This doesn't seem right. You've now overridden the xintc_irqc pointer,
so I don't know how you can still process interrupts once you've
discovered a secondary interrupt controller. You've also allocated a
second root_domain, changed the default domain to point to the secondary
controller...

Have you tested this code? Or am I missing something obvious?

Yes it works. I'll try to explain the platform setup a bit.
Perhaps that will make it clear about what I'm trying to do.

UART IRQ -> AXI INTC -> MIPS internal INTC -> CPU

MIPS Internal Interrupt controller in drivers/irqchip/irq-mips-cpu.c
uses irq_domain_add_legacy while AXI Intc uses irq_domain_add_linear

My aim was to set up a chained irq handler with least disturbance.

Hence the above code.

Your concerns are valid. The code is working because read/writes rely
on the static xintc_irqc in the file.
And the second root domain is also not breaking the platform because
the irq-mips-cpu.c uses irq_domain_add_legacy and doesn't use
irq_set_default_host.

# cat /proc/interrupts
            CPU0
   7:      43493      MIPS   7  timer
   8:         83  Xilinx INTC   1-level     eth0
   9:        417  Xilinx INTC   0-level     serial
  10:         15  Xilinx INTC   4-level     10a00000.i2c
ERR:          0
#

Given the above concerns. How about doing things this way?

        if (parent) {
                irq = irq_of_parse_and_map(intc, 0);
                if (irq)
                        irq_set_chained_handler_and_data(irq,
                                                         xil_intc_irq_handler,
                                                         irqc);

        } else
                irq_set_default_host(root_domain);

default host is only set if no parent exists.
And the irqc pointer is passed as the data.

But that still doesn't address the case I had in mind, which is when you
have *two* AXI-intc, one cascaded into the other. Is that something that
could be built? You should at least make sure that there is a big fat
warning if you don't want to support that case, because that will be
hell to debug.

Oo. I didn't think of that one. tbh, I'm not sure if that is currently supported
because this driver came out of arch/microblaze. And it didn't have any code 
that
looked supportive of chained interrupt handling.

'Technically', it should be possible to synthesize two daisy chained axi 
interrupt
controllers on an FPGA. But I don't see it being supported before.

A warning would be nice. Any suggestions on the most suitable way?
