Code review + tweaks to AMD's AOCL 2.0 PR (#349).
Details: - NOTE: This is a merge commit of 'master' of git://github.com/amd/blis into 'amd-master' of flame/blis. - Fixed a bug in the downstream value of BLIS_NUM_ARCHS, which was inadvertantly not incremented when the Zen2 subconfiguration was added. - In bli_gemm_front(), added a missing conditional constraint around the call to bli_gemm_small() that ensures that the computation precision of C matches the storage precision of C. - In bli_syrk_front(), reorganized and relocated the notrans/trans logic that existed around the call to bli_syrk_small() into bli_syrk_small() to minimize the calling code footprint and also to bring that code into stylistic harmony with similar code in bli_gemm_front() and bli_trsm_front(). Also, replaced direct accessing of obj_t fields with proper accessor static functions (e.g. 'a->dim[0]' becomes 'bli_obj_length( a )'). - Added #ifdef BLIS_ENABLE_SMALL_MATRIX guard around prototypes for bli_gemm_small(), bli_syrk_small(), and bli_trsm_small(). This is strictly speaking unnecessary, but it serves as a useful visual cue to those who may be reading the files. - Removed cpp macro-protected small matrix debugging code from bli_trsm_front.c. - Added a GCC_OT_9_1_0 variable to build/config.mk.in to facilitate gcc version check for availability of -march=znver2, and added appropriate support to configure script. - Cleanups to compiler flags common to recent AMD microarchitectures in config/zen/amd_config.mk, including: removal of -march=znver1 et al. from CKVECFLAGS (since the -march flag is added within make_defs.mk); setting CRVECFLAGS similarly to CKVECFLAGS. - Cleanups to config/zen/bli_cntx_init_zen.c. - Cleanups, added comments to config/zen/make_defs.mk. - Cleanups to config/zen2/make_defs.mk, including making use of newly- added GCC_OT_9_1_0 and existing GCC_OT_6_1_0 to choose the correct set of compiler flags based on the version of gcc being used. - Reverted downstream changes to test/test_gemm.c. - Various whitespace/comment changes. |

Minor bugfixes in sup dgemm implementation.
Details: - Fixed an obscure but in the bli_dgemmsup_rv_haswell_asm_5x8n() kernel that only affected the beta == 0, column-storage output case. Thanks to the BLAS test drivers for catching this bug. - Previously, bli_gemmsup_ref_var1n() and _var2m() were returning if k = 0, when the correct action would be to scale by beta (and then return). Thanks to the BLAS test drivers to catching this bug. - Changed the sup threshold behavior such that the sup implementation only kicks in if a matrix dimension is strictly less than (rather than less than or equal to) the threshold in question. - Initialize all thresholds to zero (instead of 10) by default in ref_kernels/bli_cntx_ref.c. This, combined with the above change to threshold testing means that calls to BLIS or BLAS with one or more matrix dimensions of zero will no longer trigger the sup implementation. - Added disabled debugging output to frame/3/bli_l3_sup.c (for future use, perhaps). |

