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.

4. Added python scripts to support library build and testsuite build.
AMD Internal : [CPUPL-1422]
Change-Id: Ie34c3e60e9f8fbf7ea69b47fd1b50ee90099c898
Details:
- Expanded support for disabling trsm diagonal pre-inversion to other
microkernel types, including the reference microkernel as well as the
kernel implementations for 1m and the pre-broadcast B (bb) format used
by the power9 subconfig. This builds on the 'haswell' and 'penryn'
kernel support added in 7038bba. Thanks to Bhaskar Nallani for
reminding me, in #461 (post-closure), that 1m support was missing from
that commit.
- Removed cpp branch of ref_kernels/3/bli_trsm_ref.c that contained the
omp simd implementation after making a stripped-down copy in 'old'.
This code has been disabled for some time and it seemed better suited
to rot away out of sight rather than clutter up a file that is already
cluttered by the presence of lower and upper versions.
- Minor comment update to bli_ind_init().
This library ported on Windows 10 using CMake scripts and Visual Studio 2019 with clang compiler
AMD internal:[CPUPL-657]
Change-Id: Ie701f52ebc0e0585201ba703b6284ac94fc0feb9
Details:
- Added support for being able to duplicate (broadcast) elements in
memory when packing matrix B (ie: the left-hand operand) in level-3
operations. This turns out advantageous for some architectures that
can afford the cost of the extra bandwidth and somehow benefit from
the pre-broadcast elements (and thus being able to avoid using
broadcast-style load instructions on micro-rows of B in the gemm
microkernel).
- Support optionally disabling right-side hemm and symm. If this occurs,
hemm_r is implemented in terms of hemm_l (and symm_r in terms of
symm_l). This is needed when broadcasting during packing because the
alternative--supporting the broadcast of B while also allowing matrix
B to be Hermitian/symmetric--would be an absolute mess.
- Support alignment factors for packed blocks of A, B, and C separately
(as well as for general-purpose buffers). In addition, we support
byte offsets from those alignment values (which is different from
aligning by align+offset bytes to begin with). The default alignment
values are BLIS_PAGE_SIZE in all four cases, with the offset values
defaulting to zero.
- Pass pack_t schema into bli_?packm_cxk() so that it can be then passed
into the packm kernel, where it will be needed by packm kernels that
perform broadcasts of B, since the idea is that we *only* want to
broadcast when packing micropanels of B and not A.
- Added definition for variadic bli_cntx_set_l3_vir_ukrs(), which can be
used to set custom virtual level-3 microkernels in the cntx_t, which
would typically be done in the bli_cntx_init_*() function defined in
the subconfiguration of interest.
- Added a "broadcast B" kernel function for use with NP/NR = 12/6,
defined in in ref_kernels/1m/bli_packm_cxk_bb_ref.c.
- Added a gemm, gemmtrsm, and trsm "broadcast B" reference kernels
defined in ref_kernels/3/bb. (These kernels have been tested with
double real with NP/NR = 12/6.)
- Added #ifndef ... #endif guards around several macro constants defined
in frame/include/bli_kernel_macro_defs.h.
- Defined a few "broadcast B" static functions in
frame/include/level0/bb for use by "broadcast B"-style packm reference
kernels. For now, only the real domain kernels are tested and fully
defined.
- Output the alignment and offset values for packed blocks of A and B
in the testsuite's "BLIS configuration info" section.
- Comment updates to various files.
- Bumped so_version to 3.0.0.
