Details:
- Textually replaced nearly all non-comment instances of bool_t with the
C99 bool type. A few remaining instances, such as those in the files
bli_herk_x_ker_var2.c, bli_trmm_xx_ker_var2.c, and
bli_trsm_xx_ker_var2.c, were promoted to dim_t since they were being
used not for boolean purposes but to index into an array.
- This commit constitutes the third phase of a transition toward using
C99's bool instead of bool_t, which was raised in issue #420. The first
phase, which cleaned up various typecasts in preparation for using
bool as the basis for bool_t (instead of gint_t), was implemented by
commit a69a4d7. The second phase, which redefined the bool_t typedef
in terms of bool (from gint_t), was implemented by commit 2c554c2.
Details:
- Changed all occurrances of
micro-kernel -> microkernel
macro-kernel -> macrokernel
micro-panel -> micropanel
in all markdown documents in 'docs' directory. This change is being
made since we've reached the point in adoption and acceptance of
BLIS's insights where words such as "microkernel" are no longer new,
and therefore now merit being unhyphenated.
- Updated "Implementation Notes" sections of KernelsHowTo.md, which
still contained references to nonexistent cpp macros such as
BLIS_DEFAULT_MR_? and BLIS_PACKDIM_MR_?.
- Added 'run-fast' and 'check-fast' targets to testsuite/Makefile.
- Minor updates to Testsuite.md, including suggesting use of
'make check' and 'make check-fast' when running from the local
testsuite directory.
- Added a comment to top-level Makefile explaining the purpose behind
the TESTSUITE_WRAPPER variable, which at first glance appears to serve
no purpose.
Details:
- Defined a new level-1d operation called 'shiftd', including object and
typed APIs. This operation adds a scalar value to every element along
an arbitrary diagonal of a matrix. Currently, shiftd is implemented in
terms of the addv kernel. (The scalar is passed in as the x vector
with an increment of zero.)
- Replaced ad-hoc usage of setd and addd (after creating a temporary
matrix object) with use of shiftd, which is much more concise, in
various test driver files in the testsuite. Similar changes were made
to the standalone test drivers and the example code.
- Added documentation entries in BLISObjectAPI.md and BLISTypedAPI.md
for bli_shiftd() and bli_?shiftd(), respectively.
- Added observed object properties to level-1d documentation in
BLISObjectAPI.md.
Details:
- Updated the typed and object APIs to include language on the rntm_t
parameters in the expert interfaces.
- Updated README to include link to object API.
Details:
- Filled in remaining section on object creation function reference
of BLISObjectAPI.md. All object management functions demonstrated as
part of the example code in examples/oapi are now documented, as well
as some other functions that are not shown in the example code.
- Updated variuos links (mostly in function index) to correctly point to
the object API reference instead of the typed API reference.
- Added documentation to getijm, setijm.
Details:
- Added documentation to docs/BLISObjectAPI.md for a handful of
commonly-used obj_t accessor functions.
- Minor updates to docs/BLISTypedAPI.md.
Details:
- Deleted some lines from the API function signatures that did not
belong (and were only left over from the copy-paste of the typed API).
- Fixed some paragraph-in-bullet indentation.
Details:
- Added first draft of BLISObjectAPI.md. (Object management section is
still missing.)
- Small fixes to BLISTypedAPI.md found while writing BLISObjectAPI.md.
- In various .md files, changed ``` verbatim blocks to language
attributes (e.g. ```c for C code).
