custom kernel for intel quad core

[vlad2005]

What option need to put on my custom kernel, to compile for intel quad core?
OS is, freebsd 7 amd64, and conf "/usr/src/sys/amd64/conf".

# To make an SMP kernel, the next two lines are needed
options SMP # Symmetric MultiProcessor Kernel
device apic # I/O APIC


Plus the rest of your hardware of course.

Thanks!

I believe those are enabled in the GENERIC kernel, too - if that's where you're starting from you shouldn't need to change anything.

In RELENG_7 SMP is the default. The GENERIC kernel does everything you need, there's nothing to gain by using a custom kernel.

You also can try to replace
options SCHED_4BSD
with
options SCHED_ULE
It's by default from 7.1

Already enabled by default in 7.0-RELEASE as well.
