Hi Anand,
The build host doesn't need to have the same features as the target.
However, the compiler running on the build host must know how to
compile for SSE4.2 and AVX2 architectures. For example, you can compile
for x86_64 on ARM (and vice versa). It works in the same way for
extensions.
So,
Thanks for the update Jeroen, and for creating the issues to track the
suggestions.
You didn't answer the parts of my email relating to what happens at compile
time, and how the resulting NSD binary is affected depending on what
architecture it's compiled on. If you could expand on those, I'd appr
Hi Anand,
Doing it with "nsd -v" is not implemented right now because it's meant
to be transparent to users of the library, but I think you're right and
it'd be good to show the info.
The kernel is selected when the parse function is called. For NSD it
makes sense to select one on startup and alw

Hi Anand, Stuart,
That is indeed correct. At runtime the CPUID instruction is used to
detect which extensions are offered and it chooses based on that. When
compiling on x86_64 with SSE4.2 and AVX2 enabled, the binary will
actually contain 3 parsers, the most optimal one is used at runtime.

Hi NSD developers,
I've been following recent discussion and activity around building NSD
4.10, triggered by build failure in Homebrew. I see that you added some
code to detect more things and adjust the build based on what type of
processor is detected.
If one were to build NSD on an x86_64 CPU
