Abstract:
Systems, methods, and apparatuses relating to a matrix operations accelerator are described. In one embodiment, a processor includes a matrix operations accelerator circuit that includes a two-dimensional grid of fused multiply accumulate circuits; a first plurality of registers that represents an input two-dimensional matrix coupled to the matrix operations accelerator circuit; a decoder, of a core coupled to the matrix operations accelerator circuit, to decode an instruction into a decoded instruction; and an execution circuit of the core to execute the decoded instruction to cause the two-dimensional grid of fused multiply accumulate circuits to form a transpose of the input two-dimensional matrix when the matrix operations accelerator circuit is in a transpose mode.
