- Developed new AVX512 DGEMV kernels for Zen4/5 architectures and
AVX2 kernels for Zen1/2/3 architectures. These kernels are written
from the ground up and are independent of fused kernels.
- The DGEMV primary kernel processes the calculation in chunks of
8 columns. Fringe columns (sizes 1 to 7) are handled by fringe
kernels, which are invoked by the primary kernel as needed.
- Implemented the kernels by computing the dot product of matrix A
columns with vector x in chunks of 32 elements, storing the results
in accumulator registers. Fringe elements are handled in chunks
of 16, 8, etc. The data in the accumulator registers is then reduced
and added to vector y.

- AVX512 specific DGEMV native kernels are added for Zen4/5
architectures to handle the NO_TRANSPOSE cases and are independent of
the AXPYF fused kernels.
- The following set of kernels biased towards the n-dimension perform
beta scaling of y vector within the kernel itself and handle cases
where n is less than 5:
- bli_dgemv_n_zen_int_32x8n_avx512( ... )
- bli_dgemv_n_zen_int_32x4n_avx512( ... )
- bli_dgemv_n_zen_int_32x2n_avx512( ... )
- bli_dgemv_n_zen_int_32x1n_avx512( ... )
- The bli_dgemv_n_zen_int_16mx8_avx512( ... ) is biased towards the
m-dimension and for this kernel beta scaling is handled beforehand
within the framework.
- Added unit-tests for the new kernels.
- AVX2 path for Zen/2/3 architectures still follows the old approach of
using fused kernel, namely AXPYF, to perform the GEMV operation.

- In GEMV variant 1, the input matrix A is in row major. X vector
has to be of unit stride if the operation is to be vectorized.
- In cases when X vector is non-unit stride, vectorization of the GEMV
operation inside the kernel has been ensured by packing the input X
vector to a temporary buffer with unit stride. Currently, the
packing is done using the SCAL2V.
- In case of DGEMV, X vector is scaled by alpha as part of packing.
In CGEMV and ZGEMV, alpha is passed as 1 while packing.
- The temporary buffer created is released once the GEMV operation
is complete.
- In DGEMV variant 1, moved problem decomposition for Zen architecture
to the DOTXF kernel.
- Removed flag check based kernel dispatch logic from DGEMV. Now,
kernels will be picked from the context for non-avx machines. For
avx machines, the kernel(s) to be dispatched is(are) assigned to
the function pointer in the unf_var layer.

- In variant 2 of GEMV, A matrix is in column major. Y vector has
to be of unit stride if the operation is to be vectorized.
- In cases when Y vector is non-unit stride, vectorization of the
GEMV operation inside the kernel has been ensured by packing the
input Y vector to a temporary buffer with unit stride. As part of
the packing Y is scaled by beta to reduce the number of times Y
vector is to be loaded.
- After performing the GEMV operation, the results in the temporary
buffer are copied to the original buffer and the temporary one is
released.
- In DGEMV var 2, moved problem decomposition for Zen architecture
to the AXPYF kernel.
- Removed flag check based kernel dispatch logic from DGEMV. Now,
kernels will be picked from the context for non-avx machines. For
avx machines, the kernel(s) to be dispatched is(are) assigned to

- In cases when incy != 1, a buffer is created for y vector. The
contents of vector y is scaled by beta and stored in this buffer.
- After performing the compute using ZAXPYF kernel, the results in
y buffer memory is copied back to the orginal buffer using ZCOPYV.
- In cases when alpha is zero, we only scale the y vector by beta
without using the buffer and return.
- The kernels are picked based on the architecture ID. For any zen
based architecture, AVX2 kernels are invoked. For other, the
kernels are invoked based on the context.
- In ZSCAL2V, query for the context if NULL pointer is passed.

HPL script was using BLIS manual way to set threading, i.e. setting
BLIS_IC_NT explicitly. This causes bli_rntm_num_threads() to return
-1, which wasn't trapped in parallelised BLAS1 and BLAS2 routines.
Fix: if this occurs, set local number of threads based on product of
BLIS_JC_NT * BLIS_PC_NT * BLIS_IC_NT * BLIS_JR_NT * BLIS_IR_NT values.
Note: BLIS_PC_NT should always be 1, but this environment variable
is currently being read (contrary to documentation), so include it
for now.

- sgemv calls a multi-threading friendly kernel whenever it is compiled
with open mp and multi-threading enabled. However it was observed that
this kernel is not suited for scenarios where sgemv is invoked in a
single-threaded context (eg: sgemv from ST sgemm fringe kernels and with
matrix blocking). Falling back to the default single-threaded sgemv
kernel resulted in better performance for this scenario.

Summary:
1. This commit fixed issue for gemv and axpy API’s.
2. The BLIS binary with dynamic dispatch feature was
crashing on non-zen CPUs (specifically CPUs without
AVX2 support).
3. The crash was caused by un-supported instructions
in zen optimized kernels.The issue is fixed by calling
only reference kernels if the architecture detected at
runtime is not zen, zen2 or zen3.

Details:
- After merging PR #303, at Isuru's request, I removed the use of
BLIS_EXPORT_BLIS from all function prototypes *except* those that we
potentially wish to be exported in shared/dynamic libraries. In other
words, I removed the use of BLIS_EXPORT_BLIS from all prototypes of
functions that can be considered private or for internal use only.
This is likely the last big modification along the path towards
implementing the functionality spelled out in issue #248. Thanks
again to Isuru Fernando for his initial efforts of sprinkling the
export macros throughout BLIS, which made removing them where
necessary relatively painless. Also, I'd like to thank Tony Kelman,
Nathaniel Smith, Ian Henriksen, Marat Dukhan, and Matthew Brett for
participating in the initial discussion in issue #37 that was later
summarized and restated in issue #248.
