AMX
wikipedia:Advanced Matrix Extensions (AMX), also known as Intel Advanced Matrix Extensions (Intel AMX), are extensions to the x86 instruction set architecture (ISA) for microprocessors from Intel and Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) designed to work on matrices to accelerate artificial intelligence (AI) / machine learning (ML) -related workloads.[1]
Extensions[edit]
AMX was introduced by Intel in June 2020 and first supported by Intel with the Sapphire Rapids microarchitecture for Xeon servers, planned for 2021.[2][3] It introduced 2-dimensional registers called tiles upon which accelerators can perform operations. It is intended as an extensible architecture, the first accelerator implemented is called tile matrix multiply unit (TMUL).[4] [5]
Software support[edit]
- Compiler and assembler support
- Operating system support
- glibc support for detecting AMX feature in CPUs committed at 25 Jun 2020[11]
- Linux kernel support is available since 5.16[12]
