Hi everybody,

is there any documentation describing interrupt handling for the powerpc 
architecture ? I'm writing a driver for a cascaded interrupt controller and 
the only source of information I found was the code.

I'm particularly interested in information about irq hosts (allocation and 
initialisation, especially the map and unmap callbacks) and irq chaining. 
Different drivers seem to implement cascaded irqs differently (for instance 
arch/powerpc/sysdev/uic.c uses setup_irq to register the cascaded irq 
handler, while arch/powerpc/platforms/82xx/pq2ads-pci-pic.c uses 
set_irq_chained_handler) so I'm a bit lost here.

Best regards,
