1. Introduction
- The cuSolver API on a single GPU
- The cuSolverMG API on a single node multiGPU
The intent of cuSolver is to provide useful LAPACK-like features, such as common matrix factorization and triangular solve routines for dense matrices, a sparse least-squares solver and an eigenvalue solver. In addition cuSolver provides a new refactorization library useful for solving sequences of matrices with a shared sparsity pattern.
cuSolver combines three separate components under a single umbrella. The first part of cuSolver is called cuSolverDN, and deals with dense matrix factorization and solve routines such as LU, QR, SVD and LDLT, as well as useful utilities such as matrix and vector permutations.
Next, cuSolverSP provides a new set of sparse routines based on a sparse QR factorization. Not all matrices have a good sparsity pattern for parallelism in factorization, so the cuSolverSP library also provides a CPU path to handle those sequential-like matrices. For those matrices with abundant parallelism, the GPU path will deliver higher performance. The library is designed to be called from C and C++.
The final part is cuSolverRF, a sparse re-factorization package that can provide very good performance when solving a sequence of matrices where only the coefficients are changed but the sparsity pattern remains the same.
The GPU path of the cuSolver library assumes data is already in the device memory. It is the responsibility of the developer to allocate memory and to copy data between GPU memory and CPU memory using standard CUDA runtime API routines, such as cudaMalloc(), cudaFree(), cudaMemcpy(), and cudaMemcpyAsync().
cuSolverMg is GPU-accelerated ScaLAPACK. By now, cuSolverMg supports 1-D column block cyclic layout and provides symmetric eigenvalue solver.
cuSolverDN: Dense LAPACK
The cuSolverDN library was designed to solve dense linear systems of the form
where the coefficient matrix , right-hand-side vector and solution vector
The cuSolverDN library provides QR factorization and LU with partial pivoting to handle a general matrix A, which may be non-symmetric. Cholesky factorization is also provided for symmetric/Hermitian matrices. For symmetric indefinite matrices, we provide Bunch-Kaufman (LDL) factorization.
The cuSolverDN library also provides a helpful bidiagonalization routine and singular value decomposition (SVD).
The cuSolverDN library targets computationally-intensive and popular routines in LAPACK, and provides an API compatible with LAPACK. The user can accelerate these time-consuming routines with cuSolverDN and keep others in LAPACK without a major change to existing code.
cuSolverSP: Sparse LAPACK
The cuSolverSP library was mainly designed to a solve sparse linear system
and the least-squares problem
where sparse matrix , right-hand-side vector and solution vector . For a linear system, we require m=n.
The core algorithm is based on sparse QR factorization. The matrix A is accepted in CSR format. If matrix A is symmetric/Hermitian, the user has to provide a full matrix, ie fill missing lower or upper part.
If matrix A is symmetric positive definite and the user only needs to solve , Cholesky factorization can work and the user only needs to provide the lower triangular part of A.
On top of the linear and least-squares solvers, the cuSolverSP library provides a simple eigenvalue solver based on shift-inverse power method, and a function to count the number of eigenvalues contained in a box in the complex plane.
cuSolverRF: Refactorization
The cuSolverRF library was designed to accelerate solution of sets of linear systems by fast re-factorization when given new coefficients in the same sparsity pattern
where a sequence of coefficient matrices , right-hand-sides and solutions are given for i=1,...,k.
The cuSolverRF library is applicable when the sparsity pattern of the coefficient matrices as well as the reordering to minimize fill-in and the pivoting used during the LU factorization remain the same across these linear systems. In that case, the first linear system (i=1) requires a full LU factorization, while the subsequent linear systems (i=2,...,k) require only the LU re-factorization. The later can be performed using the cuSolverRF library.
Notice that because the sparsity pattern of the coefficient matrices, the reordering and pivoting remain the same, the sparsity pattern of the resulting triangular factors and also remains the same. Therefore, the real difference between the full LU factorization and LU re-factorization is that the required memory is known ahead of time.
1.4. Naming Conventions
The cuSolverDN library functions are available for data types float, double, cuComplex, and cuDoubleComplex. The naming convention is as follows:
cusolverDn<t><operation> |
where <t> can be S, D, C, Z, or X, corresponding to the data types float, double, cuComplex, cuDoubleComplex, and the generic type, respectively. <operation> can be Cholesky factorization (potrf), LU with partial pivoting (getrf), QR factorization (geqrf) and Bunch-Kaufman factorization (sytrf).
The cuSolverSP library functions are available for data types float, double, cuComplex, and cuDoubleComplex. The naming convention is as follows:
cusolverSp[Host]<t>[<matrix data format>]<operation>[<output matrix data format>]<based on> |
where cuSolverSp is the GPU path and cusolverSpHost is the corresponding CPU path. <t> can be S, D, C, Z, or X, corresponding to the data types float, double, cuComplex, cuDoubleComplex, and the generic type, respectively.
The <matrix data format> is csr, compressed sparse row format.
The <operation> can be ls, lsq, eig, eigs, corresponding to linear solver, least-square solver, eigenvalue solver and number of eigenvalues in a box, respectively.
The <output matrix data format> can be v or m, corresponding to a vector or a matrix.
<based on> describes which algorithm is used. For example, qr (sparse QR factorization) is used in linear solver and least-square solver.
All of the functions have the return type cusolverStatus_t and are explained in more detail in the chapters that follow.
routine | data format | operation | output format | based on |
csrlsvlu | csr | linear solver (ls) | vector (v) | LU (lu) with partial pivoting |
csrlsvqr | csr | linear solver (ls) | vector (v) | QR factorization (qr) |
csrlsvchol | csr | linear solver (ls) | vector (v) | Cholesky factorization (chol) |
csrlsqvqr | csr | least-square solver (lsq) | vector (v) | QR factorization (qr) |
csreigvsi | csr | eigenvalue solver (eig) | vector (v) | shift-inverse |
csreigs | csr | number of eigenvalues in a box (eigs) | ||
