Details:
- Added two more arguments to the gemm and gemmtrsm microkernels: the
addresses of the next micro-panels of A and B. By passing these
pointers into the micro-kernel, we allow the micro-kernel author to
prefetch micro-panels of A and B as necessary (though this is
completely optional; these addresses may also be safely ignored).
- Updated all seven macro-kernels so that they compute and pass in
a_next and b_next. Note that ONLY the gemm macro-kernel computes
a_next and b_next with the precise semantics we want. I will go back
and fix the other macro-kernels in the near future.
- Added 'restrict' to various micro-kernels from which it was missing.
Details:
- Updated frame/util/dupl/bli_dupl_unb_var1.c to utilize PACKNR and NR
explicitly so navigate b1 so that situations where PACKNR > NR are
supported.
- Moved the 4x2 and 4x4 reference micro-kernels in frame/3/gemm/ukernels and
frame/3/trsm/ukernels to kernels/c99/.
- Updated clarksville and flame configurations.
Details:
- Fixed a bug in reference implementation of dupl (bli_dupl_unb_var1.c),
which resulted in incorrect duplication.
- Updated old test drivers according to recently updated packm control tree
creation interface.
- Added 'restrict' to x86 gemm microkernel interface.
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.
Details:
- Removed #include of "blis2.h" from various lower-level, operation-specific
header files throughout the framework. Given that these low-level headers
are included within #blis2.h in a very specific order, #include'ing blis2.h
within them directly is unnecessary.
Details:
- Renamed x86 and x86_64 kernels to contain a 'd' before the fusing shape
to emphasize that the fusing shape is not for all datatype instances, but
rather just for one (that of double-precision real). Other fusing shapes
would be proportional to their precision and domain "byte footprints".
- Corresponding changes to config/clarksville/bl2_kernel.h.
Details:
- Added/renamed packm, unpackm kernels.
- Added machine value routines.
- Added param_map facility.
- Renamed AUTHORS to CREDITS.
- Added Makefile; continued to expand upon existing configure script.
- #define fuse_fac macros in operation headers if not defined already
(by the user in bl2_kernels.h).
