Hi, I am not sure that I understand the MatStructure flag in the call of KSPSetOperators correctly.
If I use KSPSetOperators(ksp, A, P, DIFFERENT_NONZERO_PATTERN) and then solve two linear systems with the same matrix operators but different rhs is the preconditioner reassembled in every solve. I.e., if I call KSPSolve(ksp,b1,x1); KSPSolve(ksp,b2,x2); And if I use KSPSetOperators(ksp, A, P, SAME_PRECONDITIONER) the preconditioner is only setup one time and reused later. Or is the flag only important if I change the matrix operators in between.
