| 8680 | This builtin tells the compiler to emit a prefetch instruction if supported by the |
| 8681 | target CPU. If the target CPU does not support the requested prefetch instruction, |
| 8682 | this builtin is a noop. This function has no effect on the behavior of the program, |
| 8683 | only on the performance characteristics. |
| 8684 | </p> |
| 8685 | <p> |
| 8686 | The {#syntax#}ptr{#endsyntax#} argument may be any pointer type and determines the memory |
| 8687 | address to prefetch. This function does not dereference the pointer, it is perfectly legal |
| 8688 | to pass a pointer to invalid memory to this function and no illegal behavior will result. |
