Changelog:
- add BLAS calls for the following functions:
- gsl_vector_memcpy
- gsl_vector_scale
- gsl_matrix_memcpy
- gsl_matrix_transpose_memcpy
- gsl_matrix_tricpy
- gsl_matrix_transpose_tricpy
- deprecated functions gsl_linalg_complex_householder_hm and gsl_linalg_complex_householder_mh.
- multilarge TSQR algorithm has been converted to use the new Level 3 QR decomposition.
- nonlinear least squares Cholesky solver now uses the new Level 3 BLAS method; the old modified Cholesky solver is still available under gsl_multifit_nlinear_solver_mcholesky and gsl_multilarge_nlinear_solver_mcholesky.
- implemented Level 3 BLAS versions of several linear algebra routines:
- Triangular matrix inversion
- Cholesky decomposition and inversion (real and complex)
- LU decomposition and inversion (real and complex)
- QR decomposition (courtesy of Julien Langou)
- Generalized symmetric/hermitian eigensystem reduction to standard form
- removed deprecated function gsl_linalg_hessenberg().
- renamed gsl_interp2d_eval_e_extrap() to gsl_interp2d_eval_extrap_e() to match documentation.
- renamed some of the gsl_sf_hermite functions to be more consistent with rest of the library, and deprecated old function names.
- updated gsl_sf_hermite_func() to use a newer algorithm due to B. Bunck which is more stable for large x; also added gsl_sf_hermite_func_fast() which uses the faster Cauchy integral algorithm in the same paper by Bunck.
- add gsl_vector_axpby().
- add un-pivoted LDLT decomposition and its banded variant (gsl_linalg_ldlt_* and gsl_linalg_ldlt_band_*).
- add binary search tree module (gsl_bst); based on GNU libavl.
- remove -u flag to gsl-histogram.
- updated spmatrix module
- added routines and data structures for all types (float,uint,char,...)
- added gsl_spmatrix_scale_columns() and gsl_spmatrix_scale_rows()
- added gsl_spmatrix_add_to_dense()
- more efficient reallocation of COO/triplet matrices (no longer rebuilds binary tree)
- added gsl_spmatrix_min_index()
- add routines for banded Cholesky decomposition (gsl_linalg_cholesky_band_*).
- documented gsl_linalg_LQ routines and added gsl_linalg_LQ_lssolve().
