 * The number of CPUs/Cores should less than or equal to 8*sizeof(unsigned long). On 64 bits, the limit 
   is 64. On 32 bits, it is 32.
+* On Loongson 3A. make test would be failed because of pthread_create error. The error code is EAGAIN. However, it will be OK when you run the same testcase on shell. I don't think this is a bug in OpenBLAS.
