3.2.3 Interrupt Features
The interrupt implementation supports the following features:
• Interrupt Controller interrupt disable and enable
• Functions required by the Linux interrupt architecture as defined in the standard
ARM interrupt source code (mainly the <ltib_dir>/rpm/BUILD/linux/arch/arm/
kernel/irq.c file)
3.2.4 Interrupt Source Code Structure
The interrupt module is implemented in the following file (located in the directory
<ltib_dir>/rpm/BUILD/linux/arch/arm/plat-mxc):
irq.c (If CONFIG_MXC_TZIC is not selected)
tzic.c (If CONFIG_MXC_TZIC is selected)
gic.c (If CONFIG_ARM_GIC is selected)
There are also two header files (located in the include directory specified at the beginning
of this chapter):
hardware.h
irqs.h
The following table lists the source files for interrupts.

hardware.h Register descriptions
irqs.h Declarations for number of interrupts supported
gic.c Actual interrupt functions for GIC modules
3.2.5 Interrupt Programming Interface
The machine-specific interrupt implementation exports a single function.
This function initializes the Interrupt Controller hardware and registers functions for
interrupt enable and disable from each interrupt source.
This is done with the global structure irq_desc of type struct irqdesc. After the
initialization, the interrupt can be used by the drivers through the request_irq() function to
register device-specific interrupt handlers.
