I guess your matrix is symmetric in pattern?
Because otherwise, I don’t think this should work.
But if it’s OK for your use case, I could simply add a PetscCheck() that the input Mat is symmetric and then get this integrated (better to have something partially working than nothing at all, I guess).
Please let me know.

Thanks,
Pierre
