Between GCC version 3.4.0 and 4.3.3 (including 3.4.0 and 4.3.3), -mtune=merced is implemented in GCC. Starting from 4.4.0, -mtune=merced is deprecated. Even implemented in versions between 3.4.0 and 4.3.3, the -mtune=merced feature has been broken in some of the versions. For example, GCC 4.1.2 reports interanl tuning function errors during kernel building with -mtune=merced. Or GCC Bugzilla 16130 reports another -mtune=merced issue on GCC 3.4.1. So I would remove the -mtune=merced from IA64 kernel build. Without this option, kernel on Merced will remain the same except losing an unstable and out-of-date performance tunning feature. Since GCC version 3.4.0, -mtune=mckinley has been implemented. The -mtune=mckinley option functions the same as mtune=itanium2. And mtune=itanium2 is the default option. So we don't need to add mtune=mckinley either since its been the default option in any GCC version which implements this option. Signed-off-by: Fenghua Yu <fenghua.yu@intel.com>
