| __NOTITLE__
| |
| This page provides an overview of Funtoo Linux sub-architectures (also called ''subarches'',) designed for quick and easy reference. While this information is available in other places, such as Wikipedia, it often takes some time to study and cross-reference the various articles to get a good understanding of each type of sub-architecture, and this information generally isn't all collected neatly in one place. That is the purpose of this page. When possible, links to more detailed Wikipedia pages are provided. You are encouraged to help maintain this page as well as the Wikipedia articles referenced here.

| == AMD Processors ==
| |
| | |
| === amd64-bulldozer ===
| |
| | |
| The '''amd64-bulldozer''' subarch supports the [[Wikipedia:Bulldozer (microarchitecture)|AMD bulldozer microarchitecture]], which were released from late 2011 through the first quarter of 2012 as a replacement for the [[Wikipedia:AMD10h|K10 microarchitecture]].
| |
| Bulldozer CPUs use the [[Wikipedia:Socket_AM3+|AM3+ socket]] and [[Wikipedia:Socket_G34|G34 socket]] for server CPUs.
| |
| | |
| Desktop bulldozer CPUs include the '''[[Wikipedia:List_of_AMD_FX_microprocessors#.22Zambezi.22_.2832_nm_SOI.29|Zambezi FX-series CPUs]]'''. Server bulldozer CPUs include '''Zurich''' (Opteron 3200-series), '''Valencia''' (Opteron 4200-series) and '''Interlagos''' (Opteron 6200 series). [[Wikipedia:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Opteron#Opteron_.2832_nm_SOI.29-_First_Generation_Bulldozer_Microarchitecture|More information here.]].
| |
| | |
| === amd64-piledriver ===
| |
| | |
| The '''amd64-piledriver''' subarch supports the [[Wikipedia:Piledriver (microarchitecture)|AMD Piledriver microarchitecture]] produced by AMD from mid-2012 through 2015, which is the successor to the [[Wikipedia:Bulldozer (microarchitecture)|AMD bulldozer microarchitecture]].
| |
| Piledriver CPUs and APUs are available that use the [[Wikipedia:FM2 Socket|FM2 socket]]. Piledriver CPUs use the [[Wikipedia:Socket_AM3+|AM3+ socket]].
| |
| | |
| Desktop piledriver CPU and APUs include '''Vishera''' (FX-8350, FX-8370), '''[[Wikipedia:List_of_AMD_accelerated_processing_unit_microprocessors#Virgo:_.22Trinity.22_.282012.2C_32_nm.29|Trinity A-series APUs]]''' (A6-5400K, A10-5800K) and '''[[Wikipedia:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_AMD_accelerated_processing_unit_microprocessors#.22Richland.22_.282013.2C_32_nm.29_2|Richland A-series APUs]]'''.
| |
| | |
| Server piledriver CPUs include '''Delhi''' (Opteron 3300-series), '''Seoul''' (Opteron 4300-series) and '''Abu Dhabi''' (Opteron 6300-series). [[Wikipedia:Opteron#Opteron_.2832_nm_SOI.29_-_Piledriver_Microarchitecture|More information here]].
| |
| | |
| Piledriver adds several new instructions over bulldozer, so AMD bulldozer systems cannot run amd64-piledriver-optimized stages. However, this subarch is instruction-compatible with its successor, the, so amd64-piledriver stages can run on amd64-steamroller systems, and vice versa.
| |
| | |
| === amd64-steamroller ===
| |
| | |
| The '''amd64-steamroller''' subarch supports the [[Wikipedia:Steamroller (microarchitecture)|AMD steamroller microarchitecture]], produced from early 2014. It is the successor to the [[Wikipedia:Piledriver (microarchitecture)|AMD Piledriver microarchitecture]].
| |
| Steamroller APUs are available that use the [[Wikipedia:FM2+ Socket|FM2+ socket]] and [[Wikipedia:Socket_FP3|FP3 socket]] (mobile.)
| |
| | |
| Desktop steamroller APUs include the '''[[Wikipedia:AMD_Accelerated_Processing_Unit#Steamroller_architecture_.282014.29:_Kaveri|Kaveri A-Series APUs]]''', such as the quad-core AMD A10-7850K APU. Steamroller APUs are also available in mobile versions. Server steamroller APUs include the '''Berlin APUs''', which are not yet released.
| |
| | |
| Amd64-steamroller subarches are instruction-compatible with amd64-piledriver, but add new instructions over amd64-bulldozer.
| |
| | |
| === amd64-jaguar ===
| |
| | |
| The '''amd64-jaguar''' (also called AMD Family 16h) subarch supports the [[Wikipedia:Jaguar (microarchitecture)|AMD jaguar microarchitecture]], which is targeted at low-power devices, including notebooks, tablets and small form-factor desktops and servers. It is perhaps most well-known for being the microarchitecture used for the [[Wikipedia:Playstation 4|Playstation 4]] and [[Wikipedia:Xbox One|Xbox One]], which each use custom 8-core Jaguar APUs.
| |
| Socketed Jaguar APUs use the [[Wikipedia:AM1 Socket|AM1 socket]] and [[Wikipedia:Socket_FT3|FT3 socket]] (mobile.) G-series [[Wikipedia:System_on_a_chip|"system on a chip" (SoC)]] APUs are available for non-socketed devices such as tablets and embedded system boards.
| |
| | |
| Desktop Jaguar APUs include the '''[[Wikipedia:List_of_AMD_accelerated_processing_unit_microprocessors#.22Kabini.22.2C_.22Temash.22_.282013.2C_28_nm.29|Kabini A-series APUs and Temash E-series APUs]]''', Athlon 5150 and 5350 APUs, and Sempron 2650 and 3850.
| |
| | |
| Amd64-jaguar subarches use the MOVBE instruction which is not available on amd64-bulldozer, amd64-piledriver or amd64-steamroller. They are thus not instruction-compatible with any of these subarches.
