dl_platform and dl_hwcap are set from AT_PLATFORM and AT_HWCAP very
early during startup. They are used by dynamic linker to determine
platform and build an array of hardware capability names, which are
added to search path when loading shared object. dl_platform and
dl_hwcap are unused on x86-64. On i386, i386, i486, i586 and i686
platforms were supported and only SSE2 capability was used.
On x86, usage of AT_PLATFORM and AT_HWCAP to determine platform and
processor capabilities is obsolete since all information is available
in dl_x86_cpu_features. This patch sets dl_platform and dl_hwcap from
dl_x86_cpu_features in dynamic linker. On i386, the available plaforms
are changed to i586 and i686 since i386 has been deprecated. On x86-64,
the available plaforms are haswell, which is for Haswell class processors
with BMI1, BMI2, LZCNT, MOVBE, POPCNT, AVX2 and FMA, and xeon_phi, which
is for Xeon Phi class processors with AVX512F, AVX512CD, AVX512ER and
AVX512PF. A capability, avx512_1, is also added to x86-64 for AVX512
ISAs: AVX512F, AVX512CD, AVX512BW, AVX512DQ and AVX512VL.
