Hi Scott,
I meant external IRQ.
I am actually trying to use irq 4 interrupt.
I've added the above in device tree, and in kernel code I do:
np = of_find_node_by_name(NULL,"hello");
if (np == NULL)
{
printk("Error node not found\n");
}
printk("Node np = 0x%0x\n",np); <-- Node np = 0xdfffe2f0
virq = irq_of_parse_and_map(np,0);
printk(" VIRQ: %d \n" , virq); <-- virq = 0 !!??
if (0 > (error=request_irq(virq, &hello_IRQHandler, IRQF_SHARED,
"hello", &value))) {
printk(KERN_WARNING"hello_IRQHandler: Init: Unable to allocate
IRQ error = %d\n\n", error);
return -1;
<-- request_irq return -22 ....
}
But it fails in request_irq (it return -22).
Also, irq_of_parse_and_map(np,0) returns 0. I think it should have returned 4.

Ran
