NAME
       irqbalance -  distribute  hardware  interrupts across processors on a multiprocessor system

SYNOPSIS
       irqbalance [debug | oneshot]

DESCRIPTION
       irqbalance is a Linux daemon that distributes interrupts over the processors and cores you have in your computer system. The design goal of
       irqbalance is to do find a balance between power savings and optimal performance. To a large degree, the work irqbalance does is invisible
       to you; if irqbalance performs its job right, nobody will ever notice it's there or want to turn it off.

       For more information, visit the irqbalance homepage at http://www.irqbalance.org.

OPTIONS
       debug  Prints debug messages on stdout.

       oneshot
	      Only do a one shot setup.

ENVIRONMENT
       IRQBALANCE_BANNED_CPUS
	      Bitmap of CPUs that are banned from IRQ balancing

       IRQBALANCE_ONESHOT
	      Same as the oneshot option mentioned above.

       IRQBALANCE_DEBUG
	      Same as the debug option mentioned above.

       IRQBALANCE_BANNED_INTERRUPTS
	      Interrupt that don't get balanced as list (separation character doesn't matter). For example broken chipsets don't allow the timer
	      interrupt to be set to another CPU than the first, and with this option that policy can be applied.
