[petsc-users] loosing preallocation information

Looks like a memory error. Best bet is to run in Valgrind.

 Hi Jed,

It's getting even stranger.

When I run this code under linux I've got error:

Then I traced it under debugger both on Windows and Linux and realized that
it doesn't crash under Windows only by luck.

The call stack if the folowing:
[C] MatSeqAIJSetPreallocation_SeqAIJ, FP=7fffb4513880
[C] MatCreateSeqAIJ,     FP=7fffb4513900
[C] matcreateseqaij_,    FP=7fffb4513960
[F90] MODELING_MOD`modeling, FP=7fffb4517740

As far as I understand after debugging the problem is that nnz in
MatSeqAIJSetPreallocation isn't 0 and I go through this code:
   if (nnz) {
     for (i=0; i<B->rmap->n; i++) {
       if (nnz[i] < 0) SETERRQ2(PETSC_ERR_ARG_OUTOFRANGE,"nnz cannot be less
than 0: local row %d value %d",i,nnz[i]);
       if (nnz[i] > B->cmap->n) SETERRQ3(PETSC_ERR_ARG_OUTOFRANGE,"nnz
cannot be greater than row length: local row %d value %d rowlength
%d",i,nnz[i],B->cmap->n);
     }
   }

But why is nnz nonzero? I passed PETSC_NULL. It seems like macros
CHKFORTRANNULLINTEGER  in matcreateseqaij_ should set it to zero, but it
doesn't.


Thanks.
