// Explicitly defines the size of the L1 cache for purposes of alignment.
// Setting the cacheline size allows you to specify that certain objects be
// aligned on a cacheline boundary with `ABSL_CACHELINE_ALIGNED` declarations.
// (See below.)
//
// NOTE: this macro should be replaced with the following C++17 features, when
// those are generally available:
//
//   * `std::hardware_constructive_interference_size`
//   * `std::hardware_destructive_interference_size`
//
// See http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/papers/2016/p0154r1.html
// for more information.

// ABSL_CACHELINE_ALIGNED
//
// Indicates that the declared object be cache aligned using
// `ABSL_CACHELINE_SIZE` (see above). Cacheline aligning objects allows you to
// load a set of related objects in the L1 cache for performance improvements.
// Cacheline aligning objects properly allows constructive memory sharing and
// prevents destructive (or "false") memory sharing.
//
// NOTE: callers should replace uses of this macro with `alignas()` using
// `std::hardware_constructive_interference_size` and/or
// `std::hardware_destructive_interference_size` when C++17 becomes available to
// them.
//
// See http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/papers/2016/p0154r1.html
// for more information.
//
// On some compilers, `ABSL_CACHELINE_ALIGNED` expands to an `__attribute__`
// or `__declspec` attribute. For compilers where this is not known to work,
// the macro expands to nothing.
//
// No further guarantees are made here. The result of applying the macro
// to variables and types is always implementation-defined.
//
// WARNING: It is easy to use this attribute incorrectly, even to the point
// of causing bugs that are difficult to diagnose, crash, etc. It does not
// of itself guarantee that objects are aligned to a cache line.
//
// NOTE: Some compilers are picky about the locations of annotations such as
// this attribute, so prefer to put it at the beginning of your declaration.
// For example,
//
//   ABSL_CACHELINE_ALIGNED static Foo* foo = ...
//
//   class ABSL_CACHELINE_ALIGNED Bar { ...
//
// Recommendations:
//
// 1) Consult compiler documentation; this comment is not kept in sync as
//    toolchains evolve.
// 2) Verify your use has the intended effect. This often requires inspecting
//    the generated machine code.
// 3) Prefer applying this attribute to individual variables. Avoid
//    applying it to types. This tends to localize the effect.

// ABSL_PREDICT_TRUE, ABSL_PREDICT_FALSE
//
// Enables the compiler to prioritize compilation using static analysis for
// likely paths within a boolean branch.
//
// Example:

//   if (ABSL_PREDICT_TRUE(expression)) {
//     return result;                        // Faster if more likely
//   } else {
//     return 0;
//   }
//
// Compilers can use the information that a certain branch is not likely to be
// taken (for instance, a CHECK failure) to optimize for the common case in
// the absence of better information (ie. compiling gcc with `-fprofile-arcs`).
//
// Recommendation: Modern CPUs dynamically predict branch execution paths,
// typically with accuracy greater than 97%. As a result, annotating every
// branch in a codebase is likely counterproductive; however, annotating
// specific branches that are both hot and consistently mispredicted is likely
// to yield performance improvements.
