[petsc-users] Problem with BLASdot in 3.19.4

Dear Petsc users and experts,

 

If someone can direct me how to track this bug, I would really appreciate
it.

 

The Petsc DLL library version 3.19.4 was built on Windows 10 with Visual
Studio 2022, and with Microsoft MPI 10.1.2 and Intel MKL 2020.3.279. The
same code works fine with Petsc 3.18.6 using the same versions of MS MPI and
Intel MKL, and built with Visual Studio 2019.

 

When my code calls PetscCall(KSPSolve(...)), it gets to
PetscCall(KSPGMRESCycle(...)), PetscCall(VecNormalize(VEC_VV(0), &res)),
PetscCall(VecNorm(x, NORM_2, &norm)) and then crashes in VecNorm_Seq() at:

 

                PetscCallBLAS("BLASdot", ztmp[type == NORM_1_AND_2] =
PetscSqrtReal(PetscRealPart(BLASdot_(&bn, xx, &one, xx, &one))));

 

I tried to step into BLASdot_, but was unable to. I assume BLASdot_ belong
to Intel MKL, and its library does not contain debug information. After the
code exits, the errors are shown below the hash line.

 

Should I install the latest Intel MKL to work with Petsc 3.19.4?

 

Many thanks in advance for your help,
