/* The current IFUNC selection is based on microbenchmarks in glibc.
It should give the best performance for most workloads. But other
choices may have better performance for a particular workload or on
the hardware which wasn't available when the selection was made.

- used to enable CPU/ARCH feature yyy, disable CPU/ARCH feature yyy

- the ones in cpu-features.h. It can be used by glibc developers to
- tune for a new processor or override the IFUNC selection to improve
- performance for a particular workload.
+ The environment variable:
- Since all CPU/ARCH features are hardware optimizations without
- security implication, except for Prefer_MAP_32BIT_EXEC, which can
- only be disabled, we check GLIBC_IFUNC for programs, including
