C6X Interrupt Chips
C64X+ Core Interrupt Controller
The core interrupt controller provides 16 prioritized interrupts to the
C64X+ core. Priority 0 and 1 are used for reset and NMI respectively.
Priority 2 and 3 are reserved. Priority 4-15 are used for interrupt
sources coming from outside the core.Required properties:
- compatible: Should be “ti,c64x+core-pic”;
- #interrupt-cells: <1>
Interrupt Specifier Definition
Single cell specifying the core interrupt priority level (4-15) where
4 is highest priority and 15 is lowest priority.Example
core_pic: interrupt-controller@0 {
interrupt-controller;
#interrupt-cells = <1>;
compatible = “ti,c64x+core-pic”;
};
C64x+ Megamodule Interrupt Controller
The megamodule PIC consists of four interrupt mupliplexers each of which
combine up to 32 interrupt inputs into a single interrupt output which
may be cascaded into the core interrupt controller. The megamodule PIC
has a total of 12 outputs cascading into the core interrupt controller.
One for each core interrupt priority level. In addition to the combined
interrupt sources, individual megamodule interrupts may be cascaded to
the core interrupt controller. When an individual interrupt is cascaded,
it is no longer handled through a megamodule interrupt combiner and is
considered to have the core interrupt controller as the parent.Required properties:
- compatible: “ti,c64x+megamod-pic”
- interrupt-controller
- #interrupt-cells: <1>
- reg: base address and size of register area
- interrupt-parent: must be core interrupt controller
- interrupts: This should have four cells; one for each interrupt combiner.
The cells contain the core priority interrupt to which the corresponding combiner output is wired.
Optional properties:
- ti,c64x+megamod-pic-mux: Array of 12 cells correspnding to the 12 core
priority interrupts. The first cell corresponds to core priority 4 and the last cell corresponds to core priority 15. The value of each cell is the megamodule interrupt source which is MUXed to the core interrupt corresponding to the cell position. Allowed values are 4 - 127. Mapping for interrupts 0 - 3 (combined interrupt sources) are ignored.
Interrupt Specifier Definition
Single cell specifying the megamodule interrupt source (4-127). Note that
interrupts mapped directly to the core with “ti,c64x+megamod-pic-mux” will
use the core interrupt controller as their parent and the specifier will
be the core priority level, not the megamodule interrupt number.Examples
megamod_pic: interrupt-controller@1800000 {
compatible = “ti,c64x+megamod-pic”;
interrupt-controller;
#interrupt-cells = <1>;
reg = <0x1800000 0x1000>;
interrupt-parent = <&core_pic>;
interrupts = < 12 13 14 15 >;
};This is a minimal example where all individual interrupts go through a
combiner. Combiner-0 is mapped to core interrupt 12, combiner-1 is mapped
to interrupt 13, etc.
megamod_pic: interrupt-controller@1800000 {
compatible = “ti,c64x+megamod-pic”;
interrupt-controller;
#interrupt-cells = <1>;
reg = <0x1800000 0x1000>;
interrupt-parent = <&core_pic>;
interrupts = < 12 13 14 15 >;
ti,c64x+megamod-pic-mux = < 0 0 0 0
32 0 0 0
0 0 0 0 >;
};
This the same as the first example except that megamodule interrupt 32 is
mapped directly to core priority interrupt 8. The node using this interrupt
must set the core controller as its interrupt parent and use 8 in the
interrupt specifier value.
