Generic interrupt chip instance for a flow type
struct irq_chip_type { struct irq_chip chip; struct irq_chip_regs regs; irq_flow_handler_t handler; u32 type; u32 mask_cache_priv; u32 * mask_cache; };
chip
The real interrupt chip which provides the callbacks
regs
Register offsets for this chip
handler
Flow handler associated with this chip
type
Chip can handle these flow types
mask_cache_priv
Cached mask register private to the chip type
mask_cache
Pointer to cached mask register
A irq_generic_chip can have several instances of irq_chip_type when it requires different functions and register offsets for different flow types.
