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:
- 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:
- Fixed a bug that manifested as improperly-computed 1-norm for vectors
and matrices. This is one of the few operations in BLIS that does not
have its own test module within the testsuite, hence why it went
undetected for so long. The bad 1-norms were being used to normalize
matrices in the testsuite after initialization, which led to some
matrices containing a combination of "large" and "small" values. This
tended to push the residuals computed after each test away from zero.
In some cases, they were off *just* enough to the testsuite to label
it a "failure". Many thanks to Jeff Hammond for reporting this bug.
(Wonky details: the bug was due to improperly-defined level-0 scalar
macros for abval2, an operation that computes the absolute square,
or complex magnitude/modulus. Certain complex domain instances of
abval2 were being incorrectly defined in terms of real-only solutions,
leading to bad results. This level-0 operation forms the basis of
norm1v/norm1m. absq2 was also affected, but almost nothing uses
this operation.)
Details:
- Updated copyright headers to include "at Austin" in the name of the
University of Texas.
- Updated the copyright years of a few headers to 2014 (from 2011 and
2012).
Details:
- Added set of basic scalar macros that take arguments' real and
imaginary components separately, named like the previous set except
with the "ris" (instead of "s") suffix.
- Redefined the previous set of scalar macros (those that take arguments
"whole") in terms of the new "ri" set.
- Renamed setris and getris macros to sets and gets.
- Renamed setimag0 macros to seti0s.
- Use bli_?1 macro instead of a local constant in bla_trmv.c, bla_trsv.c.
Details:
- Added support for C99 complex types to bli_type_defs.h and overloaded
complex arithmetic to the scalar-level macros in include/level0. This
includes a somewhat substantial reorganization and re-layering of much
of the existing machinery present in the level0 macros.
- Added new #define for BLIS_ENABLE_C99_COMPLEX to bli_config.h files,
commented-out by default, which optionally enables the use of built-in
C99 complex types and arithmetic.
- Minor changes to clarksville and reference configs' make_defs.mk files.
- Removed macro definitions from bli_param_macro_defs.h which was not being
used (bli_proj_dt_to_real_if_imag_eq0).
Details:
- Changed all filename and function prefixes from 'bl2' to 'bli'.
- Changed the "blis2.h" header filename to "blis.h" and changed all
corresponding #include statements accordingly.
- Fixed incorrect association for Fran in CREDITS file.
