*  =============
*>
*> \verbatim
*>
*> SLATRS solves one of the triangular systems
*>
*>    A *x = s*b  or  A**T*x = s*b
*>
*> with scaling to prevent overflow.  Here A is an upper or lower
*> triangular matrix, A**T denotes the transpose of A, x and b are
*> n-element vectors, and s is a scaling factor, usually less than
*> or equal to 1, chosen so that the components of x will be less than
*> the overflow threshold.  If the unscaled problem will not cause
*> overflow, the Level 2 BLAS routine STRSV is called.  If the matrix A
*> is singular (A(j,j) = 0 for some j), then s is set to 0 and a
*> non-trivial solution to A*x = 0 is returned.
*> \endverbatim
*
*  Arguments:
*  ==========
*
*> \param[in] UPLO
*> \verbatim
*>          UPLO is CHARACTER*1
*>          Specifies whether the matrix A is upper or lower triangular.
*>          = 'U':  Upper triangular
*>          = 'L':  Lower triangular
*> \endverbatim
*>
*> \param[in] TRANS
*> \verbatim
*>          TRANS is CHARACTER*1
*>          Specifies the operation applied to A.
*>          = 'N':  Solve A * x = s*b  (No transpose)
*>          = 'T':  Solve A**T* x = s*b  (Transpose)
*>          = 'C':  Solve A**T* x = s*b  (Conjugate transpose = Transpose)
*> \endverbatim
*>
*> \param[in] DIAG
*> \verbatim
*>          DIAG is CHARACTER*1
*>          Specifies whether or not the matrix A is unit triangular.
*>          = 'N':  Non-unit triangular
*>          = 'U':  Unit triangular
*> \endverbatim
*>
*> \param[in] NORMIN
*> \verbatim
*>          NORMIN is CHARACTER*1
*>          Specifies whether CNORM has been set or not.
*>          = 'Y':  CNORM contains the column norms on entry
*>          = 'N':  CNORM is not set on entry.  On exit, the norms will
*>                  be computed and stored in CNORM.
*> \endverbatim
*>
*> \param[in] N
*> \verbatim
*>          N is INTEGER
*>          The order of the matrix A.  N >= 0.
*> \endverbatim
*>
*> \param[in] A
*> \verbatim
*>          A is REAL array, dimension (LDA,N)
*>          The triangular matrix A.  If UPLO = 'U', the leading n by n
*>          upper triangular part of the array A contains the upper
*>          triangular matrix, and the strictly lower triangular part of
*>          A is not referenced.  If UPLO = 'L', the leading n by n lower
*>          triangular part of the array A contains the lower triangular
*>          matrix, and the strictly upper triangular part of A is not
*>          referenced.  If DIAG = 'U', the diagonal elements of A are
*>          also not referenced and are assumed to be 1.
*> \endverbatim
*>
*> \param[in] LDA
*> \verbatim
*>          LDA is INTEGER
*>          The leading dimension of the array A.  LDA >= max (1,N).
*> \endverbatim
*>
*> \param[in,out] X
*> \verbatim
*>          X is REAL array, dimension (N)
*>          On entry, the right hand side b of the triangular system.
*>          On exit, X is overwritten by the solution vector x.
*> \endverbatim
*>
*> \param[out] SCALE
*> \verbatim
*>          SCALE is REAL
*>          The scaling factor s for the triangular system
*>             A * x = s*b  or  A**T* x = s*b.

*> \endverbatim
*>
*> \param[in,out] CNORM
*> \verbatim
*>          CNORM is REAL array, dimension (N)
*>
*>          If NORMIN = 'Y', CNORM is an input argument and CNORM(j)
*>          contains the norm of the off-diagonal part of the j-th column
*>          of A.  If TRANS = 'N', CNORM(j) must be greater than or equal
*>          to the infinity-norm, and if TRANS = 'T' or 'C', CNORM(j)
*>          must be greater than or equal to the 1-norm.
*>
*>          If NORMIN = 'N', CNORM is an output argument and CNORM(j)
*>          returns the 1-norm of the offdiagonal part of the j-th column
*>          of A.

*> \verbatim
*>
*>  A rough bound on x is computed; if that is less than overflow, STRSV
*>  is called, otherwise, specific code is used which checks for possible
*>  overflow or divide-by-zero at every operation.
*>
*>  A columnwise scheme is used for solving A*x = b.  The basic algorithm
*>  if A is lower triangular is
*>
*>       x[1:n] := b[1:n]
*>       for j = 1, ..., n
*>            x(j) := x(j) / A(j,j)
*>            x[j+1:n] := x[j+1:n] - x(j) * A[j+1:n,j]
*>       end
*>
*>  Define bounds on the components of x after j iterations of the loop:
*>     M(j) = bound on x[1:j]
*>     G(j) = bound on x[j+1:n]
*>  Initially, let M(0) = 0 and G(0) = max{x(i), i=1,...,n}.
*>
*>  Then for iteration j+1 we have
*>     M(j+1) <= G(j) / | A(j+1,j+1) |
*>     G(j+1) <= G(j) + M(j+1) * | A[j+2:n,j+1] |
*>            <= G(j) ( 1 + CNORM(j+1) / | A(j+1,j+1) | )
*>
*>  where CNORM(j+1) is greater than or equal to the infinity-norm of
*>  column j+1 of A, not counting the diagonal.  Hence
*>
*>     G(j) <= G(0) product ( 1 + CNORM(i) / | A(i,i) | )
*>                  1<=i<=j
*>  and
*>
*>     |x(j)| <= ( G(0) / |A(j,j)| ) product ( 1 + CNORM(i) / |A(i,i)| )
*>                                   1<=i< j
*>
*>  Since |x(j)| <= M(j), we use the Level 2 BLAS routine STRSV if the
*>  reciprocal of the largest M(j), j=1,..,n, is larger than
*>  max(underflow, 1/overflow).
*>
*>  The bound on x(j) is also used to determine when a step in the
*>  columnwise method can be performed without fear of overflow.  If
*>  the computed bound is greater than a large constant, x is scaled to
*>  prevent overflow, but if the bound overflows, x is set to 0, x(j) to
*>  1, and scale to 0, and a non-trivial solution to A*x = 0 is found.
*>
*>  Similarly, a row-wise scheme is used to solve A**T*x = b.  The basic
*>  algorithm for A upper triangular is
*>
*>       for j = 1, ..., n
*>            x(j) := ( b(j) - A[1:j-1,j]**T * x[1:j-1] ) / A(j,j)
*>       end
*>
*>  We simultaneously compute two bounds
*>       G(j) = bound on ( b(i) - A[1:i-1,i]**T * x[1:i-1] ), 1<=i<=j
*>       M(j) = bound on x(i), 1<=i<=j
*>
*>  The initial values are G(0) = 0, M(0) = max{b(i), i=1,..,n}, and we
*>  add the constraint G(j) >= G(j-1) and M(j) >= M(j-1) for j >= 1.
*>  Then the bound on x(j) is
*>
*>       M(j) <= M(j-1) * ( 1 + CNORM(j) ) / | A(j,j) |
*>
*>            <= M(0) * product ( ( 1 + CNORM(i) ) / |A(i,i)| )
*>                      1<=i<=j
*>
*>  and we can safely call STRSV if 1/M(n) and 1/G(n) are both greater
*>  than max(underflow, 1/overflow).
