Subject: [S390] config option for z9-109 code generation.
Date: Thu, 28 Sep 2006 15:09:04 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20060928130904.GE1120@skybase> (raw)
From: Christian Borntraeger <cborntra@de.ibm.com>
[S390] config option for z9-109 code generation.
Add a kernel config option for the IBM System z9. This will produce
faster code on newer compilers using the -march=z9-109 option.
