8.12 - What OpenBSD platforms support SMP?
(Symmetric Multi-Processor)
SMP
is supported on the
OpenBSD/i386
,
OpenBSD/amd64
,
OpenBSD/mvme88k
,
OpenBSD/sparc64
(including the UltraSPARC T1 processors),
OpenBSD/macppc
,
OpenBSD/sgi
(Octane only), and
OpenBSD/hppa
(
-current only), platforms.
A separate SMP kernel, "
bsd.mp
", is provided with the install file sets. If multiple processors are
detected
at install time, is automatically installed as the default boot kernel,
/bsd
, and the single
processor
kernel is renamed
/bsd.sp
.
If you add additional processors to a system which was installed with only one processor, you will want
to install the appropriate bsd.mp kernel,
rename your existing
/bsd
to
/bsd.sp
, and rename
/bsd.
mp
to
/bsd
.
It is hoped that other SMP-capable platforms will be supported in the future. On most other platforms,
OpenBSD
will run on an SMP system, but only utilizing one processor. The exception to this is the
SPARC
platform -- OpenBSD/sparc will sometimes require that extra MBus modules be removed for
the system to boot.
