      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.
