From: Santosh Shukla Local interrupts can be extended to include more LVT registers in order to allow additional interrupt sources, like Instruction Based Sampling (IBS). The Extended APIC feature register indicates the number of extended Local Vector Table(LVT) registers in the local APIC. Currently, there are 4 extended LVT registers available which are located at APIC offsets (400h-530h). The EXTLVT feature bit changes the behavior associated with reading and writing an extended LVT register when AVIC is enabled. When the EXTLVT and AVIC are enabled, a write to an extended LVT register changes from a fault style #VMEXIT to a trap style #VMEXIT and a read of an extended LVT register no longer triggers a #VMEXIT [2]. Presence of the EXTLVT feature is indicated via CPUID function 0x8000000A_EDX[27]. More details about the EXTLVT feature can be found at [1].
