Pragmas swp，ivdep，各種編譯器中的預取支持

Question

在好的Altix手冊中（altix_single_cpu_optimization http://wwwuser.gwdg.de/~parallel/parallelrechner/altix_documentation/altix_single_cpu_optimization.pdf ）我發現了這個優化編譯器的pragma提示列表

#pragma ivdep               // no aliasing
#pragma swp                 // try to software-pipeline
#pragma noswp               // disable software-pipelining
#pragma loop count (NN)     // hint for SWP
#pragma distribute point    // split this large loop
#pragma unroll (n)          // unroll n times
#pragma nounroll            // do not unroll
#pragma prefetch a          // prefetch array “a”
#pragma noprefetch c        // do not prefetch array “c”

哪些編譯器支持這些pragma？ 實現鏈接優化的原因是什么（軟件流水線技術是低ipc和低reg數處理器的相當硬優化之一）？
