A method is described herein. The method generally includes receiving stream parameters that defines an array, wherein the stream parameters include a first null element count and a second null element count. The method generally includes forming a stream of vectors for the multidimensional array responsive to the stream parameters. The stream of vectors generally includes a vector of null elements at a beginning of the stream of vectors based on the first null element count. The stream of vectors generally includes a null element at a beginning of each vector of the stream of vectors based on the second null element count. The stream of vectors generally includes a set of data distributed across a subset of the stream of vectors. The method generally includes providing the stream of vectors.

Padding and suppressing rows and columns of data

A method is described herein. The method generally includes fetching a set of data from a memory coupled to a memory controller. The method generally includes determining a first subset of data from the set of data. The method generally includes determining a second subset of data from the set of data. The method generally includes determining a first element from the set of data. The method generally includes providing a vector including the first subset, the first element, and the second subset, wherein each element of the first subset is disposed in one portion of the vector and each element of the second subset is disposed in another portion of the vector. The method generally includes storing the vector into a register of the memory controller.
