(Doc ID 1513215.1)
Last updated on FEBRUARY 11, 2022
Applies to:
Oracle Solaris Studio - Version Forte Developer 6 Update 2 to 12.4 [Release 6.0 to 12]Oracle Solaris on SPARC (64-bit)
Oracle Solaris on SPARC (32-bit)
Oracle Solaris on x86 (32-bit)
Oracle Solaris on x86-64 (64-bit)
Symptoms
Oracle Solaris Studio 12.3 and earlier may fail to correctly identify the hardware in a non-global zone or in a branded zone, and fall back "generic" rather than platform specific optimization.
fpversion:
# ./fpversion
A SPARC-based CPU is available.
Kernel says main memory's clock rate is 1012.0 MHz.
Sun-4 floating-point controller version 0 found.
An UltraSPARC chip is available.
Use "-xtarget=generic -xcache=generic" code-generation option.
