Details:
- Changed BLIS_NUM_ARCHS from a cpp macro definition to the last enum
value in the arch_t enum. This means that it no longer needs to get
updated manually whenever new subconfigurations are added to BLIS.
Also removed the explicit initial index assigment of 0 from the
first enum value, which was unnecessary due to how the C language
standard mandates indexing of enum values. Thanks to Devin Matthews
for originally submitting this as a PR in #446.
- Updated docs/ConfigurationHowTo.md to reflect the aforementioned
change.
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:
- The docs/ConfigurationHowTo.md document was written with examples that
did not yet contain the skx sub-configuration, but the previous commit
included bli_arch.c code copied and pasted from a recent commit that
does support skx. To keep things consistent, I've removed skx from the
recently-added ConfigurationHowTo.md code snippet.
Details:
- Added missing language directing the reader to modify the config_name
string array in bli_arch.c when adding a new sub-configuration. Thanks
to Devangi Parikh for reporting this missing section.
Details:
- Modified a few sections to take advantage of a feature of markdown
that allows a bullet or enumeration to have multiple paragraphs. This
is a trial run to make sure the indentation looks good when rendered
in a web browser.
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).
Details:
- Within the documents in docs/*.md, reverted links to other local
documents to relative paths.
- Fixed some links/documents that did not yet have the '.md' suffix.
- Testing whether we can use relative links ('docs/BLISTypedAPI.md')
from within README.md.
Details:
- Updated most markdown links in the documents/wikis to use absolute
paths instead of the relative paths that were in use previously.
A few links were not updated, except for adding a ".md" to reflect
the documents' new names, in order to test whether relative
linking still works.
Details:
- Exported all github wikis to a new 'docs' directory.
- Renamed 'BLISAPIQuickReference' wiki to 'BLISTypedAPI' and removed
all cntx_t* arguments from the (now non-expert) APIs (with the
exception of the kernel APIs).
- Added section to BuildSystem documenting new ARG_MAX hack.
