Method apply

call p%apply(x,y,desc_a,info [,trans,work])

This method computes $y = op(B^{-1}) x$, where $B$ is a previously built preconditioner, stored into p, and $op$ denotes the preconditioner itself or its transpose, according to the value of trans. Note that, when MLD2P4 is used with a Krylov solver from PSBLAS, p%apply is called within the PSBLAS method psb_krylov and hence it is completely transparent to the user.

Arguments

x	type(kind_parameter), dimension(:), intent(in).
	The local part of the vector $x$. Note that type and kind_parameter must be chosen according to the real/complex, single/double precision version of MLD2P4 under use.
y	type(kind_parameter), dimension(:), intent(out).
	The local part of the vector $y$. Note that type and kind_parameter must be chosen according to the real/complex, single/double precision version of MLD2P4 under use.
desc_a	type(psb_desc_type), intent(in).
	The communication descriptor associated to the matrix to be preconditioned.
info	integer, intent(out).
	Error code. If no error, 0 is returned. See Section 8 for details.
trans	character(len=1), optional, intent(in).
	If trans = 'N','n' then $op(B^{-1}) = B^{-1}$; if trans = 'T','t' then $op(B^{-1}) = B^{-T}$ (transpose of $B^{-1})$; if trans = 'C','c' then $op(B^{-1}) = B^{-C}$ (conjugate transpose of $B^{-1})$.
work	type(kind_parameter), dimension(:), optional, target.
	Workspace. Its size should be at least 4 * psb_cd_get_local_ cols(desc_a) (see the PSBLAS User's Guide). Note that type and kind_parameter must be chosen according to the real/complex, single/double precision version of MLD2P4 under use.

For compatibility with the previous versions of MLD2P4, this method can be also invoked as follows:

call mld_precaply(p,what,val,info)
