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>; | ||
}; |
