Problem Description: 

6557146 Degraded parallel performance for dtrsm
6363972 Perflib filtee libraries need to be self-describing
 
(from 122135-02)
6409326 PERFLIB: 3-D FFT routines are not scaling when many threads are used
6411594 Perflib : Amd64 : 2d FFTs running slowly on opteron
6411613 Perflib : Amd64 : Long vector linear FFTs running slowly for sizes > 8k
6412396 DGELS C interface causes SEGV in strlen
6413515 netlib DGEMV is faster than Sunperf on US-IV
6438127 PERFLIB: Some C-F77 prototypes do not have extra string length arguments in sunperf.h
6439865 PERFLIB: Some C interfaces do not call F77 routines with extra arguments for strings
6449031 Invalid parameter #12 for xGBSVX prototypes in sunperf.h
6445194 Error in C interface prototype descriptions for perflib routines ?gesvx
 
(from 122135-01)
6352815 OpenMP f95 8.1 program core dump when OMP_NUM_THREADS > 1
6359956 incorrect parallelization and error checking in sparse solver code
6363972 Perflib filtee libraries need to be self-describing
6368815 PERFLIB: gemm routines put address into 32bit integer in 64bit build
6374472 PERFLIB Improve performance and scaling of xPOTRF
6376407 Perflib 2-D FFTs spending too much time in the transpose
6376424 errors in xGGBAL and xGELSS LAPACK routines
6386823 Dscal get wrong answer when scaling by zero
