3.2 System Memory Cacheability and Shareability

The cacheability and shareability of the physical memory space are defined in Table 3-1. The
address space reserved for the local APIC is used by each processor to access its own local APIC.
The address space reserved for the I/O APIC must be shareable by all processors to permit dynamic
reconfiguration.
