replaces calculation of machine precision with call to epsilon intrinsic and removes the requirement for previous output files to be removed before rerunning tests
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.
If OpenBLAS is built using add_subdirectory(OpenBlas) as part of another project
then the paths set by CMAKE_XXX_DIR are relative to the parent project
and not the OpenBLAS project.
When OpenBLAS is compiled with USE_OPENMP=1, it ignores OPENBLAS_NUM_THREADS and GOTO_NUM_THREADS flags.Therefore, you should use OMP_NUM_THREADS.
Without setting OMP_NUM_THREADS, a process will use maximal number of threads on a computing node. Thus, if there are 2 processes on the computing node, the thread will contend against other threads on CPU cores. As a result, the application will hang.