Implemented gemm on skinny/unpacked matrices.
Details:
- Implemented a new sub-framework within BLIS to support the management
of code and kernels that specifically target matrix problems for which
at least one dimension is deemed to be small, which can result in long
and skinny matrix operands that are ill-suited for the conventional
level-3 implementations in BLIS. The new framework tackles the problem
in two ways. First the stripped-down algorithmic loops forgo the
packing that is famously performed in the classic code path. That is,
the computation is performed by a new family of kernels tailored
specifically for operating on the source matrices as-is (unpacked).
Second, these new kernels will typically (and in the case of haswell
and zen, do in fact) include separate assembly sub-kernels for
handling of edge cases, which helps smooth performance when performing
problems whose m and n dimension are not naturally multiples of the
register blocksizes. In a reference to the sub-framework's purpose of
supporting skinny/unpacked level-3 operations, the "sup" operation
suffix (e.g. gemmsup) is typically used to denote a separate namespace
for related code and kernels. NOTE: Since the sup framework does not
perform any packing, it targets row- and column-stored matrices A, B,
and C. For now, if any matrix has non-unit strides in both dimensions,
the problem is computed by the conventional implementation.
- Implemented the default sup handler as a front-end to two variants.
bli_gemmsup_ref_var2() provides a block-panel variant (in which the
2nd loop around the microkernel iterates over n and the 1st loop
iterates over m), while bli_gemmsup_ref_var1() provides a panel-block
variant (2nd loop over m and 1st loop over n). However, these variants
are not used by default and provided for reference only. Instead, the
default sup handler calls _var2m() and _var1n(), which are similar
to _var2() and _var1(), respectively, except that they defer to the
sup kernel itself to iterate over the m and n dimension, respectively.
In other words, these variants rely not on microkernels, but on
so-called "millikernels" that iterate along m and k, or n and k.
The benefit of using millikernels is a reduction of function call
and related (local integer typecast) overhead as well as the ability
for the kernel to know which micropanel (A or B) will change during
the next iteration of the 1st loop, which allows it to focus its
prefetching on that micropanel. (In _var2m()'s millikernel, the upanel
of A changes while the same upanel of B is reused. In _var1n()'s, the
upanel of B changes while the upanel of A is reused.)
- Added a new configure option, --[en|dis]able-sup-handling, which is
enabled by default. However, the default thresholds at which the
default sup handler is activated are set to zero for each of the m, n,
and k dimensions, which effectively disables the implementation. (The
default sup handler only accepts the problem if at least one dimension
is smaller than or equal to its corresponding threshold. If all
dimensions are larger than their thresholds, the problem is rejected
by the sup front-end and control is passed back to the conventional
implementation, which proceeds normally.)
- Added support to the cntx_t structure to track new fields related to
the sup framework, most notably:
- sup thresholds: the thresholds at which the sup handler is called.
- sup handlers: the address of the function to call to implement
the level-3 skinny/unpacked matrix implementation.
- sup blocksizes: the register and cache blocksizes used by the sup
implementation (which may be the same or different from those used
by the conventional packm-based approach).
- sup kernels: the kernels that the handler will use in implementing
the sup functionality.
- sup kernel prefs: the IO preference of the sup kernels, which may
differ from the preferences of the conventional gemm microkernels'
IO preferences.
- Added a bool_t to the rntm_t structure that indicates whether sup
handling should be enabled/disabled. This allows per-call control
of whether the sup implementation is used, which is useful for test
drivers that wish to switch between the conventional and sup codes
without having to link to different copies of BLIS. The corresponding
accessor functions for this new bool_t are defined in bli_rntm.h.
- Implemented several row-preferential gemmsup kernels in a new
directory, kernels/haswell/3/sup. These kernels include two general
implementation types--'rd' and 'rv'--for the 6x8 base shape, with
two specialized millikernels that embed the 1st loop within the kernel
itself.
- Added ref_kernels/3/bli_gemmsup_ref.c, which provides reference
gemmsup microkernels. NOTE: These microkernels, unlike the current
crop of conventional (pack-based) microkernels, do not use constant
loop bounds. Additionally, their inner loop iterates over the k
dimension.
- Defined new typedef enums:
- stor3_t: captures the effective storage combination of the level-3
problem. Valid values are BLIS_RRR, BLIS_RRC, BLIS_RCR, etc. A
special value of BLIS_XXX is used to denote an arbitrary combination
which, in practice, means that at least one of the operands is
stored according to general stride.
- threshid_t: captures each of the three dimension thresholds.
- Changed bli_adjust_strides() in bli_obj.c so that bli_obj_create()
can be passed "-1, -1" as a lazy request for row storage. (Note that
"0, 0" is still accepted as a lazy request for column storage.)
- Added support for various instructions to bli_x86_asm_macros.h,
including imul, vhaddps/pd, and other instructions related to integer
vectors.
- Disabled the older small matrix handling code inserted by AMD in
bli_gemm_front.c, since the sup framework introduced in this commit
is intended to provide a more generalized solution.
- Added test/sup directory, which contains standalone performance test
drivers, a Makefile, a runme.sh script, and an 'octave' directory
containing scripts compatible with GNU Octave. (They also may work
with matlab, but if not, they are probably close to working.)
- Reinterpret the storage combination string (sc_str) in the various
level-3 testsuite modules (e.g. src/test_gemm.c) so that the order
of each matrix storage char is "cab" rather than "abc".
- Comment updates in level-3 BLAS API wrappers in frame/compat.

