So this is definitely a bug on the DT core. b) I don't see why of_irq_to_resource() should discard the type/level flags when filling the IORESOURCE_IRQ if it was specified on the DT. c) We will have to change all drivers that expect to get the IRQ type flags from a IORESOURCE_IRQ struct resource. Thanks a lot and best regards, Javier
