Hi Marc, Aside of this - there's been serious rework of ARC intc / timers code spurred by some of your comments for this irqchip driver. - We now probe timers via DT (so timer irq comes off of DT as well) - We have now switched to linear irq domain (vs. legacy) IMHO a bunch of ugliness / non-desirability remains (there's likely more) - calling irq_set_default_host() - calling irq_create_mapping with NULL for IPIs I really want to do things in better way - make it more modern ... hence would request you to please take a look at my latest series (I can post the patches here if that helps - although it felt I was spamming you and you got pissed off or something and were not responding of late :-) git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vgupta/arc.git #for-next Pray tell me, what is not right and I'm all up for fixing it Thx, -Vineet
