## ACL Execution Provider
|
|
|
|
[Arm Compute Library](https://github.com/ARM-software/ComputeLibrary) is an open source inference engine maintained by Arm and Linaro companies. The integration of ACL as an execution provider (EP) into ONNX Runtime accelerates performance of ONNX model workloads across Armv8 cores.
|
|
|
|
### Build ACL execution provider
|
|
Developers can use ACL library through ONNX Runtime to accelerate inference performance of ONNX models. Instructions for building the ACL execution provider from the source is available below.
|
|
|
|
### Supported BSP
|
|
* i.MX8QM BSP
|
|
Install i.MX8QM BSP:
|
|
```
|
|
source fsl-imx-xwayland-glibc-x86_64-fsl-image-qt5-aarch64-toolchain-4*.sh
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Setup build environment:
|
|
```
|
|
source /opt/fsl-imx-xwayland/4.*/environment-setup-aarch64-poky-linux
|
|
alias cmake="/usr/bin/cmake -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=$OECORE_NATIVE_SYSROOT/usr/share/cmake/OEToolchainConfig.cmake"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Confiure ONNX Runtime with ACL support:
|
|
```
|
|
cmake ../onnxruntime-arm-upstream/cmake -DONNX_CUSTOM_PROTOC_EXECUTABLE=/usr/bin/protoc -Donnxruntime_RUN_ONNX_TESTS=OFF -Donnxruntime_GENERATE_TEST_REPORTS=ON -Donnxruntime_DEV_MODE=ON -DPYTHON_EXECUTABLE=/usr/bin/python3 -Donnxruntime_USE_CUDA=OFF -Donnxruntime_USE_NSYNC=OFF -Donnxruntime_CUDNN_HOME= -Donnxruntime_USE_JEMALLOC=OFF -Donnxruntime_ENABLE_PYTHON=OFF -Donnxruntime_BUILD_CSHARP=OFF -Donnxruntime_BUILD_SHARED_LIB=ON -Donnxruntime_USE_EIGEN_FOR_BLAS=ON -Donnxruntime_USE_OPENBLAS=OFF -Donnxruntime_USE_ACL=ON -Donnxruntime_USE_MKLDNN=OFF -Donnxruntime_USE_MKLML=OFF -Donnxruntime_USE_OPENMP=ON -Donnxruntime_USE_TVM=OFF -Donnxruntime_USE_LLVM=OFF -Donnxruntime_ENABLE_MICROSOFT_INTERNAL=OFF -Donnxruntime_USE_BRAINSLICE=OFF -Donnxruntime_USE_NUPHAR=OFF -Donnxruntime_USE_EIGEN_THREADPOOL=OFF -Donnxruntime_BUILD_UNIT_TESTS=ON -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RelWithDebInfo
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Build ONNX Runtime library, test and performance application:
|
|
```
|
|
make -j 6
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Deploy ONNX runtime on the i.MX 8QM board
|
|
```
|
|
libonnxruntime.so.0.5.0
|
|
onnxruntime_perf_test
|
|
onnxruntime_test_all
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Supported backend
|
|
* i.MX8QM Armv8 CPUs
|
|
|
|
### Using the ACL execution provider
|
|
#### C/C++
|
|
To use ACL as execution provider for inferencing, please register it as below.
|
|
```
|
|
InferenceSession session_object{so};
|
|
session_object.RegisterExecutionProvider(std::make_unique<::onnxruntime::ACLExecutionProvider>());
|
|
status = session_object.Load(model_file_name);
|
|
```
|
|
The C API details are [here](../C_API.md#c-api).
|
|
|
|
### Performance Tuning
|
|
For performance tuning, please see guidance on this page: [ONNX Runtime Perf Tuning](../ONNX_Runtime_Perf_Tuning.md)
|
|
|
|
When/if using [onnxruntime_perf_test](../../onnxruntime/test/perftest), use the flag -e acl
