This allows us to - test those more recent instruction sets (AVX, AVX2, BMI1, BMI2, F16C, FMA, LZCNT, MOVBE, XSAVE) - benefit from improved performance across the stack both in kvm-driven system emulation and when running on real silicon. For example, glibc: https://www.phoronix.com/news/Glibc-strcasecmp-AVX2-EVEX v4 level is adding AVX-512, which is far less established, particularly Intel has famously backtracked from supporting it in Alder Lake/Raport Lake client CPUs and AMD has only implemented it in very recent Zen4 products: https://www.phoronix.com/news/GCC-11-x86-64-Feature-Levels Signed-off-by: Alexander Kanavin <alex@linutronix.de> --- meta/conf/machine/include/x86/qemuboot-x86.inc | 4 ++-- meta/conf/machine/qemux86-64.conf | 4 ++-- 2 files changed, 4 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-)
