If I remember correct we have also some functions called BAThot and
BATcold. What is the difference there?

I am quite unhappy with the names BATpreload, BATpreload_, and _BATpreload. I really don't like names that differ only by an initial or final _. I would much rather see more descriptive names. BATpreload_ is now more an interface to give advice to the underlying system about how the BAT is going to be accessed in the near future, and _BATpreload is telling the underlying system that you're done with accessing the BAT according to the advice given. Names such as BATaccessadvice/BATendaccessadvice, though longer, are more descriptive.
I have seen some checkins fixing the incorrect use of BATpreload_ and _BATpreload, proofing my point.
Now we still have a chance to fix this.
I fully agree, but did not had the trigger to change it....
I also more than agree --- what about BATaccessBegin() & BATaccessEnd() ?
If noone else is "faster", I could apply the chnages later today ...
That's good. What about BATpreload (without _)?
BATaccess() (i.e., without "Begin"/"End") ?
The actual function should not be called directly, but only via the BATaccessBegin() / BATaccessEnd() macros.
