Topic: SMP



  
 Symmetric multiprocessing - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
SMP systems allow any processor to work on any task no matter where the data for that task is located in memory; with proper operating system support, SMP systems can easily move tasks between processors to balance the work load efficiently.
SMP has many uses in science, industry, and business where software is usually custom programmed for multithreaded processing.
The largest of the large SMP systems is the Cray Research X1, which can be configured off the shelf with as many as 4096 processor packages with four custom designed processor cores per SMP node and a maximum of 32 TiB of memory leading to 52.4 TFLOPS of performance.

 SMP
SMP considers the collection of C/N data of primary importance, and C and N data are to be considered as primary data.
SMP recommends that the natural gamma-ray system be configured for 256-channel data acquisition for routine spectral data collection and archiving.
Finally, SMP endorses the proposal to integrate the Teka program in the Physical Properties Laboratory and also in the JANUS database.

 symmetric multiprocessing - a Whatis.com definition - see also: SMP
An advantage of SMP for this purpose is the ability to dynamically balance the workload among computers (and as a result serve more users faster).
SMP, also known as a "shared everything" system, does not usually exceed 16 processors.
In symmetric (or "tightly coupled") multiprocessing, the processors share memory and the I/O bus or data path.

 c't 13/98, page 140 - Symmetrical Multiprocessing with Linux
David Miller, a kernel developer who contributed considerably to optimizing SMP support thinks this is due to the sometimes frightfully high latency times of the new interrupt handling - a problem which will allegedly be solved before version 2.2 is released.
Here is where trouble started for our test machine: In SMP mode, networking would fail predictably when subjected to larger loads.
In addition to the Intel version, Linux for SPARCs can also handle multiple processors: HyperSPARCs are already up and running, SMP support for UltraSPARC and Digital's Alpha is in process.

 GamePC - VIA Apollo Pro 133A SMP Shootout
The first variations of SMP VIA boards were buggy, unstable, and lacked the features needed to become serious workstation boards.
Workstation users love SMP because they can multitask more programs without system slowdown.
Server admins love SMP because many server applications are specifically programmed to run in an SMP environment, and show large performance gains.

 Intel MP Specification compatibility
The Intel MP Specification is a hardware compatibility guide for machine hardware designers and OS software writers to produce SMP-capable machines and OSes in a vendor-independent manner.
The Intel spec doesn't include many code sequences, and though it includes all of the appropriate information which is not in the APIC documentation but relevant to the MPS architecture, many things are not immediately obvious.
This section is for example code and clarifications of the spec (of course, these are not officially sanctioned by Intel) to help the prospective SMP OS writer and/or debugger.

The primary complication is that the current SMP Linux scheduler does not attempt to keep each process on the same processor, a concept known as processor affinity.
