max_loop=<br />

be mounted<br />

Format: <br />

maxcpus=<br />

[SMP] Maximum number of processors that an SMP kernel<br />

<strong>Kernel</strong> <strong>Parameters</strong><br />

should make use of.<br />

Using "nosmp" or "maxcpus=0" will disable SMP<br />

entirely (the MPS table probe still happens, though).<br />

A command-line option of "maxcpus=",<br />

where is an integer greater than 0, limits the<br />

maximum number of CPUs activated in SMP mode to<br />

.Using "maxcpus=1" on an SMP kernel is the trivial<br />

case of an SMP kernel with only one CPU.<br />

max_addr=<br />

[KMG] [KNL,BOOT,ia64] All physical memory greater<br />

than or equal to this physical address is ignored.<br />

max_luns=<br />

[SCSI] Maximum number of LUNs to probe.<br />

Should be between 1 and 2^32-1.<br />
