Subject: generic IO-APIC question
Date: Thu, 18 Jul 2002 11:50:58 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <3D370E11.2090102@cisco.com> (raw)

Can someone please explain to me or refer me to a website or book or 
other document which explains the differences among the terms "APIC", 
"IO-APIC", and "local APIC"?  I'm relatively new to Intel x86 hardware 
as I am transitioning over from the MIPS world.  I have searched around 
and found some basic info, but it is just enough information to get 
confusing.  What would be really nice would be a nice book discussing 
this topic in detail, as opposed to a few data sheets and/or the 
occasional website that has only a brief paragraph.  Thanks...
