Hi Mike,
I am curious if pSeries firmware allows changing affinity masks independently
for multiple MSIs? I.e. in your example, would it be possible to assign IRQ21
and IRQ22 to different CPUs?
Yes. Each interrupt has its own affinity, whether it's an MSI or not,
the affinity is not driven by the address.
Cheers,
Ben.
Hi Ben,
May this patch be accepted? if so I will send out the 3.9 version.
As Michael Ellerman says, he want to see the performance data,
but this depends on the driver.
It is something like MSI, and the driver can use more than 1 MSI.
That is to say, the driver has more interrupt resource to use,
but whether the driver is full use of the resource, is out of
this patch's control.
I test this patch use ipr driver, which add multiple MSI
support by others. and it can work.
Thanks
Mike
