Check out Documentation/IRQ-affinity.txt. You can bind hardware interrupts to any CPU (or arbitrary group of CPUs).

IRQ handling in SMP environment, kernel 2.4.3
Hi I am running a Linux machine with a 1GB Ethernet card which takes a huge amount of packets, which results in many HW interrupts. is it possible to make sure that only CPU #1 handles all the hardware interrupts generated by the NIC ? or even all the hardware interrupts in the systems if its too much to ask to filter IRQ based on origin ? thanks Hilik Stein - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
