All IO interfaces are up and running, including SATA, USB, 10/40GbE along all decent features, like MSI-x, ITS. Regarding stability, we were doing a lot of stress tests (disk subsystem, network performance, HTTP/HTTPS servers, compilation) and haven't seen any kernel crashes for a long time. Dual socket is still in experimental phase and should be considered officially unsupported. There are few patches that enable 2S in non-NUMA-aware configuration on the Phabricator, but I doubt they can be applied directly after recent changes in pmap (4-level pagetables + DMAP).
