<h3><a name="intro">Introduction</a></h3>
<p>This page contains information about the FreeBSD port to Fujitsu's
SPARC64&reg; and Oracle's UltraSPARC&reg; architectures.
Discussion of this port takes
place on the
<a href="http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-sparc64">freebsd-sparc</a>
mailing list.</p>

<h3><a name="status">Status</a></h3>
<p>UltraSPARC is a
<a href="&base;/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/articles/committers-guide/archs.html">
Tier 2</a> architecture, and as such is not fully supported by the
<a href="&base;">FreeBSD</a> project. Although fully functional, the port
is not as feature-complete as the i386 or amd64 ports.</p>
<h3><a name="hw">Hardware List</a></h3>
<p>A summary of supported systems follows. SMP is supported on all supported
systems that contain more than 1 processor. For full details, please see
the
<a href="&base;/releases/&rel.current;R/hardware.html">
hardware notes</a> of the <a href="&base;/releases/">
release</a> you are using.</p>

<p>These systems are partially supported by FreeBSD. In particular,
the fibre channel controllers in SBus-based systems are not
supported. However, it is possible to use these with a SCSI controller
supported by the esp(4) driver (Sun ESP SCSI, Sun FAS Fast-SCSI
and Sun FAS366 Fast-Wide SCSI controllers).</p>