csrsymrcm | csr | Symmetric Reverse Cuthill-McKee (symrcm) |
The cuSolverRF library routines are available for data type double. Most of the routines follow the naming convention:
cusolverRf_<operation>_[[Host]](...) |
where the trailing optional Host qualifier indicates the data is accessed on the host versus on the device, which is the default. The <operation> can be Setup, Analyze, Refactor, Solve, ResetValues, AccessBundledFactors and ExtractSplitFactors.
Finally, the return type of the cuSolverRF library routines is cusolverStatus_t.
1.5. Asynchronous Execution
The cuSolver library functions prefer to keep asynchronous execution as much as possible. Developers can always use the cudaDeviceSynchronize() function to ensure that the execution of a particular cuSolver library routine has completed.
A developer can also use the cudaMemcpy() routine to copy data from the device to the host and vice versa, using the cudaMemcpyDeviceToHost and cudaMemcpyHostToDevice parameters, respectively. In this case there is no need to add a call to cudaDeviceSynchronize() because the call to cudaMemcpy() with the above parameters is blocking and completes only when the results are ready on the host.
1.6. Library Property
The libraryPropertyType data type is an enumeration of library property types. (ie. CUDA version X.Y.Z would yield MAJOR_VERSION=X, MINOR_VERSION=Y, PATCH_LEVEL=Z)
typedef enum libraryPropertyType_t { MAJOR_VERSION, MINOR_VERSION, PATCH_LEVEL } libraryPropertyType;
The following code can show the version of cusolver library.
int major=-1,minor=-1,patch=-1; cusolverGetProperty(MAJOR_VERSION, &major); cusolverGetProperty(MINOR_VERSION, &minor); cusolverGetProperty(PATCH_LEVEL, &patch); printf("CUSOLVER Version (Major,Minor,PatchLevel): %d.%d.%d\n", major,minor,patch);
1.7. high precision package
The cusolver library uses high precision for iterative refinement when necessary.
2. Using the CUSOLVER API
2.1. General description
This chapter describes how to use the cuSolver library API. It is not a reference for the cuSolver API data types and functions; that is provided in subsequent chapters.
2.1.1. Thread Safety
The library is thread-safe, and its functions can be called from multiple host threads.
2.1.2. Scalar Parameters
In the cuSolver API, the scalar parameters can be passed by reference on the host.
2.1.3. Parallelism with Streams
If the application performs several small independent computations, or if it makes data transfers in parallel with the computation, then CUDA streams can be used to overlap these tasks.
- Create CUDA streams using the function cudaStreamCreate(), and
- Set the stream to be used by each individual cuSolver library routine by calling, for example, cusolverDnSetStream(), just prior to calling the actual cuSolverDN routine.
The computations performed in separate streams would then be overlapped automatically on the GPU, when possible. This approach is especially useful when the computation performed by a single task is relatively small, and is not enough to fill the GPU with work, or when there is a data transfer that can be performed in parallel with the computation.
2.1.4. Link Third-party LAPACK Library
- If you use libcusolver_static.a, then you must link with liblapack_static.a explicitly, otherwise the linker will report missing symbols. No conflict of symbols between liblapack_static.a and other third-party LAPACK library, you are free to link the latter to your application.
- The liblapack_static.a is built inside libcusolver.so. Hence, if you use libcusolver.so, then you don't need to specify a LAPACK library. The libcusolver.so will not pick up any routines from the third-party LAPACK library even you link the application with it.
2.1.5. convention of info
Each LAPACK routine returns an info which indicates the position of invalid parameter. If info = -i, then i-th parameter is invalid. To be consistent with base-1 in LAPACK, cusolver does not report invalid handle into info. Instead, cusolver returns CUSOLVER_STATUS_NOT_INITIALIZED for invalid handle.
2.1.6. usage of _bufferSize
There is no cudaMalloc inside cuSolver library, the user must allocate the device workspace explicitly. The routine xyz_bufferSize is to query the size of workspace of the routine xyz, for example xyz = potrf. To make the API simple, xyz_bufferSize follows almost the same signature of xyz even it only depends on some parameters, for example, device pointer is not used to decide the size of workspace. In most cases, xyz_bufferSize is called in the beginning before actual device data (pointing by a device pointer) is prepared or before the device pointer is allocated. In such case, the user can pass null pointer to xyz_bufferSize without breaking the functionality.
2.2. cuSolver Types Reference
2.2.1. cuSolverDN Types
The float, double, cuComplex, and cuDoubleComplex data types are supported. The first two are standard C data types, while the last two are exported from cuComplex.h. In addition, cuSolverDN uses some familiar types from cuBlas.
2.2.1.1. cusolverDnHandle_t
This is a pointer type to an opaque cuSolverDN context, which the user must initialize by calling cusolverDnCreate() prior to calling any other library function. An un-initialized Handle object will lead to unexpected behavior, including crashes of cuSolverDN. The handle created and returned by cusolverDnCreate() must be passed to every cuSolverDN function.
2.2.1.2. cublasFillMode_t
The type indicates which part (lower or upper) of the dense matrix was filled and consequently should be used by the function. Its values correspond to Fortran characters ‘L’ or ‘l’ (lower) and ‘U’ or ‘u’ (upper) that are often used as parameters to legacy BLAS implementations.
Value | Meaning |
CUBLAS_FILL_MODE_LOWER | the lower part of the matrix is filled |
CUBLAS_FILL_MODE_UPPER | the upper part of the matrix is filled |
2.2.1.3. cublasOperation_t
The cublasOperation_t type indicates which operation needs to be performed with the dense matrix. Its values correspond to Fortran characters ‘N’ or ‘n’ (non-transpose), ‘T’ or ‘t’ (transpose) and ‘C’ or ‘c’ (conjugate transpose) that are often used as parameters to legacy BLAS implementations.
Value | Meaning |
CUBLAS_OP_N | the non-transpose operation is selected |
CUBLAS_OP_T | the transpose operation is selected |
CUBLAS_OP_C | the conjugate transpose operation is selected |
2.2.1.4. cusolverEigType_t
The cusolverEigType_t type indicates which type of eigenvalue solver is. Its values correspond to Fortran integer 1 (A*x = lambda*B*x), 2 (A*B*x = lambda*x), 3 (B*A*x = lambda*x), used as parameters to legacy LAPACK implementations.
