So it looks like there's some magic whereby the configuration of the MPIC affects how the PCIe feeds the interrupt in. Is there (or will there be) an erratum, or anything in the manual besides not being documented as external interrupts, about these specific interrupts being tied low in silicon or needing to be active high? -Scott

I do not know what kind of extra commentary you request. IRQ 4,5,6, 11 are internally tie to low by silicon. To use these interrupts for PCIe, they need to set high level sensitive.

I do not think there is (will) an erratum. But I agree the manual needs to document this more clear. thanks. Roy

Sure, my point was more that it didn't say anything there about how to configure EIVPRn[P]. -Scott

I do not think there is any magic. On the contrary, it is the mpic/device tree needs to comply with the hardware setting for the interrupt polarity. > > > IRQ 4,5,6, 11 are internally tie to low by silicon.

If you consider the normal case, the shared irq pulls up, the PCIe interrupt set to low level sensitive.

It depends on the irq pulls up or down by hardware. Roy

The magic is that the PCIe block can generate the interrupt in either polarity depending on the MPIC setting (or perhaps it bases it on sampling the pin status during/after reset, but that seems fragile). > > > IRQ 4,5,6, 11 are internally tie to low by silicon.

Anything odd? The oddity is that active-high works at all for a PCI interrupt, and that not all the PCIe interrupts have the same polarity. -Scott

As I think in general we say these PCIe are 'active high'. The only reason I would think we would NOT do this is if they are shared with some external device that is 'active low'. If so we should comment that somewhere (maybe in the .dts, maybe just in the commit message). - k

Active-low is normal, it's these non-pinned-out "external" interrupts that are pulled low inside the SoC that are weird. -Scott

The boards pulled up the shared IRQs. PCIe specification does not specify 'active low' or 'active high', but for PCI, the INTx is 'active low'. > Active-low is normal, it's these non-pinned-out "external" interrupts > that are pulled low inside the SoC that are weird. I agree here. Do you want me to add something to point out the "weird" in the commit message? Thanks. Roy

P1023 external IRQ[4:6, 11] do not pin out, but the interrupts are shared with PCIe controller. The silicon internally ties the interrupts to L, so change the IRQ[4:6,11] to high level sensitive for PCIe.
