    When I upgrade PHP to 7.4.8 on Hetzner CPX21 VPS, I get "PHP compiled with CPU_MARCH=bdver4" when it should be CPU_MARCH=znver2?

    Only Kernel is upgraded to elrepo-ml (tried with default 3.10 as well, same result). Other system files are all Centminmod defaults.

    For KVM VPS or virtualized, the cpu march detected is whatever one, your web host configures the KVM VPS host node for and isn't necessarily the same as the actual cpu. They can for instance configure the lowest common march for a particular family for various reasons i.e. they have a mix of several generations of cpus across all VPS host node servers but have a common KVM OS template, so they need to configure KVM VPS for the lowest/oldest cpu in the family.

    That is probably what is going on here. But the other reason is GCC 9 is too old to detect AMD EPYC 2 cpus and may need to wait for GCC 10+ compiler. But GCC 9 is meant to support znver2 AMD Zen 2 CPU Support Merged To GCC 9 (-march=znver2) - Phoronix

    You can verify by using a newer GCC compiler to see if it's detected i.e. GCC 9+ via command below
    Code (Text):
    /opt/rh/devtoolset-9/root/usr/bin/gcc -c -Q -march=native --help=target 2>&1 | grep '\-march'

    and output for
    Code (Text):
    lscpu

    and output for
    Code (Text):
    cat /proc/cpuinfo

    Currently Centmin Mod 123.09beta01 and newer PHP routlines will set znver2 when GCC compiler march native check returns znver2 and certain cpu vendor id is detected i.e. AuthenticAMD vendor id is detected + 64bit cpu + GCC compiler march returns znver2

    Another check to do is with command
    Code (Text):
    /opt/rh/devtoolset-9/root/usr/bin/gcc --target-help | grep -A40 'march=CPU'
    

    does seem znver2 is a valid march for GCC 9 via devtoolset-9 but whether it detects your AMD cpu as such depends on above mentioned factors too

    /opt/rh/devtoolset-9/root/usr/bin/gcc --target-help | grep -A40 'march=CPU'

    My packet.net AMD EPYC 2 Rome 7402 bare metal server reported bdver4 incorrect march target with GCC 8.3 as 8.x didn't support znver2.

    But my BuyVM KVM VPS with Ryzen 3900X reports znver2 with devtoolset-9 GCC 9

      Known preferred register vector length (to use with the -mprefer-vector-width= option):
      Known valid arguments for -march= option:
      Known valid arguments for -mtune= option:
    

    So most likely Hetzner's AMD EPYC servers aren't configured to expose znver2 march when GCC 9 checks native march support for znver2

    Yes, it's just like you said. And this applies to Linode's AMD Epyc instances as well.

    So not a bug.

    Yeah the more cpu models you have in the VPS host node mix, then the more likelihood that the web host configures the lower common denominated cpu model for their KVM configuration. Might contact Linode to see if it's something they can work on i.e. as separate AMD EPYC Linode plan line with exposed znver2 march to KVM guest VPS servers.

    I mailed Hetzner for the same reason. So far no big hosting provider offers real Zen2 for VPS..
    VPS Plans by CPU Model

    Sweet that is surprisingly fast action on Hetzner's end eventually :) Helps they reserved a particular VPS plan to only AMD EPYC Rome :)

    Hetzner reacted swiftly - testing with the forthcoming znver2 activated on a Amd Epyc Rome 2 VPS (CPX-line):
    Code:
    /opt/rh/devtoolset-9/root/usr/bin/gcc -c -Q -march=native --help=target 2>&1 | grep '\-march'
      -march=                               znver2
