PCMGSetNumberSmooth#

Sets the number of pre and post-smoothing steps to use on all levels. Use PCMGDistinctSmoothUp() to create separate up and down smoothers if you want different numbers of pre- and post-smoothing steps.

Synopsis#

#include "petscksp.h" 
PetscErrorCode PCMGSetNumberSmooth(PC pc, PetscInt n)

Logically Collective

Input Parameters#

  • pc - the multigrid context

  • n - the number of smoothing steps

Options Database Key#

  • -mg_levels_ksp_max_it - Sets number of pre and post-smoothing steps

Note#

This does not set a value on the coarsest grid, since we assume that there is no separate smooth up on the coarsest grid.
