hipBLAS 2.1.0 for ROCm 6.1.1

hipBLAS code for ROCm 6.1.1 did not change. The library was rebuilt for the updated ROCm 6.1.1 stack.

hipBLAS 2.1.0 for ROCm 6.1.0

Additions

• New build option to automatically use hipconfig --platform to determine HIP platform
• Level 1 functions have additional ILP64 API for both C and Fortran (_64 name
  suffix) with int64_t function arguments
• New functions hipblasGetMathMode and hipblasSetMathMode

Deprecations

• USE_CUDA build option; use HIP_PLATFORM=amd or HIP_PLATFORM=nvidia to override hipconfig

Changes

• Some Level 2 function argument names have changed from m to n to match legacy BLAS; there
  was no change in implementation.
• Updated client code to use YAML-based testing
• Renamed .doxygen and .sphinx folders to doxygen and sphinx, respectively
• Added CMake support for documentation

hipBLAS 2.0.0 for ROCm 6.0.0

Added

• added option to define HIPBLAS_USE_HIP_BFLOAT16 to switch API to use hip_bfloat16 type
• added hipblasGemmExWithFlags API

Deprecated

• hipblasDatatype_t is deprecated and will be removed in a future release and replaced with hipDataType
• hipblasComplex and hipblasDoubleComplex are deprecated and will be removed in a future release and replaced with hipComplex and hipDoubleComplex
• use of hipblasDatatype_t for hipblasGemmEx for compute-type is deprecated and will be replaced with hipblasComputeType_t in a future release

Removed

• hipblasXtrmm that calculates B <- alpha * op(A) * B is removed and replaced with hipblasXtrmm that calculates C <- alpha * op(A) * B
