axpy

Computes a vector-scalar product and adds the result to a vector.

Description

The axpy routines compute a scalar-vector product and add the result to a vector:

\[y \leftarrow alpha * x + y\]

where:

x and y are vectors of n elements,

alpha is a scalar.

axpy supports the following precisions.

T

float

double

std::complex<float>

std::complex<double>

Syntax

namespace oneapi::mkl::blas::column_major {
    void axpy(sycl::queue &queue,
              std::int64_t n,
              T alpha,
              sycl::buffer<T,1> &x,
              std::int64_t incx,
              sycl::buffer<T,1> &y,
              std::int64_t incy)
}
namespace oneapi::mkl::blas::row_major {
    void axpy(sycl::queue &queue,
              std::int64_t n,
              T alpha,
              sycl::buffer<T,1> &x,
              std::int64_t incx,
              sycl::buffer<T,1> &y,
              std::int64_t incy)
}

Input Parameters

queue

The queue where the routine should be executed.

n

Number of elements in vector x.

alpha

Specifies the scalar alpha.

x

Buffer holding input vector x. The buffer must be of size at least (1 + (n – 1)*abs(incx)). See Matrix Storage for more details.

incx

Stride of vector x.

y

Buffer holding input vector y. The buffer must be of size at least (1 + (n – 1)*abs(incy)). See Matrix Storage for more details.

incy

Stride of vector y.

Output Parameters

y

Buffer holding the updated vector y.

}

Input Parameters

queue

The queue where the routine should be executed.

n

Number of elements in vector x.

alpha

Specifies the scalar alpha.

x

Pointer to the input vector x. The array holding the vector x must be of size at least (1 + (n – 1)*abs(incx)). See Matrix Storage for more details.

incx

Stride of vector x.

y

Pointer to the input vector y. The array holding the vector y must be of size at least (1 + (n – 1)*abs(incy)). See Matrix Storage for more details.

incy

dependencies

List of events to wait for before starting computation, if any. If omitted, defaults to no dependencies.

Output Parameters

y

Pointer to the updated vector y.

Return Values

Output event to wait on to ensure computation is complete.
