Details: - Removed the m and n (and elem_size) fields from the mem_t object, and added m_packed and n_packed fields to obj_t. These new fields track the same as the old ones. From an abstraction standpoint, it seemed awkward to store those dimensions inside the mem_t. - Updated interfaces to bl2_mem_acquire_*() so that only a byte size argument is passed in, instead of m, n, and elem_size. - Updated bl2_packm_init_pack() and bl2_packv_init_pack() to inline the functionality of bl2_mem_alloc_update_m() and bl2_mem_alloc_update_v(), respectively. - Updated packm variants to access the packed length and width fields from their new locations.
BLIS framework
README
---
Thank you for deciding to try out the BLIS framework!
BLIS is a portable framework for instantiating BLAS-like libraries. The
framework was designed to isolate essential kernels of computation that,
when optimized, immediately enable optimized implementations of most of
its commonly used and computationally intensive operations.
BLIS has many features. For more detailed information about the project,
please check the BLIS homepage:
http://code.google.com/p/blis/
You can keep in touch with developers and other users of the project by
joining one or more of the following mailing lists:
o blis-announce - http://groups.google.com/group/blis-announce
Used only for announcements and other important messages regarding
BLIS.
o blis-discuss - http://groups.google.com/group/blis-discuss
Please join and post to this mailing list if you have general questions
or feedback regarding BLIS. Application developers (end users) should
probably post here.
o blis-devel - http://groups.google.com/group/blis-devel
Please join and post to this mailing list if you are a BLIS developer
(i.e., you are trying to use BLIS to create libraries, you want to
write kernels for the framework, or you are trying to modify or extend
the framework itself).
Also, please read the LICENSE file for information on copying and
distributing this software.
For a step-by-step guide on configuring, compiling, and installing BLIS,
please read the INSTALL file. Also, please check the BLIS website's wiki
page for other useful how-to guides.
Thanks again for your interest in BLIS!
