    NAME

    
    
    SMP
    
     - description of the FreeBSD Symmetric Multi-Processor kernel
    
     
    

    SYNOPSIS

    options SMP  

    DESCRIPTION

    The kernel implements symmetric multi-processor support.  

    COMPATIBILITY

    Support for multi-processor systems is present for all Tier-1 architectures on Fx . Currently, this includes amd64, i386, ia64, and sparc64. Support is enabled using options SMP It is permissible to use the SMP kernel configuration on non-SMP equipped motherboards.  

    I386 NOTES

    For i386 systems, the kernel supports motherboards that follow the Intel MP specification, version 1.4. In addition to options SMP i386 also requires device apic The mptable(1) command may be used to view the status of multi-processor support.

    The number of CPUs detected by the system is available in the read-only sysctl variable hw.ncpu

    Fx allows specific CPUs on a multi-processor system to be disabled. The sysctl variable machdep.hlt_cpus is an integer bitmask denoting CPUs to halt, counting from 0. Setting a bit to 1 will result in the corresponding CPU being disabled.

    Fx supports hyperthreading on Intel CPU's on the i386 platform. Since using logical CPUs can cause performance penalties under certain loads, the logical CPUs can be disabled by setting the machdep.hlt_logical_cpus sysctl to one.

    HISTORY

    The kernel's early history is not (properly) recorded. It was developed in a separate CVS branch until April 26, 1997, at which point it was merged into 3.0-current. By this date 3.0-current had already been merged with Lite2 kernel code.

    Fx 5.0 introduced support for a host of new synchronization primitives, and a move towards fine-grained kernel locking rather than reliance on a Giant kernel lock. The SMPng Project relied heavily on the support of BSDi, who provided reference source code from the fine-grained SMP implementation found in Bs x .

    Fx 5.0 also introduced support for SMP on the ia64 and sparc64 architectures.
