There are two parts to this. The first is that all Fedora RPMs are compiled to x86-64-v1.

The second part is that there are programs packaged by Fedora that detect the
micro-architecture and run optimised code paths depending on what is detected.

You can see what your micro-architecure support is with this command:

/usr/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 --help

Which for my main desktop system reports at the end:

This program interpreter self-identifies as: /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2

Shared library search path:
  (libraries located via /etc/ld.so.cache)
  /lib64 (system search path)
  /usr/lib64 (system search path)

Subdirectories of glibc-hwcaps directories, in priority order:
  x86-64-v4
  x86-64-v3 (supported, searched)
  x86-64-v2 (supported, searched)

You can see from this that there is support for searching for micro-architectures
specific code.

Depending on the software that you care about this may or may not be doing this.
For most packages compiling to x86-64-v4 make little or no performance difference.

At the moment there is no plan to rebase Fedora on x86-64-v2 let alone x86-64-v4.
