PCApplyBAorAB#

Applies the preconditioner and operator to a vector. y = BAx or y = ABx.

Synopsis#

#include "petscksp.h" 
PetscErrorCode PCApplyBAorAB(PC pc, PCSide side, Vec x, Vec y, Vec work)

Collective

Input Parameters#

  • pc - the preconditioner context

  • side - indicates the preconditioner side, one of PC_LEFT, PC_RIGHT, or PC_SYMMETRIC

  • x - input vector

  • work - work vector

Output Parameter#

  • y - output vector

Note#

If the PC has had PCSetDiagonalScale() set then D M A D^{-1} for left preconditioning or D A M D^{-1} is actually applied. Note that the specific KSPSolve() method must also be written to handle the post-solve “correction” for the diagonal scaling.
