Damien,
Well done to everyone that has worked on the 64 bit SMP. This is a very significant achievement.
There are still quite a few known issues with UP stress testing to resolve. Nevertheless I'll try a 64 bit SMP with the same stress test cases once the patches are merged. I also have a working 64 bit hardware platform that can be used with SMP too.
Cheers,
Mike.

Hi all,
Thanks to Brent B making some super suggestions,
this patchset allows SMP on 64 bit to boot.
TESTED:
- CI now passes on x86_64 (without user32) with ncpus=8
- x86_64 smp boots to login console and compiles gnumach with "make -j5" on a -smp 6 qemu system
gnumach configured with: --enable-kdb --enable-ncpus=8 --enable-apic --disable-linux-groups
- i386 still passes CI 100%
