custom kernel for intel quad core

V

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".
 
Code: 
# 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.
 
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.

Already enabled by default in 7.0-RELEASE as well.
