Abstract
Techniques of network traffic management in a computing device are disclosed. One example method includes receiving, at a main processor, a request from a network interface controller to perform network processing operations for packets assigned by the network interface controller to a queue of a virtual port of the network interface controller. The method also includes, in response to receiving the request, causing one of multiple cores of the main processor with which the queue of the virtual port is affinitized to perform the network processing operations to effect processing and transmission of the packets to an application executing in a virtual machine hosted on the computing device.
