The AMD BLIS library, with attribute <literal>amd-blis</literal>,
provides a BLAS implementation. The complementary AMD LIBFLAME
library, with attribute <literal>amd-libflame</literal>, provides
a LAPACK implementation.
BLIS, available through the attribute
<literal>blis</literal>, is a framework for linear algebra kernels. In
addition, it implements the BLAS interface.

</para>
<para>
The AMD fork of the BLIS library, with attribute
<literal>amd-blis</literal>, extends BLIS with optimizations for
modern AMD CPUs. The changes are usually submitted to
the upstream BLIS project after some time. However, AMD BLIS
typically provides some performance improvements on AMD Zen CPUs.
The complementary AMD LIBFLAME library, with attribute
<literal>amd-libflame</literal>, provides a LAPACK implementation.
