Hi, For my Master thesis I'm testing a module for kernel 2.6.21.4-rt12, so I need to use this "old" version of kernel. The kernel is compiled with complete preemption. I'm testing network interface with netperf. When I run a simple test I see that most of the time the CPU execute IRQ-16 (or the one assigned to my eth card) but softirq-net-rx is never triggered. If I try the same test with 2.6.24.7-rt24 most of the work is done by sirq-net-rx. Maybe I made mistakes somewhere in my configuration. Could someone give some hints where I have to investigate? Are there runtime parameters that I can check to see if everything is in order?
