[lldb-dev] [PATCH] Detect Haswell subarchitecture (i.e. using -march=native)

[Adam Strzelecki]

Hello,

This is my first patch on this list, however I've already submitted several trough bug tracking system. Since it probably needs some review I am submitting it here.

The main intent of this patch is to detect "core-avx2" platform on Haswell i7 CPUs when running -march=native. Currently it detects it as generic x86_64.

lib/Support/Host.cpp:
* Haswell is detected for CPUID Family 6 Model 60
* Similar to Ivy and Sandy Bridge we check for AVX2 since some Haswell Pentiums are SSE4.x only
* I have marked HasAVX2 as volatile, since otherwise it gets magically zeroed when compiling with clang with clang

lib/Target/X86/X86Subtarget.cpp:
* Also enabling X86::FeatureFastUAMem for Haswell

Regards,
