R80.40 - CP Command to check if SMT is enabled

Danny — Mon, 13 Jul 2020 14:49:48 GMT

I'm on a Check Point 7000 appliance (datasheet) which has R80.40 JHF 55 installed and SMT enabled in BIOS.
/proc/cpuinfo shows 32 virtual CPU cores:

Which CP command will show me that SMT is actually enabled?
sk93000 suggests: cat /proc/smt_status

CLI R80.40 Reference Guide suggests: $FWDIR/boot/fwboot ht --enabled; echo $?

Of course there are ways to figure it out via /proc/cpuinfo but I'm looking for a Check Point command to simply tell if SMT is on or not.

I noticed that original cat command to detect SMT stopped working in Gaia 3.10, try this:

cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/smt/active

1=active

0=inactive

There is also the 'show asset system' clish command:
