Hi People! How are you doing?
I'm writting to you because I have a doubt about interrupts.
If I look the interrupts assigned to my eth* with ifconfig, I get:
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr bb:aa:bb:bb:aa:aa
Interrupt:20 Memory:f7e00000-f7e20000
eth1 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr bb:aa:bb:bb:aa:aa
Interrupt:18 Memory:f7d00000-f7d20000
As you can see, my system assigned IRQ-20 and IRQ-18 to eth0 and eth1.
But If i look into /proc/interrupts, I don't have these interrupts:

As you can see, seems to be that eth1 has IRQ-45 IRQ-46 and IRQ-47, and eth0 has IRQ-43.
I don't understand why ifconfig shows another IRQ.
Is this a normal behaviour? Someone would be so kind to explain me this?
Or maybe throw me some paper that explains this.
thank you very much
Best Regards
Oscar
