#if __LINUX_ARM_ARCH__ >= 7 && defined(CONFIG_SMP)
#define ARCH_HAS_PREFETCHW
static inline void prefetchw(const void *ptr)

".arch_extension mp\n"
__ALT_SMP_ASM(
WASM(pldw) "\t%a0",
WASM(pld) "\t%a0"
)
:: "p" (ptr));
}
#endifprefetchw() 函数的作用就是从内存中预读数据到 cache 中。函数调用内嵌汇编，由于 支持 SMP，所以需要提供两种预读指令 pldw 和 pld。由于本实践支持 SMP，于是使用 pld, 因此这个函数的核心代码就是使用 pld 指令从内存预读数据到 cache。

驱动的安装很简单，首先将驱动放到 drivers/BiscuitOS/ 目录下，命名为 atomic.c， 然后修改 Kconfig 文件，添加内容参考如下：
diff --git a/drivers/BiscuitOS/Kconfig b/drivers/BiscuitOS/Kconfig
index 4edc5a5..1a9abee 100644
--- a/drivers/BiscuitOS/Kconfig
+++ b/drivers/BiscuitOS/Kconfig

+ bool "BBBXXX"
+
+endif # BISCUITOS_ATOMIC

endif # BISCUITOS_DRV接着修改 Makefile，请参考如下修改：
diff --git a/drivers/BiscuitOS/Makefile b/drivers/BiscuitOS/Makefile

[*]BiscuitOS Driver--->
[*]atomic
[*]BBBXXX()具体过程请参考：

驱动编译也请参考下面文章关于驱动编译一节：
驱动运行
驱动的运行，请参考下面文章中关于驱动运行一节：
启动内核，并打印如下信息：

如果需要加快数据的读取，可以使用 prefetchw() 函数将数据读到 cache 中。
