[OpenWrt-Devel] Symmetric MultiProcessing broken for IXP4xx arch.

[Carlos Ferreira]

Yes I know that, but the thing is, for the 3.10 kernel, CONFIG_RPS depends
on CONFIG_SMP.
CONFIG_RPS enables the definition of  real_num_rx_queues field for the
netdev_rx_queue struct (netdevice.h). Netmap requires the existence of the
real_num_rx_queues field. I cannot compile it CONFIG_RPS is not active.
Beyond 3.13 (I think), the real_num_rx_queues field is defined if
CONFIG_SYSFS is defined.
