Second: The interrupt is registered as "GIC 37", which is a real interrupt on
the Socfpga. I would expect it to be marked as "GPIO 2xx" (or something in that
range). The interrupt from the gpiochip itself isn't registered at all ?!
Hi Stephen,

Did you export the gpio lines and set the edge in sysfs?  Because the
interrupts aren't allocated otherwise.

For instance:

root@socfpga_cyclone5:~# echo 195 > /sys/class/gpio/export
root@socfpga_cyclone5:~# echo rising > /sys/class/gpio/gpio195/edge

Now I can see a pretty nicely named interrupt in /proc/interrupts:

256:          0          0  gpio-dwapb  24  gpiolib
I didn't try that and I think this behaviour is pretty uncommon.
This should be fixed in the driver. I never wrote a gpiochip-driver,
so I don't know what is missing, but maybe just some functioncall ?!
All other drivers I came across have that entry from probing without
any fiddling.

Thanks,
Steffen
