      where ALPHA and BETA are scalar, C and B are m by n dense matrices,
      D is a diagonal scaling matrix,  A is a unit, or non-unit, upper or
      lower triangular matrix represented in skyline format and
      op( A )  is one  of

       (inv denotes matrix inverse,  ' indicates matrix transpose)

ARGUMENTS

      TRANSA        Indicates how to operate with the sparse matrix
                      0 : operate with matrix
                      1 : operate with transpose matrix
                      2 : operate with the conjugate transpose of matrix.
                          2 is equivalent to 1 if matrix is real.

      M             Number of rows in matrix A

      N             Number of columns in matrix C

      UNITD         Type of scaling:
                      1 : Identity matrix (argument DV[] is ignored)
                      2 : Scale on left (row scaling)
                      3 : Scale on right (column scaling)
                      4 : Automatic row or column scaling (see section
                          NOTES for further details)

      DV()          Array of length M containing the diagonal entries of the
                    scaling diagonal matrix D.

                    DESCRA(1) matrix structure
                      0 : general
                      1 : symmetric (A=A')
                      2 : Hermitian (A= CONJG(A'))
                      3 : Triangular
                      4 : Skew(Anti)-Symmetric (A=-A')
                      5 : Diagonal
                      6 : Skew-Hermitian (A= -CONJG(A'))

                    Note: For the routine, DESCRA(1)=3 is only supported.
                    DESCRA(2) upper/lower triangular indicator
                      1 : lower
                      2 : upper
                    DESCRA(3) main diagonal type
                      0 : non-unit
                      1 : unit
                    DESCRA(4) Array base  (NOT IMPLEMENTED)
                      0 : C/C++ compatible
                      1 : Fortran compatible
                    DESCRA(5) repeated indices? (NOT IMPLEMENTED)
                      0 : unknown
                      1 : no repeated indices

      VAL()         array contain the nonzeros of A in skyline profile form.
                    Row-oriented if DESCRA(2) = 1 (lower triangular),
                    column oriented if DESCRA(2) = 2 (upper triangular).

      PNTR()        integer array of length M+1 (lower triangular) or
                    K+1 (upper triangular) such that PNTR(I)-PNTR(1)+1
                    points to the location in VAL of the first element of
                    the skyline profile in row (column) I.

      B()           rectangular array with first dimension LDB.

      LDB           leading dimension of B

      BETA          Scalar parameter

      C()           rectangular array with first dimension LDC.

      LDC           leading dimension of C

      WORK()        scratch array of length LWORK.
                    On exit,  if LWORK = -1, WORK(1) returns the optimum LWORK.

      LWORK         length of WORK array.  LWORK should be at least M.

                    For good performance, LWORK should generally be larger.
                    For optimum performance on multiple processors, LWORK
                    >=M*N_CPUS where N_CPUS is the maximum number of
                    processors available to the program.

                    If LWORK=0, the routine is to allocate workspace needed.

                    If LWORK = -1, then a workspace query is assumed; the
                    routine only calculates the optimum size of the WORK
                    array, returns this value as the first entry of the WORK
                    array, and no error message related to LWORK is issued
                    by XERBLA.

NOTES/BUGS
     1. Also not supported:
       a. lower triangular matrix  A of size m by n where m > n
       b. upper triangular matrix  A of size m by n where m < n

     2. No test for singularity or near-singularity is included
     in this routine. Such tests must be performed before calling
     this routine.

     3. If UNITD =4, the routine scales the rows of A if
     DESCRA(2)=1 and the columns of A if DESCRA(2)=2 such that
     their 2-norms are one. The scaling may improve the accuracy
     of the computed solution. Corresponding entries of VAL are
     changed only in this particular case. On return DV matrix
     stored as a vector contains the diagonal matrix by which the
     rows (columns) have been scaled. UNITD=2 if DESCRA(2)=1 and
     UNITD=3 if DESCRA(2)=2 should be used for the next calls to
     the routine with overwritten VAL and DV.

     WORK(1)=0 on return if the scaling has been completed
     successfully, otherwise WORK(1) = -i where i is the row
     (column) number which 2-norm is exactly zero.

     4. If DESCRA(3)=1 and  UNITD < 4, the unit diagonal elements
     might or might not be referenced in the SKY representation
     of a sparse matrix. They are not used anyway in these cases.
     But if UNITD=4, the unit diagonal elements MUST be
     referenced in the SKY representation.

     5. The routine can be applied for solving triangular systems
     when the upper or lower triangle of the general sparse
     matrix A is used. However DESCRA(1) must be equal to 3 in
     this case.
