Hello,
It seems that IRQ handling is somehow different between i386 and x86_64.
In my Dell PowerEdge 1950 is it possible to enable interrupts spreading
over all CPUs. This a single CPU, four CORE system (Quad-Core E5335 Xeon)
so I think that interrupts migration may be useful. Unfortunately, it
works only with 32-bit kernel. Booting it with x86_64 leads to situation,
when all interrupts goes only to the first cpu matching a smp_affinity
mask.
arguably that is the most efficient behavior... round robin of
interrupts is the worst possible case in terms of performance
are you using irqbalance ? (www.irqbalance.org)
