9 // This file implements a pass to automatically promote accessed memref regions
10 // to buffers in a faster memory space that is explicitly managed, with the
11 // necessary data movement operations performed through either regular
12 // point-wise load/store's or DMAs. Such explicit copying (also referred to as
13 // array packing/unpacking in the literature), when done on arrays that exhibit
14 // reuse, results in near elimination of conflict misses, TLB misses, reduced
15 // use of hardware prefetch streams, and reduced false sharing. It is also
16 // necessary for hardware that explicitly managed levels in the memory
17 // hierarchy, and where DMAs may have to be used. This optimization is often
18 // performed on already tiled code.
