If you scope checked the frequency, it works with other software and with another controller, then it must be some strange kind of controller software handling problem. The Raspi is not a board with high speed expectations anyway. Probably we should default the highspeed sysctl to false instead of true until there is a fallback or fix. Btw I have a hardkernel board with this broadcom chip - it looks like it has pull ups... Never powered it up so far - it is said to be software compatible with the raspberry. It has a micro SD slot and a connector for an eMMC board, not sure if there is a second controller or you can't use both at the same time. Will give it a try during the next days. > There have bugs in the past where we transition to the new speed at the > wrong time, which caused issues. That might be a fruitful avenue of inquiry.
