("of/irq: Fix lookup to use 'interrupts-extended' property first") updated the description to say that: - Both 'interrupts' and 'interrupts-extended' may be present - Software should prefer 'interrupts-extended' - Software that doesn't comprehend 'interrupts-extended' may use 'interrupts' But there is still a paragraph at the end that prohibits having both and says 'interrupts' should be preferred. Remove the contradictory text. Fixes:a9ecdc0fdc

Specifying interrupt information for devices
|
|
============================================
|
|
|
|
1) Interrupt client nodes
|
|
-------------------------
|
|
|
|
Nodes that describe devices which generate interrupts must contain an
|
|
"interrupts" property, an "interrupts-extended" property, or both. If both are
|
|
present, the latter should take precedence; the former may be provided simply
|
|
for compatibility with software that does not recognize the latter. These
|
|
properties contain a list of interrupt specifiers, one per output interrupt. The
|
|
format of the interrupt specifier is determined by the interrupt controller to
|
|
which the interrupts are routed; see section 2 below for details.
|
|
|
|
Example:
|
|
interrupt-parent = <&intc1>;
|
|
interrupts = <5 0>, <6 0>;
|
|
|
|
The "interrupt-parent" property is used to specify the controller to which
|
|
interrupts are routed and contains a single phandle referring to the interrupt
|
|
controller node. This property is inherited, so it may be specified in an
|
|
interrupt client node or in any of its parent nodes. Interrupts listed in the
|
|
"interrupts" property are always in reference to the node's interrupt parent.
|
|
|
|
The "interrupts-extended" property is a special form for use when a node needs
|
|
to reference multiple interrupt parents. Each entry in this property contains
|
|
both the parent phandle and the interrupt specifier. "interrupts-extended"
|
|
should only be used when a device has multiple interrupt parents.
|
|
|
|
Example:
|
|
interrupts-extended = <&intc1 5 1>, <&intc2 1 0>;
|
|
|
|
2) Interrupt controller nodes
|
|
-----------------------------
|
|
|
|
A device is marked as an interrupt controller with the "interrupt-controller"
|
|
property. This is a empty, boolean property. An additional "#interrupt-cells"
|
|
property defines the number of cells needed to specify a single interrupt.
|
|
|
|
It is the responsibility of the interrupt controller's binding to define the
|
|
length and format of the interrupt specifier. The following two variants are
|
|
commonly used:
|
|
|
|
a) one cell
|
|
-----------
|
|
The #interrupt-cells property is set to 1 and the single cell defines the
|
|
index of the interrupt within the controller.
|
|
|
|
Example:
|
|
|
|
vic: intc@10140000 {
|
|
compatible = "arm,versatile-vic";
|
|
interrupt-controller;
|
|
#interrupt-cells = <1>;
|
|
reg = <0x10140000 0x1000>;
|
|
};
|
|
|
|
sic: intc@10003000 {
|
|
compatible = "arm,versatile-sic";
|
|
interrupt-controller;
|
|
#interrupt-cells = <1>;
|
|
reg = <0x10003000 0x1000>;
|
|
interrupt-parent = <&vic>;
|
|
interrupts = <31>; /* Cascaded to vic */
|
|
};
|
|
|
|
b) two cells
|
|
------------
|
|
The #interrupt-cells property is set to 2 and the first cell defines the
|
|
index of the interrupt within the controller, while the second cell is used
|
|
to specify any of the following flags:
|
|
- bits[3:0] trigger type and level flags
|
|
1 = low-to-high edge triggered
|
|
2 = high-to-low edge triggered
|
|
4 = active high level-sensitive
|
|
8 = active low level-sensitive
|
|
|
|
Example:
|
|
|
|
i2c@7000c000 {
|
|
gpioext: gpio-adnp@41 {
|
|
compatible = "ad,gpio-adnp";
|
|
reg = <0x41>;
|
|
|
|
interrupt-parent = <&gpio>;
|
|
interrupts = <160 1>;
|
|
|
|
gpio-controller;
|
|
#gpio-cells = <1>;
|
|
|
|
interrupt-controller;
|
|
#interrupt-cells = <2>;
|
|
|
|
nr-gpios = <64>;
|
|
};
|
|
|
|
sx8634@2b {
|
|
compatible = "smtc,sx8634";
|
|
reg = <0x2b>;
|
|
|
|
interrupt-parent = <&gpioext>;
|
|
interrupts = <3 0x8>;
|
|
|
|
#address-cells = <1>;
|
|
#size-cells = <0>;
|
|
|
|
threshold = <0x40>;
|
|
sensitivity = <7>;
|
|
};
|
|
};
