/**
    Purpose
    -------
    CGETRF_m computes an LU factorization of a general M-by-N matrix A
    using partial pivoting with row interchanges.  This version does not
    require work space on the GPU passed as input. GPU memory is allocated
    in the routine. The matrix may exceed the GPU memory.

    The factorization has the form
       A = P * L * U
    where P is a permutation matrix, L is lower triangular with unit
    diagonal elements (lower trapezoidal if m > n), and U is upper
    triangular (upper trapezoidal if m < n).

    This is the right-looking Level 3 BLAS version of the algorithm.

    Note: The factorization of big panel is done calling multiple-gpu-interface.
    Pivots are applied on GPU within the big panel.

    Arguments
    ---------
    @param[in]
    num_gpus INTEGER
             The number of GPUs.  num_gpus > 0.

    @param[in]
    m       INTEGER
            The number of rows of the matrix A.  M >= 0.

    @param[in]
    n       INTEGER
            The number of columns of the matrix A.  N >= 0.

    @param[in,out]
    A       COMPLEX array, dimension (LDA,N)
            On entry, the M-by-N matrix to be factored.
            On exit, the factors L and U from the factorization
            A = P*L*U; the unit diagonal elements of L are not stored.
    \n
            Higher performance is achieved if A is in pinned memory, e.g.
            allocated using magma_malloc_pinned.

    @param[in]
    lda     INTEGER
            The leading dimension of the array A.  LDA >= max(1,M).

    @param[out]
    ipiv    INTEGER array, dimension (min(M,N))
            The pivot indices; for 1 <= i <= min(M,N), row i of the
            matrix was interchanged with row IPIV(i).

    @param[out]
    info    INTEGER
      -     = 0:  successful exit
      -     < 0:  if INFO = -i, the i-th argument had an illegal value
                  or another error occured, such as memory allocation failed.
      -     > 0:  if INFO = i, U(i,i) is exactly zero. The factorization
                  has been completed, but the factor U is exactly
                  singular, and division by zero will occur if it is used
                  to solve a system of equations.

       Univ. of Colorado, Denver
       August 2013

    Purpose
    =======
    CGETRF_m computes an LU factorization of a general M-by-N matrix A
    using partial pivoting with row interchanges.  This version does not
    require work space on the GPU passed as input. GPU memory is allocated
    in the routine. The matrix may not fit entirely in the GPU memory.

    The factorization has the form
       A = P * L * U
    where P is a permutation matrix, L is lower triangular with unit
    diagonal elements (lower trapezoidal if m > n), and U is upper
    triangular (upper trapezoidal if m < n).

    This is the right-looking Level 3 BLAS version of the algorithm.

    Note: The factorization of big panel is done calling multiple-gpu-interface.
    Pivots are applied on GPU within the big panel.

    Arguments
    =========
    M       (input) INTEGER
            The number of rows of the matrix A.  M >= 0.

    N       (input) INTEGER
            The number of columns of the matrix A.  N >= 0.

    A       (input/output) COMPLEX array, dimension (LDA,N)
            On entry, the M-by-N matrix to be factored.
            On exit, the factors L and U from the factorization
            A = P*L*U; the unit diagonal elements of L are not stored.

            Higher performance is achieved if A is in pinned memory, e.g.
            allocated using magma_malloc_pinned.

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

    IPIV    (output) INTEGER array, dimension (min(M,N))
            The pivot indices; for 1 <= i <= min(M,N), row i of the
            matrix was interchanged with row IPIV(i).

    INFO    (output) INTEGER
            = 0:  successful exit
            < 0:  if INFO = -i, the i-th argument had an illegal value
                  or another error occured, such as memory allocation failed.
            > 0:  if INFO = i, U(i,i) is exactly zero. The factorization
                  has been completed, but the factor U is exactly
                  singular, and division by zero will occur if it is used
                  to solve a system of equations.
