[llvm-commits] Obtaining CPU information in RuntimeDyld

[Amara Emerson]

Hi,

I'm unsure about the best way to obtain the specific CPU core that is being
targeted in the ExecutionEngine/RuntimeDyld component. It seems currently
the only way to find information like this is via the object file itself.
E.g. RuntimeDyld.cpp:65 where the Arch is retrieved via libObject.

What would be the best way to get more information about the CPU type? _If_
passing more information to RuntimeDyld from the client isn't an option for
design reasons, then the only other choice I can see is to implement build
attribute reading in libObject/ELF.

Thoughts?
