irq

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 361 bytes --]

Hello,

I am trying to register a function writh IRQ :

static irqreturn_t uart_test (int irq , void *dev_id)
{
    printk("/!\\ Interruption : tx_empty\n");
       return IRQ_HANDLED;
}

    req=request_irq(0x18,uart_test,NULL,"uart_test",NULL);
    printk("Initialisation IRQ UART : %d \n", req);

When I boot linux ppc, the req value is -38.
What is wrong ?

Re: irq

[Daniele Bosi]

Try to set some flag into the third parameter of the request_irq()
function like:

SA_SHIRQ                Interrupt is shared

SA_INTERRUPT            Disable local interrupts while processing

SA_SAMPLE_RANDOM        The interrupt can be used for entropy

otherwise try to use the function install_irq_handler()


bye Daniele

The failure referes to setup_irq :
desc->chip == &no_irq_chip is true

What is irq_desc and how can I initialize it ?


setup_irq(unsigned int irq, struct irqaction *new)
{
    struct irq_desc *desc = irq_desc + irq;
    struct irqaction *old, **p;
    const char *old_name = NULL;
    unsigned long flags;
    int shared = 0;

    if (irq >= NR_IRQS)
        return -EINVAL;

    printk("desc\n");
    if (desc->chip == &no_irq_chip)
        return -ENOSYS;
    printk("desc2\n");

Re: irq

Hi,

this seems to be the same problem I had, when registering an irq with UIO.

I did use irq_create_mapping, to initialize this struct. However I
have no idea if this was right. It seemed to work at first, but I'm
encountering problems now, however I don't know if they come from the
kernel, or UIO interrupt handler. I did this for some test, but irqs
are something you want to be sure they work correctly.

So maybee someone could clarify this as we already raise this issue.

What processor are you using Sebastien? My one is a 405EP

Re: irq

[Sébastien Chrétien]

Ok I will try irq_create_mapping tomorrow.
When have I to use this function ?
I am using a MPC7448.

You always need to create a mapping (though doing it with
irq_of_parse_and_map is preferred).  request_irq() takes virtual IRQ
numbers, not hardware IRQ numbers.

Re: irq

[Sébastien Chrétien]

irq_of_parse_and_map is equivalent to ioremap in the MMU case ?

It's more analogous to of_iomap().

On the powerpc architecture, we use virtualized IRQ numbers in order to
deal with the wide range of interrupt controllers around and multiple
of them cascaded.

The base function to "map" a physical interrupt to a virtual interrupt
is irq_create_mapping(). It takes an irq_host argument which represent
the IRQ "domain" (typically irq controller) off which the interrupt you
are trying to map hangs.

If you pass NULL, it will use the "default" controller, which doesn't
always exist, it depends on the platform. Usually, platforms set that
to the toplevel PIC.

However, normally, that function shouldn't be used directly. Instead,
you should create a representation of your device in the device-tree
along with the appropriate interrupt mapping, and then use the
irq_of_parse_and_map() function to obtain a mapped virtual irq based
on the device-tree information. This will take care of finding the
right irq_host but will also properly setup the polarity of the
interrupt etc...

Now, as to how you should represent the interrupt in the device-tree,
this should be explained in Documentation/booting-without-of.txt

Cheers,
Ben.

I read the booting_without_of.txt document and the Interrupt Mapping
docucument from http://playground.sun.com/1275. But I don't understand all
parameters. Can somebody help me to create my device tree about interrupt
part ?

I have an interrupt controller at the adresse 0x20006000. The irq_id range
is 1 to 63.
I would like to try UART interrupt, which have ids : 0x18 (tranmission fifo
empty,
0x19 (reception fifo full), 0x1a (reception error), 0x1b (break emission).
What other informations are needed ?


Nothing is cascaded.

Thanks

I try to write a device tree about irq :

IT_controller: irq_controller@20006000 {
               clock-frequency = <0>;
               interrupt-controller;
            #address-cells = <0>;
               reg = <0x20006000 0x100>;
               compatible = "it";
               device_type = "it";
               big-endian;
           };

           uart@200b1000{
               device_type="uart";
               compatible="uart";
               interrupts = <0x18 0>;
               interrupt-parent=<&IT_controller>;
           };


uart_irq=of_find_node_by_type(NULL, "uart");
    if(uart_irq==NULL)
         printk("%s: No uart node found !\n", __func__);

    virt=irq_of_parse_and_map(uart_irq, 0);
    printk("Virtual irq : %d \n",virt);


When I boot linux, virt=0;

What is wrong ?

You're missing #interrupt-cells, for one.  Also, you need your interrupt
controller driver to register with the IRQ subsystem properly (see other
chained IRQ drivers in the tree).

You should also get rid of device_type, big-endian, and clock-frequency,
and use better compatible names.

irq

[~ ninad]

In linux device driver, is it possible to register an ISR for multiple
irq lines?

Re: irq

Yes, use request_irq with the same handler for each of your irq lines.

You couldn't easily do this at once in a single request_xxx instruction, 
because registration may succeed on some lines, but fail on some others 
ones. The registration status would then be more difficult to manage.
