The Linux kernel configuration item CONFIG_SMP has multiple definitions:
arch/csky/KconfigThe configuration item CONFIG_SMP:
CONFIG_CPU_CK860(none)
arch/xtensa/KconfigThe configuration item CONFIG_SMP:
CONFIG_HAVE_SMPEnabled SMP Software; allows more than one CPU/CORE to be activated during startup.
arch/x86/KconfigThe configuration item CONFIG_SMP:
(none)This enables support for systems with more than one CPU. If you have a system with only one CPU, say N. If you have a system with more than one CPU, say Y.
If you say N here, the kernel will run on uni- and multiprocessor machines, but will use only one CPU of a multiprocessor machine. If you say Y here, the kernel will run on many, but not all, uniprocessor machines. On a uniprocessor machine, the kernel will run faster if you say N here.
Note that if you say Y here and choose architecture "586" or "Pentium" under "Processor family", the kernel will not work on 486 architectures. Similarly, multiprocessor kernels for the "PPro" architecture may not work on all Pentium based boards.
People using multiprocessor machines who say Y here should also say Y to "Enhanced Real Time Clock Support", below. The "Advanced Power Management" code will be disabled if you say Y here.

arch/um/Kconfig.umThe configuration item CONFIG_SMP:
CONFIG_BROKENThis option enables UML SMP support. It is NOT related to having a real SMP box. Not directly, at least.
UML implements virtual SMP by allowing as many processes to run simultaneously on the host as there are virtual processors configured.
Obviously, if the host is a uniprocessor, those processes will timeshare, but, inside UML, will appear to be running simultaneously. If the host is a multiprocessor, then UML processes may run simultaneously, depending on the host scheduler.
This, however, is supported only in TT mode. So, if you use the SKAS patch on your host, switching to TT mode and enabling SMP usually gives you worse performances. Also, since the support for SMP has been under-developed, there could be some bugs being exposed by enabling SMP.
