Can a USB card-reader ever appear as /dev/mmcblk0 and support the MMC ioctl commands?
I see there are some kernel driver modules such as:
rtsx_usb_sdmmc.ko (rtsx-usb-sdmmc)
rtsx_usb.ko (rtsx-usb)
Can these make a realtek card reader, attached to the USB bus appear as a real MMC device? I notice that all the USB card readers I have access to appear as /dev/sdX. which appear to be an emulated SCSI device. These emulated SCSI devices do not support all the MMC operations (ioctl).
Are there certain USB-attached card-readers (chips) that appear as a /dev/mmcblkX instead of /dev/sdX?
This would allow the card to support blkdiscard, trim or fstrim.
