PI support is bit 59 in the capability register which is exposed through sysfs at /sys/class/iommu/dmar*/intel-iommu/cap so you could do something like: # for i in $(find /sys/class/iommu/dmar* -type l); do echo -n "$i: "; echo $(( ( 0x$(cat $i/intel-iommu/cap) >> 59 ) & 1 )); done I think the relationship between APICv and PI goes the other direction, if you have PI, you probably have APICv. Having APICv implies nothing about having PI.
