26 *
27 * CPU feature detection for SDL.
28 *
29 * These functions are largely concerned with reporting if the system has
30 * access to various SIMD instruction sets, but also has other important info
31 * to share, such as system RAM size and number of logical CPU cores.
32 *
33 * CPU instruction set checks, like SDL_HasSSE() and SDL_HasNEON(), are
34 * available on all platforms, even if they don't make sense (an ARM processor
35 * will never have SSE and an x86 processor will never have NEON, for example,
36 * but these functions still exist and will simply return false in these
37 * cases).
