i have specify pentium-m why display pentium3 (use gcc 3.4.3

do you see the top of the message?it said the -mtune=pentium-m -mtune=pentium3
but in my /etc/make.conf
CFLAGS="-O2 -march=pentium-m -mtune=pentium-m -fomit-frame-pointer -pipe"
CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu"
CXXFLAGS="${CFLAGS}"


help me ~~~~i have emerge gcc-config glibc binutils gcc update to gcc 3.4.3 (gentoo2005.0)

It could be that the portage downgrades -march=pentium-m to -mtune=pentium-m and -mtune=pentium3 for stability reasons with glibc. Does this occur with any other packages? Or are you in the middle of bootstrapping a stage 1 and aren't sure?

Hi Nathaniel,

I hadn't noticed that onscreen but I have had similar queries over recent days and done a bit of study into the matter as I have a Toshiba Tecra A3 with the new Celeron M and Sonoma / Alviso chipset.

What I found is that the Pentium M and Celeron M are at their core a P3. Onto this, Intel bollted the SSE2 extensions, more L2 cache and a bunch of registers for controlling the chips frequency etc stepping so it can slow down when not being driven hard and therefore cool down and use less power. You will find however that compiling with it as a P3, PM or P4 doesn't seem to matter. I have done all three and they all ran OK. Prior to kernel 2.6.11-gentoo-r5 it doesn't matter however the r4 to r5 update seems to bring Mobile chipset throttling / stepping into the menuconfig options and will grumble (non-fatally) on bootup if you don't configure the PM as a PM.

From my observations running 2.6.10 upto 2.6.11-r5, your problems you noticed above will have no real effect other than it might run slightly hotter in which case, as long as you have a decent system it might rev the fan a bit faster

HI mlivingstone
you means no matter p3 pm or p4 all control by kernel? when configure the kernel choice the cpu correct is ok??

On some paquets, march=pentium-m is considered unsafe, so concerned ebuild are replacing it with pentium3 => normal behavior
