metag: Internal and external irqchips
Meta core internal interrupts (from HWSTATMETA and friends) are vectored
onto the TR1 core trigger for the current thread. This is demultiplexed
in irq-metag.c to individual Linux IRQs for each internal interrupt.
External SoC interrupts (from HWSTATEXT and friends) are vectored onto
the TR2 core trigger for the current thread. This is demultiplexed in
irq-metag-ext.c to individual Linux IRQs for each external SoC interrupt.
The external irqchip has devicetree bindings for configuring the number
of irq banks and the type of masking available.

1 | * Meta External Trigger Controller Binding | ||
2 | |||
3 | This binding specifies what properties must be available in the device tree | ||
4 | representation of a Meta external trigger controller. | ||
5 | |||
6 | Required properties: | ||
7 | |||
8 | - compatible: Specifies the compatibility list for the interrupt controller. | ||
9 | The type shall be <string> and the value shall include "img,meta-intc". | ||
10 | |||
11 | - num-banks: Specifies the number of interrupt banks (each of which can | ||
12 | handle 32 interrupt sources). | ||
13 | |||
14 | - interrupt-controller: The presence of this property identifies the node | ||
15 | as an interupt controller. No property value shall be defined. | ||
16 | |||
17 | - #interrupt-cells: Specifies the number of cells needed to encode an | ||
18 | interrupt source. The type shall be a <u32> and the value shall be 2. | ||
19 | |||
20 | - #address-cells: Specifies the number of cells needed to encode an | ||
21 | address. The type shall be <u32> and the value shall be 0. As such, | ||
22 | 'interrupt-map' nodes do not have to specify a parent unit address. | ||
23 | |||
24 | Optional properties: | ||
25 | |||
26 | - no-mask: The controller doesn't have any mask registers. | ||
27 | |||
28 | * Interrupt Specifier Definition | ||
29 | |||
30 | Interrupt specifiers consists of 2 cells encoded as follows: | ||
31 | |||
32 | - <1st-cell>: The interrupt-number that identifies the interrupt source. | ||
33 | |||
34 | - <2nd-cell>: The Linux interrupt flags containing level-sense information, | ||
35 | encoded as follows: | ||
36 | 1 = edge triggered | ||
37 | 4 = level-sensitive | ||
38 | |||
39 | * Examples | ||
40 | |||
41 | Example 1: | ||
42 | |||
43 | /* | ||
44 | * Meta external trigger block | ||
45 | */ | ||
46 | intc: intc { | ||
47 | // This is an interrupt controller node. | ||
48 | interrupt-controller; | ||
49 | |||
50 | // No address cells so that 'interrupt-map' nodes which | ||
51 | // reference this interrupt controller node do not need a parent | ||
52 | // address specifier. | ||
53 | #address-cells = <0>; | ||
54 | |||
55 | // Two cells to encode interrupt sources. | ||
56 | #interrupt-cells = <2>; | ||
57 | |||
58 | // Number of interrupt banks | ||
59 | num-banks = <2>; | ||
60 | |||
61 | // No HWMASKEXT is available (specify on Chorus2 and Comet ES1) | ||
62 | no-mask; | ||
63 | |||
64 | // Compatible with Meta hardware trigger block. | ||
65 | compatible = "img,meta-intc"; | ||
66 | }; | ||
67 | |||
68 | Example 2: | ||
69 | |||
70 | /* | ||
71 | * An interrupt generating device that is wired to a Meta external | ||
72 | * trigger block. | ||
73 | */ | ||
74 | uart1: uart@0x02004c00 { | ||
75 | // Interrupt source '5' that is level-sensitive. | ||
76 | // Note that there are only two cells as specified in the | ||
77 | // interrupt parent's '#interrupt-cells' property. | ||
78 | interrupts = <5 4 /* level */>; | ||
79 | |||
80 | // The interrupt controller that this device is wired to. | ||
81 | interrupt-parent = <&intc>; | ||
82 | }; | ||
