This adds all the relevant bits and pieces to add a `shgemv` path as
well as a future `hgemm`/`hgemv` path in a similar model to `sb` and `b`
interfaces.
I've also fixed a few bits and pieces around `shgemm` which didn't build
in a few situations.
- Sets up all the various entrypoints for `bgemv`
- Adds `bscal` for use in the `bgemv` interface
- Adds test cases for comparing `sgemv` and `bgemv`
- Adds generic kernels for `bgemv_n` and `bgemv_t` which are accurate
enough to pass above 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.
