Eventually but right now aarch64 does not have SMP support.

I don't think this particular ARM variant has SMP support in hardware.

This should work.

A sufficiently high pc BSP variant should also work on qemu.

The real hardware didn't support SMP but worse, these qemu models are
marked for removal and I don't know that I ever knew how to use them. I
vaguely recall having to have a boot ROM image but that memory may
be flawed.

leon3 should do SMP on sis (but not the one in gdb which is now disabled)
as well as when using qemu.

Jiri's standalone sis is nice for leon and riscv SMP.
