KSPSetFromOptions

Sets KSP options from the options database. This routine must be called before KSPSetUp() if the user is to be allowed to set the Krylov type.

Synopsis

#include "petscksp.h" 
PetscErrorCode PETSCKSP_DLLEXPORT KSPSetFromOptions(KSP ksp)
Collective on KSP

Input Parameters

ksp -the Krylov space context

Options Database Keys

                      convergence test (say you always want to run with 5 iterations) to 
                      save on communication overhead
                   preconditioned - default for left preconditioning 
                   unpreconditioned - see KSPSetNormType()
                   natural - see KSPSetNormType()
-ksp_max_it - maximum number of linear iterations
-ksp_rtol rtol - relative tolerance used in default determination of convergence, i.e. if residual norm decreases by this factor than convergence is declared
-ksp_atol abstol - absolute tolerance used in default convergence test, i.e. if residual norm is less than this then convergence is declared
-ksp_divtol tol - if residual norm increases by this factor than divergence is declared
-ksp_converged_use_initial_residual_norm - see KSPDefaultConvergedSetUIRNorm()
-ksp_converged_use_min_initial_residual_norm - see KSPDefaultConvergedSetUMIRNorm()
-ksp_norm_type - none - skip norms used in convergence tests (useful only when not using
-ksp_constant_null_space - assume the operator (matrix) has the constant vector in its null space
-ksp_test_null_space - tests the null space set with KSPSetNullSpace() to see if it truly is a null space
-ksp_knoll - compute initial guess by applying the preconditioner to the right hand side
-ksp_monitor_cancel - cancel all previous convergene monitor routines set
-ksp_monitor <optional filename> - print residual norm at each iteration
-ksp_monitor_draw - plot residual norm at each iteration
-ksp_monitor_solution - plot solution at each iteration
-ksp_monitor_singular_value - monitor extremem singular values at each iteration
