NetBSD/amd64
About NetBSD/amd64
NetBSD/amd64 is a port to the AMD64 family of processors; it
supports CPUs that implement the 64-bit x86
architecture. This covers all recent AMD and Intel models.
NetBSD/amd64 is a true 64bit operating system. Running
32-bit NetBSD/i386 binaries is supported as well; see
compat_netbsd32(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.
