question about axpby

Would "axpby" (https://oneapi-src.github.io/oneMKL/domains/blas/axpby.html) be added to hip/roc-BLAS ?

Hello @jinz2014. We do not have a compelling enough use case to add axpby. We could reconsider adding axpby and reopen this issue if we knew of a use case. It can also be noted that hipBLAS is a compatibility layer for rocBLAS and cuBLAS. axpby is not part of cuBLAS, so if it was added it would be more appropriate to add it to rocBLAS.
