GPIO IRQ dts bindings for MPC85xx and QorIQ

Hi,

DTS bindings document for mpc8xxx GPIOs implies that to use GPIO as IRQ one should specify GPIO controller node and GPIO number in device tree node, like this:

    funkyfpga@0 {
        compatible = "funky-fpga";
        ...
        interrupts = <9 2>;
        interrupt-parent = <&gpio2>;
    };

I suppose the intention here is to do the following in driver code:

int irq;
struct device node *np;

np = of_find_compatible_node((NULL, NULL, "funky-fpga"); irq = irq_of_parse_and_map(np, 0); request_irq(irq, ...);

However this doesn't work as expected. The resulting virq is connected to real interrupt controller, mpic, and not to GPIO controller. As a result, interrupt handler is never invoked.

This is what /proc/interrupts shows:

20: 0 OpenPIC Edge funky-fpga

On the other hand, when using

#define FPGA_IRQ_GPIO 169

request_gpio(FPGA_IRQ_GPIO);
gpio_direction_input(FPGA_IRQ_GPIO);
irq = gpio_to_irq(FPGA_IRQ_GPIO);
request_irq(irq, ...);

the connection to GPIO controller is created properly, /proc/interrupts shows

20: 0 mpc8xxx_gpio Edge funky-fpga

The drawback of this approach is that GPIO IRQ cannot be naturally specified in device tree by GPIO controller number and GPIO pin number.

So what is the correct way to refer to 85XX GPIO IRQs in driver code ?

Thanks.

Felix.
