MP Configuration Table
The operating system must have access to some information about the multiprocessor
configuration. The MP specification provides two methods for passing this information to the
operating system: a minimal method for configurations that conform to one of a set of common
hardware defaults, and a maximal method that provides the utmost flexibility in hardware design.
Figure 4-1 shows the general layout of the MP configuration data structures.