Value | Meaning |
CUSOLVER_EIG_TYPE_1 | A*x = lambda*B*x |
CUSOLVER_EIG_TYPE_2 | A*B*x = lambda*x |
CUSOLVER_EIG_TYPE_3 | B*A*x = lambda*x |
2.2.1.5. cusolverEigMode_t
The cusolverEigMode_t type indicates whether or not eigenvectors are computed. Its values correspond to Fortran character 'N' (only eigenvalues are computed), 'V' (both eigenvalues and eigenvectors are computed) used as parameters to legacy LAPACK implementations.
Value | Meaning |
CUSOLVER_EIG_MODE_NOVECTOR | only eigenvalues are computed |
CUSOLVER_EIG_MODE_VECTOR | both eigenvalues and eigenvectors are computed |
2.2.1.6. cusolverIRSRefinement_t
The cusolverIRSRefinement_t type indicates which solver type would be used for the specific cusolver function. Most of our experimentation shows that CUSOLVER_IRS_REFINE_GMRES is the best option.
More details about the refinement process can be found in Azzam Haidar, Stanimire Tomov, Jack Dongarra, and Nicholas J. Higham. 2018. Harnessing GPU tensor cores for fast FP16 arithmetic to speed up mixed-precision iterative refinement solvers. In Proceedings of the International Conference for High Performance Computing, Networking, Storage, and Analysis (SC '18). IEEE Press, Piscataway, NJ, USA, Article 47, 11 pages.
Value | Meaning |
CUSOLVER_IRS_REFINE_NOT_SET | Solver is not set. Default value. |
CUSOLVER_IRS_REFINE_NONE | No solver |
CUSOLVER_IRS_REFINE_CLASSICAL | Classical iterative refinement solver. Similar to the one used in LAPACK routines. |
CUSOLVER_IRS_REFINE_GMRES | GMRES (Generalized Minimal Residual) based iterative refinement solver. In recent study, the GMRES method has drawn the scientific community attention for its ability to be used as refinement solver that outperforms the classical iterative refinement method. |
CUSOLVER_IRS_REFINE_CLASSICAL_GMRES | Classical iterative refinement solver that uses the GMRES (Generalized Minimal Residual) internally to solve the correction equation at each iteration. We call the classical refinement iteration the outer iteration while the GMRES is called inner iteration. Note that if the tolerance of the inner GMRES is set very low, let say to machine precision, then the outer classical refinement iteration will performs only one iteration and thus this option will behaves like CUSOLVER_IRS_REFINE_GMRES. |
CUSOLVER_IRS_REFINE_GMRES_GMRES | Similar to CUSOLVER_IRS_REFINE_CLASSICAL_GMRES which is classical refinement process that uses GMRES to solve the inner correction system, here it is a GMRES (Generalized Minimal Residual) based iterative refinement solver that uses another GMRES internally to solve the preconditionned system. |
2.2.1.7. cusolverDnIRSParams_t
This is a pointer type to an opaque cusolverDnIRSParams_t structure, which holds parameters for the iterative refinement linear solvers such as cusolverDnXgesv(). Use corresponding helper functions described below to either Create/Destroy this structure or Set/Get solver parameters.
2.2.1.8. cusolverDnIRSInfos_t
This is a pointer type to an opaque cusolverDnIRSInfos_t structure, which holds information about the performed call to an iterative refinement linear solver (e.g., cusolverDnXgesv()). Use corresponding helper functions described below to either Create/Destroy this structure or retrieve solve information.
2.2.2. cuSolverSP Types
The float, double, cuComplex, and cuDoubleComplex data types are supported. The first two are standard C data types, while the last two are exported from cuComplex.h.
2.2.2.1. cusolverSpHandle_t
This is a pointer type to an opaque cuSolverSP context, which the user must initialize by calling cusolverSpCreate() prior to calling any other library function. An un-initialized Handle object will lead to unexpected behavior, including crashes of cuSolverSP. The handle created and returned by cusolverSpCreate() must be passed to every cuSolverSP function.
2.2.2.2. cusparseMatDescr_t
We have chosen to keep the same structure as exists in cuSparse to describe the shape and properties of a matrix. This enables calls to either cuSparse or cuSolver using the same matrix description.
typedef struct { cusparseMatrixType_t MatrixType; cusparseFillMode_t FillMode; cusparseDiagType_t DiagType; cusparseIndexBase_t IndexBase; } cusparseMatDescr_t;
Please read documenation of CUSPARSE Library to understand each field of cusparseMatDescr_t.
2.2.2.3. cusolverStatus_t
This is a status type returned by the library functions and it can have the following values.
CUSOLVER_STATUS_SUCCESS |
The operation completed successfully. |
CUSOLVER_STATUS_NOT_INITIALIZED |
The cuSolver library was not initialized. This is usually caused by the lack of a prior call, an error in the CUDA Runtime API called by the cuSolver routine, or an error in the hardware setup. To correct: call cusolverCreate() prior to the function call; and check that the hardware, an appropriate version of the driver, and the cuSolver library are correctly installed. |
CUSOLVER_STATUS_ALLOC_FAILED |
Resource allocation failed inside the cuSolver library. This is usually caused by a cudaMalloc() failure. To correct: prior to the function call, deallocate previously allocated memory as much as possible. |
CUSOLVER_STATUS_INVALID_VALUE |
An unsupported value or parameter was passed to the function (a negative vector size, for example). To correct: ensure that all the parameters being passed have valid values. |
CUSOLVER_STATUS_ARCH_MISMATCH |
The function requires a feature absent from the device architecture; usually caused by the lack of support for atomic operations or double precision. To correct: compile and run the application on a device with compute capability 2.0 or above. |
CUSOLVER_STATUS_EXECUTION_FAILED |
The GPU program failed to execute. This is often caused by a launch failure of the kernel on the GPU, which can be caused by multiple reasons. To correct: check that the hardware, an appropriate version of the driver, and the cuSolver library are correctly installed. |
CUSOLVER_STATUS_INTERNAL_ERROR |
An internal cuSolver operation failed. This error is usually caused by a cudaMemcpyAsync() failure. To correct: check that the hardware, an appropriate version of the driver, and the cuSolver library are correctly installed. Also, check that the memory passed as a parameter to the routine is not being deallocated prior to the routine’s completion. |
CUSOLVER_STATUS_MATRIX_TYPE_NOT_SUPPORTED |
The matrix type is not supported by this function. This is usually caused by passing an invalid matrix descriptor to the function. To correct: check that the fields in descrA were set correctly. |

