Dear Gentoo Users and Dev, I've just installed on my desktop the last gentoo-sources package ( in portage (2.6.16-r7). It seems that the hyperthreading is unvailable since when I do : 'cat /proc/cpuinfo', I can just see a single computer.
That is really strange since I was using the previous package (gentoo-sources-2.6.16-r6) with hyperthreading feature enabled. To build my kernel, I use genkernel (with --menuconfig option). I keep the same configuration as the one for gentoo-sources-2.6.16-r6, that I loaded. In my '.config' file, I have the following options, that as I know should make hyperthreading available. : CONFIG_MPENTIUM4=y and CONFIG_SMP=y CONFIG_NR_CPUS=2 CONFIG_SCHED_SMT=y My CPU is a single Pentium 4 3.2GHz with HT. Hereunder is the result of 'cat /proc/cpuinfo' with the previous kernel: processor : 0 vendor_id : GenuineIntel cpu family : 15 model : 3 model name : Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 3.20GHz stepping : 4 cpu MHz : 3192.178 cache size : 1024 KB physical id : 0 siblings : 2 core id : 0 cpu cores : 1 fdiv_bug : no hlt_bug : no f00f_bug : no coma_bug : no fpu : yes fpu_exception : yes cpuid level : 5 wp : yes flags : fpu vme de pse tsc msr pae mce cx8 apic sep mtrr pge mca cmov pat pse36 clflush dts acpi mmx fxsr sse sse2 ss ht tm pbe constant_tsc pni monitor ds_cpl cid xtpr bogomips : 6391.31 processor : 1 vendor_id : GenuineIntel cpu family : 15 model : 3 model name : Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 3.20GHz stepping : 4 cpu MHz : 3192.178 cache size : 1024 KB physical id : 0 siblings : 2 core id : 0 cpu cores : 1 fdiv_bug : no hlt_bug : no f00f_bug : no coma_bug : no fpu : yes fpu_exception : yes cpuid level : 5 wp : yes flags : fpu vme de pse tsc msr pae mce cx8 apic sep mtrr pge mca cmov pat pse36 clflush dts acpi mmx fxsr sse sse2 ss ht tm pbe constant_tsc pni monitor ds_cpl cid xtpr bogomips : 6384.19 Does somebody know what is wrong in my case ?
