pae MP on cherry-xenmp



Hi folks,

Quick one to say that I've been able to boot MP successfully from the
[cherry-xenmp] branch.

I'd love for it to be tried out and hammered a bit.

First checkout a buildable version of -current
then:
$ cd sys
$ cvs update -C -rcherry-xenmp src/sys

Note, -C will overwrite all your files in sys/ with those from the branch.

Now build a XEN3PAE_DOMU kernel.

eg:

$ ./build.sh -m i386 tools
$ ./build.sh -m i386 kernel=XEN3PAE_DOMU

That should get you a pae kernel that's MP capable.

Tweak the 'vcpus = n' line to add > 1 vcpus, and you should be good to go.

I'd love to see bug reports please.

Cheers,
