[LLVMdev] compiler controlled data Prefetching

[Dan Gohman]

Hello,

LLVM does not currently have any algorithms for software
prefetching. The ScalarEvolution framework provides some
facilities that can be used to analyze access patterns
of pointers within loops, which you might find useful
as a starting point.
