1* ARM Generic Interrupt Controller
2
3ARM SMP cores are often associated with a GIC, providing per processor
4interrupts (PPI), shared processor interrupts (SPI) and software
5generated interrupts (SGI).
6
7Primary GIC is attached directly to the CPU and typically has PPIs and SGIs.
8Secondary GICs are cascaded into the upward interrupt controller and do not
9have PPIs or SGIs.
10
11Main node required properties:
12
13- compatible : should be one of:
14	"arm,arm1176jzf-devchip-gic"
15	"arm,arm11mp-gic"
16	"arm,cortex-a15-gic"
17	"arm,cortex-a7-gic"
18	"arm,cortex-a9-gic"
19	"arm,eb11mp-gic"
20	"arm,gic-400"
21	"arm,pl390"
22	"arm,tc11mp-gic"
23	"brcm,brahma-b15-gic"
24	"nvidia,tegra210-agic"
25	"qcom,msm-8660-qgic"
26	"qcom,msm-qgic2"
27- interrupt-controller : Identifies the node as an interrupt controller
28- #interrupt-cells : Specifies the number of cells needed to encode an
29  interrupt source.  The type shall be a <u32> and the value shall be 3.
30
31  The 1st cell is the interrupt type; 0 for SPI interrupts, 1 for PPI
32  interrupts.
33
34  The 2nd cell contains the interrupt number for the interrupt type.
35  SPI interrupts are in the range [0-987].  PPI interrupts are in the
36  range [0-15].
37
38  The 3rd cell is the flags, encoded as follows:
39	bits[3:0] trigger type and level flags.
40		1 = low-to-high edge triggered
41		2 = high-to-low edge triggered (invalid for SPIs)
42		4 = active high level-sensitive
43		8 = active low level-sensitive (invalid for SPIs).
44	bits[15:8] PPI interrupt cpu mask.  Each bit corresponds to each of
45	the 8 possible cpus attached to the GIC.  A bit set to '1' indicated
46	the interrupt is wired to that CPU.  Only valid for PPI interrupts.
47	Also note that the configurability of PPI interrupts is IMPLEMENTATION
48	DEFINED and as such not guaranteed to be present (most SoC available
49	in 2014 seem to ignore the setting of this flag and use the hardware
50	default value).
51
52- reg : Specifies base physical address(s) and size of the GIC registers. The
53  first region is the GIC distributor register base and size. The 2nd region is
54  the GIC cpu interface register base and size.
55
56Optional
57- interrupts	: Interrupt source of the parent interrupt controller on
58  secondary GICs, or VGIC maintenance interrupt on primary GIC (see
59  below).
60
61- cpu-offset	: per-cpu offset within the distributor and cpu interface
62  regions, used when the GIC doesn't have banked registers. The offset is
63  cpu-offset * cpu-nr.
64
65- clocks        : List of phandle and clock-specific pairs, one for each entry
66  in clock-names.
67- clock-names   : List of names for the GIC clock input(s). Valid clock names
68  depend on the GIC variant:
69	"ic_clk" (for "arm,arm11mp-gic")
70	"PERIPHCLKEN" (for "arm,cortex-a15-gic")
71	"PERIPHCLK", "PERIPHCLKEN" (for "arm,cortex-a9-gic")
72	"clk" (for "arm,gic-400" and "nvidia,tegra210")
73	"gclk" (for "arm,pl390")
74
75- power-domains : A phandle and PM domain specifier as defined by bindings of
76		  the power controller specified by phandle, used when the GIC
77		  is part of a Power or Clock Domain.
78
79
80Example:
81
82	intc: interrupt-controller@fff11000 {
83		compatible = "arm,cortex-a9-gic";
84		#interrupt-cells = <3>;
85		#address-cells = <1>;
86		interrupt-controller;
87		reg = <0xfff11000 0x1000>,
88		      <0xfff10100 0x100>;
89	};
90
91
92* GIC virtualization extensions (VGIC)
93
94For ARM cores that support the virtualization extensions, additional
95properties must be described (they only exist if the GIC is the
96primary interrupt controller).
97
98Required properties:
99
100- reg : Additional regions specifying the base physical address and
101  size of the VGIC registers. The first additional region is the GIC
102  virtual interface control register base and size. The 2nd additional
103  region is the GIC virtual cpu interface register base and size.
104
105- interrupts : VGIC maintenance interrupt.
106
107Example:
108
109	interrupt-controller@2c001000 {
110		compatible = "arm,cortex-a15-gic";
111		#interrupt-cells = <3>;
112		interrupt-controller;
113		reg = <0x2c001000 0x1000>,
114		      <0x2c002000 0x2000>,
115		      <0x2c004000 0x2000>,
116		      <0x2c006000 0x2000>;
117		interrupts = <1 9 0xf04>;
118	};
119
120
121* GICv2m extension for MSI/MSI-x support (Optional)
122
123Certain revisions of GIC-400 supports MSI/MSI-x via V2M register frame(s).
124This is enabled by specifying v2m sub-node(s).
125
126Required properties:
127
128- compatible	    : The value here should contain "arm,gic-v2m-frame".
129
130- msi-controller    : Identifies the node as an MSI controller.
131
132- reg		    : GICv2m MSI interface register base and size
133
134Optional properties:
135
136- arm,msi-base-spi  : When the MSI_TYPER register contains an incorrect
137  		      value, this property should contain the SPI base of
138		      the MSI frame, overriding the HW value.
139
140- arm,msi-num-spis  : When the MSI_TYPER register contains an incorrect
141  		      value, this property should contain the number of
142		      SPIs assigned to the frame, overriding the HW value.
143
144Example:
145
146	interrupt-controller@e1101000 {
147		compatible = "arm,gic-400";
148		#interrupt-cells = <3>;
149		#address-cells = <2>;
150		#size-cells = <2>;
151		interrupt-controller;
152		interrupts = <1 8 0xf04>;
153		ranges = <0 0 0 0xe1100000 0 0x100000>;
154		reg = <0x0 0xe1110000 0 0x01000>,
155		      <0x0 0xe112f000 0 0x02000>,
156		      <0x0 0xe1140000 0 0x10000>,
157		      <0x0 0xe1160000 0 0x10000>;
158		v2m0: v2m@8000 {
159			compatible = "arm,gic-v2m-frame";
160			msi-controller;
161			reg = <0x0 0x80000 0 0x1000>;
162		};
163
164		....
165
166		v2mN: v2m@9000 {
167			compatible = "arm,gic-v2m-frame";
168			msi-controller;
169			reg = <0x0 0x90000 0 0x1000>;
170		};
171	};
