pre_req() runs dma_map_sg() post_req() runs dma_unmap_sg.
If not calling pre_req() before sdhci_request(), request()
will prepare the cache just like it did it before.
It is optional to use pre_req() and post_req().

I worked out the patch by referring to Per's patch below.

 omap_hsmmc: add support for pre_req and post_req

It adds pre_req and post_req support for sdhci based host drivers to
work with Per's non-blocking optimization.  But I only have imx esdhc
based hardware to test.  Unfortunately, I can not measure the
performance gain using mmc_test, because the current esdhc driver on
mainline fails on the test.  So I just did a quick test using 'dd',
but sadly, I did not see noticeable performance gain here.  The
followings are possible reasons I can think of right away.

* The patch did not add pre_req and post_req correctly.  Please help
  review to catch the mistakes if any.
* The imx esdhc driver uses SDHCI_SDMA (max_segs is 1) than SDHCI_ADAM
  (max_segs is 128), due to the broken ADMA support on imx esdhc.  So
  can people holding other sdhci based hardware give a try on the
  patch?

Hopefully, I can find some time to have a close look at the mmc_test
failure and the broken ADMA with imx esdhc.

Regards,
Shawn

I'll try it out...

Hi Andrei..

Did you test this patch with ADMA?
I wonder that be increased performance or others..

Hi Shawn

I tested using ADMA with your patch...(benchmark : IOzone)
But I didn't get improvement of performance with ADMA..
(i can see improvement of performance with SDMA)

I want to know how you think about this..

Jaehoon Chung

It's still an open question if pre_req and post_req were correctly
added, even you have seen improvement of SDMA case with IOzone.  I
would leave the question to Per Forlin.

With your result, I'm interested in trying IOzone test with esdhc
to see any difference with SDMA.

BTW, what is the number of performance improvement you are seeing?
And do you have mmc_test result to share?

Performance numbers from user space may vary.
Currently I am looking into how the block layer adds request to the
mmc blockdev. I can see that if is common that one read request is
pushed to the mmc blockdev queue after the previous request has
already finished. For this scenario there will no improvement. If
running IOzone with large record sizes multiple requests are queued up
in the mmc blockdev queue and this results in increase of bandwidth.
The mmc_test are intended to help verifying if the pre_req and
post_req are implemented correctly and give a number of the maximum
gain in performance.
