Primitive Creation/Dispatching

VERBOSE MESSAGE

SUBSTRING

PRIMITIVE

EXPLANATION

Bad/Invalid Arguments

bad algorithm

all

Bad or invalid algorithm dnnl::algorithm selected for the current primitive implementation. The choice and availability of the algorithm depends on the specific implementation selected for the primitive. For example, oneDNN supports Winograd convolution only on GPU and AArch64 CPU systems.

bad propagation kind

all

Incorrect propagation kind dnnl::prop_kind ( forward_training , backward_weights , backward_data , etc.) selected for the current primitive implementation.

bad param <p>

p - initialization parameter for dnnl::primitive_desc

all

Invalid parameter passed for the initialization of the primitive descriptor. Example : For the group_normalization primitive, this message is displayed when the value passed for the groups parameter does not evenly divide the number of channels for the source tensor.

one of the mandatory arguments is nullptr

all

A NULL pointer argument exception for the primitive methods.

bad flags

all

Bad or unsupported flags specified for the initialization of the primitive descriptor dnnl::primitive_desc .

Unsupported Arguments/Parameters

unsupported isa

all

Primitive implementation does not support the current ISA. This typically results in the dispatching to the next best supporting implementation for the ISA.

unsupported datatype

all

Tensor data type is not supported for the current implementation of the primitive. Depending on the primitive, this may correspond to the source, weights, bias or destination tensors.

unsupported datatype combination

all

Datatype combination for source, weights, bias or destination tensors is not supported for the current primitive implementation.

unsupported attr

all

Bad or unsupported attributes dnnl::primitive_attr passed to the primitive descriptor for the current implementation. Since attributes are separately created from the corresponding primitive descriptor, the selected primitive implementation may not support the attribute configuration.

unsupported post-ops

all

Unsupported post-ops configuration dnnl::post_ops passed on to the primitive descriptor. Similar to dnnl::primitive_attr , the selected implementation may not support the postop configuration during primitve creation.

unsupported scales configuration

all

Unsupported scales configuration specified for the primitive attributes dnnl::primitive_attr .

dimension <t0>:<a0> is inconsistent with <t1>:<a1>

t0, t1 - tensors, a0, a1 - tensor axes

all

Tensors t0, t1 have inconsistent dimensions along axes a0 and a1 respectively. Example : This is encountered for the matmul primitive when the input matrices have mismatching dimensions.

all

One of the dimensions of tensor t is beyond the maximum range that can be processed by the current implementation.
