+# 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.
