Hi Mark,Hong

 

Thanks for the observation w.r.t the proc 0 having 2 equations. This is a
bug from our end. We will fix it and get back to you if needed. 

 

Thanks,

Ravi.

Ravi, can you run with -ksp_view_binary? This will produce two files.

 

Hong, ex10 will read in these files and solve them.  I will probably not be
able to get to this until Monday.

 

Also, this matrix has just two equations on proc 0 and and about 11000 on
proc 1 so its is strangely balanced, in case that helps ...

Ravi,

 

I need more info for debugging. Can you provide a simple stand alone code
and matrices in petsc

binary format that reproduce the error?

 

MatTransposeMatMult() for mpiaij is a newly developed subroutine - less than
one month old 

and not well tested yet :-(

I used petsc-dev/src/mat/examples/tests/ex94.c for testing.

 

Thanks,

 

Hong

It looks like the problem is in MatTransposeMatMult and Hong (cc'ed) is
working on it.

 

I'm hoping that your output will be enough for Hong to figure this out but I
could not reproduce this problem with any of my tests.

 

If Hong can not figure this out then we will need to get the matrix from you
to reproduce this.

Hi Mark,

 

Any luck with the gamg bug fix?

 

Thanks,

Ravi.

This seems to be dying earlier than it was last week, so it looks like a new
bug in MatTransposeMatMult.

Hi Mark,

 

I downloaded the dev version again. This time, the program crashes even
earlier. Attached is the serial and parallel info outputs.

 

Could you kindly take a look.

 

It looks like this is a problem with MatMatMult(). Can you try to reproduce
this using KSP ex10? You put

your matrix in binary format and use -pc_type gamg. Then you can send us the
matrix and we can track

it down. Or are you running an example there?

 

  Thanks,

 

    Matt

 

 

 

Thanks,

Ravi.

Yes its all checked it, just pull from dev.

Hi Mark,

 

Thanks for your efforts.

 

Do I need to do the install from scratch once again? Or some particular
files (check out gamg.c for instance)?

 

Thanks,

Ravi.

I think I found the problem.  You will need to use petsc-dev to get the fix.

Ravi, I forgot but you can just use -ksp_view_binary to output the matrix
data (two files).  You could run it with two procs and a Jacobi solver to
get it past the solve, where it writes the matrix (I believe).

I have attached the verbose+info outputs for both the serial and the
parallel (2 partitions). NOTE: the serial output at some location says
PC=Jacobi! Is it implicitly converting the PC to a Jacobi?

 

Looks like you forgot the attachment.
