1.16.2
dddaf12

This minor update can resolve an issue where the OS installation (on a legacy system) does not signal about saving the state for contexts using instruction set extensions like SSE. The problem was resolved in LIBXSMM's main development branch already a long time ago. The problem was discovered in certain Virtual Machine installations (VMs) as well as on some OS installations (e.g., here).

INTRODUCED

  • New functionality and new features continue to remain with LIBXSMM's main revision (under development).

IMPROVEMENTS / CHANGES / FIXES

  • Adopt code-path even if OS does not properly signal support for an ISA extension.

Note: version 1.16.2 leverages the same code base as version 1.16.1 (except for a single line of code applying above mentioned fix). All new features, fixes, and development progress remain unreleased. As per LIBXSMM's policy to keep the master/main branch stable, one can take the latter to leverage new features, fixes, and development progress.
