interrupt forwarding

$

Can a processor  forward an interrupt that it received but did not service to another processor for

servicing?

 

The chapter on APIC under ISSUING INTERPROCESSOR INTERRUPTS section in the intel manual mentions that "

The ICR can be used for the following functions: ......To allow a processor to forward an interrupt that it received but did not service to another processor for servicing" .

 

Does this mean that forwarding is possible via configuring ICR in Local APIC by system software?

 

Thanks
