Abstract: Disclosed embodiments relate to accelerating multiplication of sparse matrices. In one example, a processor is to fetch and decode an instruction having fields to specify locations of first, second, and third matrices, and an opcode indicating the processor is to multiply and accumulate matching non-zero (NZ) elements of the first and second matrices with corresponding elements of the third matrix, and executing the decoded instruction as per the opcode to generate NZ bitmasks for the first and second matrices, broadcast up to two NZ elements at a time from each row of the first matrix and each column of the second matrix to a processing engine (PE) grid, each PE to multiply and accumulate matching NZ elements of the first and second matrices with corresponding elements of the third matrix. Each PE further to store an NZ element for use in a subsequent multiplications.

Abstract: Disclosed embodiments relate to computing dot products of nibbles in tile operands. In one example, a processor includes decode circuitry to decode a tile dot product instruction having fields for an opcode, a destination identifier to identify a M by N destination matrix, a first source identifier to identify a M by K first source matrix, and a second source identifier to identify a K by N second source matrix, each of the matrices containing doubleword elements, and execution circuitry to execute the decoded instruction to perform a flow K times for each element (m, n) of the specified destination matrix to generate eight products by multiplying each nibble of a doubleword element (M,K) of the specified first source matrix by a corresponding nibble of a doubleword element (K,N) of the specified second source matrix, and to accumulate and saturate the eight products with previous contents of the doubleword element.

Abstract: Disclosed embodiments relate to matrix compress/decompress instructions. In one example, a processor includes fetch circuitry to fetch a compress instruction having a format with fields to specify an opcode and locations of decompressed source and compressed destination matrices, decode circuitry to decode the fetched compress instructions, and execution circuitry, responsive to the decoded compress instruction, to: generate a compressed result according to a compress algorithm by compressing the specified decompressed source matrix by either packing non-zero-valued elements together and storing the matrix position of each non-zero-valued element in a header, or using fewer bits to represent one or more elements and using the header to identify matrix elements being represented by fewer bits; and store the compressed result to the specified compressed destination matrix.

Abstract: Embodiments detailed herein relate to matrix operations. In particular, the loading of a matrix (tile) from memory. For example, support for a loading instruction is described in the form of decode circuitry to decode an instruction having fields for an opcode, a destination matrix operand identifier, and source memory information, and execution circuitry to execute the decoded instruction to load groups of strided data elements from memory into configured rows of the identified destination matrix operand to memory.

Abstract: Embodiments detailed herein relate to matrix (tile) operations. For example, decode circuitry to decode an instruction having fields for an opcode and a memory address; and execution circuitry to execute the decoded instruction to set a tile configuration for the processor to utilize tiles in matrix operations based on a description retrieved from the memory address, wherein a tile a set of 2-dimensional registers are discussed.

Abstract: Disclosed embodiments relate to efficient complex vector multiplication. In one example, an apparatus includes execution circuitry, responsive to an instruction having fields to specify multiplier, multiplicand, and summand complex vectors, to perform two operations: first, to generate a double-even multiplicand by duplicating even elements of the specified multiplicand, and to generate a temporary vector using a fused multiply-add (FMA) circuit having A, B, and C inputs set to the specified multiplier, the double-even multiplicand, and the specified summand, respectively, and second, to generate a double-odd multiplicand by duplicating odd elements of the specified multiplicand, to generate a swapped multiplier by swapping even and odd elements of the specified multiplier, and to generate a result using a second FMA circuit having its even product negated, and having A, B, and C inputs set to the swapped multiplier, the double-odd multiplicand, and the temporary vector, respectively.

Abstract: A method of an aspect includes receiving an instruction. The instruction indicates an integer stride, indicates an integer offset, and indicates a destination storage location. A result is stored in the destination storage location in response to the instruction. The result includes a sequence of at least four integers in numerical order with a smallest one of the at least four integers differing from zero by the integer offset and with all integers of the sequence in consecutive positions differing by the integer stride. Other methods, apparatus, systems, and instructions are disclosed.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and apparatuses for data speculation execution (DSX) are described. In some embodiments, a hardware apparatus for DSX comprises execution hardware to execute instructions to begin and end a data speculative execution (DSX) and speculative instructions during the DSX, and DSX tracking hardware to track speculative memory accesses and detect ordering violations in a DSX of speculative instructions using a sequence number, addresses of instruction accesses, and whether an instruction being tracked is a write, and to trigger a mis-speculation upon an ordering violation.
