What's new in KFR 6

  • DFT performance has been improved up to 40% (backported to KFR 5.2.0 branch)
  • C API for non x86 architectures
  • DSP refactoring with easier initialization
  • Multiarchitecture for resampling, FIR and IIR filters
  • matrix_transpose: optimized matrix transpose (square/non-square, inplace/out-of-place, real/complex, scalar/vectors)
  • CMake config file generation (find_package(KFR CONFIG) support, see installation)
  • .npy format support (reading/writing, v1/v2, c/fortran order, real/complex, bigendian/littleendian)
  • Multidimensional DFT: real/complex
  • inline_vector
  • Windows arm64 support
  • Emscripten (wasm/wasm64) support

Other changes

  • CMake minimum version is 3.12
  • Multidimensional reference DFT
  • Easier cross compilation to ARM64 on x86_64 macOS
  • Automated tests using GitHub Actions (previously Azure Pipelines)
  • GCC 7 and 8: emulate missing avx-512 instrinsics
  • read_group and write_group
  • [❗breaking change] reshape_may_copy and flatten_may_copy in tensor<> allows copying by default
  • shape<>::transpose function
  • tensor<>::transpose function
  • convert_endianess
  • DFT, DSP and IO sources have been moved to src/ directory
  • Multiarchitecture is enabled by default
  • KFR_DFT_NO_NPo2 has been removed (assumed always enabled)
  • Tests refactoring
  • Some tests moved to tests/internal/
  • [❗breaking change] Scalars are now passed by value in expressions (this fixes dangling references in some cases)
  • Expression functions should return expression_make_function instead of expression_function
  • KFR_WITH_CLANG
  • KFR_VERSION CMake variable
  • Functions to get module versions (library_version_dft, library_version_dsp etc)
  • Exceptions are no longer enforced in MSVC
  • kfr::complex removed (use std::complex instead). KFR_STD_COMPLEX cmake variable removed too
  • strides_for_shape for fortran order
  • AARCH and ARM emulation refactoring (dynamic libraries are now supported)
  • call_with_temp
  • maximum_dims is now 16 (was 8)
  • to_fmt/from_fmt supports inplace
  • shape refactoring: rotate_left, rotate_right, remove_back, remove_front
  • temp argument can be nullptr for DFT (temporary buffer will be allocated on stack or heap)
  • dft_plan and similar classes have now default and move constructors
  • -DCMAKE_POSITION_INDEPENDENT_CODE=ON is required for building C API
  • ci/run.sh can now build in a directory outside source tree
  • [❗breaking change]graphics/color.hpp and graphics/geometry.hpp have been removed
  • Simpler CMT_CVAL macro
  • /Zc:lambda is now required for building KFR in MSVC
  • println for string_view
  • MSVC internal compiler error fixed
  • Complex vector operators fixed
