hi:

   what is the function of do_softirq()?

   It is called by ksoftirqd() ,which is setup by :  kernel_thread(ksoftirqd, hcpu, CLONE_KERNEL) ;


Please read "Understanding the Linux Kernel" Chapter on Interrupts and Section on Softirqs and tasklets.  Page number 171(might be different in other editions) onwards.


thanks!
