NAME
isalist - display the native instruction sets executable on this
platform
SYNOPSIS
isalistDESCRIPTION
isalist prints the names of the native instruction sets executable on
this platform on the standard output, as returned by the
SI_ISALIST command of
sysinfo(2).
The names are space-separated and are ordered in the sense of best
performance. That is, earlier-named instruction sets might contain
more instructions than later-named instruction sets; a program that
is compiled for an earlier-named instruction sets will most likely
run faster on this machine than the same program compiled for a
later-named instruction set.
Programs compiled for instruction sets that do not appear in the list
will most likely experience performance degradation or not run at all
on this machine.
The instruction set names known to the system are listed in
isalist(7). These names might or might not match predefined names or
compiler options in the C language compilation system,
This command is obsolete and may be removed in a future version of
Solaris. See
isainfo(1) for a better way to handle instruction set
extensions.
