Table 2-29 lists the combined set of ordering rules in the outbound path of the Intel® 6702PXH
64-bit PCI Hub.

NOTE: The Intel® 6702PXH 64-bit PCI Hub supports two outbound completion required requests per PCI
segment. Outbound delayed/split read requests can pass each other when issued on the PCI bus.

I/OxAPIC Interrupt Controller (Functions 1)
The Intel® 6702PXH 64-bit PCI Hub contains one I/OxAPIC controller, which reside on the
primary bus. The intended use of the controller on the Intel® 6702PXH 64-bit PCI Hub is to have
the interrupts from PCI bus A connected to the interrupt controller on function 1.
2.16.1
Interrupt Support
The Intel® 6702PXH 64-bit PCI Hub behaves as a normal peer-to-peer bridge and can handle PCI
IRQ# and PCI MSI system interrupt mechanisms.
2.16.1.1
PCI IRQ# Interrupts
The Intel® 6702PXH 64-bit PCI Hub can manage 16 pin interrupts, and has 16 pins (PAIRQ#) for
these interrupts. Interrupts delivered by a pin can be either in level or edge mode, and may be either
active high or active low. Since this I/OxAPIC is connected to a PCI bus, its most likely
configuration will be as active low level, which will match the PCI pin polarity and functionality.
Each pin is collected by the Intel® 6702PXH 64-bit PCI Hub, synchronized into the PCI clock
domain, and scheduled for delivery if it is unmasked.
The Intel® 6702PXH 64-bit PCI Hub only has 16 interrupt pins per PCI segment. These pins are
connected to I/OxAPIC redirection table entries 15 – 0 (of 24 entries). The standard hot plug
controller is hard-wired to redirection table entry 23 of the I/OxAPIC. All other interrupts are only
addressable through the PCI virtual wire mechanism. If PAIRQ[12:11]# are unused, they must be
pulled up to VCC33 to ensure the boot interrupt works correctly. All other IRQ pins are terminated
on-die.
