RE: [PATCH] mmc: block: disable the reliable write If the card does not support CMD23

Show key headers only | View raw

Hi Uffe,

Since Reliable Write depends on the CMD23. I think we need to disable Reliable Write if the card does not support CMD23(due to performance impact issue), so I add this patch.

Do you think we still need to enable Reliable Write even if the card does not support CMD23?

Thanks,
Yong Li
