Description David Carlos Manuelda 2007-07-16 19:11:41 UTC
This is a issue with Samsung R70 laptop with Ricoh Co Ltd R5C822 SD/SDIO/MMC/MS/MSPro Host Adapter (rev 18).

I can't have it working neither manually, neither automatically with hal and kde (as a USB stick for example). IN this URI, you can see someone having similar problem: http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/6395

It seems that device is recognized according to dmesg and lspci info (but the MMC reader says Unknown device 0843. (I have the MMC compiled as built in in kernel).

More info:

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Insert MMC card
2.Nothing happens
3.

Actual Results:  
Nothing happens, can't mount it (including if you could create nodes by hand)

Expected Results:  
Hability for hal to detect this removable media, and have the ability to mount it (similar to USB sticks).

Comment 2 David Carlos Manuelda 2007-07-16 19:13:37 UTC
Aditional data:

I am using gentoo-sources-2.6.22-r1
Comment 3 Daniel Drake (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2007-07-17 00:01:56 UTC
Same problem here, identical hardware in a Dell Inspiron 640m.

I investigated this last year.

http://list.drzeus.cx/pipermail/sdhci-devel/2006-June/000992.html

In the above mails I was using MMC and xD cards and getting no interrupts. Since then I have discovered that SD cards do work fine.

As the hardware is not producing any interrupts for MMC/xD, there is not really anything we can do until someone reverse engineers Ricoh's windows driver -- the behaviour seen here suggests that the hardware is not fully SDHCI-compliant.

So, apologies, nothing we can do here at the moment.
Comment 4 David Carlos Manuelda 2007-09-18 23:45:21 UTC
Daniel Drake:

I've seen:
http://intr.overt.org/blog/?p=59
It says that MMC are detected by hardware, and redirected to MMC driver, but SD driver needs to 'see' MMC card in order to have it working. There they have a workarround which I cannot test now.

Could you test it? Maybe this issue is not that far from being resolved...
Comment 5 Daniel Drake (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2007-09-19 09:34:27 UTC
I can't test it either, but I'm not bothered personally as I don't use MMC media at the moment.

There is no kernel patch available (only a workaround), closing bug again. In the mean time, you should put the setpci line in /etc/conf.d/local.start

Feel free to reopen when a kernel fix is available, then we can backport it.

Comment 7 jonathan e. Snow 2008-01-05 18:59:05 UTC
Getting the device to ID in dmesg is easy -- you need to get the latest /usr/share/misc/pci.ids file from http://pciids.sourceforge.net/

The rest is not so easy, I have had no luck at all with my card reader, which then ID's as a R5C843 MMC controller (even though it's an SD device). 

Do what you want, no response from dmesg at all.

Comment 8 David Carlos Manuelda 2008-03-24 06:29:43 UTC
I have more news about this issue I want to comment in order to announce other people having troubles with this issue:

This claims to be solved for most models in 2.6.23 (currently stable in kernel) via ricoh_mmc kernel module, but for this model, I contacted the module author and he said me that this model will be supported in next 2.6.24, and a patch is already included in current RC, so we will see that working really soon.
Comment 9 David Carlos Manuelda 2008-03-25 16:50:01 UTC
I tried the testing kernel-2.6.25-rc6 with patch for this model of ricoh and it works good. Also, I just copied the drivers/mmc/host/ricoh_mmc.c file to the current stable kernel, and tried it with this kernel and it works good also, so I decided to create a patch to be included with gentoo patchset (if you devs want to) to current 2.6.24 as it is stable.

This patch has no impact over other things of kernel, as it is *just* a fake mmc controller which disables the mmc controller of ricoh card readers in favour of SDHCI controller for both SD and MMC cards.

Could this patch to be included in next gentoo-sources revision? This would be very usefull for people having this issues, and this way, we don't need to wait so long until 2.6.25 is released and declared stable in gentoo.

How about it?

patch for ricoh_mmc controller from ricoh_mmc.c file of kernel 2.6.25-rc6

Patch suggested to be included in gentoo's patchset for current 2.6.24
Comment 11 Mike Pagano gentoo-dev 2008-03-25 18:28:04 UTC
We will backport official patches from the kernel mainline git repository. I believe these two patches reference your issue:

http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commitdiff_plain;h=882c49164d72c45f37d7fa1bb3de7c31cf1a5fab

I've applied them to 2.6.24-gentoo-r3 and compiled the code with the ricoh config set but I do not have the required hardware for a complete test. Can you apply these to a clean 2.6.24-gentoo-r3, compile and test the result?

Comment 12 David Carlos Manuelda 2008-03-25 22:44:45 UTC
Those two patches are included in the one I created, and I tested my patch in a clean 2.6.24-gentoo-r3 and the hardware worked good.

Since those two patches are just the same I tested, I assume [and I can tell] that they work.
Comment 13 Mike Pagano gentoo-dev 2008-03-25 22:50:28 UTC
Thanks, I'll commit the two patches from upstream into svn and you should see them in gentoo-sources-2.6.24-r4. Which I believe we will release into the wild next week.

Comment 14 Daniel Drake (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2008-03-30 09:18:56 UTC
Fixed in gentoo-sources-2.6.24-r4 (genpatches-2.6.24-5), thanks for testing
