From: Rob Herring <rob.herring@calxeda.com>

This adds gic initialization using device tree data. An example device tree
binding looks like this:

intc: interrupt-controller@fff11000 {
        compatible = "arm,cortex-a9-gic";
        #interrupt-cells = <1>;
        interrupt-controller;
        reg = <0xfff11000 0x1000>,
              <0xfff10100 0x100>;
        irq-start = <29>;
};

This doesn't match the implementation in this patch.  The
implementation only matches against the cortex-a9 gic.

Also, I expect that the gic is different between the arm,cortex-a9-gic
and the arm,arm11-mp-gic.  Is the tegra also a different gic
implementation?  Or can it be expected that the tegra gic will simply
claim compatibility with the a9 gic?

Drop irq-start.  That's a Linux internal implementation detail, and
Linux can easily handle dynamic assignment of irq ranges.

If board support code still has special needs on specific platforms,
then we can manually override the assigned range for that specific
platform only as a short term workaround.

This can only handle a single gic in a system.  This is a start, but
multiple interrupt controllers must be supported, like for the Samsung
socs.

I've been toying with writing some code that walks the interrupt
controller tree, finds the root controller, and then sets up each
child controller as a cascade.

I was just trying to make the doc somewhat complete although I'm missing
msm.

They are all using the same code today, so yes thay are all compatible.
I'm not even sure that tegra is different than standard A9. I pulled
that from your tree. There are some h/w differences in terms of
powergating of the GIC or not and when. How to handle that is still
being hashed out a bit.

It's really about skipping the SGI interrupts and unused PPIs which is
h/w specific. That isn't really necessary AFAICT, but I'm not too sure
why it was even done in the first place.

Huh? Only Realview boards have a 2nd level controller. The Samsung
boards are using the VIC. Are you referring to something not in mainline
yet?

That would be interesting especially if gpio controllers were included.
It's probably overkill for just the few platforms that have multiple GICs.

In general, bindings focus on the hardware and hardware configuration
instead of what Linux needs internally.  For a lot of interrupt
controllers, an irq specifier consists of two u32 values.  The first
value being the hardware irq number (perhaps 0-15 in this case), and
the second value being a set of flags.

Without looking deeply and the GIC interface details, I suspect that
the CPU affinity would best be represented as a field in the flags
value.

The per-CPU PMU connections then wouldn't be any different from any
other irq in that the irq specifier would include a CPU affinity
value.

Yup, and that is exactly what is done.  On powerpc it uses the virtual
irq infrastructure.  For ARM and everyone else, there are patches on
list for irq_domain which implements the required behaviour.  The
interrupt controller driver can make decisions about how to map the
hardware irq to a linux irq number.  For most irq controllers, it will
be a simple 1:1 mapping, but for something complex like the gic, it
can do something different if need be.

>  But that sounds like a world of pain.

Actually, it turns out not to be.  We've been needing/wanting some
form of irq_domains anyway for a while now to better manage hwirq ->
linuxirq mappings.  Adding DT to the mix means also suppling a DT
decode function to get the hwirq number from the interrupt specifier.

I'll be reposting a bunch of patches in the next few days that fills
in most of the missing pieces for irq mapping.
