If I pass "-Wa,-march=prescott" option to Linux kernel - they failed to build
(used wide range of directives like AMD's prefetch). IMHO only "-mtune" need to
be passed to not bound directives range.

Yes, I read maillist archives. But I don't know current state of process and
may suggest own solution (best for me). Sorry if not actual.

I pass only "native" march|mtune|Wa,-mtune - driver-i386.c -mtune results set
are more compatible with GAS -mtune. And host_detect_local_cpu changed to
process "astune" parameter and few (atom & generic) incompatible keywords.

There are only linux64.h changed. Others - likewise if somebody find this
useful.

patch produced on 5.0, but used on 4.5.

atune-4.6.patch

Cleanup (+ unused macros), reduce code (ASM_SPEC_MTUNE moved to i386.h), adopt
to 4.6.

GNU Assembler support optimization options, but GCC does not pass -mtune and
-march options to assembler! For full optimization it's required to use this
twice:

# gcc ... -mtune=core2 -Wa,-mtune=core2

There is no default passing optimization options from GCC to AS. But many
programmers imply that passing. Because it's very strange to optimize code on
GCC-level and do not optimize on assembler level.

Even Linux kernel use -march without -Wa,-march.

PS. CCing to vvv@ru.ru, please.

------- Comment #1 from rguenth at gcc dot gnu dot org  2009-05-24 21:17 -------
Confirmed.  But properly supporting this is a bit of a hassle because we need
to
support assemblers other than GNU as.

This is very odd?  What is the assembler doing that the compiler isn't?

different processors have better nops for different sizes.

There are exist some optimizations impossible without exact knowledge of
address and opcodes,
One example avoiding of branch mispredicts -
http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=39942
Other example - Ensure instructions using 0xF7 opcode byte does not start at
offset 14 of a fetch line...

Unfortunately, current version GNU AS cat't do this optimizations.
