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. -- Jean-Sébastien Pédron
