I'm getting the following error and i'm not sure why.
{ 1, 1}: On entry to PDPOTRF parameter number 2 had an illegal value
{ 1, 0}: On entry to PDPOTRF parameter number 2 had an illegal value
{ 0, 1}: On entry to PDPOTRF parameter number 2 had an illegal value
{ 0, 0}: On entry to PDPOTRF parameter number 2 had an illegal value
info < 0: If the i-th argument is an array and the j-entry had an illegal value, then INFO = -(i*100+j), if the i-th argument is a scalar and had an illegal value, then INFO = -i.
I Know what the error messages means but I followed the dated documentation available on the web as best as possible and tried to piece together a parallel cholesky factorization from working example codes on the web. I'm not sure where I went wrong.
Could some one explain where I went wrong in the code below? Here's an overview of what the code does, I'm testing with 4 processors and divide the 8x8 matrix into 2 x 2 processor block grid loads a matrix from file, heres an example 8 x 8 matrixfile ,

I followed examples to distribute the Matrix to 4 separate 4x4 local arrays one on each of the 4 nodes. I then run descinit_
and call the associated pdpotrf_
routine which yields the above error. I have no idea where i went wrong and tried to follow documentation as best as I could. A working example of a parallel cholesky decomposition in fortran would also greatly help

Right - I solved this. Here's what you have to do (I checked the result of the modified MPI program against a Cholesky decomp of your matrix in Octave -- it works.).
I found the following LAPACK reference by IBM to be more helpful than the one in your link: http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/clresctr/vxrx/index.jsp?topic=%2Fcom.ibm.cluster.pessl.v4r2.pssl100.doc%2Fam6gr_lpotrf.htm
PDPOTRF( UPLO, N, A, IA, JA, DESCA, INFO )
You are passing Mb
and Nb
as IA
and JA
. However, those parameters are meant to provide the starting row and column of your global matrix inside a larger matrix. They are only relevant if you have a big matrix and only want the Cholesky decomp of a submatrix. In your case, IA
and JA
both have to be 1
!
So all you need to do is:
int IA = 1;
int JA = 1;
pdpotrf_("L",&ord,A_loc,&IA,&JA,descA,&info);
You may also want to change your hardcoded int ord = 8;
so that it depends on the value read from the command line, otherwise you'll run into problems later.
Output of your program modified as described above:
