standalone SD card SDIO

Former Member
Former Member over 11 years ago

Hello,

I try to use the SD card of the Zedboard via the SDIO port. I use chans FatFs. First I implemented the diskio.c by my own, but then debugging it I found that there is an implementation in an example project, so now I use that one.
It can be found here:
XilinxSDK2014.2dataembeddedswlibsw_servicesxilffs_v2_1


Initialization works partly, but not fully:
.

XSdPs_SdCardInitialize
XSdPs_Change_ClkFreq(&SdInstance, SD_CLK_25_MHZ);
and XSdPs_Select_Card
.

work propperly, but XSdPs_Get_BusWidth does not anymore.
It seems like commands are accepted, but DMA transfers are not:
.
/*
* Send block write command
*/
Status = XSdPs_CmdTransfer(InstancePtr, CMD55,
tttInstancePtr->RelCardAddr, 0);
tif (Status != XST_SUCCESS) {
t....Status = XST_FAILURE;
t....goto RETURN_PATH;
t}

tBlkCnt = XSDPS_SCR_BLKCNT;
tBlkSize = XSDPS_SCR_BLKSIZE;

t/*
t * Set block size to the value passed
t */
tBlkSize &= XSDPS_BLK_SIZE_MASK;
tXSdPs_WriteReg16(InstancePtr->Config.BaseAddress,
tttXSDPS_BLK_SIZE_OFFSET, BlkSize);

tXSdPs_SetupADMA2DescTbl(InstancePtr, BlkCnt, SCR);

tXSdPs_WriteReg16(InstancePtr->Config.BaseAddress,
tttXSDPS_XFER_MODE_OFFSET,
tttXSDPS_TM_DAT_DIR_SEL_MASK | XSDPS_TM_DMA_EN_MASK);

tStatus = XSdPs_CmdTransfer(InstancePtr, ACMD51, 0, BlkCnt);
tif (Status != XST_SUCCESS) {
t....Status = XST_FAILURE;
t....goto RETURN_PATH;
t}
.
SdPs_CmdTransfer(InstancePtr, ACMD51, 0, BlkCnt) returns with 1.
.

Maybe I did something wrong in the hardware design. I added the SD 0 Peripheral and assigned CD to MIO 47, WP to MIO46.
Do I have to activate the DMA somehow?
.
There is one funny fact: when I let the example program run, a file is generated on the SD, but it cannot be neither read nor written by the zynq.
.
Best regards,
Yaro

    Hi,
    I think it has something to do with the copying scheme of caches. If you load data from SD card to external DDR, the cache will temporarily store it and keep it(It only flush the data to DDR if it's full). If the cache is not full, it never flush the data to DDR. But I'm not sure if this correct though.
    I think you can re-enable the data cache imidiatly after you've done copying from SD card.
