Subject: why would irq0 have many many more interrupts than LOC?
Date: Wed, 02 May 2012 14:23:57 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4FA197DD.8030702@genband.com> (raw)
I have an x86_64 2.6.27 kernel running on a Sandy Bridge machine.
/proc/interrupts currently shows 75573114 counts for irq0 on cpu 0 and
no counts on other cpus and between 2973587 and 4185923 counts for "LOC"
spread across all cpus including cpu0.
The following are enabled.
CONFIG_GENERIC_HARDIRQS=y
CONFIG_PREEMPT_SOFTIRQS=y
CONFIG_PREEMPT_HARDIRQS=y
CONFIG_HIGH_RES_TIMERS=y
CONFIG_HZ_1000=y
CONFIG_HZ=1000
It almost seems like it's taking a timer interrupt on cpu0 for every
local timer interrupt on every cpu. Surely that's not design intent?
Any ideas on how to fix this?
Chris
