The problem is not the stability of Haswell support, but more the regressions on already supported GPUs. Currently, there is one big regression: https://github.com/freebsd/freebsd-base-graphics/issues/2 It takes seconds to panic a Sandybridge or Haswell (so I suppose Ivy Bridge is impacted too). Once this is fixed (and so far my attempts failed), I believe the patch can go in -CURRENT. Haswell support won't be rock solid but anyway, Linux 3.8, the base we use, had only initial support. Many bugfixes came in Linux 3.9 and 3.10. Hopefully, we'll get there more quickly. --=20 Jean-S=E9bastien P=E9dron --woj6GWTor3hCcin9gCCwCRWscKw9JAQJb Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 iQJ8BAEBCgBmBQJWzZasXxSAAAAAAC4AKGlzc3Vlci1mcHJAbm90YXRpb25zLm9w ZW5wZ3AuZmlmdGhob3JzZW1hbi5uZXQ2NzA4N0ZEMUFFQUUwRTEyREJDNkE2RjAz OUU5OTc2MUE1RkQ5NENDAAoJEDnpl2Gl/ZTMxxMP/1Cde7EE7z3W6qGEzoP9TGTQ o5Juuef2iJywltqwxrAAXsYXHP9Lremi8HmjIWbQfQ+qFh24c6jYu/jBM344D4S2 7Yr5aQV2dQJuelGRniD9uMRuy2crH0t4jkuOnx3p4gOKV0DVrHie+Oyetx5q7p53 Tx9DM75M7sEV1wUcJfL7QmwN0i8xc469mykH4KIu9HYywyMEW+uycnRHtZ2O97EU mXcVea/YU8PLhBuVVNZ2DUeWb55iJaJdr3RNHVQSNrgwDWI76HW1ZxuUFw1818SU IBnflMM8OlgCPipbgdfK6H/unQv2GvI4HDoNX7EGYgs9/YMm91yOFb36RAOqA2T8 oQqBTv7TbDix3m/LjaTnf+afj2BLiVxWll8LsdiZVdMOxTYkEuKyXV5QJh4dG0r0 mP2peLtC+9pijPrgZ2lmt7JYKTkxBGRkrWi522D8B2/k4jzQaTsMw0DuPAAQovdw MGw0f8Skflr3HkFWuYjmH1kf8xe3nLUd7cV/HiD67UF2oTKd3uv1cQbeyXaqTFz/ 3f6SCXXi+TxXCGZu/t4xKNfoHy3GzWgABw/rBxyJtKsjpx0Id+r2slK/mN04CWXG 6VsPWrO95y/pO2nZlIEc3Sf/RsCsESxI/R/UdcQOoTw7nSMvUR6EfaqG2IwVdM7Q WNnMGGvDrb99ZyiiTqq1 =FxKG -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --woj6GWTor3hCcin9gCCwCRWscKw9JAQJb--
