Udit, I would hesitate to go down the road of multiple card tests unless you have a great deal of spare time. There are far more pertinent questions that can be asked about the variance between SDHCI and SDIO implementations. There is still the little detail of porting to RTEMS too. :) > Regards, > Udit > > > > > -- > > Peter Jeremy > > > _______________________________________________ > freebsd-arm@freebsd.org mailing list > https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-arm > To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-arm-unsubscribe@freebsd.org" >
