Can you explain further why the VIC needs this information up-front? Presumably it can accumulate it as devices request interrupts. > diff --git a/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/arm/vic.txt b/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/arm/vic.txt > +- valid-mask : Bit mask of valid interrupt sources (defaults to all valid) Until a device requests an interrupt, it can be left disabled. Once something does request it, it gets enabled. If nothing requests it, it never gets enabled. Doesn't the result of that logic end up being the same thing as valid-mask represents? The only difference would be if some device requests an invalid interrupt source, but then why not just fix the interrupt client instead of adding this property to reject the request? > +- wakeup-mask : Bit mask of interrupt sources that can wake up the system > + (defaults to all allowed) Shouldn't drivers for end-devices request interrupts, and then set wake enable on those interrupts, which would then trickle up the IRQ chain to tell the VIC which interrupts to enable wakeup on? -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-samsung-soc" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
