A minor feature that also should be considered is if you have two clone
functions, one that calls the other, we should optimize the call to avoid using
the indirect call setup by ifunc.
I.e.
extern __attribute__((target_clones("default","avx","avx2"))) int
caller ();
extern __att

questions about the functionality of target_clone support.
Right now it looks like target_clone only generates the ifunc handler if there
is a call to the function in the object file. It does not generate the ifunc
handler
I'm in the middle of adding support for the target_clone attribute to the
PowerPC. At the moment, the x86_64/i386 port is the only port that supports
target_clone. I added the arm/s390 port maintainers to this query, because
those ports might also consider supporting target_clones in the future.
