         INTEGER        IWORK( * )

         REAL           A( LDA, * ), B( LDB, * ), C( LDC, * ), D( LDD, * ), E(
                        LDE, * ), F( LDF, * )

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.

PURPOSE
     STGSY2 solves the generalized Sylvester equation:
                 A * R - L * B = scale * C                (1)
                 D * R - L * E = scale * F,

     using Level 1 and 2 BLAS. where R and L are unknown M-by-N matrices, (A,
     D), (B, E) and (C, F) are given matrix pairs of size M-by-M, N-by-N and
     M-by-N, respectively, with real entries. (A, D) and (B, E) must be in
     generalized Schur canonical form, i.e. A, B are upper quasi triangular
     and D, E are upper triangular. The solution (R, L) overwrites (C, F). 0
     <= SCALE <= 1 is an output scaling factor chosen to avoid overflow.

     In matrix notation solving equation (1) corresponds to solve Z*x =
     scale*b, where Z is defined as

            Z = [ kron(In, A)  -kron(B', Im) ]             (2)
                [ kron(In, D)  -kron(E', Im) ],

     Ik is the identity matrix of size k and X' is the transpose of X.
     kron(X, Y) is the Kronecker product between the matrices X and Y.  In the
     process of solving (1), we solve a number of such systems where Dim(In),
     Dim(In) = 1 or 2.

     If TRANS = 'T', solve the transposed system Z'*y = scale*b for y, which
     is equivalent to solve for R and L in

                 A' * R  + D' * L   = scale *  C           (3)
                 R  * B' + L  * E'  = scale * -F

     This case is used to compute an estimate of Dif[(A, D), (B, E)] =
     sigma_min(Z) using reverse communicaton with SLACON.

     STGSY2 also (IJOB >= 1) contributes to the computation in STGSYL of an
     upper bound on the separation between to matrix pairs. Then the input (A,
     D), (B, E) are sub-pencils of the matrix pair in STGSYL. See STGSYL for
     details.


ARGUMENTS
     TRANS   (input) CHARACTER
             = 'N', solve the generalized Sylvester equation (1).  = 'T':
             solve the 'transposed' system (3).

     IJOB    (input) INTEGER
             Specifies what kind of functionality to be performed.  = 0: solve
             (1) only.
             = 1: A contribution from this subsystem to a Frobenius norm-based
             estimate of the separation between two matrix pairs is computed.
             (look ahead strategy is used).  = 2: A contribution from this
             subsystem to a Frobenius norm-based estimate of the separation
             between two matrix pairs is computed. (SGECON on sub-systems is
             used.)  Not referenced if TRANS = 'T'.

     M       (input) INTEGER
             On entry, M specifies the order of A and D, and the row dimension
             of C, F, R and L.

     N       (input) INTEGER
             On entry, N specifies the order of B and E, and the column
             dimension of C, F, R and L.

     A       (input) REAL array, dimension (LDA, M)
             On entry, A contains an upper quasi triangular matrix.

     LDA     (input) INTEGER
             The leading dimension of the matrix A. LDA >= max(1, M).

     B       (input) REAL array, dimension (LDB, N)
             On entry, B contains an upper quasi triangular matrix.

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

     C       (input/output) REAL array, dimension (LDC, N)
             On entry, C contains the right-hand-side of the first matrix
             equation in (1).  On exit, if IJOB = 0, C has been overwritten by
             the solution R.

     LDC     (input) INTEGER
             The leading dimension of the matrix C. LDC >= max(1, M).

     D       (input) REAL array, dimension (LDD, M)
             On entry, D contains an upper triangular matrix.

     LDD     (input) INTEGER

     LDE     (input) INTEGER
             The leading dimension of the matrix E. LDE >= max(1, N).

     F       (input/output) REAL array, dimension (LDF, N)
             On entry, F contains the right-hand-side of the second matrix
             equation in (1).  On exit, if IJOB = 0, F has been overwritten by
             the solution L.

     LDF     (input) INTEGER
             The leading dimension of the matrix F. LDF >= max(1, M).

     SCALE   (output) REAL
             On exit, 0 <= SCALE <= 1. If 0 < SCALE < 1, the solutions R and L
             (C and F on entry) will hold the solutions to a slightly
             perturbed system but the input matrices A, B, D and E have not
             been changed. If SCALE = 0, R and L will hold the solutions to
             the homogeneous system with C = F = 0. Normally, SCALE = 1.

     RDSUM   (input/output) REAL
             On entry, the sum of squares of computed contributions to the
             Dif-estimate under computation by STGSYL, where the scaling
             factor RDSCAL (see below) has been factored out.  On exit, the
             corresponding sum of squares updated with the contributions from
             the current sub-system.  If TRANS = 'T' RDSUM is not touched.
             NOTE: RDSUM only makes sense when STGSY2 is called by STGSYL.

     RDSCAL  (input/output) REAL
             On entry, scaling factor used to prevent overflow in RDSUM.  On
             exit, RDSCAL is updated w.r.t. the current contributions in
             RDSUM.  If TRANS = 'T', RDSCAL is not touched.  NOTE: RDSCAL only
             makes sense when STGSY2 is called by STGSYL.

     IWORK   (workspace) INTEGER array, dimension (M+N+2)

     PQ      (output) INTEGER
             On exit, the number of subsystems (of size 2-by-2, 4-by-4 and 8-
             by-8) solved by this routine.

     INFO    (output) INTEGER
             On exit, if INFO is set to =0: Successful exit
             <0: If INFO = -i, the i-th argument had an illegal value.
             >0: The matrix pairs (A, D) and (B, E) have common or very close
             eigenvalues.
