May the reason be in a > buggy CPUID ? This is very curious. With older revisions did the system believe your CPUs were HTT? You can tell if you had sysctl machdep.hyperthreading_allowed or via the ULE kern.sched.topology_spec sysctl. I didn't realize there were any core2 CPUs without leaf 4 of cpuid. However, I didn't write the earlier hyperthread detection code. I'll see if I can get jhb to chime in. The HTT feature bit is set on many processors that don't have hyperthreads. So we need a secondary way of differentiating. I don't know what that is in this case. Thanks, Jeff > > -- > wbr, > pluknet >Received on Fri May 01 2009 - 03:12:42 UTC
