9.12.2 Door Bell Registers
The PCI bridge contains an inbound and an outbound door bell register. The registers are 32-bit. The
inbound door bell allows a remote processor to set a bit in the register from the PCI bus. This, in turn,
causes the PCI bridge to generate an interrupt to the local processor. The local processor can write to the
outbound register which causes the outbound interrupt signal INTA to assert thus interrupting the remote
processor on the PCI bus.

9.12.2.1 Outbound Doorbell Register (ODR)

ODR, described in Figure 9-62 and Table9-48, is accessible from the PCI bus and the 60x bus in both host
and agent modes.