Rewrote reference kernels to use #pragma omp simd.
Details:
- Rewrote level-1v, -1f, and -3 reference kernels in terms of simplified
indexing annotated by the #pragma omp simd directive, which a compiler
can use to vectorize certain constant-bounded loops. (The new kernels
actually use _Pragma("omp simd") since the kernels are defined via
templatizing macros.) Modest speedup was observed in most cases using
gcc 5.4.0, which may improve with newer versions. Thanks to Devin
Matthews for suggesting this via issue #286 and #259.
- Updated default blocksizes defined in ref_kernels/bli_cntx_ref.c to
be 4x16, 4x8, 4x8, and 4x4 for single, double, scomplex and dcomplex,
respectively, with a default row preference for the gemm ukernel. Also
updated axpyf, dotxf, and dotxaxpyf fusing factors to 8, 6, and 4,
respectively, for all datatypes.
- Modified configure to verify that -fopenmp-simd is a valid compiler
option (via a new detect/omp_simd/omp_simd_detect.c file).
- Added a new header in which prefetch macros are defined according to
which compiler is detected (via macros such as __GNUC__). These
prefetch macros are not yet employed anywhere, though.
- Updated the year in copyrights of template license headers in
build/templates and removed AMD as a default copyright holder.

Implemented a pool-based small block allocator.
Details:
- Implemented a sophisticated data structure and set of APIs that track
the small blocks of memory (around 80-100 bytes each) used when
creating nodes for control and thread trees (cntl_t and thrinfo_t) as
well as thread communicators (thrcomm_t). The purpose of the small
block allocator, or sba, is to allow the library to transition into a
runtime state in which it does not perform any calls to malloc() or
free() during normal execution of level-3 operations, regardless of
the threading environment (potentially multiple application threads
as well as multiple BLIS threads). The functionality relies on a new
data structure, apool_t, which is (roughly speaking) a pool of
arrays, where each array element is a pool of small blocks. The outer
pool, which is protected by a mutex, provides separate arrays for each
application thread while the arrays each handle multiple BLIS threads
for any given application thread. The design minimizes the potential
for lock contention, as only concurrent application threads would
need to fight for the apool_t lock, and only if they happen to begin
their level-3 operations at precisely the same time. Thanks to Kiran
Varaganti and AMD for requesting this feature.
- Added a configure option to disable the sba pools, which are enabled
by default; renamed the --[dis|en]able-packbuf-pools option to
--[dis|en]able-pba-pools; and rewrote the --help text associated with
this new option and consolidated it with the --help text for the
option associated with the sba (--[dis|en]able-sba-pools).
- Moved the membrk field from the cntx_t to the rntm_t. We now pass in
a rntm_t* to the bli_membrk_acquire() and _release() APIs, just as we
do for bli_sba_acquire() and _release().
- Replaced all calls to bli_malloc_intl() and bli_free_intl() that are
used for small blocks with calls to bli_sba_acquire(), which takes a
rntm (in addition to the bytes requested), and bli_sba_release().
These latter two functions reduce to the former two when the sba pools
are disabled at configure-time.
- Added rntm_t* arguments to various cntl_t and thrinfo_t functions, as
required by the new usage of bli_sba_acquire() and _release().
- Moved the freeing of "old" blocks (those allocated prior to a change
in the block_size) from bli_membrk_acquire_m() to the implementation
of the pool_t checkout function.
- Miscellaneous improvements to the pool_t API.
- Added a block_size field to the pblk_t.
- Harmonized the way that the trsm_ukr testsuite module performs packing
relative to that of gemmtrsm_ukr, in part to avoid the need to create
a packm control tree node, which now requires a rntm_t that has been
initialized with an sba and membrk.
- Re-enable explicit call bli_finalize() in testsuite so that users who
run the testsuite with memory tracing enabled can check for memory
leaks.
- Manually imported the compact/minor changes from

Handle edge cases, zero-filling in packm kernels.
Details:
- Updated the API and semantics of packm kernels such that they must now
handle edge cases, meaning that a c-by-k packm kernel must be able to
pack edge cases that are fewer than c rows/columns and be able to
zero-fill the remaining elements. They must also be able to zero-fill
the equivalent region when copying fewer than k columns/rows (which is
needed by trsm). The new packm kernel API is generally:
void packm_kernel
(
conj_t conja,
dim_t cdim,
dim_t n,
dim_t n_max,
ctype* restrict kappa,
ctype* restrict a, inc_t inca, inc_t lda,
ctype* restrict p, inc_t ldp,
cntx_t* restrict cntx
);
where cdim and n are the dimensions (short and long, respectively) of
the submatrix being copied from the source matrix A, and n_max is the
"full" long dimension (corresponding to the k dimension in gemm) of
the micropanel. The "full" short dimension (corresponding to the
register blocksize MR or NR) is not part of the API because it is
known intrinsically by the packm kernel implementation. Thanks to
Devin Matthews for prompting us to make this change (#282).
- Updated all reference packm kernels in ref_kernels/1m according to
above changes, as well as all optimized packm kernels (which only
consisted of those for knl).
- Bumped the major soname version number in 'so_version' to 2. At first
I was considering leaving it unchanged, but I couldn't escape the
reality that the packm kernel API is much closer to an expert API
than it is some obscure helper function interface within the framework
that nobody would ever notice.
- Removed reference packm kernels for mr/nr = 30. The only sub-config
that would have been using those kernels is knc, which is likely no
longer being used by very many people (if any). (This also mostly
offset the larger object code footprint incurred by moving the edge-
case handling into the individual packm kernels.)
- Fixed an obscure race condition for 3mh and 4mh induced methods in
which those implementations were modifying the contexts stored in the
gks rather than a local copy.
- Fixed a minor bug in the testsuite that prevented non-1m-based induced
method implementations of trsm from executing.

