-Title: CPU_FLAGS_X86 introduction |

-The USE flags corresponding to the instruction sets and other features |
| 32 |
-specific to the x86 (amd64) architecture are being moved into a separate |
| 33 |
-USE flag group called CPU_FLAGS_X86. |
| 34 |
- |
| 35 |
-In order not to lose CPU-specific optimizations, users will be required |
| 36 |
-to update their make.conf (and package.use) file. For example, if |
| 37 |
-the following USE flags were present: |
| 38 |
- |
| 39 |
- USE="mmx mmxext sse sse2 sse3" |
| 40 |
- |
| 41 |
-Those flags need to be copied into: |
| 42 |
- |
| 43 |
- CPU_FLAGS_X86="mmx mmxext sse sse2 sse3" |
| 44 |
- |
| 45 |
-Please note that the same CPU_FLAGS_X86 variable is used both on x86 |
| 46 |
-and amd64 systems. |
| 47 |
- |
| 48 |
-When in doubt, you can consult the flag descriptions using one of |
| 49 |
-the commonly available tools, e.g. `equery uses` from gentoolkit: |
| 50 |
- |
| 51 |
- $ equery uses media-video/ffmpeg |
| 52 |
- |
| 53 |
-Most of the flag names match /proc/cpuinfo names, with the notable |
| 54 |
-exception of SSE3 which is called 'pni' in /proc/cpuinfo (please also |
| 55 |
-do not confuse it with distinct SSSE3). |
| 56 |
- |
| 57 |
-To help users enable the correct USE flags, we are providing a tool |
| 58 |
-that generates the correct value for the local CPU. It can be found |
| 59 |
-in the app-portage/cpuid2cpuflags package: |
| 60 |
- |
| 61 |
- $ emerge -1v app-portage/cpuid2cpuflags |
| 62 |
- $ cpuinfo2cpuflags-x86 |
| 63 |
- |
| 64 |
-In order to ensure safe migration and maintain compatibility with |
| 65 |
-external repositories, it is recommended to preserve the old USE |
| 66 |
-settings for a period of one year or until no package of interest is |
| 67 |
-still using them. |
