`_xgetbv` was reimplemented to use inline assembly in #333 since LLVM 3.9 didn't export the intrinsic we needed to use. LLVM 4.0 has since rectified that issue, and since rust's minimum supported version of LLVM is 8.0, this change can be reverted.
core::arch - Rust's core library architecture-specific intrinsics
The core::arch module implements architecture-dependent intrinsics (e.g. SIMD).
Usage
core::arch is available as part of libcore and it is re-exported by
libstd. Prefer using it via core::arch or std::arch than via this crate.
Unstable features are often available in nightly Rust via the
feature(stdsimd).
Using core::arch via this crate requires nightly Rust, and it can (and does)
break often. The only cases in which you should consider using it via this crate
are:
-
if you need to re-compile
core::archyourself, e.g., with particular target-features enabled that are not enabled forlibcore/libstd. Note: if you need to re-compile it for a non-standard target, please prefer usingxargoand re-compilinglibcore/libstdas appropriate instead of using this crate. -
using some features that might not be available even behind unstable Rust features. We try to keep these to a minimum. If you need to use some of these features, please open an issue so that we can expose them in nightly Rust and you can use them from there.
