Description

This routine is deprecated. Use mkl_sparse_?_trsmfrom the Intel® oneAPI Math Kernel Library (oneMKL) Inspector-executor Sparse BLAS interface instead.

The mkl_?skysm routine solves a system of linear equations with matrix-matrix operations for a sparse matrix in the skyline storage format:

C := alpha*inv(A)*B

or

C := alpha*inv(AT)*B,

where:

alpha is scalar, B and C are dense matrices, A is a sparse upper or lower triangular matrix with unit or non-unit main diagonal, AT is the transpose of A.

NOTE:

This routine supports only one-based indexing of the input arrays.

Input Parameters

transa

Specifies the system of linear equations.

If transa = 'N' or 'n', then C := alpha*inv(A)*B,

If transa = 'T' or 't' or 'C' or 'c', then C := alpha*inv(AT)*B,

m

Number of rows of the matrix A.

n

Number of columns of the matrix C.

alpha

Specifies the scalar alpha.

matdescra

Array of six elements, specifies properties of the matrix used for operation. Only first four array elements are used, their possible values are given in Table “Possible Values of the Parameter matdescra (descra)”. Possible combinations of element values of this parameter are given in Table “Possible Combinations of Element Values of the Parameter matdescra.

NOTE:

General matrices (matdescra[0]='G') is not supported.

val

Array containing the set of elements of the matrix A in the skyline profile form.

If matdescrsa[2]= 'L', then val contains elements from the low triangle of the matrix A.

If matdescrsa[2]= 'U', then val contains elements from the upper triangle of the matrix A.

Refer to values array description in Skyline Storage Scheme for more details.

pntr

Array of length (m + 1) for lower triangle, and (n + 1) for upper triangle.

It contains the indices specifying the positions of the first element of the matrix A in each row (for the lower triangle) or column (for upper triangle) in the val array such that val[pntr[i] - 1] is the first element in row or column i + 1. Refer to pointers array description in Skyline Storage Scheme for more details.

b

Array, size ldb* n.

On entry the leading m-by-n part of the array b must contain the matrix B.

ldb

Specifies the leading dimension of b as declared in the calling (sub)program.

ldc

Specifies the leading dimension of c as declared in the calling (sub)program.

Output Parameters

c

Array, size ldc by n.

The leading m-by-n part of the array c contains the matrix C.
