Solution BUG: Bad page state in process kworker

Once I assembled a new access server with Accel-ppp and Intel XL710 network adapters, and after putting it into operation, I noticed that all processor cores are used evenly, and the tenth core is used almost 100%, and I also noticed messages in the logs:

Silicom Intel XL710 firmware not updating

One day they sent me an Intel XL710-QDA2 network adapter, from the manufacturer Silicom, on which the firmware could not be updated.

Script to bind Intel NIC interrupts to processor cores

I will give the script code from Intel to bind interrupts of Intel network adapters to processor cores, and also show examples of its use:

Intel 700 Series Network Adapters Firmware Update

For example, I will update the firmware in the Intel XL710-QDA1 network adapter from version 6.01 (6.01) to 8.21 (8.15).

Intel i40e driver update

For example, I will take an Intel XL710-QDA1 QSFP+ network adapter and a couple more with an Intel chip, for example, HPE 562SFP+, I will install them in an HPE DL380 Gen10 server running Ubuntu Server 18.04.