2.3. cuSolver Formats Reference
2.3.1. Index Base Format
The CSR or CSC format requires either zero-based or one-based index for a sparse matrix A. The GLU library supports only zero-based indexing. Otherwise, both one-based and zero-based indexing are supported in cuSolver.
2.3.2. Vector (Dense) Format
The vectors are assumed to be stored linearly in memory. For example, the vector
|
is represented as
|
2.3.3. Matrix (Dense) Format
The dense matrices are assumed to be stored in column-major order in memory. The sub-matrix can be accessed using the leading dimension of the original matrix. For examle, the m*n (sub-)matrix
|
is represented as
|
with its elements arranged linearly in memory as
|
where lda ≥ m is the leading dimension of A.
2.3.4. Matrix (CSR) Format
In CSR format the matrix is represented by the following parameters
parameter | type | size | Meaning |

nnz | (int) | the number of non-zero elements in the matrix. | |
csrRowPtr | (int *) | n+1 | the array of offsets corresponding to the start of each row in the arrays csrColInd and csrVal. This array has also an extra entry at the end that stores the number of non-zero elements in the matrix. |

csrVal | (S|D|C|Z)* | nnz | the array of values corresponding to the non-zero elements in the matrix. It is assumed that this array is sorted by row and by column within each row. |
Note that in our CSR format sparse matrices are assumed to be stored in row-major order, in other words, the index arrays are first sorted by row indices and then within each row by column indices. Also it is assumed that each pair of row and column indices appears only once.

This function creates and initializes the structure of parameters for an IRS solver such as the cusolverDnIRSXgesv() function to default values. For this release, this function is valid for only one call to an IRS solver, thus each new call to the IRS solver will requires its own Params structure.

cusolverStatus_t cusolverDnIRSParamsDestroy(cusolverDnIRSParams_t params);
This function destroys and releases any memory required by the Params structure. Since the Infos structure (see cusolverDnIRSInfosCreate() for more details) depends on the Params structure, this function cannot be called to destroy the Params structure if the Infos structure was not destroyed. For this release, this function is valid for only one call to an IRS solver, thus each call to an IRS solver should have its own Params and Infos structure. This restriction is going to be removed in future release and then if user want to reuse the same configuration to many call to an IRS solver it will allow him.

2.4.1.22. cusolverDnIRSParamsSetSolverMainPrecision()
cusolverStatus_t cusolverDnIRSParamsSetSolverMainPrecision( cusolverDnIRSParams_t params, cudaDataType solver_main_precision);
This function sets the main precision (e.g., the INOUT data type) of the IRS solver. The value set here should be the same cuda datatype as the third argument on the call to the IRS solver. Note that, the user has to set the main precision before a first call to the IRS solver because it is NOT set by default with the Params creation. He can set it by either calling this function or cusolverDnIRSParamsSetSolverPrecisions(). Possible values are described in the table of the corresponding IRS solver for example, see the description of the third argument of the cusolverDnIRSXgesv() IRS function.
parameter | Memory | In/out | Meaning |
params | host | in/out | The cusolverDnIRSParams_t Params structure |

