According to the Mindshare book: PowerPC System Architecture:

"Processor ID Register (PIR)

The PIR is a 32-bit register that can be used by the OS to assign
an ID to the processor.  Aside from any OS-specific usage of the
assigned ID, the processor uses the ID when communicating with
I/O devices."
