Detailed Description

       The reference documentation of the librsb library comes in both HTML and Unix man pages formats. The
       following sections/man pages are available: The librsb library interface (rsb.h, rsb.F90) ; The Sparse
       BLAS interface to librsb (blas_sparse.h, rsb_blas_sparse.F90) ; Example programs and code.

       In general, users of this library are interested in high performance sparse matrix computations on cache
       based shared memory parallel computers. For this, librsb offers a native C interface (here documented)
       and a Fortran one (in rsb.F90, equivalent to the C declaration headers from rsb.h), in addition to a the
       Sparse BLAS one (both C and Fortran, documented).

       Configuration, build, and installation instructions are contained in the README file distributed in the
       sources archive.

        Typical program structure

       • initialize librsb with rsb_lib_init()
       • (in  any  order)  allocate  matrices  (e.g.:  with  rsb_mtx_alloc_from_coo_inplace() or others); do any
         computation  with  them  (e.g.:   rsb_spmv(),   rsb_spsv()   );   converting   matrices   (e.g.:   with
         rsb_mtx_switch_to_coo() ); freeing matrices (rsb_mtx_free() )
       • finalize librsb with rsb_lib_exit()
        Important usage notes
        General  program  structure   Before  calling  any  librsb function, a program is required to initialize
       librsb's internal status. This is done by calling rsb_lib_init() . Afterwards, any librsb function can be
       safely used. When  librsb  functions  are  not  intended  to  be  called  anymore,  a  program  may  call
       rsb_lib_exit() to free any resource. Then, rsb_lib_init() should be called for further usage of librsb.
        Manipulating  matrices  and  vectors  In order to use librsb, the user is not required to use explicitly
       any of librsb's data structures: their manipulation is to be performed by  librsb  functions.  Therefore,
       knowledge  of  librsb's matrix type (rsb_mtx_t) is not necessary at all: this structure is intended to be
       used as an opaque container.
       On the contrary, arrays for numerical vectors (or more generally, dense  matrices)  are  expected  to  be
       managed  by  the  user:  librsb  does not furnish any specific vector type. Computational functions treat
       dense vectors/matrices are simple arrays of a specified type; see the Example programs and code .
        Computational functions  This library can be configured at build time to  support  a  custom  subset  of
       numerical  types.  To  keep  the  programming interface compact, it has been decided to not replicate the
       computational functions to each numerical type. Instead, the type is expected to be specified by the user
       via a type flag. For instance, matrix assembly functions (e.g.: rsb_mtx_alloc_from_coo_const() ) accept a
       type information and keep it stored in the matrix structure. Therefore,  computational  functions  (e.g.:
       rsb_spmv()  )  can  fetch  this information from their rsb_mtx_t operand, and treat accordingly the other
       parameters (e.g.: alphap, Xp, ...). Mixed type operations are currently not supported.
        Memory management
       Matrix structures (rsb_mtx_t) allocated by librsb shall be freed only via rsb_mtx_free() .
        Benchmarking
       If you want to benchmark this library, there are different possibilities:
       #!/bin/sh

       # systematic comparative benchmark, mostly for dense matrices
       # (with Intel MKL, if linked) benchmark comparing
       # produces a number of plots systematically
       bench/dense.sh

       # the benchmark command; assumes A.mtx is a file in Matrix Market format
       ./rsbench -oa -Ob -f A.mtx -qH -R -n1 -t100 --verbose -TD --compare-competitors

       # rsbench is very flexible tool; see the help for it:
       ./rsbench -oa -Ob --help

        Tuning and Customization
       There are different ./configure options you may look at for tuning or customizing the library.

Macro Definition Documentation

   #define RSB_SIZEOF(TYPE)   RSB_NUMERICAL_TYPE_SIZE(TYPE)
       Use RSB_SIZEOF macro to get the size (in bytes) of a type supported by the library (e.g.: when allocating
       numerical vectors).