2.4.1.23. cusolverDnIRSParamsSetSolverLowestPrecision()
cusolverStatus_t cusolverDnIRSParamsSetSolverLowestPrecision( cusolverDnIRSParams_t params, cudaDataType lowest_precision_type);
This function sets the lowest precision that will be used by Iterative Refinement Solver. Note that, the user has to set the lowest precision before a first call to the IRS solver because it is NOT set by default with the Params creation. He can set it by either calling this function or cusolverDnIRSParamsSetSolverPrecisions(). Usually this precision define the speedup that can be achieved. The ratio of the performance of the lowest precision over the inout_data_type precision define somehow the upper bound of the speedup that could be obtained. More precisely, it depends of many factors, but for large matrices sizes, it is the ratio of the matrix-matrix rank-k product (e.g., rank-k GEMM where k is around 256) that define the possible speedup. For instance, if the inout precision is real double precision FP64 and the lowest precision is FP32, then we can expect a speedup of at most 2X for large problem sizes. If the lowest precision was FP16, then we can expect 3X-4X. A reasonable strategy should take the number of right-hand sides and the size of the matrix as well as the convergence rate into account.

- XNRM is the infinity-norm of the solution
- ANRM is the infinity-operator-norm of the matrix A
- EPS is the machine epsilon that matches LAPACK <t1>LAMCH('Epsilon')

params | host | in/out | The cusolverDnIRSParams_t Params structure |
data_type | host | input | cuda datatype of the inout_data_type |

It is not referenced in case of one level refinement solver such as CUSOLVER_IRS_REFINE_CLASSICAL or CUSOLVER_IRS_REFINE_GMRES. This function set the tolerance for the inner solver (e.g. the inner GMRES). For example, if the RefinementSolver was set to CUSOLVER_IRS_REFINE_CLASSICAL_GMRES setting this tolerance mean that the inner GMRES solver will converge to that tolerance at each outer iteration of the classical refinement solver. It is set to 1e-4 by default. Our goal is to give the user as much control as we can such a way he can investigate and control every detail of the IRS solver.

2.4.1.27. cusolverDnIRSParamsSetMaxIters()
cusolverStatus_t cusolverDnIRSParamsSetMaxIters( cusolverDnIRSParams_t params, int max_iters);
This function sets the total number of allowed refinement iterations after which solver will stop. Total means the maximum number of iterations allowed (e.g., outer and inner iterations when two level refinement solver is set). Default value is set to 50. Our goal is to give the user as much control as we can such a way he can investigate and control every detail of the IRS solver.

This function sets the maximal number of iterations allowed for the inner refinement solver. It is not referenced in case of one level refinement solver such as CUSOLVER_IRS_REFINE_CLASSICAL or CUSOLVER_IRS_REFINE_GMRES. The inner refinement solver will stop after reaching either the inner tolerance or the MaxItersInner value. By default, it is set to MaxIters (e.g., 50). Note that this value could not be larger than MaxIters since MaxIters is the total number of allowed iterations. Note that, if user call to set MaxIters after calling this function, the MaxIters has priority and will overwrite MaxItersInner to the minimum value of (MaxIters, MaxItersInner). Our goal is to give the user as much control as we can such a way he can investigate and control every detail of the IRS solver.

2.4.1.36. cusolverDnIRSInfosGetResidualHistory()
cusolverStatus_t cusolverDnIRSInfosGetResidualHistory( cusolverDnIRSParams_t params, cusolverDnIRSInfos_t infos, void **residual_history );
If the user called cusolverDnIRSInfosRequestResidual() before the call to the IRS solve function, this function return a pointer to the matrix of the convergence history residual norms. Precision of residual norms depends on the IRS input data type. If inout datatype has double precision (CUDA_R_FP64 or CUDA_C_FP64 inout datatype), this residual will be real double precision. Otherwise (CUDA_R_FP32 or CUDA_C_FP32 inout datatype) - residual will be with real single precision.
The residual history matrix consists of two columns (even for NRHS case) of MaxIters+1 rows, thus a matrix of size (MaxIters+1,2). Only the first OuterNiters+1 rows contains the needed informations the other (e.g., OuterNiters+2:Maxiters+1) are garbage. On the first column, each row "i" specify the total number of iterations happened at this outer iteration "i" and on the second columns the residual norm corresponding to this outer iteration "i". Thus, the first row (e.g., outer iteration "0") consists of the initial residual (e.g., the residual before the refinement loop start) then the consecutive OuterNiters rows are the residual obtained at each outer iteration of the refinement loop. Note, it only consists of the history of the outer loop.
Thus, if the Refinementsolver was CUSOLVER_IRS_REFINE_CLASSICAL or CUSOLVER_IRS_REFINE_GMRES, then OuterNiters=Niters (Niters is the total number of iterations performed) and there is Niters+1 rows of norms that correspond to the Niters outer iterations.
If the Refinementsolver was CUSOLVER_IRS_REFINE_CLASSICAL_GMRES or CUSOLVER_IRS_REFINE_GMRES_GMRES, then OuterNiters <= Niters corresponds to the outer iterations performed by the outer refinement loop. Thus there is OuterNiters+1 residual norms where row "i" correspond to the outer iteration "i" and the first column specify the total number of iterations (outer and inner) that were performed while the second columns correspond to the residual norm at this stage.
For example, let say the user specify CUSOLVER_IRS_REFINE_CLASSICAL_GMRES as a Refinementsolver and let say it needed 3 outer iterations to converge and 4,3,3 inner iterations at each outer respectively. This consists of 10 total iterations. Thus on row 0 is for the first residual before the refinement start, so it has 0 iteration. On row 1 which correspond to the outer iteration 1, it will be shown 4 (4 is the total number of iterations that were performed till now) on row 2, it will be 7 and on row 3 it will be 10.
As summary, let define ldh=Maxiters+1, the leading dimension of the residual matrix. then residual_history[i] shows the total number of iterations performed at the outer iteration "i" and residual_history[i+ldh] correspond to its norm of the residual at this stage.

