Hi,

This was added in GCC 6.

From https://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-6/changes.html

"""
The command-line options -march=native, -mcpu=native and -mtune=native are now
available on native AArch64 GNU/Linux systems. Specifying these options causes
GCC to auto-detect the host CPU and choose the optimal setting for that system.
"""

In general, this is target specific. Thus you have to look into target specific
documentation on how it will work.
