Subject: [RFC] [PATCH] arch: x86: change GCC optimisation target from atom to bonnell
Date: Mon, 10 Oct 2016 22:45:38 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20161010214538.8824-1-rsalvaterra@gmail.com> (raw)
Hi, Thomas, Ingo, Peter,
(Sending as RFC, since I don't know if this patch is acceptable.)
The GCC team has deprecated atom as a march/mtune target since almost three
years ago, according to this mailing list thread [1], in favour of specific
microarchitecture names (bonnell, silvermont). This patch changes the Atom
optimisation target in the kernel to bonnell, as it was originally intended.
Tested on an x86-64 Atom 330 machine. No functional changes.
