Dear All,

In order to ease the investigation, I reproduced this segfault by running snes/examples/tutorials/ex1f.F with the option -snes_type fas.

I have the feeling that this is due to the nullity of the context object of FormJacobian (PETSC_NULL_OBJECT in Fortran).

Best regards,

Nicolas

Dear PETSc team,

I have interfaced our fortran legacy code with PETSC SNES. I mainly followed the examples you provide. What I conceptually used is :

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    call SNESCreate(PETSC_COMM_WORLD,snes,ierr)

    call SNESSetFromOptions(snes,ierr)

    call SNESSETFunction(snes, pf, nonlinFormFunction, PETSC_NULL_OBJECT, ierr)

    call SNESSetJacobian(snes, mat, mat, nonlinFormJacobian, PETSC_NULL_OBJECT, ierr)

    call SNESSetKSP(snes, myksp, ierr)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The code runs fine with -snes_type newtonls or newtontr. But when using -snes_type fas, it complains with the message :

When exploring a little bit with a debugger, it seems that the object snes->vec_rhs which is used is fas.c is a null pointer.

What is this object vec_rhs and how to set it?

Thank you in advance,

Nicolas
