Working? :-) Well, there are servers at reasonable prices and a lot of cores &/| sockets with POWER 8 cpus. Mine has a lot of problems, though none seem to be related to SMP :). I'm running 11-CURRENT and I get: root@:/ # dmesg | grep CPU FreeBSD/SMP: Multiprocessor System Detected: 2 CPUs cpulist0: <Open Firmware CPU Group> on ofwbus0 cpu0: <Open Firmware CPU> on cpulist0 cpu1: <Open Firmware CPU> on cpulist0 SMP: AP CPU #8 launched root@:/ # sysctl kern.sched.topology_spec kern.sched.topology_spec: <groups> <group level="1" cache-level="0"> <cpu count="2" mask="101,0,0,0">0, 8</cpu> </group> </groups> Cheers, Luciano. -- /"\ /Via A.
