ARM Tacks On Ares Server CPU Support To The GNU Assembler
![GNU](/assets/categories/gnu.webp)
The GNU Assembler (GAS) has picked up support for the ARM Ares CPU and recognizes -mcpu ares. Ares remains ARM's codename and not necessarily the branding the CPU will carry once formally launched. Like the compiler patches, passing Ares implies ARMv8.2-A along with FP16 and dot product bits enabled.
The Ares support in the GNU Assembler was merged this morning.
Ares is expected to be a high-performance ARM server core launching this year and manufactured on a 7nm TSMC process.
