eMMC Bus modes and bus width selection

Hi,
We are using Sandisk eMMC device version 5.1
We are developing application for switching different bus modes and bus width supported by the device.

  1. SDR bus mode with 1-bit, 4-bit and 8-bit bus width.
  2. DDR bus mode with 4-bit and 8-bit bus width.
  3. HS200 bus mode with 4-bit and 8-bit bus width.
  4. HS400 bus mode with 8-bit bus width.

For the same, Embedded Multi-Media Card Electrical Standard v5.1(JDEC) document is used for our reference.

Procedure followed to do the same is as below,
1. After booting the device, we are reading ext_csd[185] register. Value is 0x02. This indicates device operates in HS200 mode.
Example:
root@root# mmc extcsd read /dev/mmcblk1 | grep HS_TIMING
** High-speed interface timing [HS_TIMING: 0x02]**

2. Next I am writing below values to ext_csd[183] to select bus width
	* 0x01 for 1-bit bus width
	* 0x02 for 4-bit bus width
	* 0x03 for 8-bit bus width
3. Next I am writing 0x01 value to ext_csd[185] to select SDR bus mode.
Example:
	**root@root# mmc bus_mode_selection SDR x8 /dev/mmcblk1**

** SDR bus mode with 0x02 bus width is selected**

After completing above steps when I perform read/write operation, I am facing below issue.

mmc1: Tuning timeout, falling back to fixed sampling clock
usdhci-iw 43c00000.sd_host_controller: __mmc_blk_ioctl_cmd: data error -84
ioctl SEND_EXT_CSD: Invalid or incomplete multibyte or wide character
Could not read EXT_CSD from /dev/mmcblk1

I want to select Bus modes and validate read/write operation with supported bus width individually. How can I implement this?
Could you please provide your valuable input for the same.