This function computes the Cholesky factorization of a Hermitian positive-definite matrix.
A is a n×n Hermitian matrix, only lower or upper part is meaningful. The input parameter uplo indicates which part of the matrix is used. The function would leave other part untouched.
If input parameter uplo is CUBLAS_FILL_MODE_LOWER, only lower triangular part of A is processed, and replaced by lower triangular Cholesky factor L.

The output parameter devIpiv contains pivoting sequence. If devIpiv(i) = k > 0, D(i,i) is 1x1 block, and i-th row/column of A is interchanged with k-th row/column of A. If uplo is CUBLAS_FILL_MODE_UPPER and devIpiv(i-1) = devIpiv(i) = -m < 0, D(i-1:i,i-1:i) is a 2x2 block, and (i-1)-th row/column is interchanged with m-th row/column. If uplo is CUBLAS_FILL_MODE_LOWER and devIpiv(i+1) = devIpiv(i) = -m < 0, D(i:i+1,i:i+1) is a 2x2 block, and (i+1)-th row/column is interchanged with m-th row/column.

cusolverDn<t>potrfBatched()
cusolverStatus_t cusolverDnSpotrfBatched( cusolverDnHandle_t handle, cublasFillMode_t uplo, int n, float *Aarray[], int lda, int *infoArray, int batchSize); cusolverStatus_t cusolverDnDpotrfBatched( cusolverDnHandle_t handle, cublasFillMode_t uplo, int n, double *Aarray[], int lda, int *infoArray, int batchSize);
cusolverStatus_t cusolverDnCpotrfBatched( cusolverDnHandle_t handle, cublasFillMode_t uplo, int n, cuComplex *Aarray[], int lda, int *infoArray, int batchSize); cusolverStatus_t cusolverDnZpotrfBatched( cusolverDnHandle_t handle, cublasFillMode_t uplo, int n, cuDoubleComplex *Aarray[], int lda, int *infoArray, int batchSize);
This function computes the Cholesky factorization of a squence of Hermitian positive-definite matrices.
Each Aarray[i] for i=0,1,..., batchSize-1 is a n×n Hermitian matrix, only lower or upper part is meaningful. The input parameter uplo indicates which part of the matrix is used.
If input parameter uplo is CUBLAS_FILL_MODE_LOWER, only lower triangular part of A is processed, and replaced by lower triangular Cholesky factor L.
If input parameter uplo is CUBLAS_FILL_MODE_UPPER, only upper triangular part of A is processed, and replaced by upper triangular Cholesky factor U.
If Cholesky factorization failed, i.e. some leading minor of A is not positive definite, or equivalently some diagonal elements of L or U is not a real number. The output parameter infoArray would indicate smallest leading minor of A which is not positive definite.
infoArray is an integer array of size batchsize. If potrfBatched returns CUSOLVER_STATUS_INVALID_VALUE, infoArray[0] = -i (less than zero), meaning that the i-th parameter is wrong (not counting handle). If potrfBatched returns CUSOLVER_STATUS_SUCCESS but infoArray[i] = k is positive, then i-th matrix is not positive definite and the Cholesky factorization failed at row k.
Remark: the other part of A is used as a workspace. For example, if uplo is CUBLAS_FILL_MODE_UPPER, upper triangle of A contains cholesky factor U and lower triangle of A is destroyed after potrfBatched.
parameter | Memory | In/out | Meaning |
handle | host | input | handle to the cuSolverDN library context. |
uplo | host | input | indicates if lower or upper part is stored, the other part is used as a workspace. |

Aarray | device | in/out | array of pointers to <type> array of dimension lda * n with lda is not less than max(1,n). |
lda | host | input | leading dimension of two-dimensional array used to store each matrix Aarray[i]. |
infoArray | device | output | array of size batchSize. infoArray[i] contains information of factorization of Aarray[i]. if potrfBatched returns CUSOLVER_STATUS_INVALID_VALUE, infoArray[0] = -i (less than zero) means the i-th parameter is wrong (not counting handle). if potrfBatched returns CUSOLVER_STATUS_SUCCESS, infoArray[i] = 0 means the Cholesky factorization of i-th matrix is successful, and infoArray[i] = k means the leading submatrix of order k of i-th matrix is not positive definite. |

This function solves a squence of linear systems
where each Aarray[i] for i=0,1,..., batchSize-1 is a n×n Hermitian matrix, only lower or upper part is meaningful. The input parameter uplo indicates which part of the matrix is used.
The user has to call potrfBatched first to factorize matrix Aarray[i]. If input parameter uplo is CUBLAS_FILL_MODE_LOWER, A is lower triangular Cholesky factor L correspoding to . If input parameter uplo is CUBLAS_FILL_MODE_UPPER, A is upper triangular Cholesky factor U corresponding to .
The operation is in-place, i.e. matrix X overwrites matrix B with the same leading dimension ldb.
The output parameter info is a scalar. If info = -i (less than zero), the i-th parameter is wrong (not counting handle).
Remark 1: only nrhs=1 is supported.
Remark 2: infoArray from potrfBatched indicates if the matrix is positive definite. info from potrsBatched only shows which input parameter is wrong (not counting handle).
Remark 3: the other part of A is used as a workspace. For example, if uplo is CUBLAS_FILL_MODE_UPPER, upper triangle of A contains cholesky factor U and lower triangle of A is destroyed after potrsBatched.

