Error occured when calling mkl_sparse_z_add(...). Please help.

[Dan_Ghiocel]

Dear Intel MKL experts,

      I add two sparse matrices that are COO format via mkl_sparse_z_add(...) of the Inspector-executor Sparse BLAS Routines.

      I got the following error information. I don't understand why? Based on my limited experience, it is caused by accessing array out of index range. But  the Inspector-executor sparse BLAS routines handles inside itself. I created matrix ,mat_a, by calling

      Ierr = mkl_sparse_z_create_coo (mat_a, 1, n_c, n_c, nnz_a, rowind, colind, coo)

      Ierr ==0, which says creating mat_a correct. I did same thing to create matrix , which is also correct.

     Ierr = mkl_sparse_z_create_coo (mat_b, 1, n_c, n_c, nnz_b, rowind, colind, coo)

     But when I call subroutine to add them together, I got the error and code crashed.

     Ierr = mkl_sparse_z_add (SPARSE_OPERATION_NON_TRANSPOSE, mat_a, beta, mat_b, mat_c)

     Please help me to find what reason causes the code crashed. Please show me an example, if it is possible.

Dan, I see the problem on my side too. The problem affects COO format only. As a temporarily workaround the problem is to make the addition by himself.

The issue is escalated. We will keep you informed when the fix the problem will be available.

[Gennady_F_Intel]

the issue has been fixed in MKL 11.3.4. please check how it works on your side.
