	This kernel has been replaced by linux-libre-64 in libre in an attempt to unify all 64bit kernels made for 32bit rootfs. This has been tested on a Lenovo Thinkpad X200 running a fully free version of Coreboot 4.9 (no microcode or other nonfree binaries). The only regresion that I noticed is that beside having the following line in /etc/mkinitcpio.conf: MODULES=(i915 netconsole) The i915 driver seem to be loaded late in the boot process as I can only see notice a resolution change about when the rootfs is mounted and that init is started.

2018-12-23	Add kernels/linux-libre-x86_64	Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli
	With this kernel, on machines with an x86_64 compatible CPU, you can run an i686 userspace with an x86_64 kernel. This for instance enables to use the same i686 rootfs on computers with 32bit and 64bit CPUs, while still being able to take advantage of a 64bit kernel on the machines that supports it. The users will then need to force i686 in pacman.conf like that: [options] Architecture = i686 They will also need to select the right kernel at boot.
