PSLASWP(3) ScaLAPACK routine of NEC Numeric Library Collection PSLASWP(3) NAME PSLASWP - perform a series of row or column interchanges on the dis- tributed matrix sub( A ) = A(IA:IA+M-1,JA:JA+N-1) SYNOPSIS SUBROUTINE PSLASWP( DIREC, ROWCOL, N, A, IA, JA, DESCA, K1, K2, IPIV ) CHARACTER DIREC, ROWCOL INTEGER IA, JA, K1, K2, N INTEGER DESCA( * ), IPIV( * ) REAL A( * ) PURPOSE PSLASWP performs a series of row or column interchanges on the dis- tributed matrix sub( A ) = A(IA:IA+M-1,JA:JA+N-1). One interchange is initiated for each of rows or columns K1 trough K2 of sub( A ). This routine assumes that the pivoting information has already been broad- cast along the process row or column. Also note that this routine will only work for K1-K2 being in the same MB (or NB) block. If you want to pivot a full matrix, use PSLAPIV. 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 DIREC (global input) CHARACTER Specifies in which order the permutation is applied: = 'F' (Forward) = 'B' (Backward) ROWCOL (global input) CHARACTER Specifies if the rows or columns are permuted: = 'R' (Rows) = 'C' (Columns) N (global input) INTEGER If ROWCOL = 'R', the length of the rows of the distributed matrix A(*,JA:JA+N-1) to be permuted; If ROWCOL = 'C', the length of the columns of the distributed matrix A(IA:IA+N-1,*) to be permuted. A (local input/local output) REAL pointer into the local memory to an array of dimension (LLD_A, * ). On entry, this array contains the local pieces of the distri- buted matrix to which the row/columns interchanges will be applied. On exit the permuted distributed matrix. 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. K1 (global input) INTEGER The first element of IPIV for which a row or column inter- change will be done. K2 (global input) INTEGER The last element of IPIV for which a row or column inter- change will be done. IPIV (local input) INTEGER array, dimension LOCr(M_A)+MB_A for row pivoting and LOCc(N_A)+NB_A for column pivoting. This array is tied to the matrix A, IPIV(K) = L implies rows (or columns) K and L are to be interchanged. ScaLAPACK routine 31 October 2017 PSLASWP(3)
