Description

The routine forms the Cholesky factorization of a symmetric positive-definite or, for complex data, Hermitian positive-definite matrix A:

A = UT*U for real data, A = UH*U for complex data

if uplo=mkl::uplo::upper

A = L*LT for real data, A = L*LH for complex data

if uplo=mkl::uplo::lower

where L is a lower triangular matrix and U is upper triangular.

Input Parameters

queue

Device queue where calculations will be performed.

uplo

Indicates whether the upper or lower triangular part of A is stored and how A is factored:

If uplo=mkl::uplo::upper, the array a stores the upper triangular part of the matrix A, and the strictly lower triangular part of the matrix is not referenced.

If uplo=mkl::uplo::lower, the array a stores the lower triangular part of the matrix A, and the strictly upper triangular part of the matrix is not referenced.

n

Specifies the order of the matrix A (0≤n).

a

Pointer to input matrix A. The array holding input matrix a contains either the upper or the lower triangular part of the matrix A (see uplo). The second dimension of a must be at least max(1, n).

lda

The leading dimension of a.

scratchpad

Pointer to scratchpad memory to be used by the routine for storing intermediate results.

scratchpad_size

Size of scratchpad memory as a number of floating point elements of type T. Size should not be less than the value returned by the potrf_scratchpad_size function.

events

List of events to wait for before starting computation. Defaults to empty list.

Output Parameters

a

The memory pointed to by pointer a is overwritten by the Cholesky factor U or L, as specified by uplo.

Exceptions

mkl::lapack::exception

This exception is thrown when problems occur during calculations. You can obtain the info code of the problem using the info() method of the exception object: If info = -i, the i-th parameter had an illegal value. If info = i, and detail() returns 0, the leading minor of order i (and therefore the matrix A itself) is not positive-definite, and the factorization could not be completed. This may indicate an error in forming the matrix A. If info is equal to the value passed as scratchpad size, and detail() returns non zero, then the passed scratchpad has an insufficient size, and the required size should not be less than the value returned by the detail() method of the exception object.

Return Values

Output event to wait on to ensure computation is complete.
