[petsc-users] Customizeing MatSetValuesBlocked(...)

[Jinquan Zhong]

What I am trying to say is that

·         allocated 1D array A in PETSc

·         passed 1D A into ScaLAPACK

·         obtained the indices of A^-1 computed from ScaLAPACK and stored them in a 1D array

·         indexed A^-1 as a 1D array in PETSc using the indices obtained from ScaLAPACK

·         constructed a sparse matrix, including A^-1 and others, using a new set of indices for A^-1.
I can have  the last step done in using

                       ierr = MatCreate(PETSC_COMM_WORLD,&A);CHKERRQ(ierr);
                       ierr = MatSetSizes(A,PETSC_DECIDE,PETSC_DECIDE,N,N);CHKERRQ(ierr);
                       ierr = MatSetFromOptions(A);CHKERRQ(ierr);
                       ierr = MatSetUp(A);CHKERRQ(ierr);

  ierr = MatSetValues(A,1,&Ii,1,&J,&v,INSERT_VALUES);CHKERRQ(ierr);

It just took too long.  This is the performance issue I am having.

To improve the performance, it is necessary for preallocation.  The dilemma is: MatCreateAIJ and MatXCreateAIJ complained the setting of d_nz, d_nnz,o_nz, o_nnz  since there are no diagonal and off-diagonal parts defined in A^-1.

What are you trying to say?
