Subject: Which CPU do timers run on?
Date: Sun, 09 Sep 2001 15:46:00 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <3B9BD508.1050200@interactivesi.com> (raw)

When I create a timer (init_timer(), etc) on an SMP system, will the timer 
always run on one CPU, or can it run on any CPU?  If I disabled interrupts on 
only one CPU, will that disable the timer completely?
