is magma_ssymv availlable for sparse matrices?

Hi,

I am new to magma and GPU computing in general. I want to know if symmetric SpMV can be implemented in magma. In other words is there a sparse version for magma_ssymv?

Cheers

Sorry, there is no symmetric SpMV at this point. You are welcome to contribute one. Otherwise you will have to stick to the non-symmetric kernel. I however doubt you would see large performance benefits from exploiting symmetry, this is very difficult.
Please let me know whether you have further questions.
Thanks, Hartwig
