Subject: kernel: add a RPS balancer
X-Git-Url: http://git.openwrt.org/?p=openwrt%2Fstaging%2Fjow.git;a=commitdiff_plain;h=7af1fb9faafbc842fc727c49108f5fc4edc08601

kernel: add a RPS balancer

By default the RPS delegation will happen by masking the last few bits of
skb->hash. This patch adds an inermediate hash bucket that maps the masked
hash to a RPS core. This makes RPS results much more deterministic on SMP
systems.
