* 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 required switching to the generic gemm_beta code (which is faster anyway on SKX)
for both DGEMM and SGEMM
Performance for the not-retuned version is in the 30% range
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.
