oneAPI Deep Neural Network Library (oneDNN)

This software was previously known as Intel(R) Math Kernel Library for Deep Neural Networks (Intel(R) MKL-DNN) and Deep Neural Network Library (DNNL).

oneAPI Deep Neural Network Library (oneDNN) is an open-source cross-platform performance library of basic building blocks for deep learning applications. The library is optimized for Intel Architecture Processors, Intel Processor Graphics and Xe architecture-based Graphics. oneDNN has experimental support for the following architectures:

  • Arm* 64-bit Architecture (AArch64)
  • NVIDIA* GPU
  • OpenPOWER* Power ISA (PPC64)
  • IBMz* (s390x)

oneDNN is intended for deep learning applications and framework developers interested in improving application performance on Intel CPUs and GPUs. Deep learning practitioners should use one of the applications enabled with oneDNN.

Table of Contents

Documentation

  • Developer guide explains programming model, supported functionality, and implementation details, and includes annotated examples.
  • API reference provides a comprehensive reference of the library API.

Installation

Binary distribution of this software is available as Intel oneAPI Deep Neural Network Library in Intel oneAPI.

Pre-built binaries for Linux*, Windows*, and macOS* are available for download in the releases section. Package names use the following convention:

OS Package name
Linux dnnl_lnx_<version>_cpu_<cpu runtime>[_gpu_<gpu runtime>].tgz
Windows dnnl_win_<version>_cpu_<cpu runtime>[_gpu_<gpu runtime>].zip
macOS dnnl_mac_<version>_cpu_<cpu runtime>.tgz

Several packages are available for each operating system to ensure interoperability with CPU or GPU runtime libraries used by the application.

Configuration Dependency
cpu_iomp Intel OpenMP runtime
cpu_gomp GNU* OpenMP runtime
cpu_vcomp Microsoft Visual C OpenMP runtime
cpu_tbb Threading Building Blocks (TBB)
cpu_dpcpp_gpu_dpcpp Intel oneAPI DPC++ Compiler, TBB, OpenCL runtime, oneAPI Level Zero runtime

The packages do not include library dependencies and these need to be resolved in the application at build time. See the System Requirements section below and the Build Options section in the developer guide for more details on CPU and GPU runtimes.

If the configuration you need is not available, you can build the library from source.

System Requirements

oneDNN supports platforms based on the following architectures:

WARNING

Arm 64-bit Architecture (AArch64), Power ISA (PPC64) and IBMz (s390x) support is experimental with limited testing validation.

The library is optimized for the following CPUs:

  • Intel Atom processor with Intel SSE4.1 support
  • 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th, and 8th generation Intel(R) Core(TM) processor
  • Intel(R) Xeon(R) processor E3, E5, and E7 family (formerly Sandy Bridge, Ivy Bridge, Haswell, and Broadwell)
  • Intel(R) Xeon Phi(TM) processor (formerly Knights Landing and Knights Mill)
  • Intel Xeon Scalable processor (formerly Skylake, Cascade Lake, and Cooper Lake)
  • future Intel Xeon Scalable processor (code name Sapphire Rapids)

On a CPU based on Intel 64 or on AMD64 architecture, oneDNN detects the instruction set architecture (ISA) at runtime and uses just-in-time (JIT) code generation to deploy the code optimized for the latest supported ISA. Future ISAs may have initial support in the library disabled by default and require the use of run-time controls to enable them. See CPU dispatcher control for more details.

On a CPU based on Arm AArch64 architecture, oneDNN can be built with Arm Compute Library integration. Compute Library is an open-source library for machine learning applications and provides AArch64 optimized implementations of core functions. This functionality currently requires that Compute Library is downloaded and built separately, see Build from Source. oneDNN is only compatible with Compute Library versions 21.02 or later.

WARNING

On macOS, applications that use oneDNN may need to request special entitlements if they use the hardened runtime. See the linking guide for more details.

The library is optimized for the following GPUs:

  • Intel HD Graphics
  • Intel UHD Graphics
  • Intel Iris Plus Graphics
  • Xe architecture-based Graphics (code named DG1 and Tiger Lake)

Requirements for Building from Source

oneDNN supports systems meeting the following requirements:

  • Operating system with Intel 64 / Arm 64 / Power / IBMz architecture support
  • C++ compiler with C++11 standard support
  • CMake 2.8.12 or later
  • Doxygen 1.8.5 or later to build the documentation
  • Arm Compute Library for builds using Compute Library on AArch64.

Configurations of CPU and GPU engines may introduce additional build time dependencies.

CPU Engine

oneDNN CPU engine is used to execute primitives on Intel Architecture Processors, 64-bit Arm Architecture (AArch64) processors, 64-bit Power ISA (PPC64) processors, IBMz (s390x), and compatible devices.

The CPU engine is built by default but can be disabled at build time by setting DNNL_CPU_RUNTIME to NONE. In this case, GPU engine must be enabled. The CPU engine can be configured to use the OpenMP, TBB or DPCPP runtime. The following additional requirements apply:

Some implementations rely on OpenMP 4.0 SIMD extensions. For the best performance results on Intel Architecture Processors we recommend using the Intel C++ Compiler.

GPU Engine

Intel Processor Graphics and Xe architecture-based Graphics are supported by the oneDNN GPU engine. The GPU engine is disabled in the default build configuration. The following additional requirements apply when GPU engine is enabled:

  • OpenCL runtime requires
    • OpenCL* runtime library (OpenCL version 1.2 or later)
    • OpenCL driver (with kernel language support for OpenCL C 2.0 or later) with Intel subgroups extension support
  • DPCPP runtime requires
  • DPCPP runtime with NVIDIA GPU support requires
    • oneAPI DPC++ Compiler
    • OpenCL runtime library (OpenCL version 1.2 or later)
    • NVIDIA CUDA* driver
    • cuBLAS 10.1 or later
    • cuDNN 7.6 or later

WARNING

NVIDIA GPU support is experimental. General information, build instructions and implementation limitations is available in NVIDIA backend readme.
