What's New
Here are a few of the new features supported in this release for C7120 and C7504:
Upgrade and Compatibility Information
File | Change description | User application change required | User application recompile required |
Device Support
SoC | Host (OS) | Target (OS) | Test Platform |
C7x, MMA | No OS | No OS |
Validation Information
This release was built and validated using the following tools:
Build Tools (NOT included in MMALIB):
- C7x CGT C7000-CGT-3.1.0 LTS
Fixed Issues
- [MMALIB-561] DataConvert layer will cost too much time in inference when input tensor width is less than simd width for a given datatype
- [MMALIB-567] MMALIB_CNN_convolve_col_smallNo_ixX_ixX_oxX accesses memory beyond what is specified by the input source buffer (numGroupsPerKernel = 1)
Deprecation
-
The following functions will be deprecated after MMALIB.02.04.00.00 release for C7120. These are in the current build for migration from C7100 to C7120. The FFTLIB is created as a seperate package. The FFT kernels in MMALIB are old interface and will be deprecated.
- MMALIB_FFT_dftSmall_ixX_cxX_oxX
- MMALIB_FFT_dftLarge_ixX_cxX_oxX
- MMALIB_FFT_highRadixDecompositions_ixX_cxX_oxX
- MMALIB_FFT_fft_ixX_cxX_oxX
- MMALIB_fft1dBatched_i16sc_c16sc_o16sc [C7x only]
- MMALIB_fft1dBatched_i32fc_c32fc_o32fc [C7x only]
- MMALIB_fft1d_i16sc_c16sc_o16sc [C7x only]
- MMALIB_fft1d_i32fc_c32fc_o32fc [C7x only]

Package Versioning
Each package version is composed of 4 period-delimited numbers - represented here by the letters M, m, p and b [M.m.p.b]
. The table below provides a descriptive reference regarding package version numbering.
Digit | Meaning | Description |
---|---|---|
1 (M=Major) | Major revision | Incremented when the new version is substantially different from the previous For example, a new module added or an existing module's algorithm significantly altered. |
2 (m=minor) | Minor revision | Incremented when the new version has changed but not in a major way. For example, some minor changes in the API or feature set. |
3 (p=patch) | Patch number | Incremented for all other source code changes. This include any packaging support code. |
4 (b=build) | Build number | Incremented for each release delivery to CM. Reset for any change to M, m or p |
