πŸ’… CBLAS/src/cblas_dgemm.c β€” like, the whole manual page, bestie

okay so this is a page from the Library Functions Manual for CBLAS/src/cblas_dgemm.c, and yes it's as niche as it sounds, but stick with me because it's actually kind of iconic πŸ’–


✨ NAME ✨

CBLAS/src/cblas_dgemm.c β€” that's it, that's the name, no cap 🫢


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include 'cblas.h'
#include 'cblas_f77.h'

πŸŽ€ Macros

these are the little shortcut gremlins that get defined, all eight of them, no skips:

#define F77_TA   &TA
#define F77_TB   &TB
#define F77_M   M
#define F77_N   N
#define F77_K   K
#define F77_lda   lda
#define F77_ldb   ldb
#define F77_ldc   ldc

πŸ¦‹ Functions

there's literally one function and she's the main character:

void API_SUFFIX cblas_dgemm (const CBLAS_LAYOUT layout, const
    CBLAS_TRANSPOSE TransA, const CBLAS_TRANSPOSE TransB, const
    CBLAS_INT M, const CBLAS_INT N, const CBLAS_INT K, const double
    alpha, const double *A, const CBLAS_INT lda, const double *B, const
    CBLAS_INT ldb, const double beta, double *C, const CBLAS_INT ldc)

look at her. all those const qualifiers? that's called boundaries, and she has them πŸ’…


πŸ’« MACRO DEFINITION DOCUMENTATION πŸ’«

so this section is just the macros again, doing their little encore. here they are, all named and defined, exactly as they appear:

#define F77_K K

#define F77_lda lda

#define F77_ldb ldb

#define F77_ldc ldc

#define F77_M M

#define F77_N N

#define F77_TA &TA

#define F77_TB &TB

no notes, they're doing great, they're just passing the values through to the Fortran side like little messengers 🧚


πŸ”₯ FUNCTION DOCUMENTATION πŸ”₯

void API_SUFFIX cblas_dgemm (...)

here's the full signature again because she deserves a second entrance, honestly:

void API_SUFFIX cblas_dgemm (const CBLAS_LAYOUT layout, const
    CBLAS_TRANSPOSE TransA, const CBLAS_TRANSPOSE TransB, const CBLAS_INT M,
    const CBLAS_INT N, const CBLAS_INT K, const double alpha, const double *
    A, const CBLAS_INT lda, const double * B, const CBLAS_INT ldb, const
    double beta, double * C, const CBLAS_INT ldc)

and where does she live? Definition at line 12 of file cblas_dgemm.c. πŸ“ like, line twelve. practically the front door. queen behavior πŸ‘‘

real talk: this page is a reference stub, so it tells you the exact signature and where it's defined, but it doesn't spill the algorithm tea. that's a different page's job πŸ™ˆ

so nobody hand-wrote this, it's a Doxygen baddie doing her automated thing. we respect the pipeline ✨


that's the whole page, bestie, every macro, every signature, every word 🌈


signing off with the deets: this was LAPACK, Version 3.12.0, page CBLAS/src/cblas_dgemm.c(3) β€” stay slay, stay compiled, and remember: const on your pointers is self-care πŸ’œπŸŽ€
