2. but on intel cpu xeon E5-2600 family which support x2apic, one NIC irq only on CPU0 whatever i set the smp_affinfiy like as "aa"; "55"; "ff".
My OS is CentOS 6.2 x32 ，i test 4 cpus。 the result is which only support apic can share one irq to all cpus，which support x2apic only make the irq to one cpu。
