Subject: [9fans] Plan9 for Intel SMP - any progress ?
Date: Wed, 15 Jul 1998 19:09:39 BST

In April I reported that I had a version of Plan 9 running on dual Intel
processors.  Since then I have incorporated the Brazil APIC code,
kindly supplied by jmk@pla..., so that interrupts are now
distributed across all processors, and it should run on any IMPS-compliant
configuration.

I have just (today) received a newer version of the Brazil APIC code, so
I would like to check whether anything needs updating before I release
the SMP kernel.  But if you are impatient to try it, please let me know.
