- set bounce buffer to 512KB from 64K, which is hw max seg size for
fsl sd host controller
- by enlarging the size of bounce buffer, it will reduce the number
of irq on writing by merging small requests into a large one, which
will improve writing throughput.
- the side effect is that the reading throughput of 512KB bounce buffer
is lower than the one of 64KB bounce buffer, when cpu freq is at 200Mhz.
Test Env:
1. MX6DL SabreSD board
2. On board eMMC (Sandisk: SDIN5C2-8G) running at 8-bit DDR @ 52Mhz
3. Test commands:
3.1 Writing test command:
# dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/mmcblk0 bs=1M count=100 conv=fsync
3.2 Reading test command:
# echo 1 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
# echo 1 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
# sleep 1
# dd if=/dev/mmcblk0 of=/dev/null bs=1M count=100
Performance result:
