I tried the following patch:

--- io_apic.c.orig      2005-05-11 03:42:40.000000000 -0400

trying "
                        "%d\n", ioapic, apic_id, reg_00.bits.ID);

 
To my surprise, it didn't work, and when I dumped the I/O APIC registers
it turned out that on ES7000 the parallel delivery bit wasn't set!

<7>.... register #00: A4000000
<7>.......    : physical APIC id: A4
<7>.......    : Delivery Type: 0
<7>.......    : LTS          : 0
<7>.... register #01: 00170004
<7>.......     : max redirection entries: 0017
<7>.......     : PRQ implemented: 0
<7>.......     : IO APIC version: 0004

Version number was not 0x11 as James mentioned, it was 4, and I couldn't
find anything documented on the I/O xAPIC versioning.

Looks like the need in the unique id can only be keyed of the local APIC
id, and probably it is a good idea to keep the NO_IOAPIC_CHECK for
subarchs that can override the heuristics?

Thanks,
