This new build variable is disabled by default.
This is in contrast with
DISPATCH
, which is enabled by default (forxxhsum
).At this stage, it's not yet clear if this is a good idea to enable this parameter by default.
It adds a lot of new public symbols to the dynamic library,
and accessing them is supposed to be controlled through the separate header
xxh_x86dispatch.h
,so this capability is not exactly transparent
and anyway it's unclear if this is good idea for this capability to be transparent.
Likely to be discussed again later.
