Since the last status report, support for building &os; for + AArch64 (arm64) has been committed to Subversion. This has + initially been targeting qemu, with more hardware support + being added after review.

+ +

Support for ACPI, SMP, DTrace, and hwpmc has been + added. ACPI is able to enumerate devices and get to the + mountroot prompt. Further work is needed to get into + userland. SMP has been tested on qemu with two cores, and + work is under way to support SMP on hardware. The + hwpmc driver includes support for the Cortex-A53, + Cortex-A57, and Cortex-A72 cores from ARM.

Poudriere has been used with user-mode qemu to test building + packages. Over 14,000 ports were successfully built. A + number of issues have been found and fixed from this first + run. These fixes should unblock about 5,000 additional + ports.
