PCU – iLB – IO APIC
The IO Advanced Programmable Interrupt Controller (APIC) is used to support line 
interrupts more flexibly than the 8259 PIC. Line interrupts are routed to it from 
multiple sources, including legacy devices, via the interrupt decoder and serial IRQs, or 
they are routed to it from the interrupt router in the iLB. These line based interrupts 
are then used to generate interrupt messages targeting the local APIC in the processor.
