src/external/gpl3/gcc/dist/gcc/config/i386: driver-i386.c
Log Message:
If -march=native is specified, only enable AVX if the processor supports
it and the OS has enabled XGETBV for application use.
It might need to also check XCR0[2] (having executed XGETBV) to check that
the kernel actually supports saving the YMM registers, but I suspect the
kernel might defer setting that until the first fault.
See vol 1 section 13.5 of the Intel SDM (intel_x86_325462.pdf).
