OpenBLAS ChangeLog
====================================================================
Version 0.3.3
31-Aug-2018
common:
* thread memory allocation has been switched back to the method
used before version 0.3.1 due to unexpected problems caused by
the new code under some circumstances. A new compile-time option
USE_TLS has been added to enable the new code, and it is hoped
that this can become the default again in the next version.
* LAPAck PR272 has been integrated, which fixes spurious errors
in DSYEVR and related functions caused by missing conversion
from ILAENV to ILAENV_2STAGE in several _2stage routines.
* the cmake-generated OpenBLASConfig.cmake now uses correct case
for the name of the library
* added support for Haiku OS
x86_64:
* added AVX512 implementations of SDOT, DDOT, SAXPY, DAXPY,
DSCAL, DGEMVN and DSYMVL
* added a workaround for a cygwin issue that prevented compilation
of AVX512 code
IBM Z:
* added autodetection of Z14
* fixed TRMM errors in the generic target
====================================================================
Version 0.3.2
30-Jul-2018
common:
* fixes for regressions caused by the rewrite of the thread
initialization code in 0.3.1
POWER:
* fixed cpu autodetection for the BSDs
MIPS64:
* fixed utest errors in AXPY, DSDOT, ROT and SWAP
x86_64:
* added autodetection of AMD Ryzen 2
* fixed build with older versions of MSVC
====================================================================
Version 0.3.1
01-Jul-2018
common:
* rewritten thread initialization code with significantly reduced overhead
* added CBLAS interfaces to the IxAMIN BLAS extension functions
* fixed the lapack-test target
* CMAKE builds now create an OpenBLASConfig.cmake file
* ZAXPY now uses a single thread for small input sizes
* the LAPACK code was updated from Reference-LAPACK/lapack#253
(fixing LAPACKE interfaces to Aasen's functions)
POWER:
* corrected CROT and ZROT behaviour with zero INC_X
ARMV7:
* corrected xDOT behaviour with zero INC_X or INC_Y
x86_64:
* retired some older targets of DYNAMIC_ARCH builds to a new option DYNAMIC_OLDER,
this affects PENRYN,DUNNINGTON,OPTERON,OPTERON_SSE3,BOBCAT,ATOM and NANO
(which will still be supported via the slower PRESCOTT kernels when this option is not set)
* added an option DYNAMIC_LIST that (used in conjunction with DYNAMIC_ARCH) allows to
specify the list of x86_64 targets to include. Any target not on the list will be supported
by the Sandybridge or Nehalem kernels if available, or by Prescott.
* improved SWITCH_RATIO on Haswell for increased GEMM throughput
* added initial support for Intel Skylake X, including an AVX512 SGEMM kernel
* added autodetection of Intel Cannon Lake series as Skylake X
* added a default L2 cache size for hypervisors that return zero here (Chromebook)
* fixed a name clash with recent Windows10 headers that broke the build with (at least)
recent mingw from MSYS2
* fixed a link error in mixed clang/gfortran builds with OpenMP
* updated the OSX deployment target to 10.8
* switched on parallel make for builds on MS Windows by default
x86:
* fixed SSWAP and DSWAP behaviour with zero INC_X and INC_Y
====================================================================
Version 0.3.0
23-May-2108
common:
* fixed some more thread race and locking bugs
* added preliminary support for calling an OpenMP build of the library from multiple threads
* removed performance impact of thread locks added in 0.2.20 on OpenMP code
* general code cleanup

* improved thread distribution for GEMM
* corrected IMATCOPY/OMATCOPY implementation
* fixed out-of-bounds accesses in the multithreaded xBMV/xPMV and SYMV implementations
* cmake build improvements
* pkgconfig file now contains build options
* openblas_get_config() now reports USE_OPENMP and NUM_THREADS settings used for the build
* corrections and improvements for systems with more than 64 cpus
* LAPACK code updated to 3.8.0 including later fixes
* added ReLAPACK, a recursive implementation of several LAPACK functions
* Rewrote ROTMG to handle cases that the netlib code failed to address
* Disabled (broken) multithreading code for xTRMV
* corrected prototypes of complex CBLAS functions to make our cblas.h match the generally accepted standard
