Details:
- Expanded the BLAS compatibility layer to include support for
?axpby_() and ?gemm_batch_(). The former is a straightforward
BLAS-like interface into the axpbyv operation while the latter
implements a batched gemm via loops over bli_?gemm(). Also
expanded the CBLAS compatibility layer to include support for
cblas_?axpby() and cblas_?gemm_batch(), which serve as wrappers to
the corresponding (new) BLAS-like APIs. Thanks to Meghana Vankadari
for submitting these new APIs via #566.
- Fixed a long-standing bug in common.mk that for some reason never
manifested until now. Previously, CBLAS source files were compiled
*without* the location of cblas.h being specified via a -I flag.
I'm not sure why this worked, but it may be due to the fact that
the cblas.h file resided in the same directory as all of the CBLAS
source, and perhaps compilers implicitly add a -I flag for the
directory that corresponds to the location of the source file being
compiled. This bug only showed up because some CBLAS-like source code
was moved into an 'extra' subdirectory of that frame/compat/cblas/src
directory. After moving the code, compilation for those files failed
(because the cblas.h header file, presumably, could not be found in
the same location). This bug was fixed within common.mk by explicitly
adding the cblas.h directory to the list of -I flags passed to the
compiler.
- Added test_axpbyv.c and test_gemm_batch.c files to 'test' directory,
and updated test/Makefile to build those drivers.
- Fixed typo in error message string in cblas_sgemm.c.
