GPMC dummy chip is being modified to so that irq descriptors are created dynamically [1], with a final goal of reaching something similar to [2], please let me know if any comments on those. Hi Ming, Requesting irq is called by driver of IP, while whether it is shared or not depends on SoC where IP lives, so ideally it seems platform should inform the driver whether it is shared & driver should do what platform tells. Or else to be safe, it should be made shared always ? This may not make much sense now w.r.t gpmc, but would be applicable once gpmc becomes a driver (undergoing conversion), but may not be that important as there are no SoCs presently sharing gpmc interrupt (afaik) Regards Afzal [1] http://www.mail-archive.com/linux-omap@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/msg68745.html [2] http://www.mail-archive.com/linux-omap@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/msg67496.html -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-omap" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
