A method, apparatus, system, and signal-bearing medium that, in an
embodiment, detect a new task priority for a processor, where the
processor is connected to a first node, find a home node for the
processor via a cluster to which the processor belongs, and send the new
task priority to the home node if the home node is different from the
first node. In another embodiment, an interrupt directed to a first
processor is detected, the interrupt is determined to be redirectable, a
home node for the first process is found via a cluster to which the first
processor belongs, and an interrupt vector is sent to the home node if
the home node is different from the first node.
