If the user specified a different arch for callee than the caller,
then the compiler will switch on different ISAs (-march is just a
shortcut for different ISA packs), and the programmer is aware that
inlining isn't intended here (we have -mtune, which is not as strong
as -march, but even functions with different -mtune are not inlined
without always_inline attribute). This is documented as:
--q--
On the x86, the inliner does not inline a function that has different
target options than the caller, unless the callee has a subset of the
target options of the caller. For example a function declared with
target("sse3") can inline a function with target("sse2"), since -msse3
implies -msse2.
--/q--
I don't think arch=skylake can be considered as a subset of arch=icelake-server.
I agree that the compiler should reject functions with different PVW.
This is also in accordance with the documentation.
