    Enumerate AVX Vector Neural Network instructions · b85a0425
    Kyung Min Park 提交于
    Add AVX version of the Vector Neural Network (VNNI) Instructions.
    
    A processor supports AVX VNNI instructions if CPUID.0x07.0x1:EAX[4] is
    present. The following instructions are available when this feature is
    present.
      1. VPDPBUS: Multiply and Add Unsigned and Signed Bytes
      2. VPDPBUSDS: Multiply and Add Unsigned and Signed Bytes with Saturation
      3. VPDPWSSD: Multiply and Add Signed Word Integers
      4. VPDPWSSDS: Multiply and Add Signed Integers with Saturation
    
    The only in-kernel usage of this is kvm passthrough. The CPU feature
    flag is shown as "avx_vnni" in /proc/cpuinfo.
    
    This instruction is currently documented in the latest "extensions"
    manual (ISE). It will appear in the "main" manual (SDM) in the future.
