  • Thread-topic: [PATCH] automatic enabling of bigsmp

Hi Keir, Ian,
   As you know, for systems with more than 8 cpus the APIC is needed to
be configured in the clustered mode with the apic=bigsmp kernel
parameter.
This patch does the apic mode selection automatically without the need
of the apic=bigsmp boot parameter. 

Thanks & Regards,
Nitin
