The type shall be a <u32> and the value shall be 3. + + The 1st cell is the interrupt type; 0 for SPI interrupts, 1 for PPI + interrupts. + + The 2nd cell contains the interrupt number for the interrupt type. + SPI interrupts are in the range [0-987]. PPI interrupts are in the + range [0-15]. + + The 3rd cell is the flags, encoded as follows: + bits[3:0] trigger type and level flags. + 1 = low-to-high edge triggered + 2 = high-to-low edge triggered (invalid for SPIs) + 4 = active high level-sensitive + 8 = active low level-sensitive (invalid for SPIs). + bits[15:8] PPI interrupt cpu mask. Each bit corresponds to each of + the 8 possible cpus attached to the GIC. A bit set to '1' indicated + the interrupt is wired to that CPU. Only valid for PPI interrupts. + Also note that the configurability of PPI interrupts is IMPLEMENTATION + DEFINED and as such not guaranteed to be present (most SoC available + in 2014 seem to ignore the setting of this flag and use the hardware + default value). + +- reg : Specifies base physical address(s) and size of the GIC registers. The + first region is the GIC distributor register base and size. The 2nd region is + the GIC cpu interface register base and size. + +Optional +- interrupts : Interrupt source of the parent interrupt controller on + secondary GICs, or VGIC maintenance interrupt on primary GIC (see + below). + +- cpu-offset : per-cpu offset within the distributor and cpu interface + regions, used when the GIC doesn't have banked registers. The offset is + cpu-offset * cpu-nr. + +- clocks : List of phandle and clock-specific pairs, one for each entry + in clock-names. +- clock-names : List of names for the GIC clock input(s). Valid clock names + depend on the GIC variant: + "ic_clk" (for "arm,arm11mp-gic") + "PERIPHCLKEN" (for "arm,cortex-a15-gic") + "PERIPHCLK", "PERIPHCLKEN" (for "arm,cortex-a9-gic") + "clk" (for "arm,gic-400" and "nvidia,tegra210") + "gclk" (for "arm,pl390") + +- power-domains : A phandle and PM domain specifier as defined by bindings of + the power controller specified by phandle, used when the GIC + is part of a Power or Clock Domain. + + +Example: + + intc: interrupt-controller@fff11000 { + compatible = "arm,cortex-a9-gic"; + #interrupt-cells = <3>; + #address-cells = <1>; + interrupt-controller; + reg = <0xfff11000 0x1000>, + <0xfff10100 0x100>; + }; + + +* GIC virtualization extensions (VGIC) + +For ARM cores that support the virtualization extensions, additional +properties must be described (they only exist if the GIC is the +primary interrupt controller). + +Required properties: + +- reg : Additional regions specifying the base physical address and + size of the VGIC registers.
