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.
This fixes an issue originally introduced with the BGEMM kernel.
I've updated the tests to run with `beta=1.0` so as to test loading and
updating from C.
Alongside this, the tests now return sensible return values to reduce
the risk of them being ignored.
Also fixed a bug in `generic/gemv_t.c` resulting in weird outputs for
`bgemv`.
- 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
* fix multiple numerical stability and corner case issues
* add a script to generate arbitrary gemm kernel shapes
* add a generic zvl256b target to demonstrate large gemm kernel unrolls
This patch introduces new optimized version of SHGEMM kernel
using power10 Matrix-Multiply Assist (MMA) feature introduced in
POWER ISA v3.1. This patch makes use of new POWER10 compute instructions
for matrix multiplication operation.
Tested on simulator and there are no new test failures.
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.
