mkl_sparse_?_add

Computes the sum of two sparse matrices. The result is stored in a newly allocated sparse matrix.

Syntax

stat = mkl_sparse_s_add ( operation, A, alpha, B, C )

stat = mkl_sparse_d_add ( operation, A, alpha, B, C )

stat = mkl_sparse_c_add ( operation, A, alpha, B, C )

stat = mkl_sparse_z_add ( operation, A, alpha, B, C )

Description

The mkl_sparse_?_add routine performs a matrix-matrix operation:

\[C \leftarrow \alpha\cdot op(A) + B\]

where \(\alpha\) is a scalar, \(op()\) is a matrix modifier, and \(A\), \(B\), and \(C\) are sparse matrices.

NOTE:

This routine is only supported for sparse matrices in CSR and BSR formats. It is not supported for COO or CSC formats.

Input Parameters

A

SPARSE_MATRIX_T.

Handle which contains the sparse matrix \(A\) .

alpha

`C_FLOAT`	for `mkl_sparse_s_add`
`C_DOUBLE`	for `mkl_sparse_d_add`
`C_FLOAT_COMPLEX`	for `mkl_sparse_c_add`
`C_DOUBLE_COMPLEX`	for `mkl_sparse_z_add`

Specifies the scalar, \(\alpha\) .

operation

C_INT .

Specifies operation op() on input matrix:

`operation`	Description
`SPARSE_OPERATION_NON_TRANSPOSE`	`\(op(A) = A\)`
`SPARSE_OPERATION_TRANSPOSE`	`\(op(A) = A^{T}\)`
`SPARSE_OPERATION_CONJUGATE_TRANSPOSE`	`\(op(A) = A^{H}\)`

B

SPARSE_MATRIX_T .

Handle which contains the sparse matrix \(B\) .

Output Parameters

C

SPARSE_MATRIX_T .

Handle which contains the resulting sparse matrix.

stat

INTEGER

Value indicating whether the operation was successful, and if not, why:

`SPARSE_STATUS_SUCCESS`	The operation was successful.
`SPARSE_STATUS_NOT_INITIALIZED`	The routine encountered an empty handle or matrix array.
`SPARSE_STATUS_ALLOC_FAILED`	Internal memory allocation failed.
`SPARSE_STATUS_INVALID_VALUE`	The input parameters contain an invalid value.
`SPARSE_STATUS_EXECUTION_FAILED`	Execution failed.
`SPARSE_STATUS_INTERNAL_ERROR`	An error in algorithm implementation occurred.
`SPARSE_STATUS_NOT_SUPPORTED`	The requested operation is not supported.

Return Values

See Output Parameter, stat.
