Hello,
I have a weird problem:
When I boot Linux get 8 cores (hyper-threading so 4 real cores).
However if I boot using Xen, i only get 1 cpu core:xl info report:
"nr_cpus:1 nr_cores: 1 cores_per_socket:1 threads_per_core: 1"
Laptop is a ThinkPad w520 with a i7-2860QM with EFI-bios enabled.
Anyone has any suggestions ?
Kind regards,
Killian De Volder
