LAPACK Routines

The following LAPACK routines are threaded with Intel TBB:
?geqrf, ?gelqf, ?getrf, ?potrf, ?unmqr*, ?ormqr*, ?unmrq*, ?ormrq*, ?unmlq*, ?ormlq*, ?unmql*, ?ormql*, ?sytrd, ?hetrd, ?syev, ?heev, and ?latrd.

A number of other LAPACK routines, which are based on threaded LAPACK or BLAS routines, make effective use of Intel TBB threading:
?getrs, ?gesv, ?potrs, ?bdsqr, and ?gels.

oneMKL PARDISO Steps

Intel® oneAPI Math Kernel Library PARDISO is threaded with Intel TBB in the reordering and factorization steps. However, routines performing the solving step are still called sequentially when using Intel TBB.

Sparse BLAS Routines

The Sparse BLAS inspector-executor application programming interface routines mkl_sparse_?_mv are threaded with Intel TBB for the general compressed sparse row (CSR) and block sparse row (BSR) formats.

The following Sparse BLAS inspector-executor application programming routines are threaded with Intel TBB:
