* ARM Nested Vector Interrupt Controller (NVIC)
|
|
|
|
The NVIC provides an interrupt controller that is tightly coupled to
|
|
Cortex-M based processor cores. The NVIC implemented on different SoCs
|
|
vary in the number of interrupts and priority bits per interrupt.
|
|
|
|
Main node required properties:
|
|
|
|
- compatible : should be one of:
|
|
"arm,v6m-nvic"
|
|
"arm,v7m-nvic"
|
|
"arm,v8m-nvic"
|
|
- interrupt-controller : Identifies the node as an interrupt controller
|
|
- #interrupt-cells : Specifies the number of cells needed to encode an
|
|
interrupt source. The type shall be a <u32> and the value shall be 2.
|
|
|
|
The 1st cell contains the interrupt number for the interrupt type.
|
|
|
|
The 2nd cell is the priority of the interrupt.
|
|
|
|
- reg : Specifies base physical address(s) and size of the NVIC registers.
|
|
This is at a fixed address (0xe000e100) and size (0xc00).
|
|
|
|
- arm,num-irq-priority-bits: The number of priority bits implemented by the
|
|
given SoC
|
|
|
|
Example:
|
|
|
|
intc: interrupt-controller@e000e100 {
|
|
compatible = "arm,v7m-nvic";
|
|
#interrupt-cells = <2>;
|
|
#address-cells = <1>;
|
|
interrupt-controller;
|
|
reg = <0xe000e100 0xc00>;
|
|
arm,num-irq-priority-bits = <4>;
|
|
};
