MATSOLVERMUMPS

A matrix type providing direct solvers (LU and Cholesky) for distributed and sequential matrices via the external package MUMPS. Works with MATAIJ and MATSBAIJ matrices

Use ./configure --download-mumps --download-scalapack --download-parmetis --download-metis --download-ptscotch to have PETSc installed with MUMPS

Use -pc_type cholesky or lu -pc_factor_mat_solver_package mumps to us this direct solver

Options Database Keys

-mat_mumps_icntl_24 - ICNTL(24): detection of null pivot rows (0 or 1)
-mat_mumps_icntl_25 - ICNTL(25): compute a solution of a deficient matrix and a null space basis
-mat_mumps_icntl_26 - ICNTL(26): drives the solution phase if a Schur complement matrix
-mat_mumps_icntl_28 - ICNTL(28): use 1 for sequential analysis and ictnl(7) ordering, or 2 for parallel analysis and ictnl(29) ordering
-mat_mumps_icntl_29 - ICNTL(29): parallel ordering 1 = ptscotch, 2 = parmetis
-mat_mumps_icntl_30 - ICNTL(30): compute user-specified set of entries in inv(A)
-mat_mumps_icntl_31 - ICNTL(31): indicates which factors may be discarded during factorization
-mat_mumps_icntl_33 - ICNTL(33): compute determinant
-mat_mumps_cntl_1 - CNTL(1): relative pivoting threshold
-mat_mumps_cntl_2 - CNTL(2): stopping criterion of refinement
-mat_mumps_cntl_3 - CNTL(3): absolute pivoting threshold
-mat_mumps_cntl_4 - CNTL(4): value for static pivoting
-mat_mumps_cntl_5 - CNTL(5): fixation for null pivots

Notes: When a MUMPS factorization fails inside a KSP solve, for example with a KSP_DIVERGED_PCSETUP_FAILED, one can find the MUMPS information about the failure by calling

         KSPGetPC(ksp,&pc);
         PCFactorGetMatrix(pc,&mat);
         MatMumpsGetInfo(mat,....);
         MatMumpsGetInfog(mat,....); etc.
Or you can run with -ksp_error_if_not_converged and the program will be stopped and the information printed in the error message.
