IBM /C是否在预处理程序中支持Altivec？

Question

我试图确定何时激活一些Altivec代码路径。当我检查预处理器宏时，当-qaltivec生效时，我看不到相应的预处理宏(见下文)。

我们的担忧或恐惧是对-qaltivec和-DALTIVEC=1或类似的需求。用户几乎从不阅读手册，因此它会为平台产生无穷无尽的问题和错误报告。如果RTFM要成功的话，它将发生在过去的50年左右。

当-qaltivec生效时，XL/C是否发出信号？如果没有，我们还有其他方法可以推断吗？

提前谢谢。

下面来自GCC111，这是一台Power7机器。我不知道为什么编译器声称Altivec不受支持。

大多数编译器(gcc等人)通常自动定义的宏是__VEC__ (或者至少这是我通常用来测试跨平台代码中的AltiVec的符号)。也被定义为 (参见“预定义宏”)用于使用-maltivec或-qaltivec时的xlc。
