Folks, I have a few questions about an interrupt controller IP block that I would like to support in an ARM SoC port. My IP block provides software-assignable interrupts. That is, I have a large pool of interrupt sources, and a large pool of interrupt bits in the controller, but they are not physically tied together. Instead they are assigned by some driver as it initializes and allocates resources. This, I think, means that I can not describe the interrupt bindings in the DTS file. So, my first question is: Should I still write an irqchip device for this IP block and represent it in the device tree, even though I will not be able to use it as the referee of an interrupt = < ... > binding? I think I should primarily because other drivers will still need to set up IRQ handling through this device. Another question: This device has a muti-32-bit-word bit-field representation for the interrupt lines. It has a parallel array of words for clearing the interrupt. Is there an existing irqchip that I can directly leverage that fits that description?
