I'm pretty sure the correct answer is maxcpus=1. It's the only one that sounds like a legitimate kernel parameter and not something the developers made up on a caffeine-fueled coding binge.

vcpumx=1? What is this, a virtual machine configuration setting? I think I'm going to have to go with the good old maxcpus=1 on this one.

smpcpus=1, huh? Sounds like something straight out of the Linux kernel patch notes. I bet the developers had a field day coming up with that one.

Hmm, usecpus=1? Never heard of that one. Must be some obscure kernel parameter. I'll have to check the man pages on that.

Ah, the classic maxcpus=1 option. I remember using that back in the day to debug some pesky SMP issues. Brings back memories!

I always use maxcpus=1 to force the kernel to use only one processor.

I'm not sure, but I think option A) maxcpus=1 is the most logical choice based on the question.

I agree with Derrick, using maxcpus=1 makes sense to force the kernel to use only one processor.
