Details: - Defined a new "3ms" (separated 3m) pack schema and added appropriate support in packm_init(), packm_blk_var2(). - Generalized packm_struc_cxk_3mi to take the imaginary stride (is_p) as an argument instead of computing it locally. Exception: for trmm, is_p must be computed locally, since it changes for triangular packed matrices. Also exposed is_p in interface to dt-specific packm_blk_var2 (and _var1, even though it does not use imaginary stride). - Renamed many functions/variables from _3mi to _3mis to indicate that they work for either interleaved or separated 3m pack schemas. - Generalized gemm and herk macro-kernels to pass in imaginary stride rather than compute them locally. - Added support for 3m2 and 3m3 algorithms to frame/ind, including 3m2- and 3m3-specific virtual micro-kernels. - Added special gemm macro-kernels to support 3m2 and 3m3. - Added support for 3m2 and 3m3 to testsuite. - Corrected the type of the panel dimension (pd_) in various macro- kernels from inc_t to dim_t. - Renamed many functions defined in bli_blocksize.c. - Moved most induced-related macro defs from frame/include to frame/ind/include. - Updated the _ukernel.c files so that the micro-kernel function pointers are obtained from the func_t objects rather than the cpp macros that define the function names. - Updated test/3m4m driver, Makefile, and run script.
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!