cusolverDn<t1><t2>gesv()
These functions are modelled after functions DSGESV and ZCGESV from LAPACK and compute the solution to a system of linear equations with multiple right hand sides using mixed precision iterative refinement
Where A is n-by-n matrix and X and B are n-by-nrhs matrices.
Functions are designed to be as close to LAPACK drop-in replacements as possible. Parameters and behaviour are mostly the same as LAPACK counterparts. Description of LAPACK functions and differences from them are below.
<t1><t2>gesv() functions are designated by two floating point precisions - data type (full) precision and internal lower precision. cusolver<t1><t2>gesv() first attempts to factorize the matrix in lower precision and use this factorization within an iterative refinement procedure to obtain a solution with same normwise backward error as full precision. If the approach fails to converge, then the method switches to a full precision factorization and solve.
Note that in addition to the data type / lower floating point precision functions available in LAPACK - also functions with half precision as a lower precision are present. The following table specifies which precisions will be used for which interface function:
Interface function | Data type (matrix, rhs and solution) | Data floating point precision | Internal (compute) floating point precision |
cusolverDnDDgesv | double | double | double |
cusolverDnDSgesv | double | double | single |
cusolverDnDHgesv | double | double | half |
cusolverDnSSgesv | float | single | single |
cusolverDnSHgesv | float | single | half |
cusolverDnZZgesv | cuDoubleComplex | double | double |
cusolverDnZCgesv | cuDoubleComplex | double | single |
cusolverDnZKgesv | cuDoubleComplex | double | half |
cusolverDnCCgesv | cuComplex | single | single |
cusolverDnCKgesv | cuComplex | single | half |
ITER > ITERMAX
or for all the RHS we have:
RNRM < SQRT(N)*XNRM*ANRM*EPS*BWDMAX
where
- ITER is the number of the current iteration in the iterative refinement process
- RNRM is the infinity-norm of the residual
- XNRM is the infinity-norm of the solution
- ANRM is the infinity-operator-norm of the matrix A
- EPS is the machine epsilon that matches LAPACK <t1>LAMCH('Epsilon')
Solve process results will be indicated by output parameter info , see parameter description.
User should provide a large enough workspace allocated on the device for the <t1><t2>gesv() functions. The amount of bytes required can be queried by the respective <t1><t2>gesv_bufferSize() functions.

This function is designed to perform same functionality as cusolverDn<T1><T2>gesv() functions, but wrapped in a more generic and expert interface that gives user more control to parametrize the function as well as it provides more informations on output. See cusolverDn<T1><T2>gesv() description for detailed explanation of the algorithm functionality and behaviour. cusolverDnIRSXgesv() allows additional control of the solver parameters such as setting the - lowest floating point precision authorized to be used by the solver, refinement solver type, maximum allowed number of iterative solver iterations, tolerance of the refinement solver - through Xgesv parameters structure and helper functions. cusolverDnIRSXgesv() provides additional informations on the output such as the convergence history of the residual array and the number of iterations needed to converge.

This function reduces a general m×n matrix A to a real upper or lower bidiagonal form B by an orthogonal transformation:
If m>=n, B is upper bidiagonal; if m<n, B is lower bidiagonal.
The matrix Q and P are overwritten into matrix A in the following sense:

This function computes the singular value decomposition (SVD) of a m×n matrix A and corresponding the left and/or right singular vectors. The SVD is written
where Σ is an m×n matrix which is zero except for its min(m,n) diagonal elements, U is an m×m unitary matrix, and V is an n×n unitary matrix. The diagonal elements of Σ are the singular values of A; they are real and non-negative, and are returned in descending order. The first min(m,n) columns of U and V are the left and right singular vectors of A.
The user has to provide working space which is pointed by input parameter work. The input parameter lwork is size of the working space, and it is returned by gesvd_bufferSize().
If output parameter devInfo = -i (less than zero), the i-th parameter is wrong (not counting handle). if bdsqr did not converge, devInfo specifies how many superdiagonals of an intermediate bidiagonal form did not converge to zero.
The rwork is real array of dimension (min(m,n)-1). If devInfo>0 and rwork is not nil, rwork contains the unconverged superdiagonal elements of an upper bidiagonal matrix. This is slightly different from LAPACK which puts unconverged superdiagonal elements in work if type is real; in rwork if type is complex. rwork can be a NULL pointer if the user does not want the information from supperdiagonal.
Appendix G.1 provides a simple example of gesvd.

