================
Comment at: libc/src/string/CMakeLists.txt:83
+add_subdirectory(${LIBC_MEMCPY_IMPL_FOLDER})
+add_memcpy(memcpy MARCH native)
----------------
It seems like this will not ensure the best flags. Is that the intention? If so, why?


================
Comment at: libc/src/string/x86_64/CMakeLists.txt:1
+add_memcpy("memcpy_${LIBC_TARGET_MACHINE}_opt_none" REJECT "${ALL_CPU_FEATURES}")
+add_memcpy("memcpy_${LIBC_TARGET_MACHINE}_opt_sse" REQUIRE "SSE" REJECT "SSE2")
----------------
These listings are already under `x86_64`. So, do we need to use `${LIBC_TARGET_MACHINE}`?


================
Comment at: libc/src/string/x86_64/CMakeLists.txt:4
+add_memcpy("memcpy_${LIBC_TARGET_MACHINE}_opt_avx" REQUIRE "AVX" REJECT "AVX2")
+add_memcpy("memcpy_${LIBC_TARGET_MACHINE}_opt_avx512f" REQUIRE "AVX512F")
----------------
It would be nice if a descriptive error message is shown if one tries to build a target which isn't supported on their machine. ISTM that it is not the case. If indeed so, we can do it in a later round I think.


================
Comment at: libc/test/src/string/CMakeLists.txt:32
+  if(can_run)
+    compute_flags(flags MARCH native)
+    add_libc_unittest(
----------------

Same question for me as well. I left a related comment at a different place above.
