(someone correct me if I'm wrong..., I don't really know too much about this) There'll ony be one instance of the kernel/ip_vs() running. Whether it's parked on one cpu or moves around is the business of the kernel not you. > So, there is no easy way (and it doesn't make any sense) to tell the > kernel to handle each NICs traffic with a particular core. I didn't realise you could have affinity with a NIC till Horms pointed it out. I thought the packets were sent to the routing table, which choose the NIC. I didn't think ip_vs could have any affect on which NIC would be handling the packets.
