Dear Florian,
> +* The dynamic linker loads optimized implementations of shared objects
> + from subdirectories under the glibc-hwcaps directory on the library
> + search path if the system's capabilities meet the requirements for
> + that subdirectory. Initially supported subdirectories include
> + "power9" and "power10" for the powerpc64le-linux-gnu architecture,
> + "z13", "z14", "z15" for s390x-linux-gnu, and "x86-64-v2", "x86-64-v3",
> + "x86-64-v4" for x86_64-linux-gnu. In the x86_64-linux-gnu case, the
> + subsdirectory names correspond to the vendor-independent x86-64
subsdirectory -> subdirectory
