### build



Cross compilation is now supported with an extra configure option:

`./configure --target-arch=aarm64`

Preliminary support for cross compilation is now available. Targeting an older

CPU on the same architecture using your native compiler can be accomplished by

using the `--target-arch` option to `configure` as follows:



Additionally, a prefix to the toolchain can be provided to automatically set up

CC and CXX:

`./configure --target-arch=aarm64 --cross-prefix=aarch64-linux-gnu`

~~~

./configure --target-arch=broadwell

~~~



Additionally, some support for cross-compiling to other architectures has been

added via the `--cross-prefix` argument to `configure`. To cross-compile, set CC

and CXX to the cross compilers, then run configure as follows:



~~~

./configure --target-arch=aarm64 --cross-prefix=aarch64-linux-gnu

~~~
