LPC Serial DMA/Master Request Inputs: LDRQ[1:0]# are used to
request DMA or bus master access. These signals are typically connected
I to external Super I/O device. An internal pull-up resistor is provided on
these signals.
LDRQ1# may optionally be used as GPIO.

Serial Interrupt Request: This pin implements the serial interrupt
protocol.
PCI Interrupt Requests: In non-APIC mode the PIRQx# signals can be
routed to interrupts 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 9, 10, 11, 12, 14 or 15 as described in
the Interrupt Steering section. Each PIRQx# line has a separate Route
Control register.
In APIC mode, these signals are connected to the internal I/O APIC in the
following fashion: PIRQA# is connected to IRQ16, PIRQB# to IRQ17,
PIRQC# to IRQ18, and PIRQD# to IRQ19. This frees the legacy
interrupts.
PCI Interrupt Requests: In non-APIC mode the PIRQx# signals can be
routed to interrupts 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 9, 10, 11, 12, 14 or 15 as described in
the Interrupt Steering section. Each PIRQx# line has a separate Route
Control register.
In APIC mode, these signals are connected to the internal I/O APIC in the
following fashion: PIRQE# is connected to IRQ20, PIRQF# to IRQ21,
PIRQG# to IRQ22, and PIRQH# to IRQ23. This frees the legacy
interrupts. If not needed for interrupts, these signals can be used as
GPIO.
IDE Interrupt Request: This interrupt input is connected to the IDE
drive.
