PDLAMVE(3) ScaLAPACK routine of NEC Numeric Library Collection PDLAMVE(3) NAME PDLAMVE - copies all or part of a distributed matrix A to another dis- tributed matrix B SYNOPSIS SUBROUTINE PDLAMVE( UPLO, M, N, A, IA, JA, DESCA, B, IB, JB, DESCB, DWORK ) CHARACTER UPLO INTEGER IA, IB, JA, JB, M, N INTEGER DESCA( * ), DESCB( * ) DOUBLE PRECISION A( * ), B( * ), DWORK( * ) PURPOSE PDLAMVE copies all or part of a distributed matrix A to another dis- tributed matrix B. There is no alignment assumptions at all except that A and B are of the same size. Notes ===== Each global data object is described by an associated description vec- tor. This vector stores the information required to establish the map- ping between an object element and its corresponding process and memory location. Let A be a generic term for any 2D block cyclicly distributed array. Such a global array has an associated description vector DESCA. In the following comments, the character _ should be read as "of the global array". NOTATION STORED IN EXPLANATION --------------- -------------- -------------------------------------- DTYPE_A(global) DESCA( DTYPE_ )The descriptor type. In this case, DTYPE_A = 1. CTXT_A (global) DESCA( CTXT_ ) The BLACS context handle, indicating the BLACS process grid A is distribu- ted over. The context itself is glo- bal, but the handle (the integer value) may vary. M_A (global) DESCA( M_ ) The number of rows in the global array A. N_A (global) DESCA( N_ ) The number of columns in the global array A. MB_A (global) DESCA( MB_ ) The blocking factor used to distribute the rows of the array. NB_A (global) DESCA( NB_ ) The blocking factor used to distribute the columns of the array. RSRC_A (global) DESCA( RSRC_ ) The process row over which the first row of the array A is distributed. CSRC_A (global) DESCA( CSRC_ ) The process column over which the first column of the array A is distributed. LLD_A (local) DESCA( LLD_ ) The leading dimension of the local array. LLD_A >= MAX(1,LOCr(M_A)). Let K be the number of rows or columns of a distributed matrix, and assume that its process grid has dimension p x q. LOCr( K ) denotes the number of elements of K that a process would receive if K were distributed over the p processes of its process col- umn. Similarly, LOCc( K ) denotes the number of elements of K that a process would receive if K were distributed over the q processes of its process row. The values of LOCr() and LOCc() may be determined via a call to the ScaLAPACK tool function, NUMROC: LOCr( M ) = NUMROC( M, MB_A, MYROW, RSRC_A, NPROW ), LOCc( N ) = NUMROC( N, NB_A, MYCOL, CSRC_A, NPCOL ). An upper bound for these quantities may be computed by: LOCr( M ) <= ceil( ceil(M/MB_A)/NPROW )*MB_A LOCc( N ) <= ceil( ceil(N/NB_A)/NPCOL )*NB_A ARGUMENTS UPLO (global input) CHARACTER Specifies the part of the distributed matrix sub( A ) to be copied: = 'U': Upper triangular part is copied; the strictly lower triangular part of sub( A ) is not referenced; = 'L': Lower triangular part is copied; the strictly upper triangular part of sub( A ) is not referenced; Otherwise: All of the matrix sub( A ) is copied. M (global input) INTEGER The number of rows to be operated on i.e the number of rows of the distributed submatrix sub( A ). M >= 0. N (global input) INTEGER The number of columns to be operated on i.e the number of columns of the distributed submatrix sub( A ). N >= 0. A (local input) DOUBLE PRECISION pointer into the local memory to an array of dimension (LLD_A, LOCc(JA+N-1) ). This array contains the local pieces of the distributed matrix sub( A ) to be copied from. IA (global input) INTEGER The row index in the global array A indicating the first row of sub( A ). JA (global input) INTEGER The column index in the global array A indicating the first column of sub( A ). DESCA (global and local input) INTEGER array of dimension DLEN_. The array descriptor for the distributed matrix A. B (local output) DOUBLE PRECISION pointer into the local memory to an array of dimension (LLD_B, LOCc(JB+N-1) ). This array contains on exit the local pieces of the distributed matrix sub( B ). IB (global input) INTEGER The row index in the global array B indicating the first row of sub( B ). JB (global input) INTEGER The column index in the global array B indicating the first column of sub( B ). DESCB (global and local input) INTEGER array of dimension DLEN_. The array descriptor for the distributed matrix B. DWORK (local workspace) DOUBLE PRECISION array If UPLO = 'U' or UPLO = 'L' and number of processors > 1, the length of DWORK is at least as large as the length of B. Otherwise, DWORK is not referenced. ScaLAPACK routine 31 October 2017 PDLAMVE(3)
