root '/dev/mmcblk0p6' doesn't exist or does not contain a /dev.
Hi!
Problem: The board boots correctly into the Linux kernel, but the kernel is unable to mount the rootfs.
We designed a custom board using stm32mp157f. It is based on the DK2 with some differences:
- PLL Base clock 48Mhz (instead of 24MHz)
- Other power supply than the pmic (with a fixed power regulators)
- eMMC on board (not used)
Therefore changes to the tf-a and u-boot (dts) had to be made.The changes were applied on copies of the dts files for stm32mp157f-dk2.
u-boot sees mmc0:

};cd-gpios is different to DK2. Its functionality could be verified in u-boot:
SD card connected:
STM32MP> gpio input 138
gpio: pin 138 (gpio 138) value is 0
SD card ejected:
STM32MP> gpio input 138
gpio: pin 138 (gpio 138) value is 1
This output is different to -DK2
STM32MP> gpio show 138
gpio: pin 138 (gpio 138) value is 1
Warning: value of pin is still 0
I even tried to use the kernel, initrd and device tree of the -dk2 build and replaced them in the boot partition. But this also did not work.
What error could we made, that the mmc devices are visible and accessible in u-boot, but not by the kernel?
Thank you in advance!
