Specifically, for IRS/ITS frames then - what the current schema does is correct, namely, it does _not_ spell out whether the IRS/ITS config frame is NS/S/Realm/Root interrupt domain, that's information that the client implicitly assumes. Are we OK with this approach ? This would leave open the possibility of having a DT per security-state. If in the DT schema I define eg reg -> "IRS NS config frame" by construction the binding can't be used for anything else. Please let me know if we are in agreement on this matter.
This would break the QEMU virt board -> EL3 guest firmware -> EL1 Linux flow. We need a binding which lets us optionally specify "oh by the way here is where the other non-NS frames are". I don't have a strong view on the specific syntax. -- PMM
