Extended Description

Compiling with --march=native on one of my machines (a core 2 era Pentium Dual-Core) misidentifies the chip as penryn instead of core2 (the proper -march flag for this CPU)

Here's the output of gcc and clang for comparison, as well as /proc/cpuinfo for reference.

Some low-end penryns have SSE4 disabled. I fixed LLVM to check for SSE4.1 and detect those chips as core2 if it's missing in r187350.

llvmbot commented 11 years ago

Let me correct myself then, since I've been gotcha'd: your compiler is wrong about what my chip can do.

I did some more poking around, and code fails horribly with illegal instruction calls on -march=native and -march=penryn, but setting -mno-sse4.2 fixes the issue. So it seems like -march=penryn is wrongly set to believe that sse4.2 exists.

Correcting my correcting myself: -mno-sse4 is fine, -mno-sse4.2 isn't. I don't know what's up with that, since technically (based off of documentation) my chip SHOULD support sse4.1. It just apparently doesn't.

Actually, your CPU is of the Penryn architecture. Please refer to:

and:

Apparently gcc just shows this as "core2", see line 661 in this file:
