gesv (USM Version)
Computes the solution to the system of linear equations with a square coefficient matrix and multiple right-hand sides. This routine belongs to the oneapi::mkl::lapack namespace.
Description
The routine solves for X the system of linear equations A*X = B, where A is an n-by-n matrix, the columns of matrix B are individual right-hand sides, and the columns of X are the corresponding solutions.
The LU decomposition with partial pivoting and row interchanges is used to factor A as A = P*L*U, where P is a permutation matrix, L is unit lower triangular, and U is upper triangular. The factored form of A is then used to solve the system of equations A*X = B.

 -  
     
Device queue where calculations will be performed.
 - n
 -  
     
The order of the matrix A; (0 ≤ n).
 - nrhs
 -  
     
The number of right-hand sides (0 ≤ nrhs).
 - a
 -  
     
Pointer to the n-by-n coefficient matrix A.
 - lda
 -  
     
The leading dimension of a.
 - b
 -  
     
Pointer to the n-by-nrhs matrix of right hand side matrix B

 - b
 -

Exceptions
Exception  |  
        Description  |  
       
|---|---|
mkl::lapack::exception  |  
        This exception is thrown when problems occur during calculations. You can obtain the info code of the problem using the info() method of the exception object: If info = -i, the i-th parameter had an illegal value. If info = i, the i-th diagonal element of U is zero, and the solve could not be completed. If info is equal to the value passed as scratchpad size, and detail() returns non-zero, then the passed scratchpad has an insufficient size, and the required size should not be less than the value returned by the detail() method of the exception object.  |  
       
Return Values
Output event to wait on to ensure computation is complete.