           typecode   A   valid   type   code   for   the   given   (numerical   array)   input   pointer   (see
           matrix_type_symbols_section).
           Yp The output array vector.
           yvl Output vector length.
       Returns:
           RSB_ERR_NO_ERROR  on  correct  operation,  an  error  code otherwise. You can use rsb_strerror_r() or
           rsb_perror() to get more information about the error.
       Note:
           The only dense vector file format currently supported is Matrix Market. E.g.:

   rsb_err_t rsb_lib_exit (struct rsb_initopts * iop)
       Finalize librsb.
       rsb_lib_exit should be called after having freed all matrices.
       If not all of the data structures were properly deallocated  before,  this  function  may  still  attempt
       finalizing  the  library  and  return  the  RSB_ERR_MEMORY_LEAK error code (this depends on the --enable-
       allocator-wrapper configure time option). Any allocated memory will be lost (librsb does not  keep  track
       of allocated matrices).
       Internal  library state will be cleared. After this call, it is legal to initialize the library again, by
       calling rsb_lib_init().
       On an error, the library state may be inconsistent, so  it  is  advisable  to  either  terminate  program
       execution (rather than forcing a new initialization with rsb_lib_init()).
       Parameter iop is reserved for future use; for now it is safe to pass RSB_NULL_EXIT_OPTIONS.
       Parameters:
           iop  A  pointer  to  a  rsb_initopts  structure  with  library  options.  It  may be NULL (or better,
           RSB_NULL_INIT_OPTIONS/RSB_NULL_EXIT_OPTIONS) for specifying default options.
       Returns:
           RSB_ERR_NO_ERROR on correct operation, an error code  otherwise.  You  can  use  rsb_strerror_r()  or
           rsb_perror() to get more information about the error.

   rsb_err_t rsb_lib_init (struct rsb_initopts * iop)
       This is the library initialization function.
       It must be called only once before using any other library function.
       It is allowed to call it again after rsb_lib_exit().
       To fine-tune the library behaviour, one may specify a number of options via the iop parameter.
       Options may be specified also after rsb_lib_init() by calling rsb_lib_reinit().
       One may call RSB_REINIT_SINGLE_VALUE_GET with flag RSB_IO_WANT_IS_INITIALIZED_MARKER  to  verify  whether
       the library has been initialized or not.
       Parameters:
           iop  A  pointer  to  a  rsb_initopts  structure  with  library  options.  It  may be NULL (or better,
           RSB_NULL_INIT_OPTIONS/RSB_NULL_EXIT_OPTIONS) for specifying default options.
       Returns:
           RSB_ERR_NO_ERROR on correct operation, an error code  otherwise.  You  can  use  rsb_strerror_r()  or
           rsb_perror() to get more information about the error.

           RSB_REINIT_SINGLE_VALUE, RSB_REINIT_SINGLE_VALUE_C_IOP..
   rsb_err_t rsb_lib_reinit (struct rsb_initopts * iop)
       Changes the library operation options which were set at initialization  time  either  by  a  user  or  as
       defaults.
       Not all options may be supported, depending on build time library settings.
       If  an  unsupported option was specified, an appropriate error (e.g.: RSB_ERR_UNSUPPORTED_OPERATION) will
       be returned.
       On the first error, option processing  is  interrupted  and  the  remaining  options  (if  any)  are  not
       processed.
       Program  execution  may continue safely even if an error code is returned (that is, library status should
       be consistent).

       Parameters:
           iop A pointer to a  rsb_initopts  structure  with  library  options.  It  may  be  NULL  (or  better,
           RSB_NULL_INIT_OPTIONS/RSB_NULL_EXIT_OPTIONS) for specifying default options.
       Returns:
           RSB_ERR_NO_ERROR  on  correct  operation,  an  error  code otherwise. You can use rsb_strerror_r() or
           rsb_perror() to get more information about the error.

   rsb_err_t rsb_lib_set_opt_str (const rsb_char_t * opnp, const rsb_char_t * opvp)
       Specifies  individual  library  options in order to fine-tune the library behaviour. Both the option name
       and the value shall be expressed as strings, identical to their preprocessor identifiers  (see  rsb_opt_t
       ). The opnp string will be translated internally to the corresponding request flag values, and the passed
       value will be parsed out of the opvp string.

       Parameters:
           opnp A pointer to a library option input name string (may not be NULL).
           opvp A pointer to a library option input value string (may not be NULL).
       Returns:
           RSB_ERR_NO_ERROR  on  correct  operation,  an  error  code otherwise. You can use rsb_strerror_r() or
           rsb_perror() to get more information about the error.

