Ksoftirqd taking much of CPU in rhel6.5 and centos 6.5
I am running nginx process on rhel/CentOS release 6.5 (Final). I can see ksoftirqd and migration processes are taking much of CPU due to which load on my server increases by great extent. I have made irqbalance service off. In cat /proc/interrupts output i can see out of 60 CPUs only 2 CPUs and their respective cores are getting used.Is this the reason for causing high load on server whenever there are more number of interrupts/socket connections on server. Can someone please help me to manage these interrupts so that at peak time there is less cpu load due increased number of interrupts. I have heard of taskset but it works only on pids. Other than upgrading to rhel7 / centos 6.8 can someone please suggest workaroung to handle these inturrupts in better way.

cpuset_set

CPUSET(3)						   BSD Library Functions Manual 						 CPUSET(3)

NAME

     cpuset_create, cpuset_destroy, cpuset_zero, cpuset_set, cpuset_clr, cpuset_isset, cpuset_size -- dynamic CPU sets

SYNOPSIS

     #include <sched.h>

     cpuset_t *
     cpuset_create(void);

     void
     cpuset_destroy(cpuset_t *set);

     void
     cpuset_zero(cpuset_t *set);

     int
     cpuset_set(cpuid_t cpu, cpuset_t *set);

     int
     cpuset_clr(cpuid_t cpu, cpuset_t *set);

     int
     cpuset_isset(cpuid_t cpu, const cpuset_t *set);

     size_t
     cpuset_size(const cpuset_t *set);

DESCRIPTION

     This section describes the functions used to create, set, use and destroy the dynamic CPU sets.

     This API can be used with the POSIX threads, see pthread(3) and affinity(3).

     The ID of the primary CPU in the system is 0.

FUNCTIONS

     cpuset_create()
	      Allocates and initializes a clean CPU-set.  Returns the pointer to the CPU-set, or NULL on failure.

     cpuset_destroy(set)
	      Destroy the CPU-set specified by set.

     cpuset_zero(set)
	      Makes the CPU-set specified by set clean, that is, memory is initialized to zero bytes, and none of the CPUs set.

     cpuset_set(cpu, set)
	      Sets the CPU specified by cpu in set.  Returns zero on success, and -1 if cpu is invalid.

     cpuset_clr(cpu, set)
	      Clears the CPU specified by cpu in the CPU-set set.  Returns zero on success, and -1 if cpu is invalid.

     cpuset_isset(cpu, set)
	      Checks if CPU specified by cpu is set in the CPU-set set.  Returns the positive number if set, zero if not set, and -1 if cpu is
	      invalid.

     cpuset_size(set)
	      Returns the size in bytes of CPU-set specified by set.

SEE ALSO

     affinity(3), pset(3), sched(3), schedctl(8), kcpuset(9)

HISTORY

     The dynamic CPU sets appeared in NetBSD 5.0.
