From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@xxxxxxxx>
The x86-32 kernel used to support multiple platforms with more than eight
logical CPUs, from the 1999-2003 timeframe: Sequent NUMA-Q, IBM Summit,
Unisys ES7000 and HP F8. Support for all except the latter was dropped
back in 2014, leaving only the F8 based DL740 and DL760 G2 machines in
this catery, with up to eight single-core Socket-603 Xeon-MP processors
with hyperthreading.
Like the already removed machines, the HP F8 servers at the cost upwards
of $100k in typical configurations, but were quickly obsoleted by
their 64-bit Socket-604 cousins and the AMD Opteron.
Earlier servers with up to 8 Pentium Pro or Xeon processors remain
fully supported as they had no hyperthreading. Similarly, the more
common 4-socket Xeon-MP machines with hyperthreading using Intel
or ServerWorks chipsets continue to work without this, and all the
multi-core Xeon processors also run 64-bit kernels.
While the "bigsmp" support can also be used to run on later 64-bit
machines (including VM guests), it seems best to discourage that
and get any remaining users to update their kernels to 64-bit builds
on these. As a side-effect of this, there is also no more need to
support NUMA configurations on 32-bit x86, as all true 32-bit
NUMA platforms are already gone.
