 Hi, 

 I would like to know if there is something in linux
(2.4.21) akin to processor set feature available on HP
/SUN . 

 Basically idea is to be able to dedicate a processor 
 to a vertain high priority task with not even the  
 interrupts being allowed to run there.
 
 Regards,
 Vipin

Yes.

I haven't had to do it myself, but search for "process affinity" and 
"interrupt affinity".
