/*
* The memset implementation below is optimized to use prefetchw and prealloc
* instruction in case of CPU with 64B L1 data cache line (L1_CACHE_SHIFT == 6)
* If you want to implement optimized memset for other possible L1 data cache
* line lengths (32B and 128B) you should rewrite code carefully checking
* we don't call any prefetchw/prealloc instruction for L1 cache lines which
* don't belongs to memset area.

Annotation
- Immediate include surface: `linux/linkage.h`, `asm/cache.h`.
- Atlas domain: Architecture Layer / arch/arc.
- Implementation status: atlas-only.
Implementation Notes
- This generated page is the file-by-file coverage layer; curated subsystem chapters should link here when they synthesize a multi-file control flow.
- Core OS pages should be promoted from atlas-only to deep-reviewed when they explain data structures, invariants, locking, lifecycle, and C implementation snippets.
- Driver-family pages are intentionally pattern-oriented unless they are part of the selected PCIe/NVMe representative device path.
