*> \par Purpose:
*  =============
*>
*> \verbatim
*>
*>    ZPOSVXX uses the Cholesky factorization A = U**T*U or A = L*L**T
*>    to compute the solution to a complex*16 system of linear equations
*>    A * X = B, where A is an N-by-N Hermitian positive definite matrix
*>    and X and B are N-by-NRHS matrices.
*>
*>    If requested, both normwise and maximum componentwise error bounds
*>    are returned. ZPOSVXX will return a solution with a tiny
*>    guaranteed error (O(eps) where eps is the working machine
*>    precision) unless the matrix is very ill-conditioned, in which
*>    case a warning is returned. Relevant condition numbers also are
*>    calculated and returned.
*>
*>    ZPOSVXX accepts user-provided factorizations and equilibration
*>    factors; see the definitions of the FACT and EQUED options.
*>    Solving with refinement and using a factorization from a previous
*>    ZPOSVXX call will also produce a solution with either O(eps)
*>    errors or warnings, but we cannot make that claim for general
*>    user-provided factorizations and equilibration factors if they
*>    differ from what ZPOSVXX would itself produce.

*
*> \par Description:
*  =================
*>
*> \verbatim
*>
*>    The following steps are performed:
*>
*>    1. If FACT = 'E', double precision scaling factors are computed to equilibrate
*>    the system:
*>
*>      diag(S)*A*diag(S)     *inv(diag(S))*X = diag(S)*B
*>
*>    Whether or not the system will be equilibrated depends on the
*>    scaling of the matrix A, but if equilibration is used, A is
*>    overwritten by diag(S)*A*diag(S) and B by diag(S)*B.
*>
*>    2. If FACT = 'N' or 'E', the Cholesky decomposition is used to
*>    factor the matrix A (after equilibration if FACT = 'E') as
*>       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 a lower triangular
*>    matrix.
*>
*>    3. If the leading principal minor of order i is not positive,
*>    then the routine returns with INFO = i. Otherwise, the factored
*>    form of A is used to estimate the condition number of the matrix
*>    A (see argument RCOND).  If the reciprocal of the condition number
*>    is less than machine precision, the routine still goes on to solve
*>    for X and compute error bounds as described below.
*>
*>    4. The system of equations is solved for X using the factored form
*>    of A.
*>
*>    5. By default (unless PARAMS(LA_LINRX_ITREF_I) is set to zero),
*>    the routine will use iterative refinement to try to get a small
*>    error and error bounds.  Refinement calculates the residual to at
*>    least twice the working precision.
*>
*>    6. If equilibration was used, the matrix X is premultiplied by
*>    diag(S) so that it solves the original system before
*>    equilibration.
*> \endverbatim
*
*  Arguments:
*  ==========
*
*> \verbatim
*>     Some optional parameters are bundled in the PARAMS array.  These
*>     settings determine how refinement is performed, but often the
*>     defaults are acceptable.  If the defaults are acceptable, users
*>     can pass NPARAMS = 0 which prevents the source code from accessing
*>     the PARAMS argument.
*> \endverbatim

*>               If EQUED is not 'N', the matrix A has been
*>               equilibrated with scaling factors given by S.
*>               A and AF are not modified.
*>       = 'N':  The matrix A will be copied to AF and factored.
*>       = 'E':  The matrix A will be equilibrated if necessary, then

*>     and error estimates. Scaling by powers of the radix does not cause
*>     rounding errors unless the result underflows or overflows.
*>     Rounding errors during scaling lead to refining with a matrix that

*>     This also means that the solution X, estimated condition numbers,
