 Of some interest is the introduction of the /proc/irq directory to 2.4.
 It could be used to set IRQ to CPU affinity, this means that you can "hook" an
 IRQ to only one CPU, or to exclude a CPU of handling IRQs. The contents of the
-irq subdir is one subdir for each IRQ, and one file; prof_cpu_mask
+irq subdir is one subdir for each IRQ, and two files; default_smp_affinity and
+prof_cpu_mask.
 
 For example

-The contents of the prof_cpu_mask file and each smp_affinity file for each IRQ

+smp_affinity is a bitmask, in which you can specify which CPUs can handle the

+prof_cpu_mask specifies which CPUs are to be profiled by the system wide

 The way IRQs are routed is handled by the IO-APIC, and it's Round Robin
 between all the CPUs which are allowed to handle it. As usual the kernel has
