Details: - Added a new set of reference gemm, gemmtrsm, and trsm micro-kernels that contain explicit loops over MR and NR, thus allowing them to be used unmodified by developers who want to build a reference library with custom register blocksizes. - Changed config/reference/bli_kernel.h to use above ukernels by default. - Changed interfaces of new and existing gemm, gemmtrsm, and trsm micro-kernels to use 'restrict' keyword. - Added -funroll-loops option to config/reference/make_defs.mk. - Updated comments in bli_kernel.h describing constraints on register and cache blocksizes. - Updated _adds_mxn.h, _copys_mxn.h, and _xpbys_mxn.h macros files so that single-char macros are also defined.
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!
