# What's New in CUTLASS 2.6
CUTLASS 2.6 is a minor update to CUTLASS adding:
- Fused [broadcast](test/unit/gemm/device/gemm_with_broadcast_f16n_f16n_f16n_tensorop_f32_sm75.cu) and [reductions](/test/unit/gemm/device/gemm_with_reduction_f16n_f16n_f16n_tensorop_f32_sm75.cu) in the epilogues of GEMM and Convolution
- [Quaternion-valued GEMM](/examples/21_quaternion_gemm/quaternion_gemm.cu) and [Convolution](/examples/22_quaternion_conv/quaternion_conv.cu) in single-precision
- [New strided Dgrad](test/unit/gemm/device/conv2d_strided_dgrad_implicit_gemm_f16nhwc_f16nhwc_f32nhwc_tensor_op_f32_sm80.cu) implementation offers up to 4x performance improvements over previous strided Dgrad
- 64-bit strides for large tensor allocations
- [General affine layouts](/examples/18_ampere_fp64_tensorop_affine2_gemm/ampere_fp64_tensorop_affine2_gemm.cu) fp64 tensor core and simt GEMM
- Enhanced functionality, boosted performance, and bug fixes in the epilogue.
- Optimal performance when compiled with the [CUDA 11.4 Toolkit](https://developer.nvidia.com/cuda-toolkit)
- Adopt new L2 prefetch feature in [ptx instruction](https://docs.nvidia.com/cuda/parallel-thread-execution/index.html#ptx-isa-version-7-4).
- Numerous updates from the community (thanks!)
