The whole point of the target attribute is so that a single executable can have
support for different similar architectures.  I hope eventually to tie this in
with the binutils shared library relocation STT_IFUNC that will allow the
shared library loader to pick which is the fastest version of the library for
the particular hardware you are running on.


I imagine the code would be something like at least initially:

	if (have_power7)
	   p7_func ();
	else if (have_power6)
	   p6_func ();
	else
	   p5_func ();

Multilibs on the other hand for each different cpu you build a new executable.
Sometimes that is appropriate, and sometimes having only a single binary is
appropriate.

I looked at the options stuff, and figured we needed a combination of Variable
and TargetSave, so I added TargetVariable.  It would be nice if we could move
the x86 to use TargetVariable instead of TargetSave, and delete TargetSave.

I coded the following today to add TargetVariable.  At the present, I want to
play around with it more, and change my current patch to use that instead of
making all of the invasive changes, but in case you were thinking about the
same thing, I figured maybe eliminate extra work.

2010-10-07  Michael Meissner  <meissner@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

	* optc-gen.awk: Add support for a record type, TargetVariable that
	combines Variable and TargetSave.
	* opth-gen.awk: Ditto.
	* doc/options.texi: Ditto.

Yes, this looks like a good way of doing things that fits in well with the 
general options infrastructure.  Thanks for working out how to integrate 
this with .opt files and gcc_options.

A cut-and-paste problem here with the second partial paragraph?

Probably.  I shortened the buffer when posting, and I may have shorted it too
much.

Enum's are assumed to be stored as ints, due to the fact that the generator
file doesn't have the include files present.
