type of alpha in the scal function

sycl-developer — Thu, 05 Oct 2023 14:33:36 GMT

After reading the cublas level-1 scal functions, I wonder if the oneMKL blas level-1 function "scal" expects a scalar "alpha" (i.e. float or double). Thanks for clarification.

cublasStatus_t cublasSscal(cublasHandle_t handle, int n, const float *alpha, float *x, int incx)

cublasStatus_t cublasDscal(cublasHandle_t handle, int n, const double *alpha, double *x, int incx)

cublasStatus_t cublasCscal(cublasHandle_t handle, int n, const cuComplex *alpha, cuComplex *x, int incx)

cublasStatus_t cublasCsscal(cublasHandle_t handle, int n, const float *alpha, cuComplex *x, int incx)

cublasStatus_t cublasZscal(cublasHandle_t handle, int n, const cuDoubleComplex *alpha, cuDoubleComplex *x, int incx)

cublasStatus_t cublasZdscal(cublasHandle_t handle, int n, const double *alpha, cuDoubleComplex *x, int incx)
