I want to play around with some special type of a Schur complement preconditioner. It perfectly fits into PETSc's fieldsplit preconditioner (schur - full factorization). But for the inner solvers, I would like to create some MatShells. So I need to access both KSP objects, for the upper block (KSP(A_00)) and for the Schur complement (KSP(S)). How can I get these objects in my source code?<br>
