Matthew, I think this fixes the scalar issue:

Hi,

I re-wrote the code to include the code from this branch - it's made everything a lot simpler:
https://github.com/ashwinsrnth/petsc-pycuda/blob/master/GPUArray.pyx

Some notes:

  1) You can check the return type of the PETSc calls for errors

  2) Lisandro, do you have an automatic converter from PetscScalar to a numpy dtype? Using np.dtype.float64 is dicey.

  Thanks,

    Matt
 

If I can help with adding the functionality to `petsc4py`, I'd be glad to :)

Thanks,
Ashwin

Thanks! Looks good. Ashwin, could you please re-write your code to
test this branch? Once you confirm everything's working, we can follow
discussing how to better support this in petsc4py.
