LINUX Receive Side Scaling
Hi,
I am running netperf experiments using intel's 10 GbE NICs. These are multiqueue NICs. On the receive side, what I see is that for a single netperf test, the packets are received by a single NIC queue only (as shown by ethtool -S eth2). Also, a single receive queue interrupts only a single core (as shown by cat /proc/interrupts).
Can someone please tell me whether the packets are being processed by the same core which receives the interrupts, or are the packets distributed to all the cores?
Thank you,
Vish
