In reference to #2138; I'd like to give fixing this issue a shot to get my feet wet with RTEMS.
I tried enabling the tests in ./testsuites/smptests/ to find a way to make the test fail at first, so I'd have a frame of reference, but I couldn't quite get the test to be compiled for i386 at all. (I'm not quite sure yet how --enable-tests determines which of the testsuites get built - I think bspopts.h.in is generated based on the BSP-specific config?) Based on the little note about --enable-smp in the docs[1], I added the switch, along with --enable-tests during the configure stage. Full command: ../kernel/configure --prefix=$HOME/bin/rtems/5-i386 --target=i386-rtems5 --enable-rtemsbsp=pc386 --enable-posix --enable-tests --enable-smp This results in a failure at the make step[2] (at least as of commit cf2024 (and a quick test against 828049, after running bootstrap -H as well)). Before the preinstall stage was removed, BSP_HAS_SMP in ./c/src/lib/libbsp/i386/pc386/include/bspopts.h.in was undef'd as well, which seems to be relevant. I haven't dug enough into what may be causing the error; I'm sending this email erring on the side of asking too many questions, since I figured it'd be more effective to just get help and work faster from the collective genius of the community! Am I just doing something inherently misguided in even trying to enable these tests for i386?
