Hi all,
I've got a system that has two hyperthread-capable Xeons. If I boot it
with 2.6.10 it shows up as 4 cpus, but with 2.6.14 it only shows 2 cpus.
The relevent boot logs are:
2.6.10:
DMI 2.3 present.
ACPI: LAPIC (acpi_id[0x01] lapic_id[0x00] enabled)
Processor #0 15:2 APIC version 20
ACPI: LAPIC (acpi_id[0x02] lapic_id[0x06] enabled)
Processor #6 15:2 APIC version 20
ACPI: LAPIC (acpi_id[0x03] lapic_id[0x01] enabled)
Processor #1 15:2 APIC version 20
ACPI: LAPIC (acpi_id[0x04] lapic_id[0x07] enabled)
Processor #7 15:2 APIC version 20
Using ACPI for processor (LAPIC) configuration information
Intel MultiProcessor Specification v1.4
Virtual Wire compatibility mode.

2.6.14:

Anyone have any ideas?

You snipped the important part of the log. It's not using ACPI in 2.6.14
for some reason, which you need for HT to be detected. Either you didn't
configure it in or it's failed to enable somehow. Please post the entire
dmesg.

you don't appear to have ACPI enabled... how does 2.6.22 or 2.6.23-rc
fare?

Wacky. In 2.6.10 CONFIG_ACPI is disabled, but somehow it has
CONFIG_ACPI_BOOT=y and CONFIG_ACPI_BLACKLIST_YEAR=0.
In 2.6.14, turning on CONFIG_ACPI allows it to detect 4 cpus.
Thanks for the help.
