Cache Support Using Streaming SIMD Extensions

Microsoft Specific

The following intrinsics provide ways to make efficient use of the cache. For an explanation of the syntax used in code samples in this topic, see Floating-Point Intrinsics Using Streaming SIMD Extensions.

Intrinsic	Description
_mm_prefetch	Loads one cache line of data from address `p` to a ___location closer to the processor.
_mm_stream_pi	Stores the data in `a` to the address `p` without polluting the caches.
_mm_stream_ps	Stores the data in `a` to the address `p` without polluting the caches.
_mm_sfence	Guarantees that every preceding store is globally visible before any subsequent store.
