1 | * Samsung Exynos Interrupt Combiner Controller | ||
2 | |||
3 | Samsung's Exynos4 architecture includes a interrupt combiner controller which | ||
4 | can combine interrupt sources as a group and provide a single interrupt request | ||
5 | for the group. The interrupt request from each group are connected to a parent | ||
6 | interrupt controller, such as GIC in case of Exynos4210. | ||
7 | |||
8 | The interrupt combiner controller consists of multiple combiners. Upto eight | ||
9 | interrupt sources can be connected to a combiner. The combiner outputs one | ||
10 | combined interrupt for its eight interrupt sources. The combined interrupt | ||
11 | is usually connected to a parent interrupt controller. | ||
12 | |||
13 | A single node in the device tree is used to describe the interrupt combiner | ||
14 | controller module (which includes multiple combiners). A combiner in the | ||
15 | interrupt controller module shares config/control registers with other | ||
16 | combiners. For example, a 32-bit interrupt enable/disable config register | ||
17 | can accommodate upto 4 interrupt combiners (with each combiner supporting | ||
18 | upto 8 interrupt sources). | ||
19 | |||
20 | Required properties: | ||
21 | - compatible: should be "samsung,exynos4210-combiner". | ||
22 | - interrupt-controller: Identifies the node as an interrupt controller. | ||
23 | - #interrupt-cells: should be <2>. The meaning of the cells are | ||
24 | * First Cell: Combiner Group Number. | ||
25 | * Second Cell: Interrupt number within the group. | ||
26 | - reg: Base address and size of interrupt combiner registers. | ||
27 | - interrupts: The list of interrupts generated by the combiners which are then | ||
28 | connected to a parent interrupt controller. The format of the interrupt | ||
29 | specifier depends in the interrupt parent controller. | ||
30 | |||
31 | Optional properties: | ||
32 | - samsung,combiner-nr: The number of interrupt combiners supported. If this | ||
33 | property is not specified, the default number of combiners is assumed | ||
34 | to be 16. | ||
35 | - interrupt-parent: pHandle of the parent interrupt controller, if not | ||
36 | inherited from the parent node. | ||
37 | |||
38 | |||
39 | Example: | ||
40 | |||
41 | The following is a an example from the Exynos4210 SoC dtsi file. | ||
42 | |||
43 | combiner:interrupt-controller@10440000 { | ||
44 | compatible = "samsung,exynos4210-combiner"; | ||
45 | interrupt-controller; | ||
46 | #interrupt-cells = <2>; | ||
47 | reg = <0x10440000 0x1000>; | ||
48 | interrupts = <0 0 0>, <0 1 0>, <0 2 0>, <0 3 0>, | ||
49 | <0 4 0>, <0 5 0>, <0 6 0>, <0 7 0>, | ||
50 | <0 8 0>, <0 9 0>, <0 10 0>, <0 11 0>, | ||
51 | <0 12 0>, <0 13 0>, <0 14 0>, <0 15 0>; | ||
52 | }; | ||
