If you compile in PCI-E support you should have more control of the MSI-X, no? I would tie the MSI to a specific processor statically; my past experiences with any form of interupt balancing with network loads has been horrible. cheers, jamal On Mon, 2006-25-12 at 14:54 +0200, Robert Iakobashvili wrote:

it can still be done using the TPR (Thread Priority Register) of the APIC. It's just... not there in Linux (other OSes do use this).Interesting. Have you any specific pointers for doing it (beyond Internet search)? Your input would be very much appreciated. Thank you.
