I have discovered an issue by accident.

So this is model-2 bulldozer AMD CPU.

GCC agrees:

$ echo | gcc -E - -march=native -###

But clang does not: (look for bdver1)

So clang, unlike gcc, considers this to be bdver1.

After some digging, i've come across getAMDProcessorTypeAndSubtype() in Host.cpp.
I have added the following debug printf after the call to that function in sys::getHostCPUName():

errs() << "Family " << Family << " Model " << Model << " Type " << Type "\n";

Which produced:

Family 21 Model 2 Type 5

Which matches the lscpu output.

As it was pointed in the review by @craig.topper:

I dont' think this is right. Here is what I found on wikipedia. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_AMD_CPU_microarchitectures.

AMD Bulldozer Family 15h - the successor of 10h/K10. Bulldozer is designed for processors in the 10 to 220W category, implementing XOP, FMA4 and CVT16 instruction sets. Orochi was the first design which implemented it. For Bulldozer, CPUID model numbers are 00h and 01h.
AMD Piledriver Family 15h (2nd-gen) - successor to Bulldozer. CPUID model numbers are 02h (earliest "Vishera" Piledrivers) and 10h-1Fh.
AMD Steamroller Family 15h (3rd-gen) - third-generation Bulldozer derived core. CPUID model numbers are 30h-3Fh.
AMD Excavator Family 15h (4th-gen) - fourth-generation Bulldozer derived core. CPUID model numbers are 60h-6Fh, later updated revisions have model numbers 70h-7Fh.

So there's a weird exception where model 2 should go with 0x10-0x1f.

Though It does not help that the code can't be tested at the moment.
With this logical change, the bdver2 is properly detected.

Oh, that simplifies things :)

You may want to check what builtin_cpu_is("btver2") and builtin_cpu_is("btver1") return when compiled with gcc. They seem to have the same bad check in their library code. The gcc compiler uses feature bits not Family/Model.

We also would need to fix the code in compiler-rt since it's copied from our Host.cpp.

gcc uses feature bits. That would be a differential ISA with respect to the previous gen. I think the idea is to get the ISA list as close to the underlying arch. When an older version of the compiler gets used which doesn't have the arch enabled, the compiler can fallback to the closest arch which enables the ISA list.

Model number for bulldozer should be as mentioned in the wikipedia as quoted by @craig.topper.
For example, I have bdver3 machine with lscpu output as mentioned below.
<snip>
Core(s) per socket: 2
Socket(s): 1
NUMA node(s): 1
Vendor ID: AuthenticAMD
CPU family: 21
Model: 48
</snip>

So, checking for '3' in model for bdver3 will definitely fail this machine.

You may want to check what __builtin_cpu_is("btver2") and __builtin_cpu_is("btver1") return when compiled with gcc. They seem to have the same bad check in their library code. The gcc compiler uses feature bits not Family/Model.

We also would need to fix the code in compiler-rt since it's copied from our Host.cpp.

bdver1/2, not btver1/2
But yes, that is apparently broken, too:

$ cat /tmp/test.cpp 
#include <iostream>

int main (int argc, char* argv[]) {
  std::cout << __builtin_cpu_is("bdver2") << " " << __builtin_cpu_is("bdver1") << "\n";
return 0;
}
$ g++ /tmp/test.cpp 
$ ./a.out 
0 1
$ clang++ /tmp/test.cpp 
$ ./a.out 
0 1
$ /build/llvm-build-Clang-release/bin/clang++ /tmp/test.cpp 
$ ./a.out 
0 1

Posted compiler-rt side in D46323, but it does nothing for me because i guess the gcc functionality is being used.

Guess I'm predisposed to seeing Btver2 due to the scheduler model activity lately. Can you file a bug against libgcc?

Update the comment.

Guessed as much :)

I'm kinda tempted to look into creating scheduling model for this processor,
since this is what i'm using, but not sure if i can produce anything useful..

Can you file a bug against libgcc?

Yes, right after gcc-bugzilla-account-request@gcc.gnu.org 'replies'.

Update comment, too.
