Existing MANA design assigns IRQ to every CPU, including sibling
hyper-threads. This may cause multiple IRQs to be active simultaneously
in the same core and may reduce the network performance with RSS.
Can you add an IRQ distribution diagram to compare before/after
behavior, similarly to what I did in the other email?

Improve the performance by assigning IRQ to non sibling CPUs in local
NUMA node. The performance improvement we are getting using ntttcp with
following patch is around 15 percent with existing design and approximately
11 percent, when trying to assign one IRQ in each core across NUMA nodes,
if enough cores are present.
How did you measure it? In the other email you said you used perf, can
you show your procedure in details?

alloc_cpumask_var() here and below, because you initialize them by
copying
I have used zalloc here as prev gets initialized after the first hop, before that
it may contain unwanted values, which may impact cpumask_andnot(curr, next, prev).
Regarding curr I will change it to alloc_cpumask_var().
Please let me know if that sounds right.

OK, if you can't increment inside for-loop, I'd switch it to a
while-loop:
                w = cpumask_weight(curr);
                cnt = 0;
Thanks will change it to while loop.

Think what if you're passed with irq_setup(NULL, 0, 0).
That's why I suggested to place this check at the beginning.

Don't hesitate to add even more vertical spacing. It's like: "take a
breath folks, this section is done". :)
Sure will add in next version.
