NAME
       SSPRFS

SYNOPSIS
       SUBROUTINE SSPRFS (UPLO, N, NRHS, AP, AFP, IPIV, B, LDB, X, LDX, FERR,
           BERR, WORK, IWORK, INFO)



PURPOSE
            SSPRFS improves the computed solution to a system of linear
            equations when the coefficient matrix is symmetric indefinite
            and packed, and provides error bounds and backward error estimates
            for the solution.




ARGUMENTS
           UPLO      (input)
                     UPLO is CHARACTER*1
                     = 'U':  Upper triangle of A is stored;
                     = 'L':  Lower triangle of A is stored.

           N         (input)
                     N is INTEGER
                     The order of the matrix A.  N >= 0.

           NRHS      (input)
                     NRHS is INTEGER
                     The number of right hand sides, i.e., the number of columns
                     of the matrices B and X.  NRHS >= 0.

           AP        (input)
                     AP is REAL array, dimension (N*(N+1)/2)
                     The upper or lower triangle of the symmetric matrix A, packed
                     columnwise in a linear array.  The j-th column of A is stored
                     in the array AP as follows:
                     if UPLO = 'U', AP(i + (j-1)*j/2) = A(i,j) for 1<=i<=j;
                     if UPLO = 'L', AP(i + (j-1)*(2*n-j)/2) = A(i,j) for j<=i<=n.

           AFP       (input)
                     AFP is REAL array, dimension (N*(N+1)/2)
                     The factored form of the matrix A.  AFP contains the block
                     diagonal matrix D and the multipliers used to obtain the
                     factor U or L from the factorization A = U*D*U**T or
                     A = L*D*L**T as computed by SSPTRF, stored as a packed
                     triangular matrix.

           IPIV      (input)
                     IPIV is INTEGER array, dimension (N)
                     Details of the interchanges and the block structure of D
                     as determined by SSPTRF.

           B         (input)
                     B is REAL array, dimension (LDB,NRHS)
                     The right hand side matrix B.

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

           X         (input/output)
                     X is REAL array, dimension (LDX,NRHS)
                     On entry, the solution matrix X, as computed by SSPTRS.
                     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 REAL array, dimension (3*N)

           IWORK     (output)
                     IWORK is INTEGER 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.
