Multiprocessing Configuration
=============================
-This section describes multiprocessing related configuration options. The
-options are only used if RTEMS was built with the ``--enable-multiprocessing``
-build configuration option. Additionally, this class of configuration options
-are only applicable if the configuration option :ref:`CONFIGURE_MP_APPLICATION`
-is defined. The multiprocessing (MPCI) support must not be confused with the
-SMP support.
