Subject: Re: [RFC PATCH 1/2] irqchip: ti-tsir: Add support for Timesync
Interrupt Router
Hello Thomas,
Thank you for the reply, I will address your comments to modify license
identifier, comments, helper function for offset calculation. I have
prioritized explaining Timesync interrupt router's functionality below.

Timesync INTR can be used to map input sources with the corresponding
output, so that we can configure specific functionality for the device
that is using this output sources either as an interrupt source or to
synchronize the time.
To implement above Timesync INTR's functionality, I have implemented
ts_intr_irq_domain_alloc() and ts_intr_irq_domain_free() ops which are
sufficient. Let me know if they are fine.

No it is connected, it is being used to configure the output for
Timesync INTR as mentioned above.
As seen in the diagram, Timesync INTR has multiple output interfaces and
we can configure those to map them with the corresponding input as
required by peripherals which receives the signal. In context of this
series, CPTS module is utilizing the output signal of cpts_genf as
Hardware timestamp push event to generate timestamps at 1 seconds.
Let me know if you need more details regarding any of the above points
that I have mentioned.
Regards,
Chintan.
