Use microarchitecture name instead of meaningless strings to name the core,
the legacy core is still retained.
1. Rename LOONGSONGENERIC to LA64_GENERIC
2. Rename LOONGSON3R5 to LA464
3. Rename LOONGSON2K1000 to LA264
Implement DYNAMIC_ARCH support for riscv64. Three cpu types are
supported, riscv64_generic, riscv64_zvl256b, riscv64_zvl128b.
The two non-generic kernels require CPU support for RVV 1.0 to
function correctly. Detecting that a riscv64 device supports
RVV 1.0 is a little complicated as there are some boards on the
market that advertise support for V via hwcap but only support
RVV 0.7.1, which is not binary compatible with RVV 1.0. The
approach taken is to first try hwprobe. If hwprobe is not
available, we fall back to hwcap + an additional check to distinguish
between RVV 1.0 and RVV 0.7.1.
Tested on a VM with VLEN=256, a CanMV K230 with VLEN=128 (with only
the big core enabled), a Lichee Pi with RVV 0.7.1 and a VF2 with no
vector.
A compiler with RVV 1.0 support must be used to build OpenBLAS for
riscv64 when DYNAMIC_ARCH=1.

The CPUID(leaf:2 or leaf:0x80000006) is not supported on some confidential
VMs. As a result the get_l2_size() returns the default 512M which brings
performance issues.
Introduce the environment variable OPENBLAS_L2_SIZE provided by the user
to get the l2 cache size.

Previously dynamic builds were either using the default SWITCH_RATIO
or one from the higher level architecture; this patch ensures the
dynamic builds can use this parameter as well.

1. Added bfloat16 based dot as new API: shdot
2. Implemented generic kernel and cooperlake-specific (AVX512-BF16) kernel for shdot
3. Added 4 conversion APIs for bfloat16 data type <=> single/double: shstobf16 shdtobf16 sbf16tos dbf16tod
shstobf16 -- convert single float array to bfloat16 array
shdtobf16 -- convert double float array to bfloat16 array
sbf16tos -- convert bfloat16 array to single float array
dbf16tod -- convert bfloat16 array to double float array
4. Implemented generic kernels for all 4 conversion APIs, and cooperlake-specific kernel for shstobf16 and shdtobf16
5. Update level1 thread facilitate functions and macros to support multi-threading for these new APIs
6. Fix Cooperlake platform detection/specify issue when under dynamic-arch building
7. Change the typedef of bfloat16 from unsigned short to more strict uint16_t

Move "direct SGEMM" functionality out of the SkylakeX SGEMM kernel and make it available
(on x86_64 targets only for now) in DYNAMIC_ARCH builds
* Add sgemm_direct targets in the kernel Makefile.L3 and CMakeLists.txt
* Add direct_sgemm functions to the gotoblas struct in common_param.h
* Move sgemm_direct_performant helper to separate file
* Update gemm.c to macros for sgemm_direct to support dynamic_arch naming via common_s,h
* (Conditionally) add sgemm_direct functions in setparam-ref.c
Enable new build target platform -- COOPERLAKE. This target platform
supports all the SKYLAKEX supported ISAs + avx512bf16. So all the
SKYLAKEX specific kernels/drivers and related code are now extended
to be also active on COOPERLAKE. Besides, new BF16 related kernels
are active under this target.
* make building the bfloat16 BLAS functions conditional on BUILD_HALF
* pass the BUILD_HALF option to gensymbol
* Pass BUILD_HALF as a compiler define for dynamic_arch builds
This patch adds support for bfloat16 data type matrix multiplication kernel.
For architectures that don't support bfloat16, it is defined as unsigned short
(2 bytes). Default unroll sizes can be changed as per architecture as done for
SGEMM and for now 8 and 4 are used for M and N. Size of ncopy/tcopy can be
changed as per architecture requirement and for now, size 2 is used.
Added shgemm in kernel/power/KERNEL.POWER9 and tested in powerpc64le and
powerpc64. For reference, added a small test compare_sgemm_shgemm.c to compare
sgemm and shgemm output.
This patch does not cover OpenBLAS test, benchmark and lapack tests for shgemm.
Complex type implementation can be discussed and added once this is approved.
Enable DYNAMIC_ARCH feature on ARM64. This patch uses the cpuid
feature in linux kernel to detect the core type at runtime
(https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/arm64/cpu-feature-registers.txt).
If this feature is missing in kernel, then the user should use the
OPENBLAS_CORETYPE env variable to select the desired core type.
* Return a somewhat sane default value for L2 cache size if cpuid returned something unexpected
Fixes#1610, the KVM hypervisor on Google Chromebooks returning zero for CPUID 0x80000006, causing DYNAMIC_ARCH
builds of OpenBLAS to hang
This patch adds the basic infrastructure for adding the SkylakeX (Intel Skylake server)
target. The SkylakeX target will use the AVX512 (AVX512VL level) instruction set,
which brings 2 basic things:
1) 512 bit wide SIMD (2x width of AVX2)
2) 32 SIMD registers (2x the number on AVX2)
This initial patch only contains a trivial transofrmation of the Haswell SGEMM kernel
to AVX512VL; more will follow later but this patch aims to get the infrastructure
in place for this "later".
Full performance tuning has not been done yet; with more registers and wider SIMD
it's in theory possible to retune the kernels but even without that there's an
interesting enough performance increase (30-40% range) with just this change.
l2 cache size is not universally needed to assign default unrolling limits, but neither putting its declaration inside an ifdef nor cloning it into all ifdef sections that need it really makes sense here.
