Subject: [dpdk-dev] [PATCH] mk: gcc -march support for intel processors code names
Date: Mon, 15 Aug 2016 16:02:08 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1471273328-16390-1-git-send-email-reshma.pattan@intel.com> (raw)
The GCC 4.9 -march option supports the intel code names for processors,
for example -march=silvermont, -march=broadwell.
The RTE_MACHINE config flag can be used to pass code name to
the compiler as -march flag. Also old gcc versions compatibility code
for the intel platform is removed from
mk/toolchain/gcc/rte.toolchain-compat.mk
Release notes is updated.
