Remove option of providing Technique and handling errors based on that
choose a matrix type automatically based on number of data blocks.
INTEL recommends on using cauchy for consistent invertible matrices,
while vandermonde is faster we should default to cauchy for large
data blocks.
- over the course of a project history every maintainer needs to update
its dependency packages, the problem essentially with godep is manipulating
GOPATH - this manipulation leads to static objects created at different locations
which end up conflicting with the overall functionality of golang.
This also leads to broken builds. There is no easier way out of this other than
asking developers to do 'godep restore' all the time. Which perhaps as a practice
doesn't sound like a clean solution. On the other hand 'godep restore' has its own
set of problems.
- govendor is a right tool but a stop gap tool until we wait for golangs official
1.5 version which fixes this vendoring issue once and for all.
- govendor provides consistency in terms of how import paths should be handled unlike
manipulation GOPATH.
This has advantages
- no more compiled objects being referenced in GOPATH and build time GOPATH
manging which leads to conflicts.
- proper import paths referencing the exact package a project is dependent on.
govendor is simple and provides the minimal necessary tooling to achieve this.
For now this is the right solution.
- These changes bring in a much needed Mac OSX port for
Intel ISAL library
- At the current stage this MacOSX part of code is
considered beta
- pkg/cpu now supports OSX
- pkg/checksum/crc32c - is still WIP, rest of the packages
have been validated
