sirq/hoghogeってなに?

"sirq-XXX"とは？

コレ参考になる。筑波大学の講義か。

要約すると??

優先度の高いtaskで、driverのbottom halfやprotocol stackの処理を行う。
kernel threadで、SMPならcoreごとに名前が異なる。（"ksoftirqd/0","ksoftirqd/1"とか）

展開すると以下イメージで処理される。
cpu_callback(&cpu_nfb, CPU_UP_PREPARE, cpu);
		for (i = 0; i < NR_SOFTIRQS; i++) {
			per_cpu(ksoftirqd, hotcpu)[i].nr = i;
			per_cpu(ksoftirqd, hotcpu)[i].cpu = hotcpu;
			per_cpu(ksoftirqd, hotcpu)[i].tsk = NULL;
		}
		for (i = 0; i < NR_SOFTIRQS; i++) {
			p = kthread_create(run_ksoftirqd,
					   &per_cpu(ksoftirqd, hotcpu)[i],
					   "sirq-%s/%d", softirq_names[i],
					   hotcpu);
			if (IS_ERR(p)) {
				printk("ksoftirqd %d for %i failed\n", i,
				       hotcpu);
				return NOTIFY_BAD;
			}
			kthread_bind(p, hotcpu);
			per_cpu(ksoftirqd, hotcpu)[i].tsk = p;
		}
cpu_callback(&cpu_nfb, CPU_ONLINE, cpu);

			param.sched_priority = MAX_RT_PRIO-1;
			p = per_cpu(ksoftirqd, hotcpu)[i].tsk;
			sched_setscheduler(p, SCHED_FIFO, &param);
			per_cpu(ksoftirqd, hotcpu)[i].tsk = NULL;
			kthread_stop(p);
		}
		takeover_tasklets(hotcpu);
