intrinsic optimized packm kernels written for zen are no longer used.
Therefore removing it. Currently packm kernels from haswell configuration
are being used for zen2 and zen3 configs.
1. Induced Method turned off, till the path fully tested for different alpha,beta conditions.
2. Fix for Beta =0, and C = NAN done.
Change-Id: I5a7bd1393ac245c2ebb72f9a634728af4c0d4000
Description:
1. When beta is zero we should not be doing any arthemetic operation
on C data and should not assume anything on values of C matrix
2. It is taken care in all sgemmsup kernels already except
in bli_sgemmsup_rv_zen_asm_2x8 and bli_sgemmsup_rv_zen_asm_3x8
kernels, when beta zero and C is column storage case. Fixed
this issue by removing reading C matrix in these kernels.
3. When C has NaN or Inf and when we multiply NaN or Inf with zero
(beta) the result becomes NaN only.

Details:
1. Unrolled by a factor 5. This gave around 1GFLOPS gain
2. Changed CMP to subs and remove nan. CMP uses a lot of
compare, which is higher in latency and more number of
instructions. Replacing with subs and remove nan
reduced it to 3 instructions and lighter ones.
3. Added remove nan function.
4. Added AVX512 definition in skx context.
5. Disabled code in AMAXV kernel depending on AVX512 flag
exists or not

Details:
- Adding threshold function pointers to cntx gives flexibility to choose
different threshold functions for different configurations.
- In case of fat binary where configuration is decided at run-time,
adding threshold functions under a macro enables these functions for
all the configs under a family. This can be avoided by adding function
pointers to cntx which can be queried from cntx during run-time
based on the config chosen.

Description:

there were few loads and stores which were accessing

Merge conflicts araised has been fixed while downstreaming BLIS code from master to milan-3.1 branch
Implemented an automatic reduction in the number of threads when the user requests parallelism via a single number (ie: the automatic way) and (a) that number of threads is prime, and (b) that number exceeds a minimum threshold defined by the macro BLIS_NT_MAX_PRIME, which defaults to 11. If prime numbers are really desired, this feature may be suppressed by defining the macro BLIS_ENABLE_AUTO_PRIME_NUM_THREADS in the appropriate configuration family's bli_family_*.h. (Jeff Diamond)
Changed default value of BLIS_THREAD_RATIO_M from 2 to 1, which leads to slightly different automatic thread factorizations.
Enable the 1m method only if the real domain microkernel is not a reference kernel. BLIS now forgoes use of 1m if both the real and complex domain kernels are reference implementations.
Relocated the general stride handling for gemmsup. This fixed an issue whereby gemm would fail to trigger to conventional code path for cases that use general stride even after gemmsup rejected the problem. (RuQing Xu)
Fixed an incorrect function signature (and prototype) of bli_?gemmt(). (RuQing Xu)
Redefined BLIS_NUM_ARCHS to be part of the arch_t enum, which means it will be updated automatically when defining future subconfigs.
Minor code consolidation in all level-3 _front() functions.
Reorganized Windows cpp branch of bli_pthreads.c.
Implemented bli_pthread_self() and _equals(), but left them commented out (via cpp guards) due to issues with getting the Windows versions working. Thankfully, these functions aren't yet needed by BLIS.
Allow disabling of trsm diagonal pre-inversion at compile time via --disable-trsm-preinversion.
Fixed obscure testsuite bug for the gemmt test module that relates to its dependency on gemv.

Details:
- This commit adds a new BLIS sandbox that (1) provides implementations
based on low-precision gemm kernels, and (2) extends the BLIS typed
API for those new implementations. Currently, these new kernels can
only be used for the POWER10 microarchitecture; however, they may
provide a template for developing similar kernels for other
microarchitectures (even those beyond POWER), as changes would likely
be limited to select places in the microkernel and possibly the
packing routines. The new low-precision operations that are now
supported include: shgemm, sbgemm, i16gemm, i8gemm, i4gemm. For more
information, refer to the POWER10.md document that is included in
'sandbox/power10'.
Details:
- Implemented assembly-based packm kernels for single- and double-
precision complex domain (c and z) and housed them in the 'haswell'
kernel set. This means c3xk, c8xk, z3xk, and z4xk are now all
optimized.
- Registered the aforementioned packm kernels in the haswell, zen,
and zen2 subconfigs.
- Minor modifications to the corresponding s and d packm kernels that
were introduced in 426ad67.
- Thanks to AMD, who originally contributed the double-precision real
packm kernels (d6xk and d8xk), upon which these complex kernels are
partially based.
Details:
- Implemented assembly-based packm kernels for single- and double-
precision real domain (s and d) and housed them in the 'haswell'
kernel set. This means s6xk, s16xk, d6xk, and d8xk are now all
optimized.
- Registered the aforementioned packm kernels in the haswell, zen,
and zen2 subconfigs.
- Thanks to AMD, who originally contributed the double-precision real
packm kernels (d6xk and d8xk), which I have now tweaked and used to
create comparable single-precision real kernels (s6xk and s16xk).
Details:
- This implementation does a transpose operation while packing 16xk of A
buffer and passes it to 16x3-nn kernel.
- The same implementation works for the case where B has transpose.
