Research direction

The issue proposes Arm Performance Libraries support for macOS and ARM Linux in this LAPACK-binding package, but names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by locating the existing BLAS/LAPACK backend integration and determine how platform-specific libraries are selected. Done would require an agreed support scope and verified builds or tests for the supported ARM configurations.

Description

Dear ndarray-linalg team,

Is that possible to add support for arm high performance library (https://community.arm.com/arm-community-blogs/b/tools-software-ides-blog/posts/first-macos-release-of-arm-performance-libraries) for macOS or ARM Linux(https://developer.arm.com/Tools%20and%20Software/Arm%20Performance%20Libraries)? This is even more convenient than the MacOS default BLAS library (the accelerate framework) because it will work on any ARM CPUs I think? Some initial tests showed that it is somehow faster than openBLAS and accelerate framework for macOS.

Thanks,

Jianshu
