Intel m7-6Y75 misses AVX512 #24

Closed bmario closed 5 years ago

bmario commented 5 years ago

While this processor is a SkyLake, it only supports the following vector extensions

Intel® SSE4.1, Intel® SSE4.2, Intel® AVX2

But the code_generator uses the AVX512_functions.c file.

The code-generator creates a binary that is not microarchitecture-specific. The decision, which function will be executed is made at runtime. Therefore, this is expected behavior. However, the README might list the prerequsites (Python version, C compiler that supports AVX-512, ...).
