Which processor would execute hardware interrupt in a muticore system
<p>In general hardware interrupts need to be processed immediately, at least so as to acknowledge it and do some first level of processing. As I understand this is not scheduled activity. Please correct me.</p>

<p>So the question is how to choose a processor that would actually execute this hardware interrupt handler?</p>

<p>One can answer this for Linux and/or BSD systems</p>
