+==== Dual Core ====
+Some SoCs like BCM6358 or BCM6368 has two cores, however** OpenWrt only uses 1 core**. Spite there is SMP code for using two cores in the kernel (see [[http://lxr.free-electrons.com/source/arch/mips/kernel/smp-bmips.c|smp-bmips.c]]), it seems hard to use both cores: it is needed to initialize the second cpu; also the irq code code currently only enables irqs on the first cpu, so only userspace can use the second core, all interrupt handlers will use the first one.
