Bug ID: 95660
Summary: get_intel_cpu in cpuinfo.c contains unnecessary check
for brand_id
Product: gcc
Version: unknown
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: target
Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org
Reporter: craig.topper at gmail dot com
Target Milestone: ---
Brand id or brand index was a feature that briefly existed in some Pentium III
and Pentium 4 CPUs. The code will only look at family/model if that field is 0.
I believe the CPUs that had brand_id would still have had valid family/model.
The brand_id just gives a marketing name for the CPU. I don't think any of the
CPUs that have a non-zero brand_id are supported by the switch that its
guarding. So this doesn't really matter its just extra code.
