This is an example of the confusion. There is no such thing as *mkldnn variant of mkl*. There is MKLDNN - an independent addition to MKL. And there is a packed (and easier to download) version of MKL - MKLML. What is and was wrong though is the comment about this variable, since the option is not related to MKLDNN. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
