it is one AMD based system from Sun.
it has two hypertransport chains.
one: 8132 + ck804
one: io4

when 8 sockets are installed, will get
[    0.000000] ACPI: IOAPIC (id[0x00] address[0xfec00000] gsi_base[0])
[    0.000000] IOAPIC[0]: apic_id 0, version 0, address 0xfec00000, GSI 0-23
[    0.000000] ACPI: IOAPIC (id[0x01] address[0xfdefd000] gsi_base[48])
[    0.000000] IOAPIC[1]: apic_id 1, version 0, address 0xfdefd000, GSI 48-54
[    0.000000] ACPI: IOAPIC (id[0x02] address[0xfdefc000] gsi_base[56])
[    0.000000] IOAPIC[2]: apic_id 2, version 0, address 0xfdefc000, GSI 56-62
[    0.000000] ACPI: IOAPIC (id[0x03] address[0xfeaff000] gsi_base[24])
[    0.000000] IOAPIC[3]: apic_id 3, version 0, address 0xfeaff000, GSI 24-47


when 2 sockets are installed, only HT chains is used. will get
[    0.000000] ACPI: IOAPIC (id[0x04] address[0xfec00000] gsi_base[0])
[    0.000000] IOAPIC[0]: apic_id 4, version 0, address 0xfec00000, GSI 0-23
[    0.000000] ACPI: IOAPIC (id[0x05] address[0xfeafd000] gsi_base[48])
[    0.000000] IOAPIC[1]: apic_id 5, version 0, address 0xfeafd000, GSI 48-54
[    0.000000] ACPI: IOAPIC (id[0x06] address[0xfeafc000] gsi_base[56])
[    0.000000] IOAPIC[2]: apic_id 6, version 0, address 0xfeafc000, GSI 56-62

acpi madt ioapic-entries does include gsi_base field.

amd 8131: has 4 gsi
amd 8132: has 7 gsi, but only 3 can be used.

anyway that system is not broken, and it is quite solid.

this patch seems to be a 2.6.29 material.
