[RFC][PATCH] CONFIG_NR_CPUS for 2.4.21 (take 2)

From: J.A. Magallon (jamagallon@able.es)
Date: Fri Jun 20 2003 - 15:43:49 EST


Hi all...

Here's the patch, with CONFIG_NR_CPUS defaulted to 32 on all architectures.

+Maximum number of CPUs
+CONFIG_NR_CPUS
+ This allows you to specify the maximum number of CPUs which this
+ kernel will support. The maximum supported value is 32 and the
+ mimimum value which makes sense is 2.
+
+ This is purely to save memory - each supported CPU adds
+ approximately eight kilobytes to the kernel image.
