Subject: NIC interrupt assignments under UltraSPARC-T1
Date: Wed, 13 Sep 2006 17:47:27 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4508A69F.8060102@hp.com> (raw)

 From time to time I "play" with netperf on different systems.  I happen 
to have occasion to play with a T2000.  Under Solaris 10 I am able to 
coerce the interrupts of the different core GbEs to be on different 
cores rather than strands of the same core.

Under a 2.6.15 kernel (Ubuntu Dapper) it would appear that the old 
standby of "echo affinity mask to the IRQ" doesn't "work" - no matter 
how I change the mask for a NIC, running a netperf TCP_RR test seems to 
show the interrupts happening on the same strand.

Is it indeed not possible to alter the interrupt assignments or have I 
(as I'm wont to do) missed something quasi-obvious?

thanks,

rick jones
