This patch supports packed write command of eMMC4.5 devices. Several
writes can be grouped in packed command and all data of the individual
commands can be sent in a single transfer on the bus. Large amounts of
data in one transfer rather than several data of small size are
effective for eMMC write internally. As a result, packed command help
write throughput be improved. The following tables show the results
of packed write.
Type A:
test none | packed
iozone 25.8 | 31
tiotest 27.6 | 31.2
lmdd 31.2 | 35.4
Type B:
test none | packed
iozone 44.1 | 51.1
tiotest 47.9 | 52.5
lmdd 51.6 | 59.2
Type C:
test none | packed
iozone 19.5 | 32
tiotest 19.9 | 34.5
lmdd 22.8 | 40.7
