Can we use irq balance on OVM guest VM?
Hi,
I know there is Damon service irqbalance on Linux, but when I started it on OVM VM, it looks dose not work, as the interrupts not distributed on all VCPUs as below shown:
[root@otdsrv1 etc]# cat /proc/interrupts|head -1; cat /proc/interrupts|grep eth
CPU0 CPU1 CPU2 CPU3 CPU4 CPU5 CPU6 CPU7
107: 7487375 0 0 0 0 0 1282504 207 xen-dyn-event eth0-tx
108: 7048891 0 0 0 0 0 0 1191894 xen-dyn-event eth0-rx
only two VCPUs from 8 VCPUs got receiving interrupts from Ethernet port on my VM. My Ethernet port is on single queue NIC, but I applied RPS/XPS/RFS on port.
How to optimize if I try to IRQ balance on all available VCPUs on OVM guest VM?
