Uwe L. Korn commented on ARROW-536:
-----------------------------------
The current code (as in ARROW-33) will compile and work on non-SSE4 system but
the {{popcnt}} instruction will only be used by the compiler if the flag
{{-msse4.2}} is provided. We would need rather two variants of specific
functions compiled, one with SSE4.2 instructions and one without. Loading the
correct one must be resolved at runtime.
> [C++] Provide non-SSE4 versions of functions that use CPU intrinsics for
> older processors
