The interrupt request from each group are connected to a parent +interrupt controller, such as GIC in case of Exynos4210. + +The interrupt combiner controller consists of multiple combiners. Upto eight +interrupt sources can be connected to a combiner. The combiner outputs one +combined interrupt for its eight interrupt sources. The combined interrupt +is usually connected to a parent interrupt controller. + +A single node in the device tree is used to describe the interrupt combiner +controller module (which includes multiple combiners). A combiner in the +interrupt controller module shares config/control registers with other +combiners. For example, a 32-bit interrupt enable/disable config register +can accommodate upto 4 interrupt combiners (with each combiner supporting +upto 8 interrupt sources). + +Required properties: +- compatible: should be "samsung,exynos4210-combiner". +- interrupt-controller: Identifies the node as an interrupt controller. +- #interrupt-cells: should be <2>. The meaning of the cells are + * First Cell: Combiner Group Number. + * Second Cell: Interrupt number within the group. +- reg: Base address and size of interrupt combiner registers. +- interrupts: The list of interrupts generated by the combiners which are then + connected to a parent interrupt controller. The format of the interrupt + specifier depends in the interrupt parent controller. + +Optional properties: +- samsung,combiner-nr: The number of interrupt combiners supported. If this + property is not specified, the default number of combiners is assumed + to be 16. +- interrupt-parent: pHandle of the parent interrupt controller, if not + inherited from the parent node. + + +Example: + + The following is a an example from the Exynos4210 SoC dtsi file. + + combiner:interrupt-controller@10440000 { + compatible = "samsung,exynos4210-combiner"; + interrupt-controller; + #interrupt-cells = <2>; + reg = <0x10440000 0x1000>; + interrupts = <0 0 0>, <0 1 0>, <0 2 0>, <0 3 0>, + <0 4 0>, <0 5 0>, <0 6 0>, <0 7 0>, + <0 8 0>, <0 9 0>, <0 10 0>, <0 11 0>, + <0 12 0>, <0 13 0>, <0 14 0>, <0 15 0>; + }; |
