NOTES:
1. SCI_EN must be 1 to enable SCI. SCI_EN must be 0 to enable SMI.
2. SCI can be routed to cause interrupt 9:11 or 20:23 (20:23 only available in APIC mode).
3. GBL_SMI_EN must be 1 to enable SMI.
4. EOS must be written to 1 to re-enable SMI for the next 1.
5. ICH6 must have SMI# fully enabled when ICH6 is also enabled to trap cycles. If SMI# is not enabled in
conjunction with the trap enabling, then hardware behavior is undefined.
6. When a power button override first occurs, the system will transition immediately to S5. The SCI will only
occur after the next wake to S0 if the residual status bit (PRBTNOR_STS) is not cleared prior to setting
SCI_EN.
7. Only GPI[15:0] may generate an SMI# or SCI.
5.14.4.1
PCI Express* SCI
PCI Express ports and the (G)MCH (via DMI) have the ability to cause PME using messages.
When a PME message is received, ICH6 will set the PCI_EXP_STS bit. If the PCI_EXP_EN bit is
also set, the ICH6 can cause an SCI via the GPE1_STS register.
5.14.4.2
PCI Express* Hot-Plug
PCI Express has a Hot-Plug mechanism and is capable of generating a SCI via the GPE1 register. It
is also capable of generating an SMI. However, it is not capable of generating a wake event.
