Subject: IRQ handling difference between i386 and x86_64
Hello,
It seems that IRQ handling is somehow different between i386 and x86_64.
In my Dell PowerEdge 1950 is it possible to enable interrupts spreading
over all CPUs. This a single CPU, four CORE system (Quad-Core E5335 Xeon)
so I think that interrupts migration may be useful. Unfortunately, it
works only with 32-bit kernel. Booting it with x86_64 leads to situation,
when all interrupts goes only to the first cpu matching a smp_affinity
mask.

Please notice also that irq numbers are different:
- libata: 20 on i386, 23 on x86_64
- ioc: 21 on i386, 64 on x86_64
- ehci_hcd:usb1: 22 on i386, 21 on x86_64
- uhci_hcd:usb3: 23 on i386, 20 on x86_64
- eth1, eth0, ioat: 212/213/214 on i386, 372/373/374 on x86_64
Two question:
- Is it possible to make irq spreading working on x86_64?
- Why the irq numbers are different?
Attaching dmesg and lspci from both i386 and x86_64.
Best regards,
Krzysztof Olędzki
