description: |+
  ARM SMP cores are often associated with a GIC, providing per processor
  interrupts (PPI), shared processor interrupts (SPI) and software
  generated interrupts (SGI).

  Primary GIC is attached directly to the CPU and typically has PPIs and SGIs.
  Secondary GICs are cascaded into the upward interrupt controller and do not
  have PPIs or SGIs.

    description: |
      The 1st cell is the interrupt type; 0 for SPI interrupts, 1 for PPI
      interrupts.

      The 2nd cell contains the interrupt number for the interrupt type.
      SPI interrupts are in the range [0-987].  PPI interrupts are in the
      range [0-15].

      The 3rd cell is the flags, encoded as follows:
        bits[3:0] trigger type and level flags.
          1 = low-to-high edge triggered
          2 = high-to-low edge triggered (invalid for SPIs)
          4 = active high level-sensitive
          8 = active low level-sensitive (invalid for SPIs).
        bits[15:8] PPI interrupt cpu mask.  Each bit corresponds to each of
        the 8 possible cpus attached to the GIC.  A bit set to '1' indicated
        the interrupt is wired to that CPU.  Only valid for PPI interrupts.
        Also note that the configurability of PPI interrupts is IMPLEMENTATION
        DEFINED and as such not guaranteed to be present (most SoC available
        in 2014 seem to ignore the setting of this flag and use the hardware
        default value).

  reg:
    description: |
      Specifies base physical address(s) and size of the GIC registers. The
      first region is the GIC distributor register base and size. The 2nd region
      is the GIC cpu interface register base and size.

      For GICv2 with virtualization extensions, additional regions are
      required for specifying the base physical address and size of the VGIC
      registers. The first additional region is the GIC virtual interface
      control register base and size. The 2nd additional region is the GIC
      virtual cpu interface register base and size.

      * GICv2m extension for MSI/MSI-x support (Optional)

      Certain revisions of GIC-400 supports MSI/MSI-x via V2M register frame(s).
      This is enabled by specifying v2m sub-node(s).
