hi list.
I have been wondering what are the openbsd team's long term-plans (if
any at all,of course) regarding future smp support.
I am aware that openbsd currently supports smp under the big kernel
lock, which offers some advantages for userland applications but
generally things like interrupt and io load don't scale at all.
I understand it is an enormous task, judging by the other os'es
struggle to remove the bkl by various techniques.
What are the developers thinking about the future regarding this
matter, and what are their opinions about the other os'es paths as
well.
