# SYNOPSIS
#
#   AX_GCC_X86_CPUID(OP)
#
# DESCRIPTION
#
#   On Pentium and later x86 processors, with gcc or a compiler that has a
#   compatible syntax for inline assembly instructions, run a small program
#   that executes the cpuid instruction with input OP. This can be used to
#   detect the CPU type.
#
#   On output, the values of the eax, ebx, ecx, and edx registers are stored
#   as hexadecimal strings as "eax:ebx:ecx:edx" in the cache variable
#   ax_cv_gcc_x86_cpuid_OP.
#
#   If the cpuid instruction fails (because you are running a
#   cross-compiler, or because you are not using gcc, or because you are on
#   a processor that doesn't have this instruction), ax_cv_gcc_x86_cpuid_OP
#   is set to the string "unknown".
#
#   This macro mainly exists to be used in AX_GCC_ARCHFLAG.
