In config file, it is possible to select machine type, via "CONFIG_RTE_MACHINE=" config option. If it is "native", it will use all available CPU features host machine supports. For portability there is also "default" machine type, which will build for "corei7", this should work for your case. You can check available machine types at: 'mk/machine/*'
