5# SYNOPSIS
6#
7# AX_GCC_X86_CPUID(OP)
8#
9# DESCRIPTION
10#
11# On Pentium and later x86 processors, with gcc or a compiler that has a
12# compatible syntax for inline assembly instructions, run a small program
13# that executes the cpuid instruction with input OP. This can be used to
14# detect the CPU type.
15#
16# On output, the values of the eax, ebx, ecx, and edx registers are stored
17# as hexadecimal strings as "eax:ebx:ecx:edx" in the cache variable
18# ax_cv_gcc_x86_cpuid_OP.
19#
20# If the cpuid instruction fails (because you are running a
21# cross-compiler, or because you are not using gcc, or because you are on
22# a processor that doesn't have this instruction), ax_cv_gcc_x86_cpuid_OP
23# is set to the string "unknown".
24#
25# This macro mainly exists to be used in AX_GCC_ARCHFLAG.
