MATRIX TRANSPOSE AND MULTIPLY

Abstract:

Embodiments for a matrix transpose and multiply operation are disclosed. In an embodiment, a processor includes a decoder and execution circuitry. The decoder is to decode an instruction having a format including an opcode field to specify an opcode, a first destination operand field to specify a destination matrix location, a first source operand field to specify a first source matrix location, and a second source operand field to specify a second source matrix location. The execution circuitry is to, in response to the decoded instruction, transpose the first source matrix to generate a transposed first source matrix, perform a matrix multiplication using the transposed first source matrix and the second source matrix to generate a result, and store the result in a destination matrix location.
