MKL_SPARSE_SYRK

Hi all,

I got to know that the recent MKLs include MKL_SPARSE_SYRK which I have been looking for. I eagerly want to use it, but I have a hard time getting used to oneAPI. Anybody tell me where the illuminating example is? It would be greatly appreciated.

MKL_SPARSE_SYRK is part of MKL for many years. You are looking for dpp API of this routine? if yes, then MKL v.2021.3 doesn't support DPCPP API for this routine.

Hi Chung!

Adding to response by Gennady:

If you're looking for an example which demonstrates how to call "mkl_sparse_syrk" C/Fortran (not DPC++!) interface, we currently don't have any. But conceptually it is very much alike mkl_sparse_spmm functionality (sparse * sparse -> sparse), so I'd recommend looking at examples/c/sparse_blas/source/sparse_spmm_export_csr.c example.

What you need to do: create matrix handles for the input matrices, call mkl_sparse_syrk to compute the output matrix and then (optionally, if you need the raw pointers) export data from the output matrix handle using mkl_sparse_?_export_<format>.

Let us know if you have any issues with calling the functionality.

Best,
Kirill

Hi Kirill. 

Thank you for your kind explanation.

I am looking for an example written in Fortran. I have been using "dsyrk" until recently when we needed some speedup in our code. I am familiar with MKL v.2015.3 which I have been using, so I am very glad to hear that mkl_sparse_syrk is supported by old-version MKLs.  Is mkl_sparse_syrk supported by MKL v.2015.3, too?

Also, I tried to look at the example you recommend, but I guess we didn't download Sparse Blas when we first installed MKL in 2015. I was wondering whether there is a download site providing all the previous versions of MKL. 

Thank you very much,

Chung

Chung,

There are only 3 latest versions of Intel MKL available for download: v.2019, v 2020 and the latest 2021 correspondingly. Version 2015 is outdated and not supported nowadays.

thanks,

Gennady
