</span> This requires a communication. I am confused, is the number of IS changing each time? If not why is the flag set?</blockquote><div><br></div><div>ASM sets this flag because it knows that IT is going to call MatGetSubMatrices() later, but it unsafe if any user calls</div><div>MatGetSubMatrices() as well.
