Hi Philip,

I would like to model simple multitasking on a multiprocessor configuration. In
the archive, there is some discussion of the need for a different ASID for each
process so address spaces don't overlap:

We are still in the middle of a major memory system restructuring that should take care of this problem in v2.0, but that doesn't help you now. I don't know if the original poster (or anyone else) has hacked this in to the current version.


plus some discussion of why this hack may not work:

I just skimmed this message quickly, but I don't see anything in there that affects what you want to do (though I may have missed it).


Has there been any progress on this?

(I only want to run SE, not FS, since no doubt we also don't have an SMP-capable
Alpha Linux.)

It's easy to get an SMP-capable Alpha Linux... if you build a cross-compiler with crosstools that's all you need to cross-compile a full kernel and libraries on an x86 machine. No actual Alpha machines are needed.
