The cpuid is a software ID value assigned during boot. It is not directly related to any specific hardware IDs. > How is the CPUSTATES value obtained/changed with hardware in the source > code? Do you mean, does cp_time[] handle hardware changes (hotplug CPUs, etc.)? Currently that isn't supported, the kernel assumes the set of CPUs is static for a given boot's lifetime. -- John Baldwin _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
