FreeBSD itself doesn't enforce this, we use whatever CPUs we find in the table and we don't actually bother reading the family/model/etc. from the APs at all. Assuming this is a non-ancient computer and non-ancient FreeBSD (5.2 or later) then FreeBSD isn't using the MP Table at all but the ACPI MADT table (available via acpidump -t). -- John Baldwin _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
