[Mesa-dev] [PATCH] mesa: Fix build to properly check for supported compiler flags

Fixes: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=72708

It seems to me that the Intel code that uses this SSE4.1 function
is still buggy, as it has no runtime check - would it not crash
if built on a SSE4-capable system but used with a lower-class cpu?

i965 systems = LGA775 = Pentium4 without SSE4.

Anyway, NMI.

+#
+# SYNOPSIS
+#
+#   AX_CHECK_COMPILE_FLAG(FLAG, [ACTION-SUCCESS], [ACTION-FAILURE], [EXTRA-FLAGS])
+#
+# DESCRIPTION
+#
+#   Check whether the given FLAG works with the current language's compiler
+#   or gives an error.  (Warnings, however, are ignored)
+#
+#   ACTION-SUCCESS/ACTION-FAILURE are shell commands to execute on
+#   success/failure.
+#
+#   If EXTRA-FLAGS is defined, it is added to the current language's default
+#   flags (e.g. CFLAGS) when the check is done.  The check is thus made with
+#   the flags: "CFLAGS EXTRA-FLAGS FLAG".  This can for example be used to
+#   force the compiler to issue an error when a bad flag is given.
+#
+#   NOTE: Implementation based on AX_CFLAGS_GCC_OPTION. Please keep this
+#   macro in sync with AX_CHECK_{PREPROC,LINK}_FLAG.
