oneAPI Deep Neural Network Library (oneDNN)

OpenSSF Best Practices OpenSSF Scorecard

oneAPI Deep Neural Network Library (oneDNN) is an open-source cross-platform performance library of basic building blocks for deep learning applications. oneDNN project is part of the UXL Foundation and is an implementation of the oneAPI specification for oneDNN component.

The library is optimized for Intel(R) Architecture Processors, Intel Graphics, and Arm(R) 64-bit Architecture (AArch64)-based processors. oneDNN has experimental support for the following architectures: NVIDIA* GPU, AMD* GPU, OpenPOWER* Power ISA (PPC64), IBMz* (s390x), and RISC-V.

oneDNN is intended for deep learning applications and framework developers interested in improving application performance on CPUs and GPUs. Deep learning practitioners should use one of the applications enabled with oneDNN.

Table of Contents

Documentation

  • Developer Guide explains the programming model, supported functionality, and implementation details, and includes annotated examples.
  • API Reference provides a comprehensive reference of the library API.

Installation

Binary distribution of this software is available in:

The packages do not include library dependencies and these need to be resolved in the application at build time. See the System Requirements section below and the Build Options section in the Developer Guide for more details on CPU and GPU runtimes.

If the configuration you need is not available, you can build the library from source.

System Requirements

oneDNN supports platforms based on the following architectures:

WARNING

Power ISA (PPC64), IBMz (s390x), and RISC-V (RV64) support is experimental with limited testing validation.

The library is optimized for the following CPUs:

  • Intel 64/AMD64 architecture
    • Intel Atom(R) processor (at least Intel SSE4.1 support is required)
    • Intel Core(TM) processor (at least Intel SSE4.1 support is required)
    • Intel Xeon(R) processor E3, E5, and E7 family (formerly Sandy Bridge, Ivy Bridge, Haswell, and Broadwell)
    • Intel Xeon Scalable processor (formerly Skylake, Cascade Lake, Cooper Lake, Ice Lake, Sapphire Rapids, and Emerald Rapids)
    • Intel Xeon CPU Max Series (formerly Sapphire Rapids HBM)
    • Intel Core Ultra processors (formerly Meteor Lake, Arrow Lake, and Lunar Lake)
    • Intel Xeon 6 processors (formerly Sierra Forest and Granite Rapids)
  • AArch64 architecture
    • Arm Neoverse(TM) N1 and V1 processors

On a CPU based on Intel 64 or on AMD64 architecture, oneDNN detects the instruction set architecture (ISA) at runtime and uses just-in-time (JIT) code generation to deploy the code optimized for the latest supported ISA. Future ISAs may have initial support in the library disabled by default and require the use of run-time controls to enable them. See CPU dispatcher control for more details.

WARNING

On macOS, applications that use oneDNN may need to request special entitlements if they use the hardened runtime. See the Linking Guide for more details.

The library is optimized for the following GPUs:

  • Intel Graphics for 11th-14th Generation Intel Core Processors
  • Intel Iris Xe MAX Graphics (formerly DG1)
  • Intel Arc(TM) graphics (formerly Alchemist)
  • Intel Data Center GPU Flex Series (formerly Arctic Sound)
  • Intel Data Center GPU Max Series (formerly Ponte Vecchio)
  • Intel Graphics and Intel Arc graphics for Intel Core Ultra processors (formerly Meteor Lake, Arrow Lake and Lunar Lake)
  • future Intel Arc graphics (code name Battlemage)

Requirements for Building from Source

oneDNN supports systems meeting the following requirements:

  • Operating system with Intel 64 / Arm 64 / Power / IBMz architecture support
  • C++ compiler with C++11 standard support
  • CMake 2.8.12 or later

The following tools are required to build oneDNN documentation:

Configurations of CPU and GPU engines may introduce additional build time dependencies.

CPU Engine

oneDNN CPU engine is used to execute primitives on Intel Architecture Processors, 64-bit Arm Architecture (AArch64) processors, 64-bit Power ISA (PPC64) processors, IBMz (s390x), and compatible devices.

The CPU engine is built by default but can be disabled at build time by setting DNNL_CPU_RUNTIME to NONE. In this case, GPU engine must be enabled. The CPU engine can be configured to use the OpenMP, TBB or SYCL runtime. The following additional requirements apply:

Some implementations rely on OpenMP 4.0 SIMD extensions. For the best performance results on Intel Architecture Processors we recommend using the Intel C++ Compiler.

On a CPU based on Arm AArch64 architecture, oneDNN CPU engine can be built with Arm Compute Library (ACL) integration. ACL is an open-source library for machine learning applications and provides AArch64 optimized implementations of core functions. This functionality currently requires that ACL is downloaded and built separately. See Build from Source section of the Developer Guide for details. oneDNN only supports Compute Library versions 24.08.1 or later.

GPU Engine

Intel Processor Graphics and Xe Architecture graphics are supported by the oneDNN GPU engine. The GPU engine is disabled in the default build configuration. The following additional requirements apply when GPU engine is enabled:

WARNING

Linux will reset GPU when kernel runtime exceeds several seconds. The user can prevent this behavior by disabling hangcheck for Intel GPU driver. Windows has built-in timeout detection and recovery mechanism that results in similar behavior. The user can prevent this behavior by increasing the TdrDelay value.

WARNING

NVIDIA GPU support is experimental. General information, build instructions, and implementation limitations are available in the NVIDIA backend readme.

WARNING

AMD GPU support is experimental. General information, build instructions, and implementation limitations are available in the AMD backend readme.
