There's actually two parts to the patch. One is the kernel command line option to allow HT to be enabled/disabled. The second is this config option that allows the default to be off instead of the current always-on. The idea is that we want our users to be able to use hyper-threading, but we don't want it on by default. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
