Thanks for inputs. In my case the mapping consists to map an EXTI line
with a GIC irq line which could be done using interrupt-map (avoiding
to parse it in my driver).
The problem is that 'interrupt-map' defines an interrupt mapping
between an input and an output, and that mentioning the GIC in such a
table will only result in your EXTI to be bypassed.
'interrupt-map' really is a dispatch table for targeting an interrupt
controller (or multiple controllers, even), but really isn't the
correct tool to carry configuration informations to an interrupt
controller driver.
But for each EXTI/GIC association I would
like also to describe the EXTI_TYPE (which actually describe the well
irqchip to use inside my exti driver) . This property is not generic
and so I assume I can't use a generic binding such "interrupt-map".
If the solution consists to use a common binding (i.e. interrupt-map)
plus a conversion table in exti driver to affect the well irq_chip to
the well EXTI line then we could envisage to keep the whole mapping
inside the driver (even if it's not the best solution).
A possible solution would be to have:
- A set of standard 'interrupts' properties describing the output
signals
- A set of properties describing the input to output mapping (if
relevant) and additional configuration information that for the
interrupt controller driver.
