missing --hintpolicy option #311

Closed freedomwarrior closed 4 months ago

freedomwarrior commented 4 months ago

Hello. I see that hintpolicy was removed. What to do if I need to set numa_node=-1 ? Considering to this problem, we need also to set hintpolicy for proper work of numa_node=-1

if you need to honor the affinity_hint exported by the kernel, guidance is to create a policy script, identifying those irqs that need to honor the hint, set ban=true and manually copy the affinity hint to the smp_affinity proc control for the irq

I don't think this problem exists in the latest version. irqbalance now behaves the same as when the "--hintpolicy=ignore" parameter is used. To solve this problem, you do not need to use hintpolicy additionally. If you want the smp_affinity and affinity_hint exported by the kernel to be the same, you can create a policy script.
