    /*  Purpose */
    /*  ======= */

    /*  DPOTRF computes the Cholesky factorization of a real symmetric */
    /*  positive definite matrix A. */

    /*  The factorization has the form */
    /*     A = U**T * U,  if UPLO = 'U', or */
    /*     A = L  * L**T,  if UPLO = 'L', */
    /*  where U is an upper triangular matrix and L is lower triangular. */

    /*  This is the block version of the algorithm, calling Level 3 BLAS. */

    /*  Arguments */
    /*  ========= */

    /*  UPLO    (input) CHARACTER*1 */
    /*          = 'U':  Upper triangle of A is stored; */
    /*          = 'L':  Lower triangle of A is stored. */

    /*  N       (input) INTEGER */
    /*          The order of the matrix A.  N >= 0. */

    /*  A       (input/output) DOUBLE PRECISION array, dimension (LDA,N) */
    /*          On entry, the symmetric matrix A.  If UPLO = 'U', the leading */
    /*          N-by-N upper triangular part of A contains the upper */
    /*          triangular part of the matrix A, and the strictly lower */
    /*          triangular part of A is not referenced.  If UPLO = 'L', the */
    /*          leading N-by-N lower triangular part of A contains the lower */
    /*          triangular part of the matrix A, and the strictly upper */
    /*          triangular part of A is not referenced. */

    /*          On exit, if INFO = 0, the factor U or L from the Cholesky */
    /*          factorization A = U**T*U or A = L*L**T. */

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

    /*  INFO    (output) INTEGER */
    /*          = 0:  successful exit */
    /*          < 0:  if INFO = -i, the i-th argument had an illegal value */
    /*          > 0:  if INFO = i, the leading minor of order i is not */
    /*                positive definite, and the factorization could not be */
    /*                completed. */
