Can't answer this, but I guess each core will be seen as a physical CPU as they are real CPU cores, not just logical CPUs as with multithreading. > Vanderpool is a hardware support for OS virtualization (running multiple OS > "at the same time"), how does Linux kernel make use of this, particularly > which part of the kernel code? At least, Xen will make great use of Vanderpool (VT) for virtualization purpouses. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/

There's Xen support for upcoming VT, which will allow running unmodified guest. thanks, -chris - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
Multi-core, Vanderpool support?
Hello, Does anyone happen to know how the upcoming multi-core CPU will be handled by the kernel? Does it see each core as a physical or logical CPU or ? Vanderpool is a hardware support for OS virtualization (running multiple OS "at the same time"), how does Linux kernel make use of this, particularly which part of the kernel code? I poke around the source (2.6.10) some but haven't figured both issues out yet. Many thanks!
