# Atlas detects the CPU and optimizes its build accordingly. This is great when
# the code is run on the same machine that built the binary, but in case of a
# central build farm like Hydra, this feature is dangerous because the code may
# be generated utilizing fancy features that users who download the binary
# cannot execute.
#
# To avoid these issues, the build is configured using the 'cpuConfig'
# parameter. Upstream recommends these defaults for distributions:
#
# | x86 CPU | x86_64 CPU |
# |---------------------------------------------+------------------------|
# | -b 32 | -b 64 |
# | -A 12 (x86x87) | -A 14 (x86SSE2) |
# | -V 1 (No SIMD) | -V 384 (SSE1 and SSE2) |
#
# These defaults should give consistent performance across machines.
# Performance will be substantially lower than an optimized build, but a build
# optimized for one machine will give even worse performance on others. If you
# are a serious user of Atlas (e.g., you write code that uses it) you should
# compile an optimized version for each of your machines.
#
# The parameter 'cacheEdge' sets the L2 cache per core (in bytes). Setting this
# parameter reduces build time because some tests to detect the L2 cache size
# will not be run. It will also reduce impurity; different build nodes on Hydra
# may have different L2 cache sizes, but fixing the L2 cache size should
# account for that. This also makes the performance of binary substitutes more
# consistent.
#
# The -V flags can change with each release as new instruction sets are added
# because upstream thinks it's a good idea to add entries at the start of an
# enum, rather than the end. If the build suddenly fails with messages about
# missing instruction sets, you may need to poke around in the source a bit.
#
# Upstream recommends the x86x87/x86SSE2 architectures for generic x86/x86_64
# for distribution builds. Additionally, we set 'cacheEdge' to reduce impurity.
# Otherwise, the cache parameters will be detected by timing which will be
# highly variable on Hydra.

The ATLAS (Automatically Tuned Linear Algebra Software) project is an
ongoing research effort focusing on applying empirical techniques in
order to provide portable performance. At present, it provides C and
Fortran77 interfaces to a portably efficient BLAS implementation, as well
as a few routines from LAPACK.
