Top half of interrupt is implemented as kernel thread in my embedded linux , this act as a Home Router . It has a wan -interface (eth1 ) and lan-interface t( eth0 ) https://rt.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/RT_PREEMPT_HOWTO http://lwn.net/Articles/302043/ 1. if i flood packets on my wan network interface , i can see cpu utilization of ksoftirq-rx ( kernel thread ) goes high . But irq-rx ( kernel thread ) cpu utilization remains same . Why is it so ? 2 . I modified static priority of ksoftirq-rx ( using renice ) to +19 and my user space application ( say app-x ) is made -19 . But still my app-x wont get any cycles ?? 3 . How do i set scheduling algorithm of all processes and threads to Round Robin . So that my app-x would get some processor cycles ? Should i individually set scheduling algorithm for each process ? thanks, ratheesh -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netfilter" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
