String with the name of a PETSc factorization-based matrix solver type.

Synopsis

typedef const char *MatSolverType;
#define MATSOLVERSUPERLU      "superlu"
#define MATSOLVERSUPERLU_DIST "superlu_dist"
#define MATSOLVERSTRUMPACK    "strumpack"
#define MATSOLVERUMFPACK      "umfpack"
#define MATSOLVERCHOLMOD      "cholmod"
#define MATSOLVERKLU          "klu"
#define MATSOLVERELEMENTAL    "elemental"
#define MATSOLVERSCALAPACK    "scalapack"
#define MATSOLVERESSL         "essl"
#define MATSOLVERLUSOL        "lusol"
#define MATSOLVERMUMPS        "mumps"
#define MATSOLVERMKL_PARDISO  "mkl_pardiso"
#define MATSOLVERMKL_CPARDISO "mkl_cpardiso"
#define MATSOLVERPASTIX       "pastix"
#define MATSOLVERMATLAB       "matlab"
#define MATSOLVERPETSC        "petsc"
#define MATSOLVERBAS          "bas"
#define MATSOLVERCUSPARSE     "cusparse"
#define MATSOLVERCUDA         "cuda"
#define MATSOLVERHIPSPARSE    "hipsparse"
#define MATSOLVERHIP          "hip"
#define MATSOLVERKOKKOS       "kokkos"
#define MATSOLVERSPQR         "spqr"

For example: “petsc” indicates what PETSc provides, “superlu_dist” the parallel SuperLU_DIST package etc

Note

MATSOLVERUMFPACK, MATSOLVERCHOLMOD, MATSOLVERKLU, MATSOLVERSPQR form the SuiteSparse package; you can use --download-suitesparse as a ./configure option to install them
