Abstract: An interrupt processing method applied to a server including a plurality of cores, the plurality of cores include an interrupt processing core and a service processing core that runs a service process, and the method is implemented by the interrupt processing core and includes: receiving an interrupt processing request, where the interrupt processing request is used to request to process at least one of a plurality of TCP data packets of the service process that are stored in an interrupt queue, and destination ports of all of the plurality of TCP data packets correspond to a same interrupt queue; obtaining the at least one TCP data packet from the interrupt queue; determining the service processing core based on the at least one TCP data packet, where there is cache space shared by the interrupt processing core and the service processing core; and waking the service processing core.

Abstract: A manager in a cloud system obtains hardware attributes of a physical computer to be provisioned before an operating system is installed in the physical computer. To that end, after remotely starting the physical computer, the manager sends to the physical computer upgrade instructions for a boot system of the physical computer. The upgrade instructions are executed by the physical computer in a boot operation to collect its hardware attributes and send the collected hardware attributes to the manager. Thereafter, the manager sends an image of an operation system to the physical machine for installation by the boot system on the physical computer.
