Requiring a new x86 cpuflag to identify this ISA presence is ok.
But here, I am talking about the generic power instrinsic API.
Let me phrase my comment differently...
As described in the API:
uint32_t power_monitor : 1;
/**< indicates support for rte_power_monitor function */
Does AMD thing behave completely different from the x86?
Looking at patch 3, I understand this is not the case.
So we don't need a "amd" flag in the generic flags.
The indirection for calling the right ISA should be hidden in
rte_power_* helpers implemented for x86.
