Convergence
Termination criteria for the iterative solvers. While the convergence criterion is solver specific, most of the provided iterative solvers use one of the following criteria \( \|\|r\|\|_X \leq tol_{rel}\|\|r_0\|\|_X \), \( \|\|r\|\|_X \leq tol_{abs} \), \( \|\|r\|\|_X \leq \max\{ tol_{abs}, tol_{rel} \|\|r_0\|\|_X \} \), where X denotes the space in which the norm is measured. The choice of X depends on the specific iterative solver.

Definition at line 173 of file solvers.cpp.

◆ SetPrintLevel() [1/2]

void mfem::IterativeSolver::SetPrintLevel ( int print_lvl )

virtual

Legacy method to set the level of verbosity of the solver output.

This is the old way to control what information will be printed to mfem::out and mfem::err. The behavior for the print level for all iterative solvers is:

-1: Suppress all outputs.
0: Print information about all detected issues (e.g. no convergence).
1: Same as level 0, but with detailed information about each iteration.
2: Print detected issues and a summary when the solver terminates.
3: Same as 2, but print also the first and last iterations.
>3: Custom print options which are dependent on the specific solver.

In parallel, only rank 0 produces output.

Note: It is recommended to use SetPrintLevel(PrintLevel) instead.; Some derived classes, like KINSolver, redefine this method and use their own set of print level constants.

Reimplemented in mfem::KINSolver.

Definition at line 71 of file solvers.cpp.

◆ SetPrintLevel() [2/2]

void mfem::IterativeSolver::SetPrintLevel ( PrintLevel options )

virtual

Set the level of verbosity of the solver output.

In parallel, only rank 0 produces outputs. Errors are output to mfem::err and all other information to mfem::out.

Note: Not all subclasses of IterativeSolver support all possible options.; Some derived classes, like KINSolver, disable this method in favor of SetPrintLevel(int).

See also: PrintLevel for possible options.

Reimplemented in mfem::KINSolver.
