Subject: [PATCH 1/2] x86: Use -mno-avx when available
Date: Wed, 28 Mar 2012 11:51:17 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1332960678-11879-1-git-send-email-andi@firstfloor.org> (raw)

From: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com>

On gccs that support AVX it's a good idea to disable that too, similar to
how SSE2, SSE1 etc. are already disabled. This prevents the compiler
from generating AVX ever implicitely.

No failure observed, just from review.
