Question: How to distribute the interrupts over multiple cores?

[Lenky Gao]

Hi everyone,

I faced the same problem as this URL:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/13641440/unable-to-distrubute-the-interrupts-over-multiple-cores

The question have been closed with no answer. :(

My machine have 2x Xeon E5504 processors and running vanilla kernel
3.6.11 in CentOS 6.0.

Could anyone give me some tips?
