-fprefetch-loop-arrays and hardware prefetch

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

Modern x86/x86-64 CPUs support hardware prefetch if memory loads are in a 
regular pattern, and software prefetch is recommended only when memory 
access pattern is hard to determine by hardware. Does that 
mean -fprefetch-loop-arrays is unnecessary on such CPUs?
