PARALLEL EXECUTION OF ENHANCED EFI BASED BIOS DRIVERS ON A MULTI-PROCESSOR OR HYPER-THREADING ENABLED PLATFORM

摘要

Parallel execution of peripheral drivers on a multi-processor and/or hyper-threading enabled processor is described. According to one embodiment of the invention, two peripheral drivers are executed concurrently during a boot sequence. These peripheral drivers are executed on a first and a second processor. The processors may be logical or physical processors.
