Due to the wide range of + hardware available for this architecture, it is impossible + to exhaustively list all combinations of equipment supported + by &os;. Nevertheless, some general guidelines are + presented here.</para> + + <para>Almost all &i386;-compatible processors with a floating + point unit are supported. All &intel; processors beginning + with the 80486 are supported, including the 80486, &pentium;, + &pentium; Pro, &pentium; II, &pentium; III, &pentium; 4, and + variants thereof, such as the &xeon; and &celeron; processors. + All &i386;-compatible AMD processors are also supported, + including the &am486;, &am5x86;, K5, &amd.k6; (and variants), + &amd.athlon; (including Athlon-MP, Athlon-XP, Athlon-4, and + Athlon Thunderbird), and &amd.duron; processors. The AMD + Élan SC520 embedded processor is supported. The + Transmeta Crusoe is recognized and supported, as are + &i386;-compatible processors from Cyrix and NexGen.</para> + + <para>There is a wide variety of motherboards available for this + architecture. Motherboards using the ISA, VLB, EISA, AGP, and + PCI expansion busses are well-supported. There is some + limited support for the MCA (<quote>MicroChannel</quote>) + expansion bus used in the IBM PS/2 line of PCs.</para> + + <para>Symmetric multi-processor (SMP) systems are generally + supported by &os;, although in some cases, BIOS or motherboard + bugs may generate some problems. Perusal of the archives of + the &a.smp; may yield some clues.</para> + + <para>&os; will take advantage of HyperThreading (HTT) support + on &intel; CPUs that support this feature. A kernel with the + <literal>options SMP</literal> feature enabled will + automatically detect the additional logical processors. The + default &os; scheduler treats the logical processors the same + as additional physical processors; in other words, no attempt + is made to optimize scheduling decisions given the shared + resources between logical processors within the same CPU. + Because this naive scheduling can result in suboptimal + performance, under certain circumstances it may be useful to + disable the logical processors with the + <varname>machdep.hyperthreading_allowed</varname> tunable. + The &man.smp.4; manual page has more details.</para> + + <para>&os; will take advantage of Physical Address Extensions + (PAE) support on CPUs that support this feature. A kernel + with the <literal>PAE</literal> feature enabled will detect + memory above 4 gigabytes and allow it to be used by the + system. This feature places constraints on the device drivers + and other features of &os; which may be used; consult the + &man.pae.4; manpage for more details.</para> + + <para>&os; will generally run on i386-based laptops, albeit with + varying levels of support for certain hardware features such + as sound, graphics, power management, and PCCARD expansion + slots. These features tend to vary in idiosyncratic ways + between machines, and frequently require special-case support + in &os; to work around hardware bugs or other oddities. When + in doubt, a search of the archives of the &a.mobile; may be + useful.</para> + + <para>Most modern laptops (as well as many desktops) use the + Advanced Configuration and Power Management (ACPI) standard. + &os; supports ACPI via the ACPI Component Architecture + reference implementation from &intel;, as described in the + &man.acpi.4; manual page. The use of ACPI causes + instabilities on some machines and it may be necessary to + disable the ACPI driver, which is normally loaded via a kernel + module. This may be accomplished by adding the following line + to <filename>/boot/device.hints</filename>:</para> + + <programlisting>hint.acpi.0.disabled="1"</programlisting> + + <para>Users debugging ACPI-related problems may find it useful + to disable portions of the ACPI functionality. The + &man.acpi.4; manual page has more information on how to do + this via loader tunables.</para> + + <para>ACPI depends on a Differentiated System Descriptor Table + (DSDT) provided by each machine's BIOS. Some machines have + bad or incomplete DSDTs, which prevents ACPI from functioning + correctly. Replacement DSDTs for some machines can be found + at the <ulink + url="http://acpi.sourceforge.net/dsdt/index.php">DSDT</ulink> + section of the <ulink + url="http://acpi.sourceforge.net/">ACPI4Linux</ulink> project + Web site. &os; can use these DSDTs to override the DSDT + provided by the BIOS; see the &man.acpi.4; manual page for + more information.</para> + </sect2> + + <sect2 id="proc-ia64"> + <title>ia64</title> + + <para>Currently supported processors are the <ulink + url="http://people.freebsd.org/~marcel/refs/ia64/itanium/24532003.pdf">&itanium;</ulink> + and the <ulink + url="http://people.freebsd.org/~marcel/refs/ia64/itanium2/25111003.pdf">&itanium; + 2</ulink>.</para> + + <para>Supported chipsets include:</para> + + <itemizedlist> + <listitem> + <para>HP zx1</para> + </listitem> + + <listitem> + <para>&intel; 460GX</para> + </listitem> + + <listitem> + <para>&intel; E8870</para> + </listitem> + </itemizedlist> + + <para>Both Uniprocessor (UP) and Symmetric Multi-processor (SMP) + configurations are supported.</para> + + <para>Most devices that can be found in or are compatible with + &arch.ia64; machines are fully supported.
