ExtINT

Signal is a vectored interrupt; vector is supplied by external PIC.

 

 

 

 

 

For example, if an 8259 is used as the external PIC, the source is

 

 

 

 

 

the 8259 INTR output line, and the vector is supplied by the 8259.

*All other values are reserved.

4.3.5Local Interrupt Assignment Entries

These configuration table entries tell what interrupt source is connected to each local interrupt input of each local APIC. Figure 4-8 shows the format of each entry, and Table 4-12 explains each field.