Remove UT-Austin from copyright headers' clause 3.
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.

Added mixed-precision support to 1m method.
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. |

Defined rntm_t to relocate cntx_t.thrloop (#235).
Details: - Defined a new struct datatype, rntm_t (runtime), to house the thrloop field of the cntx_t (context). The thrloop array holds the number of ways of parallelism (thread "splits") to extract per level-3 algorithmic loop until those values can be used to create a corresponding node in the thread control tree (thrinfo_t structure), which (for any given level-3 invocation) usually happens by the time the macrokernel is called for the first time. - Relocating the thrloop from the cntx_t remedies a thread-safety issue when invoking level-3 operations from two or more application threads. The race condition existed because the cntx_t, a pointer to which is usually queried from the global kernel structure (gks), is supposed to be a read-only. However, the previous code would write to the cntx_t's thrloop field *after* it had been queried, thus violating its read-only status. In practice, this would not cause a problem when a sequential application made a multithreaded call to BLIS, nor when two or more application threads used the same parallelization scheme when calling BLIS, because in either case all application theads would be using the same ways of parallelism for each loop. The true effects of the race condition were limited to situations where two or more application theads used *different* parallelization schemes for any given level-3 call. - In remedying the above race condition, the application or calling library can now specify the parallelization scheme on a per-call basis. All that is required is that the thread encode its request for parallelism into the rntm_t struct prior to passing the address of the rntm_t to one of the expert interfaces of either the typed or object APIs. This allows, for example, one application thread to extract 4-way parallelism from a call to gemm while another application thread requests 2-way parallelism. Or, two threads could each request 4-way parallelism, but from different loops. - A rntm_t* parameter has been added to the function signatures of most of the level-3 implementation stack (with the most notable exception being packm) as well as all level-1v, -1d, -1f, -1m, and -2 expert APIs. (A few internal functions gained the rntm_t* parameter even though they currently have no use for it, such as bli_l3_packm().) This required some internal calls to some of those functions to be updated since BLIS was already using those operations internally via the expert interfaces. For situations where a rntm_t object is not available, such as within packm/unpackm implementations, NULL is passed in to the relevant expert interfaces. This is acceptable for now since parallelism is not obtained for non-level-3 operations. - Revamped how global parallelism is encoded. First, the conventional environment variables such as BLIS_NUM_THREADS and BLIS_*_NT are only read once, at library initialization. (Thanks to Nathaniel Smith for suggesting this to avoid repeated calls getenv(), which can be slow.) Those values are recorded to a global rntm_t object. Public APIs, in bli_thread.c, are still available to get/set these values from the global rntm_t, though now the "set" functions have additional logic to ensure that the values are set in a synchronous manner via a mutex. If/when NULL is passed into an expert API (meaning the user opted to not provide a custom rntm_t), the values from the global rntm_t are copied to a local rntm_t, which is then passed down the function stack. Calling a basic API is equivalent to calling the expert APIs with NULL for the cntx and rntm parameters, which means the semantic behavior of these basic APIs (vis-a-vis multithreading) is unchanged from before. - Renamed bli_cntx_set_thrloop_from_env() to bli_rntm_set_ways_for_op() and reimplemented, with the function now being able to treat the incoming rntm_t in a manner agnostic to its origin--whether it came from the application or is an internal copy of the global rntm_t. - Removed various global runtime APIs for setting the number of ways of parallelism for individual loops (e.g. bli_thread_set_*_nt()) as well as the corresponding "get" functions. The new model simplifies these interfaces so that one must either set the total number of threads, OR set all of the ways of parallelism for each loop simultaneously (in a single function call). - Updated sandbox/ref99 according to above changes. - Rewrote/augmented docs/Multithreading.md to document the three methods (and two specific ways within each method) of requesting parallelism in BLIS. - Removed old, disabled code from bli_l3_thrinfo.c. - Whitespace changes to code (e.g. bli_obj.c) and docs/BuildSystem.md. |

