Details:
- Altered control tree node struct definitions so that all nodes have the
same struct definition, whose primary fields consist of a blocksize id,
a variant function pointer, a pointer to an optional parameter struct,
and a pointer to a (single) sub-node. This unified control tree type is
now named cntl_t.
- Changed the way control tree nodes are connected, and what computation
they represent, such that, for example, packing operations are now
associated with nodes that are "inline" in the tree, rather than off-
shoot braches. The original tree for the classic Goto gemm algorithm was
expressed (roughly) as:
blk_var2 -> blk_var3 -> blk_var1 -> ker_var2
| |
-> packb -> packa
and now, the same tree would look like:
blk_var2 -> blk_var3 -> packb -> blk_var1 -> packa -> ker_var2
Specifically, the packb and packa nodes perform their respective packing
operations and then recurse (without any loop) to a subproblem. This means
there are now two kinds of level-3 control tree nodes: partitioning and
non-partitioning. The blocked variants are members of the former, because
they iteratively partition off submatrices and perform suboperations on
those partitions, while the packing variants belong to the latter group.
(This change has the effect of allowing greatly simplified initialization
of the nodes, which previously involved setting many unused node fields to
NULL.)
- Changed the way thrinfo_t tree nodes are arranged to mirror the new
connective structure of control trees. That is, packm nodes are no longer
off-shoot branches of the main algorithmic nodes, but rather connected
"inline".
- Simplified control tree creation functions. Partitioning nodes are created
concisely with just a few fields needing initialization. By contrast, the
packing nodes require additional parameters, which are stored in a
packm-specific struct that is tracked via the optional parameters pointer
within the control tree struct. (This parameter struct must always begin
with a uint64_t that contains the byte size of the struct. This allows
us to use a generic function to recursively copy control trees.) gemm,
herk, and trmm control tree creation continues to be consolidated into
a single function, with the operation family being used to select
among the parameter-agnostic macro-kernel wrappers. A single routine,
bli_cntl_free(), is provided to free control trees recursively, whereby
the chief thread within a groups release the blocks associated with
mem_t entries back to the memory broker from which they were acquired.
- Updated internal back-ends, e.g. bli_gemm_int(), to query and call the
function pointer stored in the current control tree node (rather than
index into a local function pointer array). Before being invoked, these
function pointers are first cast to a gemm_voft (for gemm, herk, or trmm
families) or trsm_voft (for trsm family) type, which is defined in
frame/3/bli_l3_var_oft.h.
- Retired herk and trmm internal back-ends, since all execution now flows
through gemm or trsm blocked variants.
- Merged forwards- and backwards-moving variants by querying the direction
from routines as a function of the variant's matrix operands. gemm and
herk always move forward, while trmm and trsm move in a direction that
is dependent on which operand (a or b) is triangular.
- Added functions bli_thread_get_range_mdim(), bli_thread_get_range_ndim(),
each of which takes additional arguments and hides complexity in managing
the difference between the way ranges are computed for the four families
of operations.
- Simplified level-3 blocked variants according to the above changes, so that
the only steps taken are:
1. Query partitioning direction (forwards or backwards).
2. Prune unreferenced regions, if they exist.
3. Determine the thread partitioning sub-ranges.
<begin loop>
4. Determine the partitioning blocksize (passing in the partitioning
direction)
5. Acquire the curren iteration's partitions for the matrices affected
by the current variants's partitioning dimension (m, k, n).
6. Call the subproblem.
<end loop>
- Instantiate control trees once per thread, per operation invocation.
(This is a change from the previous regime in which control trees were
treated as stateless objects, initialized with the library, and shared
as read-only objects between threads.) This once-per-thread allocation
is done primarily to allow threads to use the control tree as as place
to cache certain data for use in subsequent loop iterations. Presently,
the only application of this caching is a mem_t entry for the packing
blocks checked out from the memory broker (allocator). If a non-NULL
control tree is passed in by the (expert) user, then the tree is copied
by each thread. This is done in bli_l3_thread_decorator(), in
bli_thrcomm_*.c.
- Added a new field to the context, and opid_t which tracks the "family"
of the operation being executed. For example, gemm, hemm, and symm are
all part of the gemm family, while herk, syrk, her2k, and syr2k are
all part of the herk family. Knowing the operation's family is necessary
when conditionally executing the internal (beta) scalar reset on on
C in blocked variant 3, which is needed for gemm and herk families,
but must not be performed for the trmm family (because beta has only
been applied to the current row-panel of C after the first rank-kc
iteration).
- Reexpressed 3m3 induced method blocked variant in frame/3/gemm/ind
to comform with the new control tree design, and renamed the macro-
kernel codes corresponding to 3m2 and 4m1b.
- Renamed bli_mem.c (and its APIs) to bli_memsys.c, and renamed/relocated
bli_mem_macro_defs.h from frame/include to frame/base/bli_mem.h.
- Renamed/relocated bli_auxinfo_macro_defs.h from frame/include to
frame/base/bli_auxinfo.h.
- Fixed a minor bug whereby the storage-to-ukr-preference matching
optimization in the various level-3 front-ends was not being applied
properly when the context indicated that execution would be via an
induced method. (Before, we always checked the native micro-kernel
corresponding to the datatype being executed, whereas now we check
the native micro-kernel corresponding to the datatype's real projection,
since that is the micro-kernel that is actually used by induced methods.
- Added an option to the testsuite to skip the testing of native level-3
complex implementations. Previously, it was always tested, provided that
the c/z datatypes were enabled. However, some configurations use
reference micro-kernels for complex datatypes, and testing these
implementations can slow down the testsuite considerably.
