30 * This routine provides fast access to the logical cpu number
31 * of the calling processor assuming no pre-emption occurs. This number
32 * is encoded in the bottom 12-bits of the limit field of the IDTR (the
33 * Interrupt Descriptor Table Register). The SIDT instruction is used in
34 * userspace to read this register and thus to gain access to the cpu number.
35 * The IDTR is loaded by the kernel for each processor at startup - see
36 * osfmk/i386/mp_desc.c.
