Description
The
mkl_sparse_?_trsv
 routine solves a system of linear equations for a matrix: 
op(A)*y = alpha * x
where
A
 is a triangular sparse matrix ,
op
 is a matrix modifier for matrix
A
,
alpha
 is a scalar, and
x
 and
y
 are vectors .
For sparse matrices in the BSR format, the supported combinations of (
indexing
,
block_layout
) are:
  • (
    SPARSE_INDEX_BASE_ZERO
    ,
    SPARSE_LAYOUT_ROW_MAJOR
    )
  • (
    SPARSE_INDEX_BASE_ONE
    ,
    SPARSE_LAYOUT_COLUMN_MAJOR
    )
Input Parameters
operation
Specifies operation
op()
 on input matrix.
SPARSE_OPERATION_NON_TRANSPOSE
Non-transpose,
op(
A
) =
A
.
SPARSE_OPERATION_TRANSPOSE
Transpose,
op(
A
) =
A
T
.
SPARSE_OPERATION_CONJUGATE_TRANSPOSE
Conjugate transpose,
op(
A
) =
A
H
.
alpha
Specifies the scalar
alpha
.
A
Handle which contains the input matrix
A
.
descr
Structure
 specifying sparse matrix properties.
sparse_matrix_type_t
type
 - Specifies the type of a sparse matrix:
SPARSE_MATRIX_TYPE_GENERAL
The matrix is processed as is.
SPARSE_MATRIX_TYPE_SYMMETRIC
The matrix is symmetric (only the requested triangle is processed).
SPARSE_MATRIX_TYPE_HERMITIAN
The matrix is Hermitian (only the requested triangle is processed).
SPARSE_MATRIX_TYPE_TRIANGULAR
The matrix is triangular (only the requested triangle is processed).
SPARSE_MATRIX_TYPE_DIAGONAL
The matrix is diagonal (only diagonal elements are processed).
SPARSE_MATRIX_TYPE_BLOCK_TRIANGULAR
The matrix is block-triangular (only requested triangle is processed). Applies to BSR format only.
SPARSE_MATRIX_TYPE_BLOCK_DIAGONAL
The matrix is block-diagonal (only diagonal blocks are processed). Applies to BSR format only.
sparse_fill_mode_t
mode
 - Specifies the triangular matrix part for symmetric, Hermitian, triangular, and block-triangular matrices:
SPARSE_FILL_MODE_LOWER
The lower triangular matrix part is processed.
SPARSE_FILL_MODE_UPPER
The upper triangular matrix part is processed.
sparse_diag_type_t
diag
 - Specifies diagonal type for non-general matrices:
SPARSE_DIAG_NON_UNIT
Diagonal elements might not be equal to one.
SPARSE_DIAG_UNIT
Diagonal elements are equal to one.
x
Array of size at least
m
, where
m
 is the number of rows of matrix
A
. On entry, the array must contain the vector
x
.
Output Parameters
y
Array of size at least
m
 containing the solution to the system of linear equations.
Return Values
The function returns a value indicating whether the operation was successful or not, and 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.
