* 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
Setting DYNAMIC_ARCH=1 on POWER9 does not build POWER9 files due to some
compiler version checks. This patch fixes some of the macros that are used
to check compiler version. On fixing those checks, there are some new make
failures related to icamin, icamax, isamin, isamax and caxpy files on POWER9.
This patch fixes those failures as well.
* Update DYNAMIC_ARCH list of ARM64 targets for gmake
* Update arm64 cpu list for runtime detection
* Update DYNAMIC_ARCH list of ARM64 targets for cmake and add POWERPC targets
Auto-add "-fno-second-underscore" option to make LAPACKE compile (as it calls LAPACK functions that may have gotten a second underscore added otherwise). Also support -R for rpath when parsing compiler directives in f_check
* Add gcc7-generated assembly files for POWER8/9 isa/ica-min/max and POWER9 caxpy
To work around internal compiler errors encountered when compiling the original C source with gcc 4 and 5, and wrong code generated by gcc 8.3.0
* Use gcc-generated assembly instead of original C sources
to work around internal compiler errors encountered with gcc 4.8/5.4 and wrong code generation by gcc 8.3
* Use gcc-generated assembly instead of the original C source
to work around internal compiler errors encountered with gcc 4.8 and 5.4, and wrong code generation by gcc 8.3
* Add gcc7-generated assembler version of caxpy for power8
to work around wrong code generated by gcc 8.3
* Handle CONJ define for caxpyc
* Handle CONJ define for caxpyc
* Add gcc7-generated assembly cdot for POWER9
* Use prebuilt assembly for POWER9 cdot
created with gcc 7.3.1 to work around ICE in older gcc versions
* Exclude POWER9 from DYNAMIC_ARCH when gcc versions is lower than 6
* Update Makefile.system
* Use PROLOGUE macro to ensure correct function name for DYNAMIC_ARCH
* Disable POWER9 with old gcc versions
Setting it with a simple "uname -m" just to be able to decide whether to compile getarch.c with -march=native
may actually keep getarch from doing a proper probe. Fixes#2231, a regression caused by #2110
21eda8b5 introduced a check in getarch.c to test if the compiler is capable of
AVX512. This check currently fails, since the used __AVX2__ macro is only
defined if getarch itself was compiled with AVX2/AVX512 support. Make sure this
is the case by building getarch with -march=native on x86_64. It is only
supposed to run on the build host anyway.
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.
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.
The deprecated -openmp option was finally removed in favor of -qopenmp or -fopenmp, picking the latter to stay compatible with Intel compiler versions before 2015 (when -q options were introduced). Fixes#1546
- retry fortran compiler test with aix-specific option if generic -m32/-m64 fails
- pass any custom ARFLAGS to lapack
- no addition of -m32/-m64 to the CFLAGS and FFLAGS on AIX
On ARM the required math library depends on whether the soft floating
point ABI is used or not but this is already handled in
`Makefile.system`, lines 499-505.
Since softfp code has been added to all required vfp kernels,
the code for auto detection of abi is no longer required.
The option to force softfp ABI on make command line by giving
ARM_SOFTFP_ABI=1 is retained. But there is no need to give this option
anymore.
Also the newly added C versions of 4x4/4x2 gemm/trmm kernels are removed.
These are longer required. Moreover these kernels has bugs.
If ARM abi is not explicitly mentioned on the command line, then set the
arm abi to softfp or hard according to the compiler environment.
This assumes that compiler sets the defines __ARM_PCS and __ARM_PCS_VFP
accordingly.
