heh ;)

I was referring to setting up something little more valid. Like
IO_APIC_reg_01 showing value of 0x00170020 etc. As the gsi computation
actually refers to the number of redirection table entries supported by
the IO-APIC.

Also does the dom0 see all the GSI's/io-apic's that the host sees or is
it going to be just one io-apic? I was just wondering if the reg 01 need
to be same as what the host sees?

Anyways, instead of 0xfd, having sane fake register values will be a
better start.

thanks,
suresh
