As discussed in http://www.spinics.net/lists/netdev/msg271497.html If number of IRQs allocated is greater than the number of local NUMA cores, all local cores will be used first, and the rest of the IRQs will be on a remote NUMA node. If no NUMA support - IRQ's and cores will be mapped 1:1 Since the utility function to calculate the mapping could be useful in other mq drivers in the kernel, it was added to cpumask.[ch] This patchset was tested and applied on top of net-next since the first consumer is a network device (mlx4_en).
