dnl $OpenBSD: hardware,v 1.80 2002/04/09 00:23:47 miod Exp $
OpenBSD/MACHINE OSREV works across a broad range of standard PC's and
clones, with a wide variety of processors and I/O bus architectures. It
can be expected to install and run with minimal difficulties on most
current products. The cases where problems may be encountered are
typically older proprietary PC's, Laptops or specialized server boxes
that rely on a custom BIOS to paper over implementation differences.
OpenBSD does not currently support multiple processors (SMP), but will
run using one processor on a multi-processor system board.
The minimal configuration to install the system is 6M or 8M of RAM and
perhaps 60M of disk space. A custom kernel might be able to run
with only 4MB, though we do not know of anyone running with a system
quite this minimal today. To install the entire system requires
much more disk space, and to run X or compile the system, more RAM
is recommended. (8M of RAM will actually allow you to run X and/or
compile but it won't be speedy. Note that until you have around 16M
of RAM, getting more RAM is more important than getting a faster CPU.)
Supported hardware {:-include-:}:
Processors
All CPU chips compatible with the Intel 80386 (MACHINE)
architecture:
386/486 (SX/DX/DX2/DX4)
Intel Pentium/Pentium-MMX
Intel Pentium Pro/II/III/Celeron/Xeon
Intel Pentium IV
AMD 6x86
AMD K5/K6/K6-2/K6-3
AMD Athlon/Duron
Cyrix MediaGX/M1/M2
VIA Cyrix III
Rise mP6
IDT WinChip
NexGen 586
NS Geode GX1
Transmeta TMS3200, TMS5400, TMS5600
Everything that is a clone of the 386 or up should work
fine. The only CPU that is known to work poorly (due to
flawed motherboards designs) is the Cyrix 386DLC.
Buses
All standard ISA, EISA, VLB, and PCI bus based machines,
including:
Intel 450GX/KX based machines
Intel 450NX based machines
ServerWorks chipset-based machines
(We just had to mention those last three, since
they are the hardest to support)
Both 16-bit PCMCIA Cards and newer 32-bit CardBus
support
Universal Serial Bus (USB)
The MCA bus found in various IBM PS/2 machines is not
supported.
Bus Interfaces
Standard PCI-PCI bridges, including PCI expansion
backplanes
YENTA-compatible PCI-CardBus bridges
Entropy Sources
Interrupt latency collection from many devices
Intel 82802 random number generator found on i810, i815,
i820, i840, i850 and i860 based systems.
Disk Controllers
Floppy controllers.
ISA MFM, ESDI, IDE, and RLL hard disk controllers.
PCI IDE Controllers
Acard ATP850, ATP860
Acer Labs M5229
Advanced Micro Devices 756, 766
CMD Tech PCI0640, PCI0643, PCI0646, PCI0648, and PCI0649
Contaq Microsytems/Cypress CY82C693
HighPoint HPT366, HPT370
Intel PIIX, PIIX3, and PIIX4
Intel 82801 (ICH/ICH0/ICH2)
OPTi 82c568, 82d568, and 82c621
Promise PDC20246, PDC20262, PDC20265/7/8 (but the Promise
RAID mode is not supported)
Silicon Integrated Systems 5513 (5597/5598)
VIA Technologies VT82C586[AB], VT82C596A/B, VT82C686A/B
(Other PCI IDE-compliant controllers should work, but
those not listed above may not be capable of DMA modes)

Adaptec AIC-6260 and AIC-6360 based boards, including:
the Adaptec AHA-152x and the SoundBlaster SCSI
host adapter. (Note that you cannot boot from
these boards if they do not have a boot ROM;
only the AHA-152x and motherboards using this chip
are likely to be bootable, consequently.)
Adaptec AIC-7770-based boards, including the Adaptec
AHA-274x and AHA-284x families)