Changed usage of virtual microkernel slots in cntx.
Details: - Changed the way virtual microkernels are handled in the context. Previously, there were query routines such as bli_cntx_get_l3_ukr_dt() which returned the native ukernel for a datatype if the method was equal to BLIS_NAT, or the virtual ukernel for that datatype if the method was some other value. Going forward, the context native and virtual ukernel slots will both be initialized to native ukernel function pointers for native execution, and for non-native execution the virtual ukernel pointer will be something else. This allows us to always query the virtual ukernel slot (from within, say, the macrokernel) without needing any logic in the query routine to decide which function pointer (native or virtual) to return. (Essentially, the logic has been shifted to init-time instead of compute-time.) This scheme will also allow generalized virtual ukernels as a way to insert extra logic in between the macrokernel and the native microkernel. - Initialize native contexts (in bli_cntx_ref.c) with native ukernel function addresses stored to the virtual ukernel slots pursuant to the above policy change. - Renamed all static functions that were native/virtual-ambiguous, such as bli_cntx_get_l3_ukr_dt() or bli_cntx_l3_ukr_prefers_cols_dt() pursuant to the above polilcy change. Those routines now use the substring "get_l3_vir_ukr" in their name instead of "get_l3_ukr". All of these functions were static functions defined in bli_cntx.h, and most uses were in level-3 front-ends and macrokernels. - Deprecated anti_pref bool_t in context, along with related functions such as bli_cntx_l3_ukr_eff_dislikes_storage_of(), now that 1m's panel-block execution is disabled. |

Renamed 1m packm kernels from _1e to _1er.
Details: - Renamed the reference packm kernels used by 1m. Previously, they used a _1e suffix, which was confusing since they packed to both 1e and 1r schemas. This was likely an artifact of the time when there were separate kernels for each schema before I decided to combine them into a single function (per datatype and panel dimension), and the 1e functions were the ones to inherit the 1r functionality. The kernels have now been renamed to use a _1er suffix. |

Fixed an obscure bug in the 1m implementation.
Details: - Fixed a bug in the way the bli_gemm1m_cntx_ref() function (defined in ref_kernels/bli_cntx_ref.c) initializes its context for 1m execution. Previously, the function probed the context that was in the process of being updated for use with 1m--this context being previously initialized/copied from a native context--for its storage preference to determine which "variant" (row- or column-oriented) of 1m would be needed. However, the _cntx_ref() function was not updating the method field of the context until AFTER this query, and the conditional which depended on it, had taken place, meaning the storage preference query function would mistakenly think the context was for native execution, since the context's method field would still be set to BLIS_NAT. This would lead it to incorrectly grab the storage preference of the complex domain microkernel rather than the corresponding real domain microkernel, which could cause the storage preference predicate to evaluate to the wrong value, which would lead to the _cntx_ref() function choosing the wrong variant. This could lead to undefined behavior at runtime. The method is now explicitly set within the context prior to calling the storage preference query function. - Updated comments in frame/ind/oapi/bli_l3_3m4m1m_oapi.c. - Fixed a typo in the commented-out CFLAGS in config/zen/make_defs.mk, which are appropriate for gcc 6.x and newer. (Mistakenly used -march=bdver4 instead of -march=znver1.) |

- Properly typecast integer arguments to match format specifier in various
calls to printf() in bli_l3_thrinfo.c, bli_cntx.c, bli_pool.c, and
bli_util_oapi.c.
- Fixed "unsigned less-than-comparison with zero" checks in bli_check.c,
bli_cntx.h.
- Fixed mis-typed enums in bli_cntx.c (e.g., l1mkr_t that should have been
l1fkr_t or l1vkr_t).
- Fixed instances of opid_t value BLIS_GEMM that should have been l3ukr_t
value BLIS_GEMM_UKR in bli_cntx_ref.c.
- NOTE: These issues were identified via compiler warnings when building

