There are several checks in vm_version_x86.cpp which uses supports_ht() which are used to set some flags:

Unfortunately HT is not supported on efficient cores in hybrid Intel CPU but supported on performance cores. We find it by comparing recorded CPU features in AOT cache and compare it during production run (AOT code was rejected when mismatched).

I added supports_hybrid() and supports_avx() to such checks so that flags setting will be consistent.

Tested tier1-3, comp-stress

Looks good.

static bool is_intel_modern_cpu() {
precond(is_intel()); // should be called only for intel CPU
// Efficient cores in hybrid CPU may not support hyper-threads.
return (supports_avx() || (supports_sse4_2() && (supports_ht() || supports_hybrid())));

It's an interesting criteria to classify Intel CPUs :-)

On a more serious note, the code would benefit from some cleanup. Seeing "newest" and "modern" used for SSE4.2 and AVX-capable CPUs looks weird.

Thank you, @iwanowww, for looking on this.
Apology for pushing before your review.

I share your view about wording which describes cpus configurations. May be we should file "starter" RFE to do such cleanup.

The VM_Version API for Intel CPUs needs a complete redesign around functional capabilities not descriptive ones (e.g. is_P6, is_modern, is_server, etc.). But it is definitely not a "starter" issue.
