[−][src]Module uefi::proto::pi::mp
Multi-processor management protocols.
On any system with more than one logical processor we can categorize them as:
- BSP — bootstrap processor, executes modules that are necessary for booting the system
- AP — application processor, any processor other than the bootstrap processor
This module contains protocols that provide a generalized way of performing the following tasks on these logical processors:
- retrieving information of multi-processor environment and MP-related status of specific processors
- dispatching user-provided function to APs
- maintaining MP-related processor status
Structs
| CPUPhysicalLocation | Information about physical location of the processor. |
| MPServices | Protocol that provides services needed for multi-processor management. |
| ProcessorCount | Information about number of logical processors on the platform. |
| ProcessorInformation | Information about processor on the platform. |
Type Definitions
| Procedure | Callback to be called on the AP. |
