2a8381b23c702518c6b1ccbeafee50b9375df0e4 - Add automatic generated fortran support for setting and returning contexts

Tue, 13 Jan 2026 04:45:38 +0000

Add automatic generated fortran support for setting and returning contextsMajor cleanup of the code for setting and returning application (previously called user) contexts - PetscCtx ctx is now the standard for passing in contexts - PetscCtxRt ctx is the standard for passing out contexts, including context destroy routines based on PetscCtxDestroyFnBoth of these are typedef to void*Also removed most use of user and userctx for context arguments now consistently named ctxImproved documentation on PetscCtx and PetscCtxRt and on how to use contexts (including getting them) from Fortran List of files: /petsc/doc/manual/snes.md

Improve the propagation of function domain error handling in SNES, especially in the line search routines.Due to the object layering of SNESLineSearch under SNES there is some code duplication include both SNESLineSearchReason and SNESConvergedReason and SNESCheckFunctionNorm() and SNESLineSearchCheckFunctionNorm() and Jacobian friendsReported-by: david.knezevic@akselos.com List of files: /petsc/doc/manual/snes.md

Wed, 27 Aug 2025 02:18:34 +0000

SNESLinesearch: Minor improvements- add missing configuration options in the documentation of the line searches (some of the available options were not listed), and consistently list their respective default values- add proper convergence criteria for the secant method in the L2 line search based on ltol and atol (otherwise, the secant method is mostly running for the maximum number of iterations)- fix a small bug in the CP line search, where steptol * lambda was used to check for convergence based on the change of lambda instead of the ltol parameter- rename sneslinesearch->maxstep to sneslinesearch->maxlambda in the options database to be consistent with its purpose in the algorithms- rename SNESLineSearchL2 to SNESLineSearchSecant to better represent its underlying approach List of files: /petsc/doc/manual/snes.md
