The latest Intel® instruction-set architecture (ISA) for Intel® oneAPI Math Kernel Library to dispatch.
|
Intel® oneAPI Math Kernel Library does run-time processor dispatching to identify appropriate internal code paths to traverse for Intel® oneAPI Math Kernel Library functions called by the application. The mkl_enable_instructions function controls the behavior of the dispatcher to do either of the following:
Enable dispatching for new Intel architectures.
Intel® oneAPI Math Kernel Library does not dispatch instruction sets that do not have silicon available at time of the product launch. Callmkl_enable_instructions to enable dispatching the code path for such an ISA in a simulator environment or on hardware that supports this ISA.
Restrict the set of Intel instruction sets available for dispatching.
Call mkl_enable_instructions to restrict dispatching to code paths for earlier ISA. For example, if the hardware supports Intel AVX, a call to mkl_enable_instructions with the MKL_ENABLE_SSE4_2 parameter forces the dispatcher to use the Intel SSE4-2 code path.
If the system does not support the instruction set specified by the isa parameter or if the system is based on a non-Intel architecture, mkl_enable_instructions does nothing and returns zero.
Settings specified by the mkl_enable_instructions function set an upper limit to settings specified by the mkl_cbwr_set function.
You can use the MKL_ENABLE_INSTRUCTIONS environment variable instead of calling mkl_enable_instructions (for more details, see the Intel® oneAPI Math Kernel Library Developer Guide); however, the settings specified by the function take precedence over the settings specified by the environment variable.

Function completion status: 1 - Intel® oneAPI Math Kernel Library dispatches the code path for the specified ISA by default. 0 - The request is rejected. Usually this occurs if mkl_enable_instructions was called:
