+Interrupt support
+=================
+Some FME and AFU private features are able to generate interrupts. As mentioned
+above, users could call ioctl (DFL_FPGA_*_GET_IRQ_NUM) to know whether or how
+many interrupts are supported for this private feature. Drivers also implement
+an eventfd based interrupt handling mechanism for users to get notified when
+interrupt happens. Users could set eventfds to driver via
+ioctl (DFL_FPGA_*_SET_IRQ), and then poll/select on these eventfds waiting for
+notification.

 Add new FIUs support
 ====================
 It's possible that developers made some new function blocks (FIUs) under this
