I'm building something with

Thread model: posix

gcc version 12.3.0 (Ubuntu 12.3.0-1ubuntu1~22.04)
=============================
On this processor:
model name : Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU X5460 @ 3.16GHz
which one web page says is
=============================
For my Xeon X5460 CPU ("Harpertown", a Yorkfield-based, i.e. "core2",
but with the "Penryn" microarchitecture)
=============================
it fails with
Program received signal SIGILL, Illegal instruction.
0x00007ffff7c8ed0a in ___H___repl () from
/export/users/lucier/local/Gambit/current/lib/libgambit.so
(gdb) disassemble 0x00007ffff7c8ed0a, 0x00007ffff7c8ed0f
Dump of assembler code from 0x7ffff7c8ed0a to 0x7ffff7c8ed0f:
=> 0x00007ffff7c8ed0a <___H___repl+184138>: rdtscp
0x00007ffff7c8ed0d <___H___repl+184141>: shl $0x20,%rdx
End of assembler dump.
And it works fine on another machine with the processor:
Intel Xeon E3-1271 v3 Haswell 3.6GHz 8MB L3 Cache ...
The software build doesn't specify any -march= value, and I don't see
that gcc-12 was built with any special value for -march=
So it appears that the Xeon X5460 CPU from 2008 doesn't have the rdtscp
instruction, which is used by default by this version of gcc on x86-64
when no architecture is specified.
If I say
gcc -Q --help=target
I get
-march= x86-64
with a lot of other options enabled or disabled.
So, is there a way to tell what the default -march= value for a given
version of gcc is?
