Fix BLIS integration to use BLIS for BLAS + reference LAPACK for LAPACK

ChrisRackauckas · claude · ChrisRackauckas · commit b27b3f3a9207 · 2025-08-03T13:13:42.000-04:00
- Updated LinearSolveBLISExt to use both blis_jll and LAPACK_jll - Changed LAPACK function calls (getrf, getrs) to use liblapack instead of libblis - Added LAPACK_jll to weak dependencies and extension configuration - Created comprehensive test suite for BLIS + reference LAPACK functionality - Tests cover Float32/64, ComplexF32/64, accuracy, caching, and comparison with default solvers - All tests pass, confirming correct BLIS + reference LAPACK integration This fixes the issue where BLIS was incorrectly used for both BLAS and LAPACK operations. The correct approach is BLIS for optimized BLAS operations + reference LAPACK for stable LAPACK operations. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.ai/code) Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>