Implemented runtime kernel management.
Details: - Reworked the build system around a configuration registry file, named config_registry', that identifies valid configuration targets, their constituent sub-configurations, and the kernel sets that are needed by those sub-configurations. The build system now facilitates the building of a single library that can contains kernels and cache/register blocksizes for multiple configurations (microarchitectures). Reference kernels are also built on a per-configuration basis. - Updated the Makefile to use new variables set by configure via the config.mk.in template, such as CONFIG_LIST, KERNEL_LIST, and KCONFIG_MAP, in determining which sub-configurations (CONFIG_LIST) and kernel sets (KERNEL_LIST) are included in the library, and which make_defs.mk files' CFLAGS (KCONFIG_MAP) are used when compiling kernels. - Reorganized 'kernels' directory into a "flat" structure. Renamed kernel functions into a standard format that includes the kernel set name (e.g. 'haswell'). Created a "bli_kernels_<kernelset>.h" file in each kernels sub-directory. These files exist to provide prototypes for the kernels present in those directories. - Reorganized reference kernels into a top-level 'ref_kernels' directory. This directory includes a new source file, bli_cntx_ref.c (compiled on a per-configuration basis), that defines the code needed to initialize a reference context and a context for induced methods for the microarchitecture in question. - Rewrote make_defs.mk files in each configuration so that the compiler variables (e.g. CFLAGS) are "stored" (renamed) on a per-configuration basis. - Modified bli_config.h.in template so that bli_config.h is generated with #defines for the config (family) name, the sub-configurations that are associated with the family, and the kernel sets needed by those sub-configurations. - Deprecated all kernel-related information in bli_kernel.h and transferred what remains to new header files named "bli_arch_<configname>.h", which are conditionally #included from a new header bli_arch.h. These files are still needed to set library-wide parameters such as custom malloc()/free() functions or SIMD alignment values. - Added bli_cntx_init_<configname>.c files to each configuration directory. The files contain a function, named the same as the file, that initializes a "native" context for a particular configuration (microarchitecture). The idea is that optimized kernels, if available, will be initialized into these contexts. Other fields will retain pointers to reference functions, which will be compiled on a per-configuration basis. These bli_cntx_init_*() functions will be called during the initialization of the global kernel structure. They are thought of as initializing for "native" execution, but they also form the basis for contexts that use induced methods. These functions are prototyped, along with their _ref() and _ind() brethren, by prototype-generating macros in bli_arch.h. - Added a new typedef enum in bli_type_defs.h to define an arch_t, which identifies the various sub-configurations. - Redesigned the global kernel structure (gks) around a 2D array of cntx_t structures (pointers to cntx_t, actually). The first dimension is indexed over arch_t and the inner dimension is the ind_t (induced method) for each microarchitecture. When a microarchitecture (configuration) is "registered" at init-time, the inner array for that configuration in the 2D array is initialized (and allocated, if it hasn't been already). The cntx_t slot for BLIS_NAT is initialized immediately and those for other induced method types are initialized and cached on-demand, as needed. At cntx_t registration, we also store function pointers to cntx_init functions that will initialize (a) "reference" contexts and (b) contexts for use with induced methods. We don't cache the full contexts for reference contexts since they are rarely needed. The functions that initialize these two kinds of contexts are generated automatically for each targeted sub-configuration from cpp-templatized code at compile-time. Induced method contexts that need "stage" adjustments can still obtain them via functions in bli_cntx_ind_stage.c. - Added new functions and functionality to bli_cntx.c, such as for setting the level-1f, level-1v, and packm kernels, and for converting a native context into one for executing an induced method. - Moved the checking of register/cache blocksize consistency from being cpp macros in bli_kernel_macro_defs.h to being runtime checks defined in bli_check.c and called from bli_gks_register_cntx() at the time that the global kernel structure's internal context is initialized for a given microarchitecture/configuration. - Deprecated all of the old per-operation bli_*_cntx.c files and removed the previous operation-level cntx_t_init()/_finalize() invocations. Instead, we now query the gks for a suitable context, usually via bli_gks_query_cntx(). - Deprecated support for the 3m2 and 3m3 induced methods. (They required hackery that I was no longer willing to support.) - Consolidated the 1e and 1r packm kernels for any given register blocksize into a single kernel that will branch on the schema and support packing to both formats. - Added the cntx_t* argument to all packm kernel signatures. - Deprecated the local function pointer array in all bli_packm_cxk*.c files and instead obtain the packm kernel from the cntx_t. - Added bli_calloc_intl(), which serves as the calloc-equivalent to to bli_malloc_intl(). Useful when we wish to allocate and initialize to zero/NULL. - Converted existing cpp macro functions defined in bli_blksz.h, bli_func.h, bli_cntx.h into static functions. |
