So it's 1 per port, not 1 for the switch? There is one physical interrupt signal for these switches. In the switch driver IRQ handler, some registers are inspected to decide what type of event it is. Luiz pasted the enum of possible interrupt types in his mail above. Most of these events are ignored, or are otherwise internal to the switch driver. But in some cases, the interrupt is actually for one of the embedded PHYs in the switch. That's why we make the switch an interrupt-controller. So, in summary: - one interrupt for the switch - the switch is an interrupt-controller - ... and is the interrupt-parent for the phy nodes. The rest is internal details and shouldn't matter, as far as my understanding of device tree bindings goes. Happy to be corrected though. Kind regards, Alvin
