Hi,
While the GICv2 device-tree binding document (see [1]) seems to have support for active low level-sensitive PPIs:
The 3rd cell is the flags, encoded as follows:
bits[3:0] trigger type and level flags.
1 = low-to-high edge triggered
2 = high-to-low edge triggered (invalid for SPIs)
4 = active high level-sensitive
8 = active low level-sensitive (invalid for SPIs).
The GICv3 device-tree bindings (see [2]) on the other hand, seem to be lacking the same for active low level-sensitive PPIs:
The 3rd cell is the flags, encoded as follows:
bits[3:0] trigger type and level flags.
1 = edge triggered
4 = level triggered
One of our SoC, supports active low level-sensitive PPIs on GICv3. If I spin-out a patch to address the same in GICv3 bindings,
will that be acceptable, or, is something on similar lines already in-work.
