22 interrupt line to the CPU) nowadays this number is just a number.
24 For this reason we need a mechanism to separate controller-local
25 interrupt numbers, called hardware irq's, from Linux IRQ numbers.

218 On some architectures, there may be multiple interrupt controllers
219 involved in delivering an interrupt from the device to the target CPU.
220 Let's look at a typical interrupt delivering path on x86 platforms::
222 Device --> IOAPIC -> Interrupt remapping Controller -> Local APIC -> CPU
224 There are three interrupt controllers involved:
227 2) Interrupt remapping controller
232 interrupt controller and those irq_domains are organized into hierarchy.
240 Interrupt Remapping irq_domain (manage irq_remapping entries)
247 1) irq_domain_alloc_irqs(): allocate IRQ descriptors and interrupt
249 2) irq_domain_free_irqs(): free IRQ descriptors and interrupt controller
251 3) irq_domain_activate_irq(): activate interrupt controller hardware to
252 deliver the interrupt.
253 4) irq_domain_deactivate_irq(): deactivate interrupt controller hardware
254 to stop delivering the interrupt.
267 irq_domain structure is built for each interrupt controller, and an
274 With stacked irq_chip, interrupt controller driver only needs to deal
279 For an interrupt controller driver to support hierarchy irq_domain, it
