- NetBSD/amd64 is a port to the AMD64 family of processors and
- supports all other CPUs that implement the 64bit AMD64
- architecture. These currently include AMD Opteron, AMD Athlon64,
- and Intel CPUs with the EM64T extension.
-
- NetBSD/amd64 is a true 64bit operating system. Running
- 32bit NetBSD/i386 binaries is supported as well, see
- compat_netbsd32(8). Running 32bit Linux emulations will
- be available in the future, the setup will be similar to
- the one described in compat_svr4_32(8).
-
- The port was first committed to the NetBSD source tree as NetBSD/x86_64
- on June 19th, 2001 and renamed to NetBSD/amd64 on April 26th, 2003.
-
- The original work to do this port was done by Frank van der Linden at
- Wasabi Systems, assisted by
- AMD, who provided the simulator
- (Simics VirtuHammer), pre-release hardware and access to a range
- of Opteron hardware through the
- AMD Developer Center.
-
- The port is fully functional. It has been tested on single-CPU and
- multiprocessor (SMP) Opteron configurations. Since the release of NetBSD 2.0,
- it is a completely supported platform.
