Hello,
Is SMP enabled in the GENERIC kernel? I have a hyperthreading box, and on
Linux it shows up with two cpus. When I do a top on the box in FreeBSD I still
see only one CPU. Also, sysctl -a | grep cpu only shows a dev.cpu.0.
The GENERIC does not support SMP.
If you look into the config files you will see two kernel configuration
files: SMP and GENERIC, SMP simply changes the IDENT, sets option SMP
and includes GENERIC.
Simply build and install your kernel,
# make KERNCONF=SMP buildkernel
# make KERNCONF=SMP installkernel
to get an SMP enabled GENERIC kernel.
Cheers, Erik (I assume you're on v. 6.x).
