+SMP IRQ affinity
/proc/irq/IRQ#/smp_affinity specifies which target CPUs are permitted
for a given IRQ source. It's a bitmask of allowed CPUs. It's not allowed
to turn off all CPUs, and if an IRQ controller does not support IRQ
affinity then the value will not change from the default 0xffffffff.
+/proc/irq/default_smp_affinity specifies default affinity mask that applies
+to all non-active IRQs. Once IRQ is allocated/activated its affinity bitmask
+will be set to the default mask. It can then be changed as described above.
+Default mask is 0xffffffff.
+
Here is an example of restricting IRQ44 (eth1) to CPU0-3 then restricting
-the IRQ to CPU4-7 (this is an 8-CPU SMP box):
+it to CPU4-7 (this is an 8-CPU SMP box):
+[root@moon 44]# cd /proc/irq/44
[root@moon 44]# cat smp_affinity
ffffffff
+
[root@moon 44]# echo 0f > smp_affinity
[root@moon 44]# cat smp_affinity

+As can be seen from the line above IRQ44 was delivered only to the first four
+processors (0-3).
+Now lets restrict that IRQ to CPU(4-7).

+This time around IRQ44 was delivered only to the last four processors.
+i.e counters for the CPU0-3 did not change.
Of some interest is the introduction of the /proc/irq directory to 2.4.
It could be used to set IRQ to CPU affinity, this means that you can "hook" an
IRQ to only one CPU, or to exclude a CPU of handling IRQs. The contents of the
-irq subdir is one subdir for each IRQ, and one file; prof_cpu_mask
+irq subdir is one subdir for each IRQ, and two files; default_smp_affinity and
+prof_cpu_mask.
For example
> ls /proc/irq/
0 10 12 14 16 18 2 4 6 8 prof_cpu_mask
- 1 11 13 15 17 19 3 5 7 9
+ 1 11 13 15 17 19 3 5 7 9 default_smp_affinity
> ls /proc/irq/0/
smp_affinity
-The contents of the prof_cpu_mask file and each smp_affinity file for each IRQ
-is the same by default:
+smp_affinity is a bitmask, in which you can specify which CPUs can handle the
+IRQ, you can set it by doing:
- > cat /proc/irq/0/smp_affinity
- ffffffff
+ > echo 1 > /proc/irq/10/smp_affinity
+
+This means that only the first CPU will handle the IRQ, but you can also echo
+5 which means that only the first and fourth CPU can handle the IRQ.
-It's a bitmask, in which you can specify which CPUs can handle the IRQ, you can
-set it by doing:
+The contents of each smp_affinity file is the same by default:
+
+ > cat /proc/irq/0/smp_affinity
+ ffffffff
- > echo 1 > /proc/irq/prof_cpu_mask
+The default_smp_affinity mask applies to all non-active IRQs, which are the
+IRQs which have not yet been allocated/activated, and hence which lack a
+/proc/irq/[0-9]* directory.
-This means that only the first CPU will handle the IRQ, but you can also echo 5
-which means that only the first and fourth CPU can handle the IRQ.
+prof_cpu_mask specifies which CPUs are to be profiled by the system wide
+profiler. Default value is ffffffff (all cpus).
The way IRQs are routed is handled by the IO-APIC, and it's Round Robin
between all the CPUs which are allowed to handle it. As usual the kernel has
