Yep, the cached data differs from what's in the hw reg sometimes: dmesg | grep -i ioapic [ 0.000000] ACPI: IOAPIC (id[0x02] address[0xfec00000] gsi_base[0]) [ 0.000000] IOAPIC[0]: apic_id 2, version 33, address 0xfec00000, GSI 0-23 [ 0.429355] ioapic0 pin9, hardware reg a939, cached data 1a939 [ 0.506249] ioapic0 pin9, hardware reg 1a939, cached data 1a939 [ 0.521547] ACPI: Using IOAPIC for interrupt routing [ 1.313959] ioapic0 pin19, hardware reg a9c1, cached data 1a9c1 [ 1.357875] ioapic0 pin12, hardware reg 93c, cached data 93c [ 1.359204] ioapic0 pin1, hardware reg 931, cached data 931 [ 1.367423] ioapic0 pin8, hardware reg 938, cached data 938 [ 7.560846] ioapic0 pin17, hardware reg a981, cached data 1a981 [ 7.866814] ioapic0 pin18, hardware reg a9a1, cached data 1a9a1 [ 10.141662] ioapic0 pin16, hardware reg a942, cached data 1a942 This would explain the failure because the ahci ioapic pin19 has that discrepancy: [ 1.311476] ahci 0000:00:11.0: version 3.0 [ 1.313374] ahci 0000:00:11.0: AHCI 0001.0200 32 slots 1 ports 3 Gbps 0x1 impl SATA mode [ 1.313556] ahci 0000:00:11.0: flags: 64bit ncq sntf ilck pm led clo pmp pio slum part ccc [ 1.313959] ioapic0 pin19, hardware reg a9c1, cached data 1a9c1 [ 1.317281] scsi host0: ahci Btw, that's 32-bit.
