMT

Hello there,

We have custom board based on iMX6SL. We have micron eMMC interfaced over SD2 interface.we are able to get the manufacture ID read correctly in u-boot. but when we boot the kernel we are getting below error -

mmc1: Timeout waiting for hardware interrupt.
mmcblk1: error -110 sending stop command, original cmd response 0x2000900, card status 0x2400900
mmcblk1: error -110 transferring data, sector 0, nr 8, cmd response 0x2000900, card status 0x0
mmcblk1: retrying using single block read
mmc1: Timeout waiting for hardware interrupt.
mmcblk1: error -110 transferring data, sector 0, nr 8, cmd response 0x2000900, card status 0x0
blk_update_request: I/O error, dev mmcblk1, sector 0
mmc1: Timeout waiting for hardware interrupt.
mmcblk1: error -110 transferring data, sector 1, nr 7, cmd response 0x2000900, card status 0x0
blk_update_request: I/O error, dev mmcblk1, sector 1
mmc1: Timeout waiting for hardware interrupt.
mmcblk1: error -110 transferring data, sector 2, nr 6, cmd response 0x2000900, card status 0x0
blk_update_request: I/O error, dev mmcblk1, sector 2

What does this error mean ? I'm missing any configuration for SD2 ?

any help to resolve this issue would be highly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Namrata

is emmc fully working in uboot, performing commands

mmc write, mmc read, mmcinfo. If not one can check signals

with oscilloscope and use attached sdk tests with jtag.

One can obtain full copy of sdk creating service request.

What bsp/uboot used in the case, please try nxp uboot from

uboot-imx.git - Freescale i.MX u-boot Tree

Thank you for the reply igor.

Yes, emmc is fully working in uboot. mmc read, mmc write runs without any error.

But, when I try to boot the kernel it shows the I/O error. Below is my dts file configuration

&usdhc2 {
pinctrl-names = "default", "state_100mhz", "state_200mhz";
pinctrl-0 = <&pinctrl_usdhc2>;
pinctrl-1 = <&pinctrl_usdhc2_100mhz>;
pinctrl-2 = <&pinctrl_usdhc2_200mhz>;
bus-width = <4>;
cd-type = "none" ;
wp-type = "none";
keep-power-in-suspend;
enable-sdio-wakeup;
status = "okay";
};

pinctrl_usdhc2: usdhc2grp {

fsl,pins = <
MX6SL_PAD_SD2_CMD__SD2_CMD 0x17059
MX6SL_PAD_SD2_CLK__SD2_CLK 0x10059
MX6SL_PAD_SD2_DAT0__SD2_DATA0 0x17059
MX6SL_PAD_SD2_DAT1__SD2_DATA1 0x17059
MX6SL_PAD_SD2_DAT2__SD2_DATA2 0x17059
MX6SL_PAD_SD2_DAT3__SD2_DATA3 0x17059
/*MX6SL_PAD_SD2_DAT4__SD2_DATA4 0x17059

MX6SL_PAD_SD2_DAT6__SD2_DATA6 0x17059
MX6SL_PAD_SD2_DAT7__SD2_DATA7 0x17059*/
>;

};

Please let me know if I'm doing something wrong / missing out anything in above config. I'm using kernel version 4.1.15.

Re: eMMC not working on iMX6SL based board.

igorpadykov — Fri, 23 Dec 2016 11:02:41 GMT

as emmc uses partitions which should be programmed before flashing images,

recommended way is to use mfg tools for programming emmc. It can be found on

i.MX 6 Series Software and Development Tool|NXP

alternatively one can try dd command from Linux host :

echo 0 > /sys/block/mmcblk2boot0/force_ro
dd if=u-boot.imx of=/dev/mmcblk2boot0 bs=512 seek=2 conv=fsync ( flashing u-boot to sector 0 )
echo 1 > /sys/block/mmcblk2boot0/force_ro

echo 0 > /sys/block/mmcblk2boot1/force_ro
dd if=u-boot.imx of=/dev/mmcblk2boot1 bs=512 seek=2 conv=fsync ( flashing u-boot to sector 1 )
echo 1 > /sys/block/mmcblk2boot1/force_ro

mmc bootpart enable 1 0 /dev/mmcblk2boot0 ---> Boot from eMMC – sector 0
mmc bootpart enable 2 0 /dev/mmcblk2boot1 ---> Boot from eMMC – sector 1

Default u-boot start from sector 0.

Thanks Igore,

Please help on this issue.

Re: eMMC not working on iMX6SL based board.

fabio_estevam — Mon, 02 Jan 2017 16:47:04 GMT

bus-width should be 8 in your dts.

Also:

cd-type = "none" ;
wp-type = "none";

are not correct.

You should add: non-removable; property to indicate that there is no card detect pin.

yakovshaulov — Wed, 04 Jan 2017 17:20:08 GMT

Hello Namrata and Igor,

We have almost the same problem that you described. The different is that in our case the eMMC isn't recognized by U-Boot.

Our board is a custom board based IMX6SL with an eMMC of Micron that connected to SD2 port (same as in your board).

Please advice us to solve this issue.

also, please find attached schematic connectivity between the eMMC and CPU.

Thanks

Re: eMMC not working on iMX6SL based board.

igorpadykov — Thu, 05 Jan 2017 01:11:56 GMT

one can check emmc functionality with attached baremetal test from sdk

(for example run it with jtag).

yakovshaulov — Thu, 05 Jan 2017 10:24:34 GMT

Hi Igor,

Thanks for the attachment, but I think that some files are missing.

For example SDK.h that included in usdhc_test.c.

Also missing files such as common.mk and targets.mk that appears in Makefile.

Re: eMMC not working on iMX6SL based board.

igorpadykov — Thu, 05 Jan 2017 10:42:02 GMT

Hi Yakov

please create service request for obtaining full sdk.

Hi Igor,

I'm able to get the eMMC recognised in kernel. But i'm getting the read error. I even tried to play with the drive strength and the clock frequency of sd2 pads. My dts file has below settings -

/* SD2 - eMMC */
&usdhc2 {

pinctrl-0 = <&pinctrl_usdhc2>;
no-1-8-v;
bus-width = <8>;

keep-power-in-suspend;
enable-sdio-wakeup;
status = "okay";

};

It shows that, timeout for hardware interrupt. but interrupt of mmc1 occurs immediately after we get the timeout.

Please help to through some highlight on the exact problem that I'm getting. I'm struggling for getting this done for more than 1 week. Any immediate help would be highly appreciated.

Thank you in advance.

Re: eMMC not working on iMX6SL based board.

namratanalawade — Wed, 11 Jan 2017 07:41:34 GMT

Thanks you for the reply Igor.

I'm using 4.1.15-1.0.0_ga fsl BSP, and our custom board design is based on imx6sl-evk board.

Re: eMMC not working on iMX6SL based board.

igorpadykov — Wed, 11 Jan 2017 08:02:55 GMT

there are two versions 4.1.15-1.0.0_ga BSP: community and nxp

which one is used, could you provide link.

Hi Igor,

we are using the mono framework. The link that we have shared contains the demo images for X11, wayland and fb framework support.

Also, by using these demo files, eMMC working on custom board would not get verified,as SD interface and the setting would be different in the demo images.

Re: eMMC not working on iMX6SL based board.

igorpadykov — Wed, 11 Jan 2017 11:00:55 GMT

one can try custom dts with rootfs from these Demo Images
