I did not look further to see if this was intentional or result of a typo. TBH I'm not even sure if it would be possible to deduct this from the code. Also, all the CPUs I have looked at bring all these 5 instruction sets together, but we know this might not hold true in the future as each one of them has an independent CPUID flag. cc_avx512_flags = ['-mavx512f', '-mavx512vl', '-mavx512dq', '-mavx512bw'] My choice was to keep the flags that were used initially, but I can change that if the maintainers tell me this was a mistake.
