OpenBLAS ChangeLog OpenBLAS ChangeLog
====================================================================
Version 0.3.2
30-Jul-2018
common:
* fixes for regressions caused by the rewrite of the thread
initialization code in 0.3.1
POWER:
* fixed cpu autodetection for the BSDs
MIPS64:
* fixed utest errors in AXPY, DSDOT, ROT and SWAP
x86_64:
* added autodetection of AMD Ryzen 2
* fixed build with older versions of MSVC
====================================================================
Version 0.3.1
01-Jul-2018
common:
* rewritten thread initialization code with significantly reduced overhead
* added CBLAS interfaces to the IxAMIN BLAS extension functions
* fixed the lapack-test target
* CMAKE builds now create an OpenBLASConfig.cmake file
* ZAXPY now uses a single thread for small input sizes
* the LAPACK code was updated from Reference-LAPACK/lapack#253
(fixing LAPACKE interfaces to Aasen's functions)
POWER:
* corrected CROT and ZROT behaviour with zero INC_X
ARMV7:
* corrected xDOT behaviour with zero INC_X or INC_Y
x86_64:
* retired some older targets of DYNAMIC_ARCH builds to a new option DYNAMIC_OLDER,
this affects PENRYN,DUNNINGTON,OPTERON,OPTERON_SSE3,BOBCAT,ATOM and NANO
(which will still be supported via the slower PRESCOTT kernels when this option is not set)
* added an option DYNAMIC_LIST that (used in conjunction with DYNAMIC_ARCH) allows to
specify the list of x86_64 targets to include. Any target not on the list will be supported
by the Sandybridge or Nehalem kernels if available, or by Prescott.
* improved SWITCH_RATIO on Haswell for increased GEMM throughput
* added initial support for Intel Skylake X, including an AVX512 SGEMM kernel
* added autodetection of Intel Cannon Lake series as Skylake X
* added a default L2 cache size for hypervisors that return zero here (Chromebook)
* fixed a name clash with recent Windows10 headers that broke the build with (at least)
recent mingw from MSYS2
* fixed a link error in mixed clang/gfortran builds with OpenMP
* updated the OSX deployment target to 10.8
* switched on parallel make for builds on MS Windows by default
x86:
* fixed SSWAP and DSWAP behaviour with zero INC_X and INC_Y
====================================================================
Version 0.3.0
23-May-2108
common:
* fixed some more thread race and locking bugs
* added preliminary support for calling an OpenMP build of the library from multiple threads
* removed performance impact of thread locks added in 0.2.20 on OpenMP code
* general code cleanup
* optimized DSDOT implementation
* improved thread distribution for GEMM
* corrected IMATCOPY/OMATCOPY implementation
* fixed out-of-bounds accesses in the multithreaded xBMV/xPMV and SYMV implementations
* cmake build improvements
* pkgconfig file now contains build options
* openblas_get_config() now reports USE_OPENMP and NUM_THREADS settings used for the build
* corrections and improvements for systems with more than 64 cpus
* LAPACK code updated to 3.8.0 including later fixes
* added ReLAPACK, a recursive implementation of several LAPACK functions
* Rewrote ROTMG to handle cases that the netlib code failed to address
* Disabled (broken) multithreading code for xTRMV
* corrected prototypes of complex CBLAS functions to make our cblas.h match the generally accepted standard
* shared memory access failures on startup are now handled more gracefully
* restored utests from earlier releases (and made them pass on all affected systems)
SPARC:
* several fixes for cpu autodetection
POWER:
* corrected vector register overwriting in several Power8 kernels
* optimized additional BLAS functions
ARM:
* added support for CortexA53 and A72
* added autodetection for ThunderX2T99
* made most optimized kernels the default for generic ARMv8 targets
x86_64:
* parallelized DDOT kernel for Haswell
* changed alignment directives in assembly kernels to boost performance on OSX
* fixed register handling in the GEMV microkernels (bug exposed by gcc7)
* added support for building on OpenBSD and Dragonfly
* updated compiler options to work with Intel release 2018
* support fully optimized build with clang/flang on Microsoft Windows
* fixed building on AIX
IBM Z:
* added optimized BLAS 1/2 functions
MIPS:
* fixed cpu autodetection helper code
* added mips32 1004K cpu (Mediatek MT7621 and similar SoC)
* added mips64 I6500 cpu
