It can work with multiple devices using multiple libraries (backends) underneath. The oneMath project was previously referred to as oneMKL Interfaces. oneMath is part of the [UXL Foundation](http://www.uxlfoundation.org).

## Table of Contents - [Support and Requirements](#support-and-requirements) - [Documentation](#documentation) - [FAQs](#faqs) - [Legal Information](#legal-information) --- ## Support and Requirements ### Supported Usage Models: #### Host API There are two oneMath selector layer implementations: - **Run-time dispatching**: The application is linked with the oneMath library and the required backend is loaded at run-time based on device vendor (all libraries should be dynamic). Example of app.cpp with run-time dispatching: ```cpp #include "oneapi/math.hpp" ... cpu_dev = sycl::device(sycl::cpu_selector()); gpu_dev = sycl::device(sycl::gpu_selector()); sycl::queue cpu_queue(cpu_dev); sycl::queue gpu_queue(gpu_dev); oneapi::math::blas::column_major::gemm(cpu_queue, transA, transB, m, ...); oneapi::math::blas::column_major::gemm(gpu_queue, transA, transB, m, ...); ``` How to build an application with run-time dispatching: if OS is Linux, use icpx compiler. If OS is Windows, use icx compiler. Linux example: ```cmd $> icpx -fsycl –I$ONEMATH/include app.cpp $> icpx -fsycl app.o –L$ONEMATH/lib –lonemath ``` - **Compile-time dispatching**: The application uses a templated backend selector API where the template parameters specify the required backends and third-party libraries and the application is linked with the required oneMath backend wrapper libraries (libraries can be static or dynamic). Example of app.cpp with compile-time dispatching: ```cpp #include "oneapi/math.hpp" ... cpu_dev = sycl::device(sycl::cpu_selector()); gpu_dev = sycl::device(sycl::gpu_selector()); sycl::queue cpu_queue(cpu_dev); sycl::queue gpu_queue(gpu_dev); oneapi::math::backend_selector cpu_selector(cpu_queue); oneapi::math::blas::column_major::gemm(cpu_selector, transA, transB, m, ...); oneapi::math::blas::column_major::gemm(oneapi::math::backend_selector {gpu_queue}, transA, transB, m, ...); ``` How to build an application with compile-time dispatching: ```cmd $> clang++ -fsycl –I$ONEMATH/include app.cpp $> clang++ -fsycl app.o –L$ONEMATH/lib –lonemath_blas_mklcpu –lonemath_blas_cublas ``` *Refer to [Selecting a Compiler](https://uxlfoundation.github.io/oneMath/selecting_a_compiler.html) for the choice between `icpx/icx` and `clang++` compilers.* #### Device API Header-based and backend-independent Device API can be called within ```sycl kernel``` or work from Host code ([device-rng-usage-model-example](https://spec.oneapi.io/versions/latest/elements/oneMath/source/domains/rng/device_api/device-rng-usage-model.html#id2)). Currently, the following domains support the Device API: - **RNG**. To use RNG Device API functionality it's required to include ```oneapi/math/rng/device.hpp``` header file. ### Supported Configurations: Supported domains include: BLAS, LAPACK, RNG, DFT, SPARSE_BLAS Supported compilers include: - [Intel(R) oneAPI DPC++ Compiler](https://software.intel.com/en-us/oneapi/dpc-compiler): Intel proprietary compiler that supports CPUs and Intel GPUs. Intel(R) oneAPI DPC++ Compiler will be referred to as "Intel DPC++" in the "Supported Compiler" column of the tables below. - [oneAPI DPC++ Compiler](https://github.com/intel/llvm): Open source compiler that supports CPUs and Intel, NVIDIA, and AMD GPUs. oneAPI DPC++ Compiler will be referred to as "Open DPC++" in the "Supported Compiler" column of the tables below. - [AdaptiveCpp Compiler](https://github.com/AdaptiveCpp/AdaptiveCpp): Open source compiler that supports CPUs and Intel, NVIDIA, and AMD GPUs. #### Linux*

See [LICENSE](LICENSE) for more information. --- ## FAQs ### oneMath **Q: What is the difference between the following items?** - The [oneAPI Specification for oneMath](https://oneapi-spec.uxlfoundation.org/specifications/oneapi/latest/elements/onemath/source/) - The [oneAPI Math Library (oneMath)](https://github.com/uxlfoundation/oneMath) project - The [Intel(R) oneAPI Math Kernel Library (oneMKL)](https://software.intel.com/content/www/us/en/develop/tools/oneapi/components/onemkl.html) Product **A:** - The [oneAPI Specification for oneMath](https://oneapi-spec.uxlfoundation.org/specifications/oneapi/latest/elements/onemath/source/) defines the SYCL interfaces for performance math library functions. The oneMath specification can evolve faster and more frequently than implementations of the specification. - The [oneAPI Math Library (oneMath)](https://github.com/uxlfoundation/oneMath) project is an open source implementation of the specification. The project goal is to demonstrate how the SYCL interfaces documented in the oneMath specification can be implemented for any math library and work for any target hardware. While the implementation provided here may not yet be the full implementation of the specification, the goal is to build it out over time. We encourage the community to contribute to this project and help to extend support to multiple hardware targets and other math libraries. - The [Intel(R) oneAPI Math Kernel Library (oneMKL)](https://software.intel.com/content/www/us/en/develop/tools/oneapi/components/onemkl.html) project is an Intel product provided as part of the Intel(R) oneAPI Base Toolkit. It is used for the Intel backends of oneMath. Its C++ API is very similar to the oneMath specification. It is highly optimized for Intel CPU and Intel GPU hardware. **Q: I'm trying to use oneMath in my project using `FetchContent`**, but I keep running into `ONEMATH::SYCL::SYCL target was not found` problem when I try to build the project. What should I do? **A:** Make sure you set the compiler when you configure your project. E.g. `cmake -Bbuild . -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=icpx`. **Q: I'm trying to use oneMath in my project using `find_package(oneMath)`.** I set oneMath/oneTBB and Compiler environment first, then I built and installed oneMath, and finally I tried to build my project using installed oneMath (e.g. like this `cmake -Bbuild -GNinja -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=icpx -DoneMath_ROOT= .`) and I noticed that cmake includes installed oneMath headers as a system include which ends up as a lower priority than the installed Intel(R) oneAPI Math Kernel Library package includes which I set before for building oneMath. As a result, I get conflicts between Intel(R) oneAPI Math Kernel Library and installed oneMath headers. What should I do? **A:** Having installed oneMath headers as `-I` instead on system includes (as `-isystem`) helps to resolve this problem. We use `INTERFACE_INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES` to add paths to installed oneMath headers (check `oneMathTargets.cmake` in `lib/cmake` to find it). It's a known limitation that `INTERFACE_INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES` puts headers paths as system headers. To avoid that: - Option 1: Use CMake >=3.25. In this case oneMath will be built with `EXPORT_NO_SYSTEM` property set to `true` and you won't see the issue. - Option 2: If you use CMake < 3.25, set `PROPERTIES NO_SYSTEM_FROM_IMPORTED true` for your target. E.g: `set_target_properties(test PROPERTIES NO_SYSTEM_FROM_IMPORTED true)`. --- #### [Legal information](legal_information.md)
