oneAPI Math Kernel Library (oneMKL) Interfaces

oneMKL Interfaces is an open-source implementation of the oneMKL Data Parallel C++ (DPC++) interface according to the oneMKL specification. It works with multiple devices (backends) using device-specific libraries underneath.

oneMKL is part of the UXL Foundation.

Support and Requirements

Supported Usage Models:

Host API

There are two oneMKL selector layer implementations:

  • Run-time dispatching: The application is linked with the oneMKL 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:

    #include "oneapi/mkl.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::mkl::blas::column_major::gemm(cpu_queue, transA, transB, m, ...);
    oneapi::mkl::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:

    $> icpx -fsycl –I$ONEMKL/include app.cpp
    $> icpx -fsycl app.o –L$ONEMKL/lib –lonemkl
  • 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 oneMKL backend wrapper libraries (libraries can be static or dynamic).

    Example of app.cpp with compile-time dispatching:

    #include "oneapi/mkl.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::mkl::backend_selector<oneapi::mkl::backend::mklcpu> cpu_selector(cpu_queue);
    
    oneapi::mkl::blas::column_major::gemm(cpu_selector, transA, transB, m, ...);
    oneapi::mkl::blas::column_major::gemm(oneapi::mkl::backend_selector<oneapi::mkl::backend::cublas> {gpu_queue}, transA, transB, m, ...);

    How to build an application with compile-time dispatching:

    $> clang++ -fsycl –I$ONEMKL/include app.cpp
    $> clang++ -fsycl app.o –L$ONEMKL/lib –lonemkl_blas_mklcpu –lonemkl_blas_cublas

Refer to Selecting a Compiler 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). Currently, the following domains support the Device API:

  • RNG. To use RNG Device API functionality it's required to include oneapi/mkl/rng/device.hpp header file.

Supported Configurations:

Supported domains include: BLAS, LAPACK, RNG, DFT, SPARSE_BLAS

Supported compilers include:

  • Intel(R) 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: 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 (formerly known as hipSYCL): Open source compiler that supports CPUs and Intel, NVIDIA, and AMD GPUs.
    Note: The source code and some documents in this project still use the previous name hipSYCL during this transition period.

FAQs

oneMKL

Q: What is the difference between the following oneMKL items?

A:

  • The oneAPI Specification for oneMKL defines the DPC++ interfaces for performance math library functions. The oneMKL specification can evolve faster and more frequently than implementations of the specification.

  • The oneAPI Math Kernel Library (oneMKL) Interfaces Project is an open source implementation of the specification. The project goal is to demonstrate how the DPC++ interfaces documented in the oneMKL 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) product is the Intel product implementation of the specification (with DPC++ interfaces) as well as similar functionality with C and Fortran interfaces, and is provided as part of Intel® oneAPI Base Toolkit. It is highly optimized for Intel CPU and Intel GPU hardware.

Q: I'm trying to use oneMKL Interfaces in my project using FetchContent, but I keep running into ONEMKL::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 oneMKL Interfaces in my project using find_package(oneMKL). I set oneMKL/oneTBB and Compiler environment first, then I built and installed oneMKL Interfaces, and finally I tried to build my project using installed oneMKL Interfaces (e.g. like this cmake -Bbuild -GNinja -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=icpx -DoneMKL_ROOT=<path_to_installed_oneMKL_interfaces> .) and I noticed that cmake includes installed oneMKL Interfaces headers as a system include which ends up as a lower priority than the installed oneMKL package includes which I set before for building oneMKL Interfaces. As a result, I get conflicts between oneMKL and installed oneMKL Interfaces headers. What should I do?

A: Having installed oneMKL Interfaces headers as -I instead on system includes (as -isystem) helps to resolve this problem. We use INTERFACE_INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES to add paths to installed oneMKL Interfaces headers (check oneMKLTargets.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 oneMKL Interfaces 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).
