| This README File is for the LAPACK driver variants.
 | |
| It is composed of 5 sections:
 | |
| 	- Description: contents a quick description of each of the variants. For a more detailed description please refer to LAWN XXX.
 | |
| 	- Build
 | |
| 	- Testing
 | |
| 	- Linking your program

| ===============

| 
 | |
| This directory contains several variants of LAPACK routines in single/double/complex/double complex precision:
 | |
| 	- [sdcz]getrf with LU Crout Level 3 BLAS version algorithm [2]- Directory: SRC/VARIANTS/lu/CR
 | |
| 	- [sdcz]getrf with LU Left Looking Level 3 BLAS version algorithm [2]- Directory: SRC/VARIANTS/lu/LL
 | |
| 	- [sdcz]getrf with Sivan Toledo's recursive LU algorithm [1] - Directory: SRC/VARIANTS/lu/REC
 | |
| 	- [sdcz]geqrf with QR Left Looking Level 3 BLAS version algorithm [2]- Directory: SRC/VARIANTS/qr/LL
 | |
| 	- [sdcz]potrf with Cholesky Right Looking Level 3 BLAS version algorithm [2]- Directory: SRC/VARIANTS/cholesky/RL
 | |
| 	- [sdcz]potrf with Cholesky Top Level 3 BLAS version algorithm [2]- Directory: SRC/VARIANTS/cholesky/TOP

| =========
 | |
| = BUILD =
 | |
| =========
 | |
| 
 | |
| These variants are compiled by default in the build process but they are not tested by default.
 | |
| The build process creates one new library per variants in the four arithmetic (single real/double real/single complex/double complex).
 | |
| The libraries are in the SRC/VARIANTS directory.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Corresponding libraries created in SRC/VARIANTS:
 | |
| 	- LU Crout : lucr.a
 | |
| 	- LU Left Looking : lull.a
 | |
| 	- LU Sivan Toledo's recursive : lurec.a
 | |
| 	- QR Left Looking : qrll.a
 | |
| 	- Cholesky Right Looking : cholrl.a
 | |
| 	- Cholesky Top : choltop.a
 | |
| 
 | |
| 
 | |
| ===========
 | |
| = TESTING =
 | |
| ===========
 | |
| 
 | |
| To test these variants you can type 'make variants-testing'
 | |
| This will rerun the linear methods testings once per variants and append the short name of the variants to the output files.
 | |
| You should then see the following files in the TESTING directory:
 | |
| [scdz]test_cholrl.out
 | |
| [scdz]test_choltop.out
 | |
| [scdz]test_lucr.out
 | |
| [scdz]test_lull.out
 | |
| [scdz]test_lurec.out
 | |
| [scdz]test_qrll.out
 | |
| 
 | |
| ========================
 | |
| = LINKING YOUR PROGRAM =
 | |
| ========================
 | |
| 
 | |
| You just need to add the variants methods library in your linking sequence before your lapack library.
 | |
| Here is a quick example for LU
 | |
| 
 | |
| Default using LU Right Looking version:
 | |
|  $(FC) $(FFLAGS) -c myprog.f
 | |
|  $(FC) $(FFLAGS) $(LDFLAGS) -o myexe myprog.o $(LAPACKLIB) $(BLASLIB)
 | |
| 
 | |
| Using LU Left Looking version:
 | |
|  $(FC) $(FFLAGS) -c myprog.f
 | |
|  $(FC) $(FFLAGS) $(LDFLAGS) -o myexe myprog.o $(PATH TO LAPACK/SRC/VARIANTS)/lull.a $(LAPACKLIB) $(BLASLIB)
