+
+<p>This document contains the hardware compatibility notes for FreeBSD 9.1-RELEASE. It
+lists the hardware platforms supported by FreeBSD, as well as the various types of
+hardware devices (storage controllers, network interfaces, and so on), along with known
+working instances of these devices.</p>

+<h2 class="SECT1"><a id="PROC" name="PROC">2 Supported Processors and System
+Boards</a></h2>
+
+<p>This section provides some architecture-specific information about the specific
+processors and systems that are supported by each architecture.</p>
+
+<div class="SECT2">
+<hr />
+<h3 class="SECT2"><a id="PROC-AMD64" name="PROC-AMD64">2.1 amd64</a></h3>
+
+<p>Since mid-2003 FreeBSD/amd64 has supported the AMD64 (“Hammer”) and
+<span class="TRADEMARK">Intel</span>® EM64T architecture, and is now one of the
+Tier-1 platforms (fully supported architecture), which are expected to be Production
+Quality with respects to all aspects of the FreeBSD operating system, including
+installation and development environments.</p>
+
+<p>Note that there are two names for this architecture, AMD64 (AMD) and Intel EM64T
+(Extended Memory 64-bit Technology). 64-bit mode of the two architectures are almost
+compatible with each other, and FreeBSD/amd64 should support them both.</p>
+
+<p>As of this writing, the following processors are supported:</p>
+
+<ul>
+<li>
+<p><span class="TRADEMARK">AMD Athlon</span>™64
+(“Clawhammer”).</p>
+</li>
+
+<li>
+<p><span class="TRADEMARK">AMD Opteron</span>™
+(“Sledgehammer”).</p>
+</li>
+
+<li>
+<p>All multi-core <span class="TRADEMARK">Intel</span> <span
+class="TRADEMARK">Xeon</span>™ processors except Sossaman have EM64T
+support.</p>
+</li>
+
+<li>
+<p>The single-core <span class="TRADEMARK">Intel</span> <span
+class="TRADEMARK">Xeon</span> processors “Nocona”, “Irwindale”,
+ “Potomac”, and “Cranford” have EM64T support.</p>
+</li>
+
+<li>
+<p>All <span class="TRADEMARK">Intel</span> Core 2 (not Core Duo) and later
+processors</p>
+</li>
+
+<li>
+<p>All <span class="TRADEMARK">Intel</span> <span class="TRADEMARK">Pentium</span>® D
+processors</p>
+</li>
+
+<li>
+<p><span class="TRADEMARK">Intel</span> <span class="TRADEMARK">Pentium</span> 4s and
+Celeron Ds using the “Cedar Mill” core have EM64T support.</p>
+</li>
+
+<li>
+<p>Some <span class="TRADEMARK">Intel</span> <span class="TRADEMARK">Pentium</span> 4s
+and Celeron Ds using the “Prescott” core have EM64T support. See
+the <a href="http://processorfinder.intel.com" target="_top">Intel Processor Spec
+Finder</a> for the definitive answer about EM64T support in Intel processors.</p>
+</li>
+</ul>
+
+<p><span class="TRADEMARK">Intel</span> EM64T is an extended version of IA-32 (x86) and
+ different from <span class="TRADEMARK">Intel</span> IA-64 (Itanium) architecture,
+which FreeBSD/ia64 supports. Some <span class="TRADEMARK">Intel</span>'s old
+documentation refers to <span class="TRADEMARK">Intel</span> EM64T as “64-bit
+extension technology” or “IA-32e”.</p>
+
+<p>The largest tested memory configuration to date is 64GB. SMP support has been
+recently completed and is reasonably robust.</p>
+
+<p>In many respects, FreeBSD/amd64 is similar to FreeBSD/i386, in terms of drivers
+supported. There may be some issues with 64-bit cleanliness in some (particularly
+ older) drivers. Generally, drivers that already function correctly on other
+64-bit platforms should work.</p>
+
+<p>FreeBSD/amd64 is a very young platform on FreeBSD. While the core FreeBSD kernel
+and base system components are generally fairly robust, there are likely to still be
+rough edges, particularly with third party packages.</p>
+</div>
+
+<div class="SECT2">
+<hr />
+<h3 class="SECT2"><a id="PROC-I386" name="PROC-I386">2.2 i386</a></h3>
+
+<p>FreeBSD/i386 runs on a wide variety of “IBM PC compatible” machines.
+Due to the wide range of hardware available for this architecture, it is impossible
+ to exhaustively list all combinations of equipment supported by FreeBSD.
