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:
- Removed BLIS_CONTIG_STRIDE_ALIGN_SIZE from bli_config.h of all
configurations. It was already going unused in packm_init() since the
recent 4m/3m commit. This setting was rarely, if ever, useful, and its
existence only posed a potential risk for 4m/3m-based implementations.
- Removed BLIS_CONTIG_STRIDE_ALIGN_SIZE usage from mem_pool_macro_defs.h.
- Updated comments regarding CONTIG_STRIDE_ALIGN_SIZE in template
micro-kernels.
Details:
- Standard names for reference kernels (levels-1v, -1f and 3) are now
macro constants. Examples:
BLIS_SAXPYV_KERNEL_REF
BLIS_DDOTXF_KERNEL_REF
BLIS_ZGEMM_UKERNEL_REF
- Developers no longer have to name all datatype instances of a kernel
with a common base name; [sdcz] datatype flavors of each kernel or
micro-kernel (level-1v, -1f, or 3) may now be named independently.
This means you can now, if you wish, encode the datatype-specific
register blocksizes in the name of the micro-kernel functions.
- Any datatype instances of any kernel (1v, 1f, or 3) that is left
undefined in bli_kernel.h will default to the corresponding reference
implementation. For example, if BLIS_DGEMM_UKERNEL is left undefined,
it will be defined to be BLIS_DGEMM_UKERNEL_REF.
- Developers no longer need to name level-1v/-1f kernels with multiple
datatype chars to match the number of types the kernel WOULD take in
a mixed type environment, as in bli_dddaxpyv_opt(). Now, one char is
sufficient, as in bli_daxpyv_opt().
- There is no longer a need to define an obj_t wrapper to go along with
your level-1v/-1f kernels. The framework now prvides a _kernel()
function which serves as the obj_t wrapper for whatever kernels are
specified (or defaulted to) via bli_kernel.h
- Developers no longer need to prototype their kernels, and thus no
longer need to include any prototyping headers from within
bli_kernel.h. The framework now generates kernel prototypes, with the
proper type signature, based on the kernel names defined (or defaulted
to) via bli_kernel.h.
- If the complex datatype x (of [cz]) implementation of the gemm micro-
kernel is left undefined by bli_kernel.h, but its same-precision real
domain equivalent IS defined, BLIS will use a 4m-based implementation
for the datatype x implementations of all level-3 operations, using
only the real gemm micro-kernel.
Details:
- Removed support for duplication from the gemmtrsm/trsm micro-kernels
and all framework code.
- Updated test suite modules according to above changes.
Details:
- Updated level-1f kernels for x86_64 and bgq to use renamed fusing factor
macros. Meant to include this in 5e54f46c. Thanks to Fran for pointing
this out.
Details:
- Added a new cpp macro in bli_config.h, BLIS_INT_TYPE_SIZE, which can be
assigned values of 32, 64, or some other value. The former two result in
defining gint_t/guint_t in terms of 32- or 64-bit integers, while the latter
causes integers to be defined in terms of a default type (e.g. long int).
- Updated bli_config.h in reference and clarksville configurations according
to above changes.
- Updated test drivers in test and testsuite to avoid type warnings associated
with format specifiers not matching the types of their arguments to printf()
and scanf().
- Inserted missing #include "bli_system.h" into blis.h (which was slated for
inclusion in d141f9eeb6).
- Added explicit typecasting of dim_t and inc_t to macros in
bli_blas_macro_defs.h (which are used in BLAS compatibility layer).
- Slight changes to CREDITS and INSTALL files.
- Slight tweaks to Windows build system, mostly in the form of switching to
Windows-style CRLF newlines for certain files.
Details:
- Commented out a !include statement that was attempting to include a
version file that does not yet exist. For now, the version string is
hard-coded into defs.mk.
Details:
- Added a 'windows' directory, which contains a Windows build system
similar to that of libflame's. Thanks to Martin for getting this up
and running.
- Spun off system header #includes into bli_system.h, which is included
in blis.h
- Added a Windows section to bli_clock.c (similar to libflame's).
