Input Parameters

operation

Specifies operation op() on input matrix.

SPARSE_OPERATION_NON_TRANSPOSE

Non-transpose, op(A) = A.

SPARSE_OPERATION_TRANSPOSE

Transpose, op(A) = AT.

SPARSE_OPERATION_CONJUGATE_TRANSPOSE

Conjugate transpose, op(A) = AH.

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.
layout

Specifies layout of elements:

SPARSE_LAYOUT_COLUMN_MAJOR

Storage of elements uses column major layout.

SPARSE_LAYOUT_ROW_MAJOR

Storage of elements uses row major layout.

dense_matrix_size

Number of columns in dense matrix.

expected_calls

Number of expected calls to execution routine.

Output Parameters

A

Handle containing internal data.

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.
