The following patch adds an option to control software prefetching of memory references with non-constant/unknown strides. Currently we prefetch these references if the pass thinks there is benefit to doing so. But, since this is all based on heuristics, it's not always the case that we end up with better performance. For Falkor there is also the problem of conflicts with the hardware prefetcher, so we need to be more conservative in terms of what we issue software prefetch hints for. This also aligns GCC with what LLVM does for Falkor. Similarly to the previous patch, the defaults guarantee no change in behavior for other targets and architectures. 2018-05-07 Luis Machado <luis.machado@linaro.org> gcc/ * config/aarch64/aarch64-protos.h (cpu_prefetch_tune) <prefetch_dynamic_strides>: New const bool field. * config/aarch64/aarch64.c (generic_prefetch_tune): Update to include prefetch_dynamic_strides.

README
This directory contains the GNU Compiler Collection (GCC). The GNU Compiler Collection is free software. See the files whose names start with COPYING for copying permission. The manuals, and some of the runtime libraries, are under different terms; see the individual source files for details. The directory INSTALL contains copies of the installation information as HTML and plain text. The source of this information is gcc/doc/install.texi. The installation information includes details of what is included in the GCC sources and what files GCC installs. See the file gcc/doc/gcc.texi (together with other files that it includes) for usage and porting information. An online readable version of the manual is in the files gcc/doc/gcc.info*. See http://gcc.gnu.org/bugs/ for how to report bugs usefully. Copyright years on GCC source files may be listed using range notation, e.g., 1987-2012, indicating that every year in the range, inclusive, is a copyrightable year that could otherwise be listed individually.
