  IRQ affinity on IA64 platforms
  ------------------------------
                             07.01.2002, Erich Focht <efocht@ess.nec.de>
  
  
  By writing to /proc/irq/IRQ#/smp_affinity the interrupt routing can be
  controlled. The behavior on IA64 platforms is slightly different from
  that described in Documentation/IRQ-affinity.txt for i386 systems.
  
  Because of the usage of SAPIC mode and physical destination mode the
  IRQ target is one particular CPU and cannot be a mask of several
  CPUs. Only the first non-zero bit is taken into account.
  
  
  Usage examples:
  
  The target CPU has to be specified as a hexadecimal CPU mask. The
  first non-zero bit is the selected CPU. This format has been kept for
  compatibility reasons with i386.
  
  Set the delivery mode of interrupt 41 to fixed and route the
  interrupts to CPU #3 (logical CPU number) (2^3=0x08):
       echo "8" >/proc/irq/41/smp_affinity
  
  Set the default route for IRQ number 41 to CPU 6 in lowest priority
  delivery mode (redirectable):
       echo "r 40" >/proc/irq/41/smp_affinity
  
  The output of the command
       cat /proc/irq/IRQ#/smp_affinity
  gives the target CPU mask for the specified interrupt vector. If the CPU
  mask is preceded by the character "r", the interrupt is redirectable
  (i.e. lowest priority mode routing is used), otherwise its route is
  fixed.
  
  
  
  Initialization and default behavior:
  
  If the platform features IRQ redirection (info provided by SAL) all
  IO-SAPIC interrupts are initialized with CPU#0 as their default target
  and the routing is the so called "lowest priority mode" (actually
  fixed SAPIC mode with hint). The XTP chipset registers are used as hints
  for the IRQ routing. Currently in Linux XTP registers can have three
  values:
  	- minimal for an idle task,
  	- normal if any other task runs,
  	- maximal if the CPU is going to be switched off.
  The IRQ is routed to the CPU with lowest XTP register value, the
  search begins at the default CPU. Therefore most of the interrupts
  will be handled by CPU #0.
  
  If the platform doesn't feature interrupt redirection IOSAPIC fixed
  routing is used. The target CPUs are distributed in a round robin
  manner. IRQs will be routed only to the selected target CPUs. Check
  with
          cat /proc/interrupts
  
  
  
  Comments:
  
  On large (multi-node) systems it is recommended to route the IRQs to
  the node to which the corresponding device is connected.
  For systems like the NEC AzusA we get IRQ node-affinity for free. This
  is because usually the chipsets on each node redirect the interrupts
  only to their own CPUs (as they cannot see the XTP registers on the
  other nodes).
