PURPOSE

     dsysv computes the solution to a real system of linear equa-
     tions
        A * X = B, where A is an N-by-N symmetric  matrix  and  X
     and B are N-by-NRHS matrices.

     The diagonal pivoting method is used to factor A as
        A = U * D * U**T,  if UPLO = 'U', or
        A = L * D * L**T,  if UPLO = 'L',
     where U (or L) is a product of permutation  and  unit  upper
     (lower)  triangular  matrices,  and D is symmetric and block
     diagonal with 1-by-1 and 2-by-2 diagonal blocks.   The  fac-
     tored  form  of  A is then used to solve the system of equa-
     tions A * X = B.

ARGUMENTS

     UPLO (input)
               = 'U':  Upper triangle of A is stored;
               = 'L':  Lower triangle of A is stored.

     N (input) The number of linear equations, i.e., the order of
               the matrix A.  N >= 0.

     NRHS (input)
               The number of right hand sides, i.e.,  the  number
               of columns of the matrix B.  NRHS >= 0.

     A (input/output)
               On entry, the symmetric matrix A.  If UPLO =  'U',
               the leading N-by-N upper triangular part of A con-
               tains the upper triangular part of the  matrix  A,
               and the strictly lower triangular part of A is not
               referenced.  If UPLO =  'L',  the  leading  N-by-N
               lower triangular part of A contains the lower tri-
               angular part of the matrix  A,  and  the  strictly
               upper triangular part of A is not referenced.

               On exit, if INFO = 0, the block diagonal matrix  D
               and the multipliers used to obtain the factor U or
               L from the factorization  A  =  U*D*U**T  or  A  =
               L*D*L**T as computed by DSYTRF.
     LDA (input)
               The leading dimension of  the  array  A.   LDA  >=
               max(1,N).

     IPIVOT (output)
               Details of the interchanges and the  block  struc-
               ture  of D, as determined by DSYTRF.  If IPIVOT(k)
               > 0, then rows and columns k  and  IPIVOT(k)  were
               interchanged,  and  D(k,k)  is  a  1-by-1 diagonal
               block.  If UPLO = 'U' and IPIVOT(k) =  IPIVOT(k-1)
               < 0, then rows and columns k-1 and -IPIVOT(k) were
               interchanged and D(k-1:k,k-1:k) is a 2-by-2 diago-
               nal   block.   If  UPLO  =  'L'  and  IPIVOT(k)  =
               IPIVOT(k+1) < 0, then rows  and  columns  k+1  and
               -IPIVOT(k) were interchanged and D(k:k+1,k:k+1) is
               a 2-by-2 diagonal block.

     B (input/output)
               On entry, the N-by-NRHS right hand side matrix  B.
               On  exit,  if  INFO  =  0,  the N-by-NRHS solution
               matrix X.

     LDB (input)
               The leading dimension of  the  array  B.   LDB  >=
               max(1,N).

     WORK (workspace)
               On exit, if INFO = 0, WORK(1) returns the  optimal
               LWORK.

     LWORK (input)
               The length of WORK.  LWORK >= 1, and for best per-
               formance  LWORK  >=  N*NB, where NB is the optimal
               blocksize for DSYTRF.

               If LWORK = -1, then a workspace query is  assumed;
               the  routine  only  calculates the optimal 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.

     INFO (output)
               = 0: successful exit
               < 0: if INFO = -i, the i-th argument had an  ille-
               gal value
               > 0: if INFO = i, D(i,i)  is  exactly  zero.   The
               factorization  has  been  completed, but the block
               diagonal matrix D  is  exactly  singular,  so  the
               solution could not be computed.
