implications of SMP kernel on UP

[Bjoern A. Zeeb]

Hi,

what are the implications on running an SMP enabled kernel on a UP
machine ?

I first thought of things like:
- performence (most likely not worth the discussion ?)
- additional locking problematic ?
- ... ?


Or asked the other way round: why would I want to disable SMP on a
kernel that is going to run on a UP machine ?
