With DT, they get dynamically allocated as required. For the board files, you can hardcode the original definition of 32 IRQs, but I think you don't need that if you register a legacy IRQ domain in mach-w90x900/irq.c. > and then in my irqchip driver, I will use the NUC900_NR_IRQS: > > +aic_domain = irq_domain_add_linear(node, NUC900_NR_IRQS, > + &aic_irq_domain_ops, NULL); > > > Is that a right usage? This does not look right when NUC900_NR_IRQS can have configuration dependent values. I can see two ways of handling it: a) register the maximum number of IRQs that the irqchip can handle. There is no real cost for having a large number here, as SPARSE_IRQ ensures we only need to allocate the descriptors that are actually used. b) make the number of interrupts dependent on the compatible string for the irqchip, and handle NUC970 differently from the others in the driver. In the meantime, I also have a series to enable multiplatform support for all of mach-w90x900 based on your patches, but lacking a proper clk driver. I'll send that to you so you can include it in your series (after verifying that it works, or fixing it where necessary).
