Documentation: bcm7120-l2: Add Broadcom BCM7120-style L2 binding
This patch adds the Device Tree binding document for the Broadcom BCM7120-style Set-top-box Level 2 interrupt controller hardware. We provide some ascii art explaining the different roles and reasons why some properties are introduced to represent that interrupt controller.

Broadcom BCM7120-style Level 2 interrupt controller
|
||||
|
||||
This interrupt controller hardware is a second level interrupt controller that
|
||||
is hooked to a parent interrupt controller: e.g: ARM GIC for ARM-based
|
||||
platforms. It can be found on BCM7xxx products starting with BCM7120.
|
||||
|
||||
Such an interrupt controller has the following hardware design:
|
||||
|
||||
- outputs multiple interrupts signals towards its interrupt controller parent
|
||||
|
||||
- controls how some of the interrupts will be flowing, whether they will
|
||||
directly output an interrupt signal towards the interrupt controller parent,
|
||||
or if they will output an interrupt signal at this 2nd level interrupt
|
||||
controller, in particular for UARTs
|
||||
|
||||
- not all 32-bits within the interrupt controller actually map to an interrupt
|
||||
|
||||
The typical hardware layout for this controller is represented below:
|
||||
|
||||

Required properties:
|
||||
|
||||
- compatible: should be "brcm,bcm7120-l2-intc"
|
||||
- reg: specifies the base physical address and size of the registers
|
||||
- interrupt-controller: identifies the node as an interrupt controller
|
||||
- #interrupt-cells: specifies the number of cells needed to encode an interrupt
|
||||
source, should be 1.
|
||||
- interrupt-parent: specifies the phandle to the parent interrupt controller
|
||||
this one is cascaded from
|
||||
- interrupts: specifies the interrupt line(s) in the interrupt-parent controller
|
||||
node, valid values depend on the type of parent interrupt controller
|
||||
- brcm,int-map-mask: 32-bits bit mask describing how many and which interrupts
|
||||
are wired to this 2nd level interrupt controller, and how they match their
|
||||
respective interrupt parents. Should match exactly the number of interrupts
|
||||
specified in the 'interrupts' property.
|
||||
|
||||
Optional properties:
|
||||
|
||||
- brcm,irq-can-wake: if present, this means the L2 controller can be used as a
|
||||
wakeup source for system suspend/resume.
|
||||
|
||||
- brcm,int-fwd-mask: if present, a 32-bits bit mask to configure for the
|
||||
interrupts which have a mux gate, typically UARTs. Setting these bits will
|
||||
make their respective interrupts outputs bypass this 2nd level interrupt
|
||||
controller completely, it completely transparent for the interrupt controller
|
||||
parent
|
||||
|
||||
Example:
|
||||
|
||||
irq0_intc: interrupt-controller@f0406800 {
|
||||
compatible = "brcm,bcm7120-l2-intc";
|
||||
interrupt-parent = <&intc>;
|
||||
#interrupt-cells = <1>;
|
||||
reg = <0xf0406800 0x8>;
|
||||
interrupt-controller;
|
||||
interrupts = <0x0 0x42 0x0>, <0x0 0x40 0x0>;
|
||||
brcm,int-map-mask = <0xeb8>, <0x140>;
|
||||
brcm,int-fwd-mask = <0x7>;
|
||||
};