       rsb_nnz_idx_t nrB, rsb_nnz_idx_t ncB, rsb_bool_t rowmajorB, void * Bp)
       Dense matrix B is updated by adding scaled sparse matrix ${A}$ to it: $B \leftarrow B + \alpha {A} $
       Parameters:
           alphap Optional pointer (if NULL, will default to 1) to a  numerical  value  (of  the  same  type  as
           matrix).
           mtxAp Valid rsb_mtx_t pointer to matrix $A$ representation.
           ldB Leading dimension of Bp array.
           nrB,ncB The number of rows and columns for the dense matrix $B$.
           rowmajorB  RSB_BOOL_TRUE if the dense matrix $B$ is considered stored as row major, or RSB_BOOL_FALSE
           if as column major.
           Bp Array representing the dense matrix $B$.
       Returns:
           RSB_ERR_NO_ERROR on correct operation, an error code  otherwise.  You  can  use  rsb_strerror_r()  or
           rsb_perror() to get more information about the error.
       Warning:
           This function has not been thoroughly tested.
       Note:
           Please  note that it suffices to 'transpose' Bp's description parameters to get $A$ transposed summed
           in.

       Given as input COO arrays VA,IA,JA, allocates and assembles an RSB matrix using separate arrays.
       Parameters:
           VA,IA,JA Input numerical values (VA) array; row (IA) and column (JA) input indices arrays.
           nnzA The number of nonzeroes in the input arrays representing matrix $A$.

           reserved for future use).
           flagsA  A  valid combination of index conversion and matrix storage flags and other meaningful flags.
           The encouraged base choice here is RSB_FLAG_DEFAULT_RSB_MATRIX_FLAGS. If Fortran  (1  based)  indices
           are  being  used  for  the  IA, JA arrays, then the RSB_FLAG_FORTRAN_INDICES_INTERFACE flag should be
           added. If symmetric storage is desired, then RSB_FLAG_SYMMETRIC (or RSB_FLAG_HERMITIAN, for Hermitian
           matrices) is necessary, in combination with either RSB_FLAG_LOWER or RSB_FLAG_UPPER. If you intend to
           use this matrix for triangular solution (e.g.: rsb_spsv()/rsb_spsm()), it needs to be triangular  and

           RSB_FLAG_LOWER_SYMMETRIC or RSB_FLAG_LOWER_HERMITIAN. Nonzeroes  non  complying  with  the  specified
           flags  will  be  ignored.  If  RSB_FLAG_UNIT_DIAG_IMPLICIT  is  present, diagonal entries will be not
           represented but assumed to be unitary. If RSB_FLAG_DUPLICATES_SUM is present, duplicate entries  will
           be summed together. If RSB_FLAG_DISCARD_ZEROS is present, zeroes will be discarded.
           errvalp An optional (can be NULL) pointer to rsb_err_t where the error status will be written to.
       Returns:
           On  success,  a  valid pointer (struct rsb_mtx_t*) to the newly allocated matrix structure; on error,
           NULL.

       use  these  arrays  until  the matrix has been destroyed with rsb_mtx_free(). Then, it is possible to use
       these arrays again.
       Parameters:
           VA,IA,JA Input/output numerical values array (VA); row (IA) and column (JA) indices arrays.

           use  this matrix for triangular solution (e.g.: rsb_spsv()/rsb_spsm()), it needs to be triangular and

       Assumes  all  three VA,IA,JA arrays are at least min(nnzA,nrA+1,ncA+1) sized. The user is expected NOT to
       use these arrays until the matrix has been destroyed with rsb_mtx_free(). Then, it  is  possible  to  use
       these arrays again.
       Parameters:
           VA,RP,JA  Input  numerical  values  (VA)  array;  compressed  rows (RP) and column (JA) input indices
           arrays. Will not be freed by rsb_mtx_free().

           nrA,ncA The number of rows and columns of the sparse matrix $A$.
           brA,bcA  Blocking  parameters:  brA should be set to 1 or RSB_DEFAULT_ROW_BLOCKING (currently unused,

           reserved for future use).
           flagsA  A  valid combination of index conversion and matrix storage flags and other meaningful flags.
           The encouraged base choice here is RSB_FLAG_DEFAULT_RSB_MATRIX_FLAGS. If Fortran  (1  based)  indices
           are  being  used  for  the  IA, JA arrays, then the RSB_FLAG_FORTRAN_INDICES_INTERFACE flag should be
           added. If symmetric storage is desired, then RSB_FLAG_SYMMETRIC (or RSB_FLAG_HERMITIAN, for Hermitian

       Note:
           This function is only valid if mtxAp has been assembled in place (that is, in  the  arrays  that  are
           being  reclaimed),  so  with e.g.: rsb_mtx_alloc_from_coo_inplace(). Please also note that the matrix
           will get freed internally and so mtxAp will not be usable in any way afterwards.

