hi i have a SMP with 2x duo-core Opteron processors, and i have an ethernet card (eth0). i want to balance the interrupts generated by the card to all 4 processors. i can do this by writing to smp_affinity, but on another machine it get's done by "default", without doing anything.
is this irq balancing a feature in the chipset, or driver, or kernel ? i got the idea of the smp_affinity stuff, and i've set it to "f", but nothing happens, i mean i see only one CPU getting the interrupts. i'm using kernel 2.6.18, but tried with 2.6.19, too. thanks. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
