 To override what instruction set will be used, set the ``cpu_instruction_set``
 parameter to the instruction set of your choice (such as ``corei7``, ``power8``, etc.).

 ``cpu_instruction_set`` is not used in Arm builds, as setting the instruction set
 without other parameters leads to inferior builds. The way to tailor Arm builds
 is to build for a SoC using ``-Dplatform=<SoC>`` mentioned above.