           RSB_FLAG_EXTERNALLY_ALLOCATED_ARRAYS are forbidden.
       Returns:
           RSB_ERR_NO_ERROR  on  correct  operation,  an  error  code otherwise. You can use rsb_strerror_r() or

       Warning:
           This  function  is still experimental. In case of error, although the matrix shall be unaffected, the

       ldC)
       An auto-tuner: optimizes either the matrix instance, the thread count or both for the rsb_spsm operation.
       The  tuner  works by evaluating different instances and working threads variants. The instance leading to
       faster operation time will  be  retained  and  given  back  to  the  user  in  *mtxOpp.  If  nrhs==1  and
       order==RSB_FLAG_WANT_COLUMN_MAJOR_ORDER,  unitary  stride  vectors  are  assumed.  In  case of error, the
       original input matrix shall be unaffected. It is possible to specify  the  leading  dimensions  of  Bp,Cp
       implicitly,  with  ldB=0  and  ldC=0:  in  this  case,  their  values  will be computed internally and if
       Bp!=NULL,Cp!=NULL, they will be assumed of being sufficiently sized. Values of nrhs<1 will be treated  as
       1.  Bp,  Cp  can be NULL: temporary vectors will be allocated, used, and deallocated within the tuner. If
       mtxOpp=NULL and *tnp!=NULL the best thread count will be probed for the matrix  given  in  mtxAp.  Please
       note   that   if   threads   only   tuning   is   requested   and   matrix   has   too  few  leaves  (see
       RSB_MIF_LEAVES_COUNT__TO__RSB_BLK_INDEX_T), tuning will  not  work.  If  mtxAp==NULL,  then  the  *mtxOpp
       instance  will  be  used;  however  in  this  case,  if  a better instance is found, the original will be
       destroyed as with rsb_mtx_free(). The case mtxAp!=NULL&&*mtxOpp!=NULL is illegal and will cause an error.
       Parameters:
           mtxOpp Optimal matrix structure pointer will be assigned to *mtxOpp (it may occur that *mtxOpp==mtxAp
           on output). If mtxOpp is NULL then no data structure optimization will  be  attempted;  rather,  only
           optimal threads search will occur (tnp must be not NULL then).
           sfp Achieved speedup factor will be written to *sfp (unless sfp==NULL).
           tnp If tnp==NULL on input, the current thread count will be utilized. Otherwise, if *tnp>0, then *tnp
           will be used as first suggestion in optimal thread count searching. If tnp!=NULL ,on output *tnp will
           be  set  to  contain  the optimal number of threads. Then, the user is expected to set this number of
           threads  using  e.g.:  RSB_REINIT_SINGLE_VALUE_SET(RSB_IO_WANT_EXECUTING_THREADS,tnp,errval).  Please
           note that this will affect the whole library operation, not only this matrix.
           maxr Optimizer rounds max count. If <1, will be treated as 1; if 0 will be decided automatically. Max
           is RSB_CONST_MAX_TUNING_ROUNDS.
           maxt  Maximum time (in seconds) per optimization round (does not take in account conversion time). If
           maxt<0.0 is provided, -ceil(maxt) will be interpreted as number  of  iterations  to  check  for  each
           operation time sample. If maxt==0.0 is provided, a default choice will be made instead.
           transA Transposition parameter for $A$ (see matrix_transposition_flags_section).
           alphap  Optional  pointer  (if  NULL,  will  default  to 1) to a numerical value (of the same type as
           matrix).
           mtxAp Valid rsb_mtx_t pointer to matrix $A$ representation.
           nrhs The number of right hand side vectors (cannot be <1).
           order A flag among RSB_FLAG_WANT_COLUMN_MAJOR_ORDER and RSB_FLAG_WANT_ROW_MAJOR_ORDER. For contiguous
           vector arrays, you probably want RSB_FLAG_WANT_COLUMN_MAJOR_ORDER.
           Bp The input vector array. If NULL, a temporary, internally allocated copy will be used.
           ldB Leading dimension of Bp array.
           betap Optional pointer (if NULL, will default to 1) to a numerical value.
           Cp The output vector array. If NULL, a temporary, internally allocated copy will be used.
           ldC Leading dimension of Cp array.
       Returns:
           RSB_ERR_NO_ERROR on correct operation, an error code  otherwise.  You  can  use  rsb_strerror_r()  or
           rsb_perror() to get more information about the error.
       If --enable-zero-division-checks-on-solve was specified at configure time, attempts to solve a triangular
       matrix with zeroes on a diagonal will fail.
