Spatter 2.0 Release Notes

The 2.1 release of Spatter is a bugfix release that fixes several issues seen in the 2.0 release. Specifically, this release includes these changes:

  • Make OpenMP dense buffers a command line option with the --dense-buffers flag.
  • Initialize data buffers in parallel for the OpenMP backend
  • Fix a performance regression in the OpenMP backend seen with Sapphire Rapids systems
  • Readd the --atomic-thread-fence flag for the OpenMP backend.
  • Update GS kernel name to gs from sg to be consistent for all test scenarios.
