Details:
- Removed explicit reference to The University of Texas at Austin in the
third clause of the license comment blocks of all relevant files and
replaced it with a more all-encompassing "copyright holder(s)".
- Removed duplicate words ("derived") from a few kernels' license
comment blocks.
- Homogenized license comment block in kernels/zen/3/bli_gemm_small.c
with format of all other comment blocks.
Details:
- Lifted the constraint that 1m only be used when all operands' storage
datatypes (along with the computation datatype) are equal. Now, 1m may
be used as long as all operands are stored in the complex domain. This
change largely consisted of adding the ability to pack to 1e and 1r
formats from one precision to another. It also required adding logic
for handling complex values of alpha to bli_packm_blk_var1_md()
(similar to the logic in bli_packm_blk_var1()).
- Fixed a bug in several virtual microkernels (bli_gemm_md_c2r_ref.c,
bli_gemm1m_ref.c, and bli_gemmtrsm1m_ref.c) that resulted in the wrong
ukernel output preference field being read. Previously, the preference
for the native complex ukernel was being read instead of the pref for
the native real domain ukernel. This bug would not manifest if the
preference for the native complex ukernel happened to be equal to that
of the native real ukernel.
- Added support for testing mixed-precision 1m execution via the gemm
module of the testsuite.
- Tweaked/simplified bli_gemm_front() and bli_gemm_md.c so that pack
schemas are always read from the context, rather than trying to
sometimes embed them directly to the A and B objects. (They are still
embedded, but now uniformly only after reading the schemas from the
context.)
- Redefined cpp macro bli_l3_ind_recast_1m_params() as a static function
and renamed to bli_gemm_ind_recast_1m_params() (since gemm is the only
consumer).
- Added 1m optimization logic (via bli_gemm_ind_recast_1m_params()) to
bli_gemm_ker_var2_md().
- Added explicit handling for beta == 1 and beta == 0 in the reference
gemm1m virtual microkernel in ref_kernels/ind/bli_gemm1m_ref.c.
- Rewrote various level-0 macro defs, including axpyris, axpbyris,
scal2ris, and xpbyris (and their conjugating counterparts) to
explicitly support three operand types and updated invocations to
xpbyris in bli_gemmtrsm1m_ref.c.
- Query and use the storage datatype of the packed object instead of the
storage datatype of the source object in bli_packm_blk_var1().
- Relocated and renamed frame/ind/misc/bli_l3_ind_opt.h to
frame/3/gemm/ind/bli_gemm_ind_opt.h.
- Various whitespace/comment updates.
Details:
- Removed four trailing spaces after "BLIS" that occurs in most files'
commented-out license headers.
- Added UT copyright lines to some files. (These files previously had
only AMD copyright lines but were contributed to by both UT and AMD.)
- In some files' copyright lines, expanded 'The University of Texas' to
'The University of Texas at Austin'.
- Fixed various typos/misspellings in some license headers.
Details:
- Implemented the 1m method for inducing complex domain matrix
multiplication. 1m support has been added to all level-3 operations,
including trsm, and is now the default induced method when native
complex domain gemm microkernels are omitted from the configuration.
- Updated _cntx_init() operations to take a datatype parameter. This was
needed for the corresponding function for 1m (because 1m requires us
to choose between column-oriented or row-oriented execution, which
requires us to query the context for the storage preference of the
gemm microkernel, which requires knowing the datatype) but I decided
that it made sense for consistency to add the parameter to all other
cntx initialization functions as well, even though those functions
don't use the parameter.
- Updated bli_cntx_set_blkszs() and bli_gks_cntx_set_blkszs() to take
a second scalar for each blocksize entry. The semantic meaning of the
two scalars now is that the first will scale the default blocksize
while the second will scale the maximum blocksize. This allows scaling
the two independently, and was needed to support 1m, which requires
scaling for a register blocksize but not the register storage
blocksize (ie: "packdim") analogue.
- Deprecated bli_blksz_reduce_dt_to() and defined two new functions,
bli_blksz_reduce_def_to() and bli_blksz_reduce_max_to(), for reducing
default and maximum blocksizes to some desired blocksize multiple.
These functions are needed in the updated definitions of
bli_cntx_set_blkszs() and bli_gks_cntx_set_blkszs().
- Added support for the 1e and 1r packing schemas to packm, including
1e/1r packing kernels.
- Added a minor optimization to bli_gemm_ker_var2() that allows, under
certain circumstances (specifically, real domain beta and row- or
column-stored matrix C), the real domain macrokernel and microkernel
to be called directly, rather than using the virtual microkernel
via the complex domain macrokernel, which carries a slight additional
amount of overhead.
- Added 1m support to the testsuite.
- Added 1m support to Makefile and runme.sh in test/3m4m. Also simplified
some code in test_gemm.c driver.
