Microsoft Specific

Generate various forms of the Line Prefetch (lfetch) instruction, which is used to tell the processor that an address is to be used frequently.

void __lfetch(
   unsigned int Hint,
   const void * Address
);
void __lfetch_excl(
   unsigned int Hint,
   const void * Address
);
void __lfetchfault(
   unsigned int Hint,
   const void * Address
);
void __lfetchfault_excl(
   unsigned int Hint,
   const void * Address
);

Parameters

  • [in] Hint
    A hint to the processor about the cache level to use.
  • [in] Address
    The address to reposition in the cache.

Remarks

The valid Hint values are constants from 0 through 3, which specify the locality hint. A Hint value of 0 indicates temporal locality (level 1), a 1 indicates no temporal locality (level 1), 2 indicates no temporal locality (level 2), and 3 represents no temporal locality (all levels). Any other value produces a compile time error. For more information, see the Intel IPF documentation.

The following table shows the instructions generated by __lfetch, __lfetch_excl, __lfetchfault, and __lfetchfault_excl with various values of the Hint parameter.
