title: Wakeup Mailbox for Intel processors
description: |
The Wakeup Mailbox provides a mechanism for the operating system to wake up
secondary CPUs on Intel processors. It is an alternative to the INIT-!INIT-
SIPI sequence used on most x86 systems.
The structure and operation of the mailbox is described in the Multiprocessor
Wakeup Structure of the ACPI specification version 6.6 section 5.2.12.19 [1].
The implementation of the mailbox in platform firmware is described in the
Intel TDX Virtual Firmware Design Guide section 4.3.5 [2].

Implementation Notes
- This generated page is the file-by-file coverage layer; curated subsystem chapters should link here when they synthesize a multi-file control flow.
- Core OS pages should be promoted from atlas-only to deep-reviewed when they explain data structures, invariants, locking, lifecycle, and C implementation snippets.
- Driver-family pages are intentionally pattern-oriented unless they are part of the selected PCIe/NVMe representative device path.
