OpenBLAS for the most part contains implementations of the reference (Netlib)
|
|
BLAS, CBLAS, LAPACK and LAPACKE interfaces. A few OpenBLAS-specific functions
|
|
are also provided however, which mostly can be seen as "BLAS extensions".
|
|
This page documents those non-standard APIs.

## BLAS-like extensions
|
|
|
|
| Routine | Data Types | Description |
|
|
| ------------- |:------------- | :---------------|
|
|
| ?axpby | s,d,c,z | like axpy with a multiplier for y |
|
|
| ?gemm3m | c,z | gemm3m |
|
|
| ?imatcopy | s,d,c,z | in-place transpositon/copying |
|
|
| ?omatcopy | s,d,c,z | out-of-place transpositon/copying |
|
|
| ?geadd | s,d,c,z | matrix add |
|
|
| ?gemmt | s,d,c,z | gemm but only a triangular part updated|

## bfloat16 functionality
|
|
|
|
BLAS-like and conversion functions for `bfloat16` (available when OpenBLAS was compiled with `BUILD_BFLOAT16=1`):
|
|
|
|
* `void cblas_sbstobf16` converts a float array to an array of bfloat16 values by rounding
|
|
* `void cblas_sbdtobf16` converts a double array to an array of bfloat16 values by rounding
|
|
* `void cblas_sbf16tos` converts a bfloat16 array to an array of floats
|
|
* `void cblas_dbf16tod` converts a bfloat16 array to an array of doubles
|
|
* `float cblas_sbdot` computes the dot product of two bfloat16 arrays
|
|
* `void cblas_sbgemv` performs the matrix-vector operations of GEMV with the input matrix and X vector as bfloat16
|
|
* `void cblas_sbgemm` performs the matrix-matrix operations of GEMM with both input arrays containing bfloat16
|
|
|
|
## Utility functions
|
|
|
|
* `openblas_get_num_threads`
|
|
* `openblas_set_num_threads`
|
|
* `int openblas_get_num_procs(void)` returns the number of processors available on the system (may include "hyperthreading cores")
|
|
* `int openblas_get_parallel(void)` returns 0 for sequential use, 1 for platform-based threading and 2 for OpenMP-based threading
|
|
* `char * openblas_get_config()` returns the options OpenBLAS was built with, something like `NO_LAPACKE DYNAMIC_ARCH NO_AFFINITY Haswell`
|
|
* `int openblas_set_affinity(int thread_index, size_t cpusetsize, cpu_set_t *cpuset)` sets the CPU affinity mask of the given thread
|
|
to the provided cpuset. Only available on Linux, with semantics identical to `pthread_setaffinity_np`.
