IMPLEMENTATION
     These routines are part of the SCSL Scientific Library and can be loaded
     using either the -lscs or the -lscs_mp option.  The -lscs_mp option
     directs the linker to use the multi-processor version of the library.

     When linking to SCSL with -lscs or -lscs_mp, the default integer size is
     4 bytes (32 bits). Another version of SCSL is available in which integers
     are 8 bytes (64 bits).  This version allows the user access to larger
     memory sizes and helps when porting legacy Cray codes.  It can be loaded
     by using the -lscs_i8 option or the -lscs_i8_mp option. A program may use
     only one of the two versions; 4-byte integer and 8-byte integer library
     calls cannot be mixed.

     The C and C++ prototypes shown above are appropriate for the 4-byte
     integer version of SCSL. When using the 8-byte integer version, the
     variables of type int become long long and the <scsl_blas_i8.h> header
     file should be included.

DESCRIPTION
     These routines perform the following matrix-vector operation:

          y <-alpha Ax +  beta y

     where alpha and beta are scalars, x and y are n-element vectors, and A is
     an n-by-n symmetric packed matrix.

     See the NOTES section of this man page for information about the
     interpretation of the data types described in the following arguments.

     These routines have the following arguments:

     uplo      Character.  (input)
               Specifies whether the upper or lower triangular part of matrix
               A is packed into the array argument ap, as follows:

               uplo= 'U' or 'u':  the upper triangular part of A is being
               supplied in the argument ap.
               uplo= 'L' or 'l':  the lower triangular part of A is being
               supplied in the argument ap.

               For C/C++, a pointer to this character is passed.

     n         Integer.  (input)
               Specifies the order of matrix A.  n >= 0.

     alpha     Scalar alpha.  (input)
               SSPMV: Single precision.
               DSPMV: Double precision.
               CSPMV: Single precision complex.
               ZSPMV: Double precision complex.

               For C/C++, a pointer to this scalar is passed when alpha is
               complex; otherwise, alpha is passed by value.

     ap        Array of dimension (n(n+1))/2  (input)
               SSPMV: Single precision array.
               DSPMV: Double precision array.
               CSPMV: Single precision complex array.
               ZSPMV: Double precision complex array.

               Before entry with uplo = 'U' or 'u', array ap must contain the
               upper triangular part of the symmetric matrix packed
               sequentially, column-by-column, so that ap(1) contains A(1,1),
               ap(2) contains A(1,2), ap(3) contains A(2,2), and so on.

               Before entry with uplo = 'L' or 'l', array ap must contain the
               lower triangular part of the symmetric matrix packed
               sequentially, column-by-column, so that ap(1) contains A(1,1),
               ap(2) contains A(2,1), ap(3) contains A(3,1), and so on.

     x         Array of dimension 1+(n-1) * |incx|.  (input)
               SSPMV: Single precision array.
               DSPMV: Double precision array.
               CSPMV: Single precision omplex array.
               ZSPMV: Double precision complex array.
               Contains vector x.

     incx      Integer.  (input)
               Specifies the increment for the elements of x.  incx must not
               be 0.

     beta      Scalar beta.  (input)
               SSPMV: Single precision.
               DSPMV: Double precision.
               CSPMV: Single precision complex.
               ZSPMV: Double precision complex.
               If beta is supplied as 0, y need not be set on input.

               For C/C++, a pointer to this scalar is passed when beta is
               complex; otherwise, beta is passed by value.

     y         Array of dimension 1+(n-1) * |incy|.  (input and output)
               SSPMV: Single precision array.
               DSPMV: Double precision array.
               CSPMV: Single precision complex array.
               ZSPMV: Double precision complex array.
               Contains vector y.  On exit, the updated vector overwrites
               array y.

     incy      Integer.  (input)
               Specifies the increment for the elements of y.  incy must not
               be 0.

NOTES
     SSPMV/DSPMV is a Level 2 Basic Linear Algebra Subprogram (Level 2 BLAS).
     CSPMV/ZSPMV is an extension to Level 2 BLAS.

     When working backward (incx < 0 or incy < 0), each routine starts at the
     end of the vector and moves backward, as follows:

          x(1-incx * (n-1)), x(1-incx * (n-2)) , ..., x(1)

          y(1-incy * (n-1)), y(1-incy * (n-2)) , ..., y(1)

     Note that you can explicitly declare multidimensional C/C++ arrays
     provided that the array dimensions are swapped with respect to the
     Fortran declaration (e.g., x[n][m] in C/C++ versus x(m,n) in Fortran).
     To avoid a compiler type mismatch error in C++ (or a compiler warning
     message in C), however, the array should be cast to a pointer of the
     appropriate type when passed as an argument to a SCSL routine.
