Special Notes on IRQ14 and IRQ15
IRQ14 and IRQ15 are special interrupts, used by the SATA controller when it is not
running in Native IDE mode. If in a legacy mode, IRQ14 and IRQ15 are not accepted
from the serial stream, and instead come from these controllers. If the controllers are
in Native mode, these interrupts are used by the interrupt controller.
Data Frame Format
Table 30-30 shows the format of the data frames for the associated interrupts. For the
legacy (PCI) interrupts (A–D), the output from the IICH is ANDed with the legacy (PCI)
input signal. This way, the interrupt can be signaled via both the legacy (PCI) interrupt
input signal and via the SERIRQ signal (they are shared).

Comment
Ignored. IRQ0 can only be generated via the internal 8524.
Before port 60h latch
Causes SMI# if low. Sets bit 15 in the SMI_STS register.
Ignored. IRQ8# can only be generated internally.
Before port 60h latch
Ignored. IRQ13 can only be generated from FERR#.
