+MIPS Global Interrupt Controller (GIC)
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+The MIPS GIC routes external interrupts to individual VPEs and IRQ pins.
|
|
|
+It also supports local (per-processor) interrupts and software-generated
|
|
|
+interrupts which can be used as IPIs. The GIC also includes a free-running
|
|
|
+global timer, per-CPU count/compare timers, and a watchdog.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+Required properties:
|
|
|
+- compatible : Should be "mti,gic".
|
|
|
+- interrupt-controller : Identifies the node as an interrupt controller
|
|
|
+- #interrupt-cells : Specifies the number of cells needed to encode an
|
|
|
+ interrupt specifier. Should be 3.
|
|
|
+ - The first cell is the type of interrupt, local or shared.
|
|
|
+ See <include/dt-bindings/interrupt-controller/mips-gic.h>.
|
|
|
+ - The second cell is the GIC interrupt number.
|
|
|
+ - The third cell encodes the interrupt flags.
|
|
|
+ See <include/dt-bindings/interrupt-controller/irq.h> for a list of valid
|
|
|
+ flags.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+Optional properties:
|
|
|
+- reg : Base address and length of the GIC registers. If not present,
|
|
|
+ the base address reported by the hardware GCR_GIC_BASE will be used.
|
|
|
+- mti,reserved-cpu-vectors : Specifies the list of CPU interrupt vectors
|
|
|
+ to which the GIC may not route interrupts. Valid values are 2 - 7.
|
|
|
+ This property is ignored if the CPU is started in EIC mode.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+Required properties for timer sub-node:
|
|
|
+- compatible : Should be "mti,gic-timer".
|
|
|
+- interrupts : Interrupt for the GIC local timer.
|
|
|
+- clock-frequency : Clock frequency at which the GIC timers operate.
|

|
|
+Example:
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ gic: interrupt-controller@1bdc0000 {
|
|
|
+ compatible = "mti,gic";
|
|
|
+ reg = <0x1bdc0000 0x20000>;
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ interrupt-controller;
|
|
|
+ #interrupt-cells = <3>;
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ mti,reserved-cpu-vectors = <7>;
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ timer {
|
|
|
+ compatible = "mti,gic-timer";
|
|
|
+ interrupts = <GIC_LOCAL 1 IRQ_TYPE_NONE>;
|
|
|
+ clock-frequency = <50000000>;
|
|
|
+ };
|
|
|
+ };

|
|

+ interrupt-parent = <&gic>;
|
