DTS configuration of external interrupts on 8347

2008-07-23 Thread Richard Whitlock

I have a small problem with a port of linux 2.6.26 to a custom board.
Our board is almost identical to the Analogue & Micro asp 8347 board, so 
I'm using Kumar Gala's excellent fsl tree (thank you Kumar) as it 
already has a defconfig for the asp.
Thanks also to Bryan O'Donoghue for pointing us in the direction of the 
asp port in the first place.


The problem we have is I am unable to request an external interrupt. We 
have an FPGA which has an interrupt line - HW IRQ_0, so thats linux IRQ 48.

I have added the following to the dts file:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] {
   interrupts = <48 8>;
   interrupt-parent = <&ipic>;
}

but whenever I call request_irq() it returns -ENOSYS.

The driver loads fine, and the open function does very little - a call 
to ioremap() - which works, and a call to request_irq() which does not.

Is there anything else I have to do to configure this interrupt?

Regards,

Richard.

I don't think you have enough information in the dts. We do the same
thing on the warp (you can look at the warp.dts):

[EMAIL PROTECTED],0 {
compatible = "pika,fpga";
reg = <0x0002 0x 0x1000>;
interrupts = <0x18 0x8>;
interrupt-parent = <&UIC0>;
};

You need the compatible, maybe "kfaf,fpga", and I believe the reg entry
although you could try without it.

You then can use:

of_find_compatible_node
irq_of_parse_and_map
request_irq

platforms/44x/warp.c shows an example using the ad7414. Just change the
ad7414 string to your compatible string.

Cheers,
   Sean

Sean,

Thanks for that - our original code had no call to irq_of_parse_and_map().
We've put that in, as well as a call to of_find_compatible_node(), and 
now everything works fine. We have also modified our dts file along the 
lines you suggested.

Cheers,


Richard.

The docs on OF/DTS are very poor in this specific area. For starters, 
it's naturally assumed that after linking the drivers in and adding 
device nodes to device tree source file, all is done. But that is NOT 
enough, espeicially for non-bus device drivers. Sometime, you must add 
init code to search device tree nodes you are interested, add device 
objects for them.


I see a bunch of patches on dts documentation are pending for 2.6.27. 
Wish this area will be improved.
