Hi,
a customer is currently running a networking user app and associated kernel modules with the MCSDK3.01 and Linux L3.10. They have noticed that the Linux networking interrupts for traffic ingressing/egressing eth0 are all handled by CPU CORE0. The customer has tried to change the smp_affinity mask to spread the handling of IRQs across multiple core and load balance the IRQ handling, but that has not worked. The IRQs are still handled by the lowest core in the affinity mask.
Could you let us know how to best load balance the IRQ handling?
Thanks,
