This patch upstreams support for the Armv8.6-a Matrix Multiplication
Extension. A summary of the features can be found here:
This patch includes:
- Assembly support for AArch32, AArch64, NEON, and SVE
- Intrinsics Support for AArch32, AArch64
- Command line options to enable these features with +f32mm or f64mm
Note: these extensions are optional in the 8.6a architecture and so have
to be enabled by default
No IR types or C Types are needed for this extension.
This is part of a patch series, starting with BFloat16 support and
the other components in the armv8.6a extension (in previous patches
linked in phabricator)
Based on work by:
- Luke Geeson
- Oliver Stannard
- Luke Cheeseman
Why is this feature a number for AArch64, does >1 mean something?
