Removing the former promotion with
Float32
to support e.g.Float16
? :)There was a problem hiding this comment.

good eye, missed that change - might want to throw in a test for this bit if there's any behavior that this enables right now

Hm. I had integer and rational input in mind and then
sqrt(one(T))
should be sufficient to get a BLAS type but you are right that a matrix withFloat16
would stayFloat16
. Probably not a big problem, though. If you do arithmetic withFloat16
you probably would like to avoid that your elements get promoted silently.There was a problem hiding this comment.

so will integer or rational input now behave differently with this?

No. They are unaffected since
sqrt(one(T)) isa Float64
forT in (Rational{Int},Int)
. AMatrix{Float16}
will now fail instead of being promoted. I think that is reasonable because people usingFloat16
most likely prefer an error over silent promotion and I really don't think anybody was ever calledbkfact
with aMatrix{Float16}
in serious code.There was a problem hiding this comment.

Float16 is used somewhat frequently in the gpu community. What will the error be in that case? We silently promote for intermediate calculations pretty often and convert back to the destination type when an implementation isn't available in a specific element type.

We don't do this for factorizations and there hasn't been expressed any demand for this so I think we good for now. We can revisit if
Float16
users start asking for this behavior.There was a problem hiding this comment.

can you answer the question at least?

don't all the other factorizations have generic implementations so they wouldn't error?

You'll get a
MethodError
inbkfact!
. Not all factorizations have generic fallbacks, e.g.eig
andsvd
.
