|

| 145 | The SandyBridge New Acceleration (SNA) code is intended to replace the
|
---|
| 146 | old UXA (UMA Acceleration Architecture), but it is a large body of code
|
---|
| 147 | and sometimes causes problems. In particular, when a system is built
|
---|
| 148 | with gcc-5 and kernel headers from linux-4.0, trying to run this driver
|
---|
[3c39513] | 149 | using SNA has been known to segfault on some of the supported chips.
|
---|
| 150 | However, the version of the code in the version control system listed
|
---|
| 151 | above has been tested successfully with both SNA and UXA capabilities.

[3c39513] | 155 | To work around this problem, as well as enabling support for UXA, it is

| 156 | necessary to force UXA to be used by creating a configuration file. If
|
---|
