[petsc-dev] error with flags PETSc uses for determining AVX

[Zhang, Hong]

The CPU supports avx2, but the compiler or the OS may not. You can print out the macros that the compiler defines and grep for avx2. The commands can be found at

PETSc source has code like defined(__AVX2__) in the source but it does not seem to be able to find any of these macros (icc or gcc) on the petsc-02 system

Are these macros supposed to be defined? How does on get them to be defined? Why are they not define? What am I doing wrong?
