// This header file defines prefetch functions to prefetch memory contents
// into the first level cache (L1) for the current CPU. The prefetch logic
// offered in this header is limited to prefetching first level cachelines
// only, and is aimed at relatively 'simple' prefetching logic.

// Moves data into the L1 cache before it is read, or "prefetches" it.

// The value of `addr` is the address of the memory to prefetch. If
// the target and compiler support it, data prefetch instructions are
// generated. If the prefetch is done some time before the memory is
// read, it may be in the cache by the time the read occurs.
//
// This method prefetches data with the highest degree of temporal locality;
// data is prefetched where possible into all levels of the cache.
//
// Incorrect or gratuitous use of this function can degrade performance.
// Use this function only when representative benchmarks show an improvement.
//
// Example:
//
// // Computes incremental checksum for `data`.
// int ComputeChecksum(int sum, absl::string_view data);
//
// // Computes cumulative checksum for all values in `data`
// int ComputeChecksum(absl::Span<const std::string> data) {
// int sum = 0;
// auto it = data.begin();
// auto pit = data.begin();
// auto end = data.end();

//
void PrefetchToLocalCache(const void* addr);
// Moves data into the L1 cache before it is read, or "prefetches" it.
//
// This function is identical to `PrefetchToLocalCache()` except that it has
// non-temporal locality: the fetched data should not be left in any of the
// cache tiers. This is useful for cases where the data is used only once /
// short term, for example, invoking a destructor on an object.
//
// Incorrect or gratuitous use of this function can degrade performance.
// Use this function only when representative benchmarks show an improvement.
//
// Example:
//
// template <typename Iterator>
// void DestroyPointers(Iterator begin, Iterator end) {
// size_t distance = std::min(8U, bars.size());
//
// int dist = 8;
// auto prefetch_it = begin;
// while (prefetch_it != end && --dist;) {
// absl::PrefetchToLocalCacheNta(*prefetch_it++);
// }
// while (prefetch_it != end) {
// delete *begin++;
// absl::PrefetchToLocalCacheNta(*prefetch_it++);
// }
// while (begin != end) {
// delete *begin++;
// }
// }
//
void PrefetchToLocalCacheNta(const void* addr);
// Moves data into the L1 cache with the intent to modify it.
//
// This function is similar to `PrefetchToLocalCache()` except that it
// prefetches cachelines with an 'intent to modify' This typically includes
// invalidating cache entries for this address in all other cache tiers, and an
// exclusive access intent.
//
// Incorrect or gratuitous use of this function can degrade performance. As this
// function can invalidate cached cachelines on other caches and computer cores,
// incorrect usage of this function can have an even greater negative impact
// than incorrect regular prefetches.
// Use this function only when representative benchmarks show an improvement.
//
// Example:
//
// void* Arena::Allocate(size_t size) {
// void* ptr = AllocateBlock(size);
// absl::PrefetchToLocalCacheForWrite(ptr);
// return ptr;
// }
