       Prefetch operations.

       This file defines an API for prefetch macros / inline-functions, which are architecture-dependent.
       Prefetching occurs when a processor requests an instruction or data from memory to cache before it is
       actually needed, potentially speeding up the execution of the program.

       Definition in file rte_prefetch.h.

staticvoidrte_prefetch0(constvolatilevoid*p)[inline],[static]
       Prefetch a cache line into all cache levels.

       Parametersp Address to prefetch

   staticvoidrte_prefetch1(constvolatilevoid*p)[inline],[static]
       Prefetch a cache line into all cache levels except the 0th cache level.

       Parametersp Address to prefetch

   staticvoidrte_prefetch2(constvolatilevoid*p)[inline],[static]
       Prefetch a cache line into all cache levels except the 0th and 1th cache levels.

       Parametersp Address to prefetch

   staticvoidrte_prefetch_non_temporal(constvolatilevoid*p)[inline],[static]
       Prefetch a cache line into all cache levels (non-temporal/transient version)

       The non-temporal prefetch is intended as a prefetch hint that processor will use the prefetched data only
       once or short period, unlike the rte_prefetch0() function which imply that prefetched data to use
       repeatedly.

       Parametersp Address to prefetch

   static__rte_experimentalvoidrte_prefetch0_write(constvoid*p)[inline],[static]WarningEXPERIMENTAL: this API may change, or be removed, without prior notice

       Prefetch a cache line into all cache levels, with intention to write. This prefetch variant hints to the
       CPU that the program is expecting to write to the cache line being prefetched.

       Parametersp Address to prefetch

       Definition at line 72 of file rte_prefetch.h.

   static__rte_experimentalvoidrte_prefetch1_write(constvoid*p)[inline],[static]WarningEXPERIMENTAL: this API may change, or be removed, without prior notice

       Prefetch a cache line into all cache levels, except the 0th, with intention to write. This prefetch
       variant hints to the CPU that the program is expecting to write to the cache line being prefetched.

       Parametersp Address to prefetch

   static__rte_experimentalvoidrte_prefetch2_write(constvoid*p)[inline],[static]WarningEXPERIMENTAL: this API may change, or be removed, without prior notice

       Prefetch a cache line into all cache levels, except the 0th and 1st, with intention to write. This
       prefetch variant hints to the CPU that the program is expecting to write to the cache line being
       prefetched.

   static__rte_experimentalvoidrte_cldemote(constvolatilevoid*p)[inline],[static]WarningEXPERIMENTAL: this API may change, or be removed, without prior notice

       Demote a cache line to a more distant level of cache from the processor. CLDEMOTE hints to hardware to
       move (demote) a cache line from the closest to the processor to a level more distant from the processor.
       It is a hint and not guaranteed. rte_cldemote is intended to move the cache line to the more remote
       cache, where it expects sharing to be efficient and to indicate that a line may be accessed by a
       different core in the future.
