res_0
is used for increasing the instruction level parallelism in the following loop.Please confirm with godbolt.org, or let me know if I need to check this.

There is a slight difference between fp16_vec_inner_product_avx512 and fp16_vec_inner_product_avx512_batch_4:
fp16_vec_inner_product_avx512 : sum of (round(ab + m512_res)) + sum of (round(ab + m512_res_0))
fp16_vec_inner_product_avx512_batch_4: sum of (round(a*b + m512_res))

I see. It sounds reasonable, but please add comments in the corresponding

row the explanation of why it is done. Otherwise, someone may wish to 'optimize' the code back.Alternatively, it is possible (and it is a faster solution for the single-op version) to extend batch-4 version to match a single-op version instead. So, let batch-4 loop perform 8 FMA operations instead of 4 and let a single-op version perform 2 FMA operations, as it is now in the baseline.
I leave it up to you to decide whether you'd like to change it, bcz the hot spot is batch-4 version anyways.

I tested batch-4 loop perform 8 FMA operations, a little performance degradation existed in BF float16 search.
It is possible that the number of registers in avx512 is not enough for parallelism.
