av

Header-only auto-vectorization (av) library for primitive arithmetic operations over arrays.

The goal of the project is to provide the best arithmetic kernels for the given architecture.

Library is auto-generated with the help of cmake building system. It can be included to the destination project simply by adding include_sudirectory(./thirdparty/av).

Requirements

• Doesn't contain cpp files
• Performs auto adjustment during cmake build
• Provides a way to perform specialization against user-defined function

Description

• kernel - an elementary arithmetic operation, has core template structure and get_label() function
• test_function - user defined structure with fixed interface containing function compute and structure input_data. compute can be built using one or more kernels.
• benchmark - automatically generated set of kernel_tests, one for each specific kernel.
• kernel_tests - a set of test_functions built using a specialized version of kernels, one for each specific kernel_parameter.
• kernel_parameter - a value which specializes kernel by characteristics depending on the hardware properties.
