No one that I know of is actively working on this but maybe someone has got
it working and would like to share?

In terms of development, the SE mode code is there and the FS mode code
that is hardcoded to single threaded instances needs to be expanded for
multiple threads (e.g. change pendingInterrupt[0] to
pendingInterrupt[tid]).

Of course, there are probably a couple startup issues (e.g. configure one
CPU to maintain multiple CPUs so to the OS can logically treat a SMT thread
as another CPU).

And there will more than likely be a couple of corner cases before one
could claim absolute functionality.

The good thing is that since single-threaded O3 FS working, there's a good
amount of the code base there for reference once someone decides to take up
the task.
