Hello all LinuxPPC developpers,
I'm the maintainer of the Linux SMP FAQ (see pointer below if you want
to have a look). Right know, this FAQ is very x86 centric but I plan to
change that. Looking at linuxppc.org, it seems that :
- support is beeing developed (by lead programmer Cort Dougan )for
PowerSurge boards. This includes the UMAX s900.
- support for SMP PowerMac is working.
So here are my questions :
1. what is the current status of SMP support for LinuxPPC? any table?
2. is there any specific things to do to make a PPC SMP system?
(kernel compilation, boot, etc.)
3. is there a mailing-list I should subscribe to to have further info
on this subject (i.e. SMP && PPC && Linux)?
4. any bench result of SMP system?
Thanks in advance for any info/pointer,
Best Regards,
david
