Function Documentation

◆ dnnl_set_verbose()

dnnl_status_t DNNL_API dnnl_set_verbose ( int  level)

Configures verbose output to stdout.

Note
Enabling verbose output affects performance. This setting overrides the DNNL_VERBOSE environment variable.
Parameters
levelVerbosity level:
  • 0: no verbose output (default),
  • 1: primitive information at execution,
  • 2: primitive information at creation and execution.
Returns
dnnl_invalid_arguments/dnnl::status::invalid_arguments if the level value is invalid, and dnnl_success/dnnl::status::success on success.

◆ dnnl_set_jit_dump()

dnnl_status_t DNNL_API dnnl_set_jit_dump ( int  enable)

Configures dumping of JIT-generated code.

Note
This setting overrides the DNNL_JIT_DUMP environment variable.
Parameters
enableFlag value. Set to 0 to disable and set to 1 to enable.
Returns
dnnl_invalid_arguments/dnnl::status::invalid_arguments if the flag value is invalid, and dnnl_success/dnnl::status::success on success.

◆ dnnl_version()

const dnnl_version_t DNNL_API* dnnl_version ( )

Returns library version information.

Returns
Pointer to a constant structure containing
  • major: major version number,
  • minor: minor version number,
  • patch: patch release number,
  • hash: git commit hash.

◆ dnnl_set_jit_profiling_flags()

dnnl_status_t DNNL_API dnnl_set_jit_profiling_flags ( unsigned  flags)

Sets library profiling flags.

The flags define which profilers are supported.

Note
This setting overrides DNNL_JIT_PROFILE environment variable.
See also
Profiling DNNL performance
Parameters
flagsProfiling flags that can contain the following bits:

Passing DNNL_JIT_PROFILE_NONE disables profiling completely.

Returns
dnnl_invalid_arguments/dnnl::status::invalid_arguments if the flags value is invalid, and dnnl_success/dnnl::status::success on success.

◆ dnnl_set_jit_profiling_jitdumpdir()

dnnl_status_t DNNL_API dnnl_set_jit_profiling_jitdumpdir ( const char *  dir)

Sets JIT dump output path.

Only applicable to Linux and is only used when profiling flags have DNNL_JIT_PROFILE_LINUX_PERF bit set.

After the first JIT kernel is generated, the jitdump output will be placed into temporary directory created using the mkdtemp template 'dir/.debug/jit/dnnl.XXXXXX'.

See also
Profiling DNNL performance
Note
This setting overrides JITDUMPDIR environment variable. If JITDUMPDIR is not set, and this function is never called, the path defaults to HOME. Passing NULL reverts the value to default.
The directory is accessed only when the first JIT kernel is being created. JIT profiling will be disabled in case of any errors accessing or creating this directory.
Parameters
dirJIT dump output path.
Returns
dnnl_success/dnnl::status::success if the output directory was set correctly and an error status otherwise.
dnnl_unimplemented/dnnl::status::unimplemented on Windows.

◆ dnnl_set_max_cpu_isa()

dnnl_status_t DNNL_API dnnl_set_max_cpu_isa ( dnnl_cpu_isa_t  isa)

Sets the maximal ISA DNNL can dispatch to on the CPU.

See dnnl_cpu_isa_t and dnnl::cpu_isa for the list of the values accepted by the C and C++ API functions respectively.

This function has effect only before the first JIT kernel is generated and will return an error afterwards.

This function overrides the DNNL_MAX_CPU_ISA environment variable. The environment variable can be set to the desired maximal ISA name in upper case and with dnnl_cpu_isa prefix removed. For example: DNNL_MAX_CPU_ISA=AVX2.

Note
The ISAs are only partially ordered:
  • SSE41 < AVX < AVX2,
  • AVX2 < AVX512_MIC < AVX512_MIC_4OPS,
  • AVX2 < AVX512_CORE < AVX512_CORE_VNNI < AVX512_CORE_BF16.

CPU dispatcher control for more details
Parameters
isaMaximal ISA DNNL should dispatch to. Pass dnnl_cpu_isa_all/dnnl::cpu_isa::all to remove ISA restrictions.
Returns
dnnl_success/dnnl::status::success on success and a dnnl_invalid_arguments/dnnl::status::invalid_arguments if the isa parameter is invalid or the ISA cannot be changed at this time.
dnnl_unimplemented/dnnl::status::unimplemented if the feature was disabled at build time (see Build Options for more details).