+Nevertheless, some general guidelines are presented here.</p>
+
+<p>Almost all <span class="TRADEMARK">i386</span>™-compatible processors with a
+floating point unit are supported. All <span class="TRADEMARK">Intel</span>
+processors beginning with the 80486 are supported, including the 80486, <span
+class="TRADEMARK">Pentium</span>, <span class="TRADEMARK">Pentium</span> Pro, <span
+class="TRADEMARK">Pentium</span> II, <span class="TRADEMARK">Pentium</span> III, <span
+class="TRADEMARK">Pentium</span> 4, and variants thereof, such as the <span
+class="TRADEMARK">Xeon</span> and <span class="TRADEMARK">Celeron</span>® processors.
+ All <span class="TRADEMARK">i386</span>-compatible AMD processors are also
+supported, including the <span class="TRADEMARK">Am486</span>®, <span
+class="TRADEMARK">Am5x86</span>®, K5, <span class="TRADEMARK">AMD-K6</span>® (and
+variants), <span class="TRADEMARK">AMD Athlon</span> (including Athlon-MP,
+Athlon-XP, Athlon-4, and Athlon Thunderbird), and <span
+class="TRADEMARK">AMD Duron</span>™ processors. The AMD Élan SC520
+embedded processor is supported. The Transmeta Crusoe is recognized and supported,
+as are <span class="TRADEMARK">i386</span>-compatible processors from Cyrix and
+NexGen.</p>
+
+<p>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
+(“MicroChannel”) expansion bus used in the IBM PS/2 line of PCs.</p>
+
+<p>Symmetric multi-processor (SMP) systems are generally supported by FreeBSD,
+although in some cases, BIOS or motherboard bugs may generate some problems. Perusal
+of the archives of the <a
+href="http://lists.FreeBSD.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-smp" target="_top">FreeBSD
+symmetric multiprocessing mailing list</a> may yield some clues.</p>
+
+<p>FreeBSD will take advantage of HyperThreading (HTT) support on <span
+class="TRADEMARK">Intel</span> CPUs that support this feature. A kernel with the <tt
+class="LITERAL">options SMP</tt> feature enabled will automatically detect the
+additional logical processors. The default FreeBSD 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 <code
+class="VARNAME">machdep.hyperthreading_allowed</code> tunable. The <a
+href="http://www.FreeBSD.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=smp&sektion=4&manpath=FreeBSD+9.1-RELEASE">
+<span class="CITEREFENTRY"><span class="REFENTRYTITLE">smp</span>(4)</span></a> manual
+page has more details.</p>
+
+<p>FreeBSD will take advantage of Physical Address Extensions (PAE) support on CPUs
+that support this feature. A kernel with the <tt class="LITERAL">PAE</tt> 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 FreeBSD which may be used; consult the <a
+href="http://www.FreeBSD.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=pae&sektion=4&manpath=FreeBSD+9.1-RELEASE">
+<span class="CITEREFENTRY"><span class="REFENTRYTITLE">pae</span>(4)</span></a> manpage
+for more details.</p>
+
+<p>FreeBSD 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 FreeBSD to
+work around hardware bugs or other oddities. When in doubt, a search of the archives
+of the <a href="http://lists.FreeBSD.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-mobile"
+target="_top">FreeBSD laptop computer mailing list</a> may be useful.</p>
+
+<p>Most modern laptops (as well as many desktops) use the Advanced Configuration and
+Power Management (ACPI) standard. FreeBSD supports ACPI via the ACPI Component
+Architecture reference implementation from <span class="TRADEMARK">Intel</span>, as
+described in the <a
+href="http://www.FreeBSD.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=acpi&sektion=4&manpath=FreeBSD+9.1-RELEASE">
+<span class="CITEREFENTRY"><span class="REFENTRYTITLE">acpi</span>(4)</span></a> 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 <tt
+class="FILENAME">/boot/device.hints</tt>:</p>
+
+<pre class="PROGRAMLISTING">
+hint.acpi.0.disabled="1"
+</pre>
+
+<p>Users debugging ACPI-related problems may find it useful to disable portions of
+the ACPI functionality. The <a
+href="http://www.FreeBSD.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=acpi&sektion=4&manpath=FreeBSD+9.1-RELEASE">
+<span class="CITEREFENTRY"><span class="REFENTRYTITLE">acpi</span>(4)</span></a> manual
+page has more information on how to do this via loader tunables.</p>
+
+<p>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
+<a href="http://acpi.sourceforge.net/dsdt/index.php" target="_top">DSDT</a> section
+of the <a href="http://acpi.sourceforge.net/" target="_top">ACPI4Linux</a> project
+ Web site. FreeBSD can use these DSDTs to override the DSDT provided by the
+BIOS; see the <a
+href="http://www.FreeBSD.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=acpi&sektion=4&manpath=FreeBSD+9.1-RELEASE">
