* Hector Martin [off-list ref] [210304 21:40]:
Not all platforms provide the same set of timers/interrupts, and Linux only needs one (plus kvm/guest ones); some platforms are working around this by using dummy fake interrupts. Implementing interrupt-names allows the devicetree to specify an arbitrary set of available interrupts, so the timer code can pick the right one. This also adds the hyp-virt timer/interrupt, which was previously not expressed in the fixed 4-interrupt form.
I like this one too: Reviewed-by: Tony Lindgren <tony@atomide.com> _______________________________________________ linux-arm-kernel mailing list linux-arm-kernel@lists.infradead.org http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-arm-kernel
