Athlons don't need any special support, they are fully compatible with Intel's latest processors. > (I can't find anything in the latest versions of sys/i386/i386/identcpu.c) The identification for AMD processors models that can report their name using cpuid is redundant, even for cpus that are currently listed there. I don't know whether this is intentional. It seems that currently, the policy of identcpu.c is to prefer the cpuid string, so the patch in pr i386/14440 should be a no-op.
