During a hard reset all internal registers, state machines and caches of the CPU are reset.
Furthermore all on−board PCI devices as well as the host bridge are reset.

During a soft reset the CPU is reset, with the exception of the internal caches and state
machines

Interrupt Routing Unit

The FPGA is used for fixed interrupt routing on the blade.

a

All interrupts from PCI devices are routed via the FPGA to the South Bridge. All other
interrupts are routed to the Super I/O device from where they are routed to the South
Bridge.
