Due to some device driver issues, I built this iteration of the patch
vs. 2.6.12.3.
(Sorry about the attachment, but KMail is still word wrapping inserted
files.)
Background:
Here's a patch that builds on Natalie Protasevich's IRQ compression
patch and tries to work for MPS boots as well as ACPI. It is meant for
a 4-node IBM x460 NUMA box, which was dying because it had interrupt
pins with GSI numbers > NR_IRQS and thus overflowed irq_desc.
The problem is that this system has 280 GSIs (which are 1:1 mapped with
I/O APIC RTEs) and an 8-node box would have 560. This is much bigger
than NR_IRQS (224 for both i386 and x86_64). Also, there aren't enough
vectors to go around. There are about 190 usable vectors, not counting
the reserved ones and the unused vectors at 0x20 to 0x2F. So, my patch
attempts to compress the GSI range and share vectors by sharing IRQs.

This allows you to specify the maximum number of CPUs which this
