>is anybody actively working on this (SMP)?
I hope to start something shortly. I am a 5 processor machine here
and only being able to run NetBSD/arm32 on one processor is a tad
frustrating.
So far my primary goal has been getting the NetBSD/arm32 port merged into
the source tree etc.
Multiprocessor support one of the major things that I need to tackle.
In the case of NetBSD/arm32 the multiprocessor configuration is not SMP
but is 1 master with 4 slave processors.
I was hoping that there would be others working on multiprocessor support
as it looks like a fairly big undertaking.
Cheers.,
Mark
