                     AF is COMPLEX array, dimension (LDAF,N)
                     The factors L and U from the factorization A = P*L*U
                     as computed by CGETRF.

           LDAF      (input)

                     IPIV is INTEGER array, dimension (N)
                     The pivot indices from CGETRF; for 1<=i<=N, row i of the
                     matrix was interchanged with row IPIV(i).

           B         (input)

                     The leading dimension of the array B.  LDB >= max(1,N).

                     On entry, the solution matrix X, as computed by CGETRS.
                     On exit, the improved solution matrix X.

           LDX       (input)
                     LDX is INTEGER
                     The leading dimension of the array X.  LDX >= max(1,N).

           FERR      (output)
                     FERR is REAL array, dimension (NRHS)
                     The estimated forward error bound for each solution vector
                     X(j) (the j-th column of the solution matrix X).
                     If XTRUE is the true solution corresponding to X(j), FERR(j)
                     is an estimated upper bound for the magnitude of the largest
                     element in (X(j) - XTRUE) divided by the magnitude of the
                     largest element in X(j).  The estimate is as reliable as
                     the estimate for RCOND, and is almost always a slight
                     overestimate of the true error.

           BERR      (output)
                     BERR is REAL array, dimension (NRHS)
                     The componentwise relative backward error of each solution
                     vector X(j) (i.e., the smallest relative change in
                     any element of A or B that makes X(j) an exact solution).

           WORK      (output)
                     WORK is COMPLEX array, dimension (2*N)

           RWORK     (output)
                     RWORK is REAL array, dimension (N)

           INFO      (output)
                     INFO is INTEGER
                     = 0:  successful exit
                     < 0:  if INFO = -i, the i-th argument had an illegal value



       Internal Parameters:


             ITMAX is the maximum number of steps of iterative refinement.
