[petsc-dev] Infinite loop in A*B

[Zhang, Hong]

I can reproduce the hang with
mpiexec -n 2 ./matmatmult

It seems in an infinite loop of calling MatDensePlaceArray() from

#0  MatDensePlaceArray (mat=0xda5c50, array=0xd15e60)

I'll try to figure out what is going on. If anyone has a clue, please help. The above stack comes from 'release' branch.

Subject: [petsc-dev] Infinite loop in A*B

Hello,
The following MWE loops indefinitely for MPI_Comm_size in {2; 3}.
Nothing fancy, just MatAIJ and MatDense.
The problem is either in MatMPIDenseScatter() or MatMatMultSymbolic_MPIAIJ_MPIDense(), I believe, so if someone familiar with those routines can figure out a hot fix, I’m all ears.
I could of course switch to a MatMult(), but the same infinite loop happens in another more complex code with
A = rows=8, cols=35212
B = rows=35212, cols=9
So I’ll need a fix eventually.

Thanks,
Pierre
