- Update to release 2024.05.001
* support of ROCM 6.x and preparation for AMD Mi300

used

* implement a patch for a bug in cusolverDnXtrtri_bufferSize for
CUDA versions < 12.1
* PoC RCCL support for AMD GPUs, only for experienced users
* significantly faster cholesky decomposition step

Wed Dec 13 14:34:04 UTC 2017 - dev@stellardeath.org
- Update to release 2017.05.003
Changelog for ELPA 2017.05.003
- remove bug in invert_triangular, which had been introduced
in ELPA 2017.05.002
Changelog for ELPA 2017.05.002
Mainly bugfixes for ELPA 2017.05.001:
- fix memory leak of MPI communicators
- tests for hermitian_multiply, cholesky decomposition and
- deal with a problem on Debian (mawk)
Changelog for ELPA 2017.05.001
Final release of ELPA 2017.05.001
Since rc2 the following changes have been made
- more extensive tests during "make check"
- distribute missing C headers
- introduce analytic tests
- Fix stack overflow in some kernels
Changelog for ELPA 2017.05.001.rc2
This is the release candidate 2 for the ELPA 2017.05.001 version.
Additionaly to the changes from rc1, it fixes some smaller issues
- add missing script "manual_cpp"
- cleanup of code
Changelog for ELPA 2017.05.001.rc1
This is the release candidate 1 for the ELPA 2017.05.001 version.
It provides a first version of the new, more generic API of the ELPA library.
Smaller changes to the API might be possible in the upcoming release
candidates. For users, who would like to use the older API of the ELPA
library, the API as defined with release 2016.11.001.pre is frozen in and
also supported.
Apart of the API change to be more flexible for the future, this release
offers the following changes:
- faster GPU implementation, especially for ELPA 1stage
- the restriction of the block-cyclic distribution blocksize = 128 in the GPU
case is relaxed
- Faster CPU implementation due to better blocking
- support of already banded matrices (new API only!)
- improved KNL support
Changelog for pre-release ELPA 2016.11.001.pre
This pre-release contains an experimental API which will most likely
change in the next stable release
- also suport of single-precision (real and complex case) eigenvalule problems
- GPU support in ELPA 1stage and 2stage (real and complex case)
- change of API (w.r.t. ELPA 2016.05.004) to support runtime-choice of GPU usage
