/*-------------------------------------------------------------------------
 *
 * pg_crc32c_armv8_choose.c
 *	  Choose between ARMv8 and software CRC-32C implementation.
 *
 * On first call, checks if the CPU we're running on supports the ARMv8
 * CRC Extension. If it does, use the special instructions for CRC-32C
 * computation. Otherwise, fall back to the pure software implementation
 * (slicing-by-8).
 *
 * XXX: The glibc-specific getauxval() function, with the HWCAP_CRC32
 * flag, is used to determine if the CRC Extension is available on the
 * current platform. Is there a more portable way to determine that?