Drivers for hardware marked with "[*]" are NOT included on the
distribution floppies. Except as noted above, all other drivers are
present on install floppy. Also, at the present time, the
distributed kernels support only one SCSI host adapter per machine.
OpenBSD normally allows more, though, so if you have more than one, you
can use all of them by compiling a custom kernel once OpenBSD is
installed.
Support for devices marked with "[+]" IS included in the "generic" kernels,
although it is not in the kernel on the installation floppy.
Hardware the we do NOT currently support, but get many questions
about:
The "Micro Channel" MCA bus used in many IBM PS/2 models
NCR 5380-based and 53400-based SCSI host adapters
QIC-40 and QIC-80 tape drives (these are the tape drives
that connect to the floppy disk controller)
Multiprocessor motherboards (though they will run fine using
one processor only)
Sony and Panasonic proprietary CD-ROM interfaces
Parallel-port ZIP drives (SCSI and ATAPI ZIP drives work fine)
Intel i82556 (EtherExpress PRO/100A) and i82596 (EtherExpress
PRO/10 PCI) Ethernet adapters
Hewlett-Packard PC-LAN+ (HP27xxx) Ethernet adapters
Aureal Vortex sound cards
Winmodems
Infrared devices, such as commonly found on laptops
Firewire
Mylex and Intel RAID controllers
PCMCIA:
Memory cards
Most multifunction cards
We are planning future support for many of these devices.
To be detected by the distributed kernels, some devices must
be configured with specific settings. Here's their list:

PCI ethernet boards need to have an interrupt, either assigned in your
PCI BIOS, or autoconfigured.
Hardware not listed in the above table doesn't need any specific
configuration.
Special care for SMC Elite Ultra:
The Elite Ultra is very sensitive to how its I/O port is treated.
Mistreating it can cause a number of effects -- everything from
the card not responding when the kernel probes, or the soft
configuration being corrupted or wiped completely.
By default, the kernel ships with device we1 configured for the
'default' Elite Ultra locations, comprising of port 0x300, irq 10,
and memory location 0xcc000. This matches a hard coded jumper on
the board as well a common soft config setting.
Unfortunately, the kernel's autoconfiguration process (specifically,
some of the devices it probes for) cause conflicts with the SMC
Elite Ultra, and very often cause it to lose its configuration and
fail its own probe. If this happens, you must boot the computer
into DOS, and run the EzSetup program from SMC (if you do not have
a copy on the floppy accompanying your board, you can download it
from ftp://ftp.darmstadt.gmd.de/pub/pc/hardware/nic/smc/gez122.exe -
it is not available from SMC anymore). This program will allow you
to reconfigure and recover a card that has lost its configuration
with a minimum of hassle.
In order to avoid blowing away the card, one *must* use the
run-time kernel configuration system when booting the Install
kernel. This is done by giving the -c flag to the initial boot
request. Following the loading of the kernel, the user is
presented with a
UKC>
prompt. At this prompt, a variety of commands may be issued, but
the relevant one to getting the SMC Elite Ultra running is
'disable'. The wt0, el0, and ie1 devices all need to be disabled.
This is done by typing 'disable' followed by the name of the
device, i.e., 'disable wt0', and pressing return.
If, for some reason, your Elite Ultra is not configured at the
'default' location the kernel is expecting it, you may also use
the 'change' command in the UKC system to modify where the kernel
will look for it. Typing 'change we1' will allow you to modify
those settings. Note that running the card at an i/o port of
anything other then 0x300 at this point is not recommended, and is
beyond the scope of this document-- by doing so you risk other
device probes wreaking the havoc we are trying to avoid.
When all three extra devices are disabled and any changes made,
the 'quit' command will exit the UKC. The kernel should then
boot, and find your Elite Ultra on device we1.
Special care for PCI BIOS:
As all BIOS implementations and subsystems this one has bugs too.
Sometimes specifications are unclear about interfaces and/or data
validation.
These all cause our driver for PCI BIOS to misbehave in more or
less fatal ways, such as panics on pcibios0 configuration or pci
device attachments, or unconfigured pci devices due to irq and/or
I/O address misconfiguration.
Fast workaround
Boot by giving the -c flag to the initial boot request.
Following the loading of the kernel, the user is presented with a
UKC>
Then type the following commands:
UKC> change bios0
165 bios0 at mainbus0 bus -1 flags 0x0
change [n] y
bus [-1] ? <enter>
flags [0] ? 3
165 bios0 changed
165 bios0 at mainbus0 bus -1 flags 0x3
UKC> quit
This will disable the pcibios0 attachment.
Sometimes, especially when hangs occur on particular pci device
attachments, moving pci cards into a different slot helps.
Fixing for good
Try to gather dmesg output from the failing configuration, for
example by using serial console (see boot(8)) and send it to
<mickey@openbsd.org> along with descriptions of your hardware setup.
Alternatively, dig in the code and fix problems.
