Marking a read or write as _volatile_ tells the compiler that it really must do
that action, and in the exact order that we wrote it out. It says that there

might end up changing `a` either before or after the change to `c` (since the
value of `a` doesn't affect the write to `c`), but the write to `d` will
_always_ happen after the write to `c` even though the compiler doesn't see any
direct data dependency there.
If you ever use volatile stuff on other platforms it's important to note that
volatile doesn't make things thread-safe, you still need atomic for that.
However, the GBA doesn't have threads, so we don't have to worry about thread
safety concerns.
Accordingly, our first bit of code for our library will be a _newtype_ over a
normal `*mut T` so that it has volatile reads and writes as the default. We'll
cover the details later on when we try writing a `hello2` program, once we know
more of what's going on.

# Ch 2: User Input
It's all well and good to draw three pixels, but they don't do anything yet. We
want them to to something, and for that we need to get some input from the user.
The GBA, as I'm sure you know, has an arrow pad, A and B, L and R, Start and
Select. That's a little more than the NES/GB/CGB had, and a little less than the
SNES had. As you can guess, we get key state info from an IO register.
Also, we will need a way to keep the program from running "too fast". On a
modern computer or console you do this with vsync info from the GPU and Monitor,
and on the GBA we'll be using vsync info from an IO register that tracks what
the display hardware is doing.

<p>It's all well and good to draw three pixels, but they don't do anything yet. We
want them to to something, and for that we need to get some input from the user.</p>
<p>The GBA, as I'm sure you know, has an arrow pad, A and B, L and R, Start and
Select. That's a little more than the NES/GB/CGB had, and a little less than the
SNES had. As you can guess, we get key state info from an IO register.</p>
<p>Also, we will need a way to keep the program from running &quot;too fast&quot;. On a
modern computer or console you do this with vsync info from the GPU and Monitor,
and on the GBA we'll be using vsync info from an IO register that tracks what
the display hardware is doing.</p>

value of <code>a</code> doesn't affect the write to <code>c</code>), but the write to <code>d</code> will
<em>always</em> happen after the write to <code>c</code> even though the compiler doesn't see any
direct data dependency there.</p>
<p>If you ever use volatile stuff on other platforms it's important to note that
volatile doesn't make things thread-safe, you still need atomic for that.
However, the GBA doesn't have threads, so we don't have to worry about thread
safety concerns.</p>
<p>Accordingly, our first bit of code for our library will be a <em>newtype</em> over a
normal <code>*mut T</code> so that it has volatile reads and writes as the default. We'll
cover the details later on when we try writing a <code>hello2</code> program, once we know
more of what's going on.</p>

Select. That's a little more than the NES/GB/CGB had, and a little less than the
SNES had. As you can guess, we get key state info from an IO register.</p>
<p>Also, we will need a way to keep the program from running &quot;too fast&quot;. On a
modern computer or console you do this with vsync info from the GPU and Monitor,

the display hardware is doing.</p>
