ogical CPUs are prevented from executing user processes by default, they are not. It also says you can control this behaviour by change the value of the machdep.hlt_logical_cpus sysctl(8) variable. My sysctl doesn't seem to know about this variable. I've checked the archives and someone e

Well..here is yet another question for the group... 4.9-RELEASE: I have SMP running on my P4 machine and when I enabled machdep.hlt_logical_cpus=0 after boot, the machine runs fine... however, if I add it to sysctl.conf as the machine boots I get STREAMS of errors about HANDLER INT and other
