Hello,
I am building a linux-based router.
Intel Server Board S3000AH, Core2Quad Q6600.
The CPU has 2x4MB shared cache for 2x2 cores.
I want the irq of the first NIC to round-robin on the first two cores and
the other NIC on the other two, so I can use the shared cache to increase
the throughoutput, but all I was able to achieve is to move the IRQ
between the cores without any round-robin. iqrbalance does the same..
simply chooses one of the CPUs and stick the NIC to it. How can I set it
to round-robin?
