# Changes

This release contains all of the bug fixes from v1.0.1  
and v1.0.2 as well as new features and other changes that  
didn’t belong on maint. The following is a summary of  
non-maint changes.

## Architectures

New architectures exist for the AVX2 and FMA ISAs. Along  
with the build-system support the following kernels have  
no proto-kernels taking advantage of these architectures:

- 32f\_x2\_dot\_prod\_32f
- 32fc\_x2\_multiply\_32fc
- 64\_byteswap
- 32f\_binary\_slicer\_8i
- 16u\_byteswap
- 32u\_byteswap

## QA/profiler

The profiler now generates buffers that are vlen + a tiny  
amount and generates random data to fill buffers. This is  
intended to catch bugs in protokernels that write beyond  
num\_points.
