In frame 5, there is call to function
 PetscErrorCode  KSPInitialResidual(KSP ksp,Vec vsoln,Vec vt1,Vec vt2,Vec
vres,Vec vb)

which calls the matrix-vector function in frame 4, i.e,
ierr = KSP_MatMult(ksp,Amat,vsoln,vt1);CHKERRQ(ierr);

Now the error comes in frame 4, where there is call to
VecValidValues(y,3,PETSC_FALSE); y being vt1, a temporary left Vec to hold
value
of user-defined matrix vector product.

I have passed a user-defined function to tell MatShell how to create
left/right Vec(s);
where I also set left/right->ops->getarray = PETSC_NULL. If vt1 was created
using
this routine, there would not have been any error related to
 VecGetArrayRead routine
and should have printed some tracer printf statements. So my guess is that
this temporary
vector is created by directly calling VecDuplicate routine which sets
 vec->ops->getarray = VecGetArray_Nest by default.
