NOTES:
1. The ability of a processor to send a lowest priority IPI is model specific.
2. For these interrupts, if the trigger mode bit is 1 (Level), the local xAPIC will override the bit set-
ting and issue the interrupt as an edge triggered interrupt.
3. X means the setting is ignored.
4. When using the “lowest priority” delivery mode and the “all excluding self” destination, the IPI
can be redirected back to the issuing APIC, which is essentially the same as the “all including
self” destination mode.
