This patch series adds support for the GPIO interrupt controller found on Amlogic's meson SoC families. Unlike what the name suggests, this controller is not part of the SoC GPIO subsystem. It is a separate controller from which can watch almost all pads of the SoC and generate and interrupt from it. Some pins, which are not part of the public datasheet, don't seem to have this capability though. Hardware wise, the controller is a 256 to 8 router with filtering block to select edge or level input and the polarity of the signal. As there we can't setup the filtring to generate a signal on both the high and low polarity, there is no easy way to support IRQ_TYPE_EDGE_BOTH at the moment The number of interrupt line routed to the controller depends on the SoC, and essentially the number of GPIO available on the SoC. This series has been tested on Amlogic S905-P200 board with the front panel power button. This work is derived from the previous work of Carlo Caione [1].
[...] So we have two competing series, all based on the same stuff. I must say this is rather disappointing that people can't manage to collaborate and work towards a common goal. I'm going to review the irqchip part, because I've done that on Heiner's series as well, but that's where I'm going to stop. Heiner, Jerome: please sort this out between yourselves *BEFORE* sending any other patch series. This is wasting everybody's time, both yours and mine (and frankly, this a rather rare commodity these days). Thanks, M. -- Jazz is not dead. It just smells funny...
