So far we see a regression on one of eembc_1_1 test because of following change:
/* X86_TUNE_USE_VECTOR_FP_CONVERTS: Prefer vector packed SSE conversion from FP to FP. */ - m_CORE2I7 | m_AMDFAM10 | m_GENERIC, + m_AMDFAM10 | m_GENERIC, Probably we should keep it as is while there is nothing about it in docs indeed...

Are you sure about Atom having stack engine, too? Related thing is accumulate_outgoing_args. Igor is testing it on Core and I will give it a try on K10. Honza I am attaching the changes for core costs I made if someone is interested in testing them. If we can declare P4/PPRo and maybe K8 chips obsolette for generic, there is room for improvement in generic, too. Like using inc/dec again.
