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.
Details:
- Updated test driver source in test, test/3, test/1m4m, and
test/mixeddt to iterate through the problem space backwards. This
can help avoid certain situations where the CPU frequency does not
immediately throttle up to its maximum. Thanks to Robert van de
Geijn for recommending this fix (originally made to test/sup drivers
in 57e422a).
- Applied off-by-one matlab output bugfix from b6017e5 to test drivers
in test, test/3, test/1m4m, and test/mixeddt directories.
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:
- Removed the dtime (delta time, or wallclock time) column from the
matlab output of all test drivers in test, test/3m4m, test/studies.
This value was rarely (if ever) really needed and usually only served
to take up screen space.
- Updated format specifier in test/studies/skx to use %7.2f instead of
%6.3f.
- For the test drivers in 'test' directory, added an initial line of
output that sets last entry of matlab matrix to zero in order to
induce a pre-allocation of the entire array of performance results.
Details:
- Converted most C preprocessor macros in bli_param_macro_defs.h and
bli_obj_macro_defs.h to static functions.
- Reshuffled some functions/macros to bli_misc_macro_defs.h and also
between bli_param_macro_defs.h and bli_obj_macro_defs.h.
- Changed obj_t-initializing macros in bli_type_defs.h to static
functions.
- Removed some old references to BLIS_TWO and BLIS_MINUS_TWO from
bli_constants.h.
- Whitespace changes in select files (four spaces to single tab).
Details:
- Merged contributions made by AMD via 'amd' branch (see summary below).
Special thanks to AMD for their contributions to-date, especially with
regard to intrinsic- and assembly-based kernels.
- Added column storage output cases to microkernels in
bli_gemm_zen_asm_d6x8.c and bli_gemmtrsm_l_zen_asm_d6x8.c. Even with
the extra cost of transposing the microtile in registers, this is
much faster than using the general storage case when the underlying
matrix is column-stored.
- Added s and d assembly-based zen gemmtrsm_u microkernel (including
column storage optimization mentioned above).
- Updated zen sub-configuration to reflect presence of new native
kernels.
- Temporarily reverted zen sub-configuration's level-3 cache blocksizes
to smaller haswell values.
- Temporarily disabled small matrix handling for zen configuration
family in config/zen/bli_family_zen.h.
- Updated zen CFLAGS according to changes in 1e4365b.
- Updated haswell microkernels such that:
- only one vzeroupper instruction is called prior to returning
- movapd/movupd are used in leiu of movaps/movups for double-real
microkernels. (Note that single-real microkernels still use
movaps/movups.)
- Added kernel prototypes to kernels/zen/bli_kernels_zen.h, which is
now included via frame/include/bli_arch_config.h.
- Minor updates to bli_amaxv_ref.c (and to inlined "test" implementation
in testsuite/src/test_amaxv.c).
- Added early return for alpha == 0 in bli_dotxv_ref.c.
- Integrated changes from f07b176, including a fix for undefined
behavior when executing the 1m method under certain conditions.
- Updated config_registry; no longer need haswell kernels for zen
sub-configuration.
- Tweaked marginal and pass thresholds for dotxf.
- Reformatted level-1v, -1f, and -3 amd kernels and inserted additional
comments.
- Updated LICENSE file to explicitly mention that parts are copyright
UT-Austin and AMD.
- Added AMD copyright to header templates in build/templates.
Summary of previous changes from 'amd' branch.
- Added s and d assembly-based zen gemm microkernels (d6x8 and d8x6) and
s and d assembly-based zen gemmtrsm_l microkernels (d6x8).
- Added s and d intrinsics-based zen kernels for amaxv, axpyv, dotv, dotxv,
and scalv, with extra-unrolling variants for axpyv and scalv.
- Added a small matrix handler to bli_gemm_front(), with the handler
implemented in kernels/zen/3/bli_gemm_small_matrix.c.
- Added additional logic to sumsqv that first attempts to compute the
sum of the squares via dotv(). If there is a floating-point exception
(FE_OVERFLOW), then the previous (numerically conservative) code is
used; otherwise, the result of dotv() is square-rooted and stored as
the result. This new implementation is only enabled when FE_OVERFLOW
is #defined. If the macro is not #defined, then the previous
implementation is used.
- Added axpyv and dotv standalone test drivers to test directory.
- Added zen support to old cpuid_x86.c driver in build/auto-detect/old.
- Added thread-local and __attribute__-related macros to bli_macro_defs.h.
