WARNING:

The output post_ops points to the internal attr field, so it is an error to modify or destroy them. The lifetime of post_ops is the same as that of the attr it belongs to, so it is an error to use post_ops after attr has been destroyed.

Parameters:

attr	Primitive attributes.
post_ops	Output post-ops.

Returns:

dnnl_success on success and a status describing the error otherwise.

dnnl_status_t DNNL_API dnnl_primitive_attr_set_post_ops(

    )

NOTE:

There is no way to check whether the post-ops would be supported by the target primitive. Any error will be reported by the dnnl_<primitive name>_[propagation kind]_primitive_desc_create() function call.

Parameters:

Post-ops to destroy.

Returns:

int DNNL_API dnnl_post_ops_len(const_dnnl_post_ops_t post_ops)

Returns the length of post-ops.

Parameters:

post_ops

Post-ops.

Returns:

The number of post-ops entries.

dnnl_primitive_kind_t DNNL_API dnnl_post_ops_get_kind(
    const_dnnl_post_ops_t post_ops,
    int index
    )

Returns the kind of a post-op entry.

Parameters:

post_ops	Post-ops.
index	Post-op entry index.

Returns:

The kind of the post-op with the specified index.

dnnl_undefined_primitive if there is no post-op at the specified index.

dnnl_status_t DNNL_API dnnl_post_ops_append_sum(
    dnnl_post_ops_t post_ops,
    float scale,
    int32_t zero_point,
    dnnl_data_type_t data_type
    )

Appends an accumulation v3 (sum) to post-ops.

Prior to accumulating the result, a zero point is subtracted from the previous value and is multiplied by the scale.

The kind of this post-op is dnnl_sum.

This feature may improve performance for cases like dequantize the asymmetrically quantized sum’s src1 tensor to f32 domain before performing the sum operation by subtracting the zero_point before the scaling.

In the simplest case where accumulation is the only post-op, the computations will be:

dst[:] <- scale * (dst[:] - zero_point) + op(...)
                                        // instead of dst[:] <- op(...)

If data_type is specified, original dst tensor will be reinterpreted as a tensor with provided data type. Since it is reinterpretation, data_type and dst data type should have the same size. As a result, computations will be:

dst[:] <- scale * (as_data_type(dst[:]) - zero_point) + op(...)
                                   // instead of dst[:] <- op(...)

NOTE:

This post-op executes in-place and does not change the destination layout.

Parameters:

post_ops	Post-ops.
scale	Accumulation scaling factor.
zero_point	Single scalar int32_t value of zero point.
data_type	Accumulation data_type.

Returns:

for a 2D CNN activations tensor the order is always (n, c)
for a 4D CNN activations tensor the order is always (n, c, h, w)
for a 5D CNN weights tensor the order is always (g, oc, ic, kh, kw)

Parameters:

post_ops	Post-ops.
mask	Defines the correspondence between the output tensor dimensions and the prelu weights tensor. The set i-th bit indicates that a dedicated weights value is used for each index along that dimension. Set the mask to 0 to use a common weights value for the whole output tensor.

Returns:

dnnl_success on success and a status describing the error otherwise.

dnnl_status_t DNNL_API dnnl_post_ops_get_params_prelu(
    const_dnnl_post_ops_t post_ops,
    int index,
    int* mask
    )

Returns the parameters of a prelu post-op.

Parameters:

post_ops	Post-ops.
index	Index of the prelu post-op.
mask	Mask of the prelu post-op.

dnnl_status_t DNNL_API dnnl_primitive_attr_set_rnn_data_qparams(
    dnnl_primitive_attr_t attr,
    const float scale,
    const float shift
    )

Set quantization scale and shift parameters for RNN data tensors.

For performance reasons, the low-precision configuration of the RNN primitives expects input activations to have the unsigned 8-bit integer data type. The scale and shift parameters are used to quantize floating-point data to unsigned integer and must be passed to the RNN primitive using attributes.

The quantization formula is scale * data + shift.

NOTE:

Quantization scale and shift are common for src_layer, src_iter, dst_iter, and dst_layer.

Example usage:

// RNN parameters
int l = 2, t = 2, mb = 32, sic = 32, slc = 32, dic = 32, dlc = 32;
// Activations quantization parameters
float scale = 63.f, shift = 64.f;

dnnl_primitive_attr_t rnn_attr;
// Create default attributes
dnnl_primitive_attr_create(&rnn_attr);

// Set scale and shift for int8 quantization of activation
dnnl_primitive_attr_set_rnn_data_qparams(rnn_attr, scale, shift);

// Create an RNN primitive descriptor.
dnnl_primitive_desc_t rnn_pd;
dnnl_vanilla_rnn_forward_primitive_desc_create(&rnn_pd,
        engine, /* arguments */, attr);

Parameters:

attr	Primitive attributes.
scale	The value to scale the data by.
shift	The value to shift the data by.

Returns:

dnnl_success on success and a status describing the error otherwise.

    const_dnnl_primitive_attr_t attr,
    float* scale,
    float* shift
    )

Returns the quantization scale and shift parameters for RNN data tensors.

NOTE:

Quantization scale and shift are common for src_layer, src_iter, dst_iter, and dst_layer.

Parameters:

attr	Primitive attributes.
scale	The value to scale the data by.
shift	The value to shift the data by.

Returns:

dnnl_success on success and a status describing the error otherwise.

dnnl_status_t DNNL_API dnnl_primitive_attr_set_rnn_weights_qparams(
    dnnl_primitive_attr_t attr,
    dnnl_dim_t count,
    int mask,
    const float* scales
    )

Sets quantization scaling factors for RNN weights tensors.

The low-precision configuration of the RNN primitives expects input weights to use the signed 8-bit integer data type. The scaling factors are used to quantize floating-point data to signed integer and must be passed to RNN primitives using attributes.

NOTE:

The dimension order is always native and does not depend on the actual layout used. For example, five-dimensional weights always have (l, d, i, g, o) logical dimension ordering.

NOTE:

Quantization scales are common for weights_layer and weights_iteration

Parameters:

attr	Primitive attributes.
count	Number of elements in the `scales` array.
mask	Scaling factors correspondence mask that defines the correspondence between the output tensor dimensions and the `scales` vector. The set i-th bit indicates that a dedicated scaling factor should be used for each index along that dimension. Set the mask to 0 to use a common scaling factor for the whole output tensor.
scales	Array of output scaling factors that must contain `count` values and the following equality must hold: Violations can only be detected when the attributes are used to create a primitive descriptor.

Returns:

dnnl_success on success and a status describing the error otherwise.
