Description

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

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

y := alpha*inv(A)*x

or

y := alpha*inv(AT)*x,

where:

alpha is scalar, x and y are vectors, 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

Parameter descriptions are common for all implemented interfaces with the exception of data types that refer here to the FORTRAN 77 standard types. Data types specific to the different interfaces are described in the section "Interfaces" below.

transa

CHARACTER*1. Specifies the system of linear equations.

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

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

m

INTEGER. Number of rows of the matrix A.

alpha

REAL for mkl_sskysv.

DOUBLE PRECISION for mkl_dskysv.

COMPLEX for mkl_cskysv.

DOUBLE COMPLEX for mkl_zskysv.

Specifies the scalar alpha.

matdescra

CHARACTER. 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(1)='G') is not supported.

val

REAL for mkl_sskysv.

DOUBLE PRECISION for mkl_dskysv.

COMPLEX for mkl_cskysv.

DOUBLE COMPLEX for mkl_zskysv.

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

If matdescra(2)= 'L', then val contains elements from the low triangle of the matrix A.

If matdescra(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

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

It contains the indices specifying in the val the positions of the first element in each row (column) of the matrix A. Refer to pointers array description in Skyline Storage Scheme for more details.

x

REAL for mkl_sskysv.

DOUBLE PRECISION for mkl_dskysv.

COMPLEX for mkl_cskysv.

DOUBLE COMPLEX for mkl_zskysv.

Array, size at least m.

On entry, the array x must contain the vector x. The elements are accessed with unit increment.

y

REAL for mkl_sskysv.

DOUBLE PRECISION for mkl_dskysv.

COMPLEX for mkl_cskysv.

DOUBLE COMPLEX for mkl_zskysv.

Array, size at least m.

On entry, the array y must contain the vector y. The elements are accessed with unit increment.

Output Parameters

y

Contains solution vector x.