This function computes the singular value decomposition (SVD) of a m×n matrix A and corresponding the left and/or right singular vectors. The SVD is written
where Σ is an m×n matrix which is zero except for its min(m,n) diagonal elements, U is an m×m unitary matrix, and V is an n×n unitary matrix. The diagonal elements of Σ are the singular values of A; they are real and non-negative, and are returned in descending order. The first min(m,n) columns of U and V are the left and right singular vectors of A.
gesvdj has the same functionality as gesvd. The difference is that gesvd uses QR algorithm and gesvdj uses Jacobi method. The parallelism of Jacobi method gives GPU better performance on small and medium size matrices. Moreover the user can configure gesvdj to perform approximation up to certain accuracy.
gesvdj iteratively generates a sequence of unitary matrices to transform matrix A to the following form
where S is diagonal and diagonal of E is zero.
During the iterations, the Frobenius norm of E decreases monotonically. As E goes down to zero, S is the set of singular values. In practice, Jacobi method stops if
where eps is given tolerance.
gesvdj has two parameters to control the accuracy. First parameter is tolerance (eps). The default value is machine accuracy but The user can use function cusolverDnXgesvdjSetTolerance to set a priori tolerance. The second parameter is maximum number of sweeps which controls number of iterations of Jacobi method. The default value is 100 but the user can use function cusolverDnXgesvdjSetMaxSweeps to set a proper bound. The experimentis show 15 sweeps are good enough to converge to machine accuracy. gesvdj stops either tolerance is met or maximum number of sweeps is met.
Jacobi method has quadratic convergence, so the accuracy is not proportional to number of sweeps. To guarantee certain accuracy, the user should configure tolerance only.
The user has to provide working space which is pointed by input parameter work. The input parameter lwork is the size of the working space, and it is returned by gesvdj_bufferSize().
If output parameter info = -i (less than zero), the i-th parameter is wrong (not counting handle). If info = min(m,n)+1, gesvdj does not converge under given tolerance and maximum sweeps.
If the user sets an improper tolerance, gesvdj may not converge. For example, tolerance should not be smaller than machine accuracy.
Appendix G.2 provides a simple example of gesvdj.
Remark 1: gesvdj supports any combination of m and n.
Remark 2: the routine returns V, not . This is different from gesvd.

This function computes singular values and singular vectors of a squence of general m×n matrices
where is a real m×n diagonal matrix which is zero except for its min(m,n) diagonal elements. (left singular vectors) is a m×m unitary matrix and (right singular vectors) is a n×n unitary matrix. The diagonal elements of are the singular values of in either descending order or non-sorting order.
gesvdjBatched performs gesvdj on each matrix. It requires that all matrices are of the same size m,n no greater than 32 and are packed in contiguous way,
|
Each matrix is column-major with leading dimension lda, so the formula for random access is .
The parameter S also contains singular values of each matrix in contiguous way,
|
The formula for random access of S is .
Except for tolerance and maximum sweeps, gesvdjBatched can either sort the singular values in descending order (default) or chose as-is (without sorting) by the function cusolverDnXgesvdjSetSortEig. If the user packs several tiny matrices into diagonal blocks of one matrix, non-sorting option can separate singular values of those tiny matrices.
gesvdjBatched cannot report residual and executed sweeps by function cusolverDnXgesvdjGetResidual and cusolverDnXgesvdjGetSweeps. Any call of the above two returns CUSOLVER_STATUS_NOT_SUPPORTED. The user needs to compute residual explicitly.
The user has to provide working space pointed by input parameter work. The input parameter lwork is the size of the working space, and it is returned by gesvdjBatched_bufferSize().
The output parameter info is an integer array of size batchSize. If the function returns CUSOLVER_STATUS_INVALID_VALUE, the first element info[0] = -i (less than zero) indicates i-th parameter is wrong (not counting handle). Otherwise, if info[i] = min(m,n)+1, gesvdjBatched does not converge on i-th matrix under given tolerance and maximum sweeps.

This function gesvda (a stands for approximate) approximates the singular value decomposition of a tall skinny m×n matrix A and corresponding the left and right singular vectors. The economy form of SVD is written by
where Σ is an n×n matrix. U is an m×n unitary matrix, and V is an n×n unitary matrix. The diagonal elements of Σ are the singular values of A; they are real and non-negative, and are returned in descending order. U and V are the left and right singular vectors of A.
gesvda computes eigenvalues of A**T*A to approximate singular values and singular vectors. It generates matrices U and V and transforms the matrix A to the following form
where S is diagonal and E depends on rounding errors. To certain conditions, U, V and S approximate singular values and singular vectors up to machine zero of single precision. In general, V is unitary, S is more accurate than U. If singular value is far from zero, then left singular vector U is accurate. In other words, the accuracy of singular values and left singular vectors depend on the distance between singular value and zero.
The input parameter rank decides the number of singualr values and singular vectors are computed in parameter S, U and V.
The output parameter h_RnrmF computes Frobenius norm of residual.
if the paramter rank is equal n. Otherwise, h_RnrmF reports
in Frobenius norm sense. That is, how far U is from unitary.
gesvdaStridedBatched performs gesvda on each matrix. It requires that all matrices are of the same size m,n and are packed in contiguous way,
|
Each matrix is column-major with leading dimension lda, so the formula for random access is . Similarly, the formula for random access of S is , the formula for random access of U is and the formula for random access of V is .
The user has to provide working space which is pointed by input parameter work. The input parameter lwork is the size of the working space, and it is returned by gesvdaStridedBatched_bufferSize().
The output parameter info is an integer array of size batchSize. If the function returns CUSOLVER_STATUS_INVALID_VALUE, the first element info[0] = -i (less than zero) indicates i-th parameter is wrong (not counting handle). Otherwise, if info[i] = min(m,n)+1, gesvdaStridedBatched does not converge on i-th matrix under given tolerance.
Appendix G.4 provides a simple example of gesvda.
Remark 1: the routine returns V, not . This is different from gesvd.
Remark 2: if the user is confident on the accuracy of singular values and singular vectors, for example, certain conditions hold (required singular value is far from zero), then the performance can be improved by passing null pointer to h_RnrmF, i.e. no computation of residual norm.
