Small question. Does this IOMMU also support irq remapping?
Intel is starting to merge support for their iommu that supports irq remapping and I am curious what the implications are going to be to support both of these iommus?
Assuming their is irq remapping support it isn't tied to x2apic support in the cpus is it?
