Summary
Fixes inconsistency in Enzyme extension where forward rule threw an error for Krylov methods while reverse rule properly supported them.
Problem
Issue #766 reported Enzyme differentiation failing with KrylovJL_GMRES. Investigation revealed:
Solution
Implemented proper forward differentiation for Krylov methods in the forward rule:
y = A⁻¹b
, computesdy/dt = A⁻¹(db/dt - dA/dt * y)
db - dA * res
Changes
Testing
Notes
This fixes the specific inconsistency in LinearSolve.jl's Enzyme extension. The broader issue in #766 involving constant variable handling may require additional work, but this addresses the immediate compilation error with Krylov methods.
