The Linux Kernel Looks To Drop Support For Intel's ICC Compiler
What of that did they stop doing 10 years ago? ICC/ICX is still proprietary; the "optimization notice" was in fact removed, but only pretty recently; and AFAIK, fast-math is still enabled by default.
“puts certain hardware at a disadvantage on purpose”
Next generation Intel C/C++ compilers are even better because they use the LLVM open source infrastructure. . I discuss what it means for users of the compilers, why we did it, and the bright future.
Intel claims to have made substantial performance improvements in certain code. It is a shame that they do not contribute those optimization passes to LLVM/Clang.
