NAME
       ZPTRFS

SYNOPSIS
       SUBROUTINE ZPTRFS (UPLO, N, NRHS, D, E, DF, EF, B, LDB, X, LDX, FERR,
           BERR, WORK, RWORK, INFO)



PURPOSE
            ZPTRFS improves the computed solution to a system of linear
            equations when the coefficient matrix is Hermitian positive definite
            and tridiagonal, and provides error bounds and backward error
            estimates for the solution.




ARGUMENTS
           UPLO      (input)
                     UPLO is CHARACTER*1
                     Specifies whether the superdiagonal or the subdiagonal of the
                     tridiagonal matrix A is stored and the form of the
                     factorization:
                     = 'U':  E is the superdiagonal of A, and A = U**H*D*U;
                     = 'L':  E is the subdiagonal of A, and A = L*D*L**H.
                     (The two forms are equivalent if A is real.)

                     On entry, the solution matrix X, as computed by ZPTTRS.

                     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).

                     vector X(j) (i.e., the smallest relative change in
                     any element of A or B that makes X(j) an exact solution).

                     < 0:  if INFO = -i, the i-th argument had an illegal value
