I just compiled 2.6.27 (pae) using my .config from 2.6.26. It boots fine, but only one CPU shows up, despite "vcpus = 4" and all of the SMP goodness enabled. This happens on both Xen 3.2.x and 3.3.x (64 bit hypervisor).

beefcake:2.6.27-linode14# grep SMP .config

root@ubuntu:~# cat /proc/cpuinfo
processor    : 0
...
(and that's it -- just one CPU)

I must be missing something obvious, so I'd appreciate another set of eyes on this. My .config, boot log, and xen.conf are located here:

http://www.theshore.net/~caker/xen/2.6.27-linode14/bootlog.txt
http://www.theshore.net/~caker/xen/2.6.27-linode14/xen.conf

Same with 2.6.27.4 and a defconfig + the paravirt stuff enabled. So, what's the trick for getting SMP working with 2.6.27.* domUs? Has anyone achieved this?

Thanks,
-Chris
