            Bug ID: 40236
           Summary: _ARCH_PWR6X defined for incompatible processors
           Product: clang
           Version: trunk
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P
         Component: Frontend

The predefined macro `_ARCH_PWR6X` is associated with GCC's `-mcpu=power6x`
option. `-mcpu=power6x` enables generation of P6 "raw mode" instructions such
as `mftgpr`; say for,
```
long long f(double x) {
  long long l;
  __builtin_memcpy(&l, &x, sizeof(long long));
  return l;
}
```

In other words, `_ARCH_PWR6X` indicates that "raw mode" instructions are
acceptable.

Since `mftgpr` generates SIGILL on POWER8, etc., defining `_ARCH_PWR6X` for
such targets is incorrect.

### SOURCE (<stdin>):
