I like this idea. If something (eg per-CPU TCP timers, if it's turned on) makes a very specific decision about the CPU then it should be fixed. Otherwise a lot of the underlying assumptions for things like RSS just aren't guaranteed to hold. It could also perhaps extend to some abstract pool of CPUs later, if we wanted to do things like one flowing swi per socket or whatnot when we start booting on 1024 core boxes... -a _______________________________________________ freebsd-current@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-current-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
