Usage

make
./test.x

Debug printing is on by default. That is because this is an education project. If you want to use this code in product, please modify appropriately. Without debug printing, the cost of calling vpu_count() may be as low as 2.2 microseconds.

The program empirical.x is not recommended but exists in the repository for historical reasons.

Summary

The intended user of this project is the developer of a numerical library that needs to know the throughput of floating-point FMA (fused multiply-add) on Intel® processors that support AVX-512. This project does not attempt to address the throughput of other operations, such as shuffles, permutations, or non-floating-point instructions.

The project provides example code to show a user how to determine the number of AVX-512 FMAs in Intel® Xeon® Scalable processors. We encourage potential users to adapt the code to their usage, as some of the code included is rather pedantic (although this doesn't add significant runtime overhead unless debug printing is enabled).

Relevant processors include:

  • Intel® Xeon® Scalable Processors
  • Intel® Xeon® W Processors
  • Intel® Xeon® D Processors
  • Intel® Core™ X-series Processors

Intel® Xeon Phi™ processors are not covered here.
