The PLIC connects all external interrupts in the system to all hart contexts in the system, via the external interrupt source in each hart. A hart context is a privilege mode in a hardware execution thread. For example, in an 4 core system with 2-way SMT, you have 8 harts and probably at least two privilege modes per hart; machine mode and supervisor mode. Each interrupt can be enabled on per-context basis. Any context can claim a pending enabled interrupt and then release it once it has been handled. Each interrupt has a configurable priority. Higher priority interrupts are serviced first. Each context can specify a priority threshold. Interrupts with priority below this threshold will not cause the PLIC to raise its interrupt line leading to the context. While the PLIC supports both edge-triggered and level-triggered interrupts, interrupt handlers are oblivious to this distinction and therefore it is not specified in the PLIC device-tree binding. While the RISC-V ISA doesn't specify a memory layout for the PLIC, the "sifive,plic-1.0.0" device is a concrete implementation of the PLIC that contains a specific memory layout, which is documented in chapter 8 of the SiFive U5 Coreplex Series Manual . maintainers: - Sagar Kadam - Paul Walmsley - Palmer Dabbelt properties: compatible: items: - const: sifive,fu540-c000-plic - const: sifive,plic-1.0.0 reg: maxItems: 1 '#address-cells': const: 0 '#interrupt-cells': const: 1 interrupt-controller: true interrupts-extended: minItems: 1 description: Specifies which contexts are connected to the PLIC, with "-1" specifying that a context is not present.
