# rocSOLVER
rocSOLVER is a work-in-progress implementation of a subset of [LAPACK][1]
functionality on the [ROCm platform][2].
## Documentation
> [!NOTE]
> The published rocSOLVER documentation is available at [rocSOLVER](https://rocm.docs.amd.com/projects/rocSOLVER/en/latest/index.html) in an organized, easy-to-read format, with search and a table of contents. The documentation source files reside in the rocSOLVER/docs folder of this repository. As with all ROCm projects, the documentation is open source. For more information, see [Contribute to ROCm documentation](https://rocm.docs.amd.com/en/latest/contribute/contributing.html).
### How to build documentation
Please follow the instructions below to build the documentation.
```
cd docs
pip3 install -r sphinx/requirements.txt
python3 -m sphinx -T -E -b html -d _build/doctrees -D language=en . _build/html
```
## Building rocSOLVER
To download the rocSOLVER source code, clone this repository with the command:
git clone https://github.com/ROCmSoftwarePlatform/rocSOLVER.git
rocSOLVER requires rocBLAS as a companion GPU BLAS implementation. For
more information about rocBLAS and how to install it, see the
[rocBLAS documentation][4].
After a standard installation of rocBLAS, the following commands will build
rocSOLVER and install to `/opt/rocm`:
cd rocSOLVER
./install.sh -i
Once installed, rocSOLVER can be used just like any other library with a C API.
The header file will need to be included in the user code, and both the rocBLAS
and rocSOLVER shared libraries will become link-time and run-time dependencies
for the user application.
If you are a developer contributing to rocSOLVER, you may wish to run
`./scripts/install-hooks` to install the git hooks for autoformatting.
You may also want to take a look at the [contributing guidelines][7]
## Using rocSOLVER
The following code snippet shows how to compute the QR factorization of a
general m-by-n real matrix in double precision using rocSOLVER. A longer
version of this example is provided by `example_basic.cpp` in the
[samples directory][5]. For a description of the `rocsolver_dgeqrf`
function, see the [rocSOLVER API documentation][6].
```cpp
/////////////////////////////
// example.cpp source code //
/////////////////////////////
#include <algorithm> // for std::min
#include <stddef.h> // for size_t
#include <vector>
#include <hip/hip_runtime_api.h> // for hip functions
#include <rocsolver/rocsolver.h> // for all the rocsolver C interfaces and type declarations
int main() {
rocblas_int M;
rocblas_int N;
rocblas_int lda;
// here is where you would initialize M, N and lda with desired values
rocblas_handle handle;
rocblas_create_handle(&handle);
size_t size_A = size_t(lda) * N; // the size of the array for the matrix
size_t size_piv = size_t(std::min(M, N)); // the size of array for the Householder scalars
std::vector<double> hA(size_A); // creates array for matrix in CPU
std::vector<double> hIpiv(size_piv); // creates array for householder scalars in CPU
double *dA, *dIpiv;
hipMalloc(&dA, sizeof(double)*size_A); // allocates memory for matrix in GPU
hipMalloc(&dIpiv, sizeof(double)*size_piv); // allocates memory for scalars in GPU
// here is where you would initialize matrix A (array hA) with input data
// note: matrices must be stored in column major format,
// i.e. entry (i,j) should be accessed by hA[i + j*lda]
// copy data to GPU
hipMemcpy(dA, hA.data(), sizeof(double)*size_A, hipMemcpyHostToDevice);
// compute the QR factorization on the GPU
rocsolver_dgeqrf(handle, M, N, dA, lda, dIpiv);
// copy the results back to CPU
hipMemcpy(hA.data(), dA, sizeof(double)*size_A, hipMemcpyDeviceToHost);
hipMemcpy(hIpiv.data(), dIpiv, sizeof(double)*size_piv, hipMemcpyDeviceToHost);
// the results are now in hA and hIpiv, so you can use them here
hipFree(dA); // de-allocate GPU memory
hipFree(dIpiv);
rocblas_destroy_handle(handle); // destroy handle
}
```
The exact command used to compile the example above may vary depending on the
system environment, but here is a typical example:
/opt/rocm/bin/hipcc -I/opt/rocm/include -c example.cpp
/opt/rocm/bin/hipcc -o example -L/opt/rocm/lib -lrocsolver -lrocblas example.o
