Subject: [RFC] mmc: cqhci: commit descriptors before setting the doorbell
Date: Tue, 15 Oct 2019 00:08:49 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20191014183849.14864-1-faiz_abbas@ti.com> (raw)

Add a write memory barrier to make sure that descriptors are actually
written to memory before ringing the doorbell.

Signed-off-by: Faiz Abbas <faiz_abbas@ti.com>

This patch fixes a very infrequent ADMA error (1 out of 100 times) that
I have been seeing after enabling command queuing for J721e.
Also looking at memory-barriers.txt and this commit[1],
it looks like we should be doing this before any descriptor write
followed by a doorbell ring operation. It'll be nice if someone with more
expertise in memory barriers can comment.
