Re: [eigen] BTL for benchmarking blas implementations

[ Thread Index | Date Index | More lists.tuxfamily.org/eigen Archives ]


Regarding BLAS interfaces, we already support MKL, ATLAS, ACML, MKL,
GotoBLAS 1 and 2, and Eigen's BLAS interface. If you want to add
another one then edit the file btl/libs/BLAS/CMakeLists.txt.

You can disable the compilation of some tests using ccmake and toggle
the various BTL_* variables.

For the rest everything is explained in the README and/or on the wiki:
