On 2 different systems the gcc has support for -msse4.2, but the processor has not, and t5511 fails with "Illegal instruction". How can that be? The maintainer of a Linux distro wants to ship gcc with all possible features, an the end-user can compile the code with all the features his very processor has.
On the other hand, a pre-compiled package like e.g. Git is compiled into a binary package with all the latest features switched of, to be able to run the binary on as many different processor variants as possible. He already needs to make 3 binaries only for x86: - the minimum version is a 32 bit processor like 486/586/686. - a "medium" version for systems with 4GB RAM (or more) which have 32 bit processors with PAE (686-pae) - a version for x86_64 E.g. a maintainer wants to have SSE42 enabled, when he builds Git for his system, but disabled when he builds an RPM. The people compiling Git need to know what the binary is used for, how about using something like this in Makefile: ifdef HAVE_SSE42 BASIC_CFLAGS += -msse4.2 -DHAS_SSE42 +endif > ifdef OBJECT_CREATION_USES_RENAMES > COMPAT_CFLAGS += -DOBJECT_CREATION_MODE=1 > endif > @@ -2199,6 +2204,7 @@ GIT-BUILD-OPTIONS: FORCE > @echo NO_PERL=\''$(subst ','\'',$(subst ','\'',$(NO_PERL)))'\' >>$@ > @echo NO_PYTHON=\''$(subst ','\'',$(subst ','\'',$(NO_PYTHON)))'\' >>$@ > @echo NO_UNIX_SOCKETS=\''$(subst ','\'',$(subst > ','\'',$(NO_UNIX_SOCKETS)))'\' >>$@ > + @echo NO_SSE42=\''$(subst ','\'',$(subst ','\'',$(NO_SSE42)))'\' >>$@ Same here: Use HAVE_SSE42 rather than NO_SSE42 > diff --git a/aclocal.m4 b/aclocal.m4 > index f11bc7e..d9f3f19 100644 > --- a/aclocal.m4 > +++ b/aclocal.m4 > @@ -38,3 +38,9 @@ AC_DEFUN([TYPE_SOCKLEN_T], > [#include <sys/types.h> > #include <sys/socket.h>]) > ]) As the whole detection logic does not work as expected (we need to compile and test-run the code, not only compile), can we drop this part completely ?
