+Broadcom BCM6345-style Level 1 interrupt controller
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+This block is a first level interrupt controller that is typically connected
|
|
|
+directly to one of the HW INT lines on each CPU.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+Key elements of the hardware design include:
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+- 32, 64 or 128 incoming level IRQ lines
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+- Most onchip peripherals are wired directly to an L1 input
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+- A separate instance of the register set for each CPU, allowing individual
|
|
|
+ peripheral IRQs to be routed to any CPU
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+- Contains one or more enable/status word pairs per CPU
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+- No atomic set/clear operations
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+- No polarity/level/edge settings
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+- No FIFO or priority encoder logic; software is expected to read all
|
|
|
+ 2-4 status words to determine which IRQs are pending
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+Required properties:
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+- compatible: should be "brcm,bcm<soc>-l1-intc", "brcm,bcm6345-l1-intc"
|
|
|
+- reg: specifies the base physical address and size of the registers;
|
|
|
+ the number of supported IRQs is inferred from the size argument
|
|
|
+- interrupt-controller: identifies the node as an interrupt controller
|
|
|
+- #interrupt-cells: specifies the number of cells needed to encode an interrupt
|
|
|
+ source, should be 1.
|
|
|
+- interrupt-parent: specifies the phandle to the parent interrupt controller(s)
|
|
|
+ this one is cascaded from
|
|
|
+- interrupts: specifies the interrupt line(s) in the interrupt-parent controller
|
|
|
+ node; valid values depend on the type of parent interrupt controller
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+If multiple reg ranges and interrupt-parent entries are present on an SMP
|
|
|
+system, the driver will allow IRQ SMP affinity to be set up through the
|
|
|
+/proc/irq/ interface. In the simplest possible configuration, only one
|
|
|
+reg range and one interrupt-parent is needed.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+The driver operates in native CPU endian by default, there is no support for
|
|
|
+specifying an alternative endianness.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+Example:
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+periph_intc: interrupt-controller@10000000 {
|
|
|
+ compatible = "brcm,bcm63168-l1-intc", "brcm,bcm6345-l1-intc";
|
|
|
+ reg = <0x10000020 0x20>,
|
|
|
+ <0x10000040 0x20>;
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ interrupt-controller;
|
|
|
+ #interrupt-cells = <1>;
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ interrupt-parent = <&cpu_intc>;
|
|
|
+ interrupts = <2>, <3>;
|
|
|
+};
