Following on from https://github.com/SciML/OrdinaryDiffEq.jl/pull/1153#issuecomment-637703922, it would be useful to be able to exploit cases where the right-hand side `f` can be efficiently calculated as ``` y = a*f(u,t) + b*y...

run CI on julia 1.8

Since the tests are failing on nightly, would be good to test on 1.8

remove use of jl_set_value on 1.9

Fixes #708 (I hope). @vtjnash is this the correct usage?

This seems like the easiest fix to #639.

Can't ldiv! a QR factorization with a BlockVector

11

This came up while trying to use an implicit solver with OrdinaryDiffEq. A simple reproducible example: ```julia julia> using BlockArrays, LinearAlgebra julia> x = BlockArray(rand(3)) 1-blocked 3-element BlockVector{Float64, Vector{Vector{Float64}}, Tuple{Base.OneTo{Int64}}}:...

fixes #500

allow declaration of custom operations at precompilation

Fixes #404. needs tests. @vchuravy would this work on PPC? We should set up a CI build now that Travis supports PPC.
