I have a Samsung U3 micro SD card which support SDR104 mode.
The kernel in ubuntu server image disabled sd-uhs-sdr104.
&sdmmc {
clock-frequency = <100000000>;
clock-freq-min-max = <100000 100000000>;
supports-sd;
bus-width = <4>;
cap-mmc-highspeed;
cap-sd-highspeed;
disable-wp;
num-slots = <1>;
//sd-uhs-sdr104;
vqmmc-supply = <&vcc_sd>;
pinctrl-names = “default”;
pinctrl-0 = <&sdmmc_clk &sdmmc_cmd &sdmmc_cd &sdmmc_bus4>;
};
sdmmc bus works at 50Mhz

Actuall read/write speed is around 15-18MB/s
To get better performance, I enabled sd-uhs-sdr104 by changes:
&sdmmc {
max-frequency = <150000000>;
supports-sd;
bus-width = <4>;
cap-mmc-highspeed;
cap-sd-highspeed;

pinctrl-names = “default”;
pinctrl-0 = <&sdmmc_clk &sdmmc_cmd &sdmmc_cd &sdmmc_bus4>;
};
sdmmc bus works at 150Mhz,

The SD card get a big performance benefit from this patch. But when reboot the system,
uboot fails to read sdcard unless I re-plug power cable. The issue is reported here
Here is another ubuntu server stuck when reboot, Ubuntu server stuck on reboot
No sure if it is the same issue with mine.
The kernel of Armbian also enabled ‘sd-uhs-sdr104’ support, and it doesn’t get suck when reboot.
I looked into their uboot source code, And got a working patch.
&sdmmc {
+ max-frequency = <20000000>;
&sdmmc_bus4>;
};
&sdhci {
+ max-frequency = <25000000>;
bus-width = <8>;
mmc-hs400-1_8v;
There are max-frequency limiation of sdmmc and sdhci in there uboot.
Pathed radxa u-boot, ubunt server does not get stuck any more when reboot system.
But SD card can not trun on SDR104 mode after reboot.
It back to 50Mhz SDXC mode.

Have to re-plug power cable to enable SDR104 mode.
During my test, sd-uhs-sdr104 mode does make huge performance improvement and works stable.
Can your engineer look into this issue to make sure SDR104 mode can always been turned on for U3 class SD card .
