Yes, this is a Toshiba card. I've sent the patch as a reply to Linus' email. cid - 02010053454d3332479070cc51451d00 csd - d00f00320f5903ffffffffff92404000 erase_size - 524288 fwrev - 0x0 hwrev - 0x0 manfid - 0x000002 name - SEM32G oemid - 0x0100 preferred_erase_size - 2097152Very interesting. So the manfid is the same as on most Kingston cards, but the oemid is different. Most cards have a two-letter ASCII code in there, 0x544d ("TM") on Kingston cards, and I always assumed that this stood for "Toshiba Memory". What is even stranger is the size value (among other fields) in the CSD, the card claims a size of exactly 32GB, which I find hard to believe, given that there are always some bad and reserved blocks. Are you sure that the card you have is authentic? I've heard a lot about fake USB sticks advertising a size that is much larger than the actual flash inside of them. Also this is the first card that I see advertise an allocation unit size of 2MB (preferred_erase_size), all other cards seem to advertise 4 MB these days, even if they actually have 2 or 8 MB. ? ? ? ?Arnd
This is a Toshiba eMMC part. It is 32GB as far as the OS can see and access.
