module

intrinsics

Defines intrinsics.

You can import these APIs from the complex package. For example:

from sys import PrefetchLocality

Structs

• ​PrefetchLocality: The prefetch locality.
• ​PrefetchRW: Prefetch read or write.
• ​PrefetchCache: Prefetch cache type.
• ​PrefetchOptions: Collection of configuration parameters for a prefetch intrinsic call.

Functions

• ​llvm_intrinsic: Calls an LLVM intrinsic with no arguments.
• ​gather: Reads scalar values from a SIMD vector, and gathers them into one vector.
• ​scatter: Takes scalar values from a SIMD vector and scatters them into a vector of pointers.
• ​prefetch: Prefetches an instruction or data into cache before it is used.
• ​masked_load: Loads data from memory and return it, replacing masked lanes with values from the passthrough vector.
• ​masked_store: Stores a value at a memory location, skipping masked lanes.
• ​compressed_store: Compresses the lanes of value, skipping mask lanes, and stores at addr.
• ​strided_load: Loads values from addr according to a specific stride.
• ​strided_store: Loads values from addr according to a specific stride.
