Hi,
DTS bindings document for mpc8xxx GPIOs implies that to use GPIO as IRQ
one should specify GPIO controller node and GPIO number in device tree
node,
like this:
funkyfpga@0 {
compatible = "funky-fpga";
...
interrupts = <9 2>;
interrupt-parent = <&gpio2>;
};
I suppose the intention here is to do the following in driver code:
int irq;
struct device node *np;
np = of_find_compatible_node((NULL, NULL, "funky-fpga");
irq = irq_of_parse_and_map(np, 0);
request_irq(irq, ...);
However this doesn't work as expected. The resulting virq
is connected to real interrupt controller, mpic, and not to
GPIO controller. As a result, interrupt handler is never invoked.
This is what /proc/interrupts shows:
20: 0 OpenPIC Edge funky-fpga
On the other hand, when using
#define FPGA_IRQ_GPIO 169
request_gpio(FPGA_IRQ_GPIO);
gpio_direction_input(FPGA_IRQ_GPIO);
irq = gpio_to_irq(FPGA_IRQ_GPIO);
request_irq(irq, ...);
the connection to GPIO controller is created properly,
/proc/interrupts shows
20: 0 mpc8xxx_gpio Edge funky-fpga
The drawback of this approach is that GPIO IRQ cannot
be naturally specified in device tree by GPIO controller number
and GPIO pin number.
So what is the correct way to refer to 85XX GPIO IRQs in driver
code ?
Thanks.
Felix.
