Hello, bug-hurd readers,
The "Patches" section of the Hurd's Savannah project page, along with
the hurd-web maling list have not been all that active lately, so just
to make sure someone sees this, I want to start a discussion here in
the main mailing-list regarding the current state of local.css.

Yes, this is the idea. I set mach_ncpus to maximum value to avoid broken the
cpu structure arrays.
But It's not the only that I need to enable cpus. I also need to find their
APIC s

Ok. I'll take notes about this idea.
Currently, I have an implementation to find lapic and ioapic from ACPI
tables, from the kernel.
In the test model runs correctly, now I'm porting this to gnumach.
This is a preliminary implementation:

A simple question: Is It possible to run a routine in userland from
gnumach?
Or It's necessary to run a external userland application, as a Hurd server.
I don't know if could be possible

I mean to possibly provide from userland to the kernel the information
for booting the other cores.

I don't sure about you says. Are you suggesting to boot the other cores
from a Hurd server?
My idea is about to implement SMP support from gnumach, searching and
starting the cpus during the boot.
I can find the other cpus (the local apic and ioapic) from ACPI tables, but
after this I need to sen

Thinking about it: parsing ACPI tables could be done in userland.
Userland could then tell the kernel how to boot other cores. W
Sir,
I have almost fixed errors and configured valgrind to state where I think
its time to start the porting of Mach traps and the RPC handler. My
observation is that we need to handle mach traps in a way similar to what
the other operating systems do theirs and RPCs using a new specific
handler. C
