getrf (USM Version)
Computes the LU factorization of a general m-by-n matrix. This routine belongs to the oneapi::mkl::lapack namespace.
Description
The routine computes the LU factorization of a general m-by-n matrix A as
 
   where P is a permutation matrix, L is lower triangular with unit diagonal elements (lower trapezoidal if m > n) and U is upper triangular (upper trapezoidal if m < n). The routine uses partial pivoting, with row interchanges.

Input Parameters
- queue
 -  
     
Device queue where calculations will be performed.
 - m
 -  
     
The number of rows in the matrix A (0 ≤ m).
 - n
 -  
     
The number of columns in the matrix A (0 ≤ n).
 - a
 -  
     
Pointer to the array holding input matrix A. The array must be of size at least lda * max(1, n).
 - lda
 -  
     
The leading dimension of a (lda ≥ max(1, m)).
 - scratchpad
 -  
     
Pointer to scratchpad memory to be used by the routine for storing intermediate results.
 - scratchpad_size
 -  
     
Size of scratchpad memory as a number of floating point elements of type T. Size must not be less than the value returned by the getrf_scratchpad_size function.
 - events
 -  
     
List of events to wait for before starting computation. Defaults to empty list.
 
Output Parameters
- a
 -  
     
Overwritten by L and U. The unit diagonal elements of L are not stored.
 - ipiv
 -  
     
Array, size at least max(1,min(m,n)).
Contains the pivot indices; for 1 ≤ i ≤ min(m,n), row i was interchanged with row ipiv(i).
 
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, uii is 0. The factorization has been completed, but U is exactly singular. Division by 0 will occur if you use the factor U for solving a system of linear equations. 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 must 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.
