The naming follows the -convention of intel-<TUNE>-<BITS>, where TUNE is the gcc cpu-type (used -with mtune and march typically) and BITS is either 32 bit or 64 bit. - -intel-core2-32 -This BSP is optimized for the Core2 family of CPUs as well as all Atom -CPUs prior to the Silvermont core. - -intel-corei7-64 -This BSP is optimized for Nehalem and later Core and Xeon CPUs as well -as Silvermont and later Atom CPUs, such as the Baytrail SoCs. - -These BSPs use what we call the intel-common Linux kernel package -architecture. This includes core2-32-intel-common and -corei7-64-intel-common. These kernel packages can also be used by any of -the BSPs in meta-intel that choose to include the -intel-common-pkgarch.inc file. To minimize the proliferation of vendor -trees, reduce the sources we must support, and consolidate QA efforts, -all BSP maintainers are encouraged to make use of the intel-common Linux -kernel package architecture. - -Of the BSPs presently included in meta-intel, the following have passed -initial testing with the intel-common BSPs (rather than the named BSP): - -For intel-corei7-64: - crystalforest-server - crystalforest-gladden - haswell-wc - nuc (Ivy Bridge and Haswell, manual audio config required) - sugarbay - -For intel-core2-32: - <currently under test> - -If you are interested in a BSP not listed here, chances are we are -currently working on resolving some configuration issues with it.
