I am totally happy to fix things up but might need a couple pointers. 1) uses the irqchip API / uses irq domains The driver does use both the irqchip API and domains, what part of the IRQ API are we not using that we should be? The driver registers an irq domain using irq_domain_create_linear. It requests its parent IRQ using request_threaded_irq. It passes IRQs onto the devices requesting IRQs from it using handle_nested_irq and irq_find_mapping. Is the objection here that regmap is making these calls for us, rather than them being hard coded into this driver? 2) driver is firmware-driven (DT or ACPI, pick your poison) The irq chip has representation in firmware, in fact we have tested this on both ACPI and DT. Other devices can request IRQs from it through firmware, same as they can for any other IRQ chip. Is the objection here the table mapping the register fields that are provided as an IRQ on the device? Thanks kindly for your review and help, Charles
