From 2ff404005e9f94ee3d05b6b0dac8204c1fcc2346 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Andrew Bresticker Date: Wed, 12 Nov 2014 11:43:37 -0800 Subject: of: Add binding document for MIPS GIC The Global Interrupt Controller (GIC) present on certain MIPS systems can be used to route external interrupts to individual VPEs and CPU interrupt vectors. It also supports a timer and software-generated interrupts.

The GIC also includes a free-running +global timer, per-CPU count/compare timers, and a watchdog. + +Required properties: +- compatible : Should be "mti,gic". +- interrupt-controller : Identifies the node as an interrupt controller +- #interrupt-cells : Specifies the number of cells needed to encode an + interrupt specifier. Should be 3. + - The first cell is the type of interrupt, local or shared. + See . + - The second cell is the GIC interrupt number. + - The third cell encodes the interrupt flags. + See for a list of valid + flags. + +Optional properties: +- reg : Base address and length of the GIC registers.
