Thanks for the change Markus 🙂

It took me some while to confirm the problem, as I have not seen any trouble with it on openSUSE Linux 15.2 with SUNDIALS 5.3.0 installed, as the OP reports.

The problem was (BEFORE Markus change) seen on my system deep buried in "config.log":


configure:82216: checking whether SUNDIALS IDA includes the SUNLINSOL_DENSE linear solver
configure:82251: gcc -c -g -O2 -pthread -fopenmp      conftest.c >&5
conftest.c: In function 'main':
conftest.c:616:10: warning: implicit declaration of function 'IDADense'; did you mean 'IDAFree'? [-Wimplicit-function-declaration]
          IDADense (mem, num);
          ^~~~~~~~
          IDAFree


Thus my system kind of ignored the test 😨

After Markus change


configure:82206: checking sunlinsol/sunlinsol_dense.h usability
configure:82206: gcc -c -g -O2 -pthread -fopenmp      conftest.c >&5
configure:82206: $? = 0
configure:82206: result: yes
configure:82206: checking sunlinsol/sunlinsol_dense.h presence
configure:82206: gcc -E      conftest.c
configure:82206: $? = 0
configure:82206: result: yes
configure:82206: checking for sunlinsol/sunlinsol_dense.h
configure:82206: result: yes


Thus it works, closing report.

Hopefully fixed here:
https://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave/rev/8592190176a8

Marking as ready for test (again).

That turns out to be more complicated than what I hoped it would be.
The configure output contains:

checking for SUNDenseLinearSolver... yes
checking whether SUNDIALS API provides the necessary functions... yes


Yet compilation fails with:

../src/libinterp/dldfcn/__ode15__.cc: In function ‘_generic_SUNLinearSolver* octave::SUNLinSol_Dense(N_Vector, SUNMatrix)’:
../src/libinterp/dldfcn/__ode15__.cc:103:12: error: ‘SUNDenseLinearSolver’ was not declared in this scope; did you mean ‘SUNLinearSolver’?

That's probably because I removed the test `AC_CHECK_HEADERS([sunlinsol/sunlinsol_dense.h])`. I am currently trying to find the best place to add that back in.

I pushed a changeset that removes that configure check here:
https://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave/rev/34a83d34038e

Marking as ready for test.

Confirmed.
Support for SUNDIALS versions older than 3.0 has been removed from Octave 6.
The configure test for IDADense is probably just a left-over and can be removed.
It looks like the corresponding macro HAVE_SUNDIALS_SUNLINSOL_DENSE is nowhere used any more.

Since sundials-3.0.0 the function IDADENSE is no more available in the package. (I am using sundials-5.4.0 on a linux and macos system)
This function was available until sundials-2.7.0. (at least to my knowledge)
In the configure file (until octave version 7.0.0) is still code testing the availability of DENSE in sundials:

example for octave 5.2


  { $as_echo "$as_me:${as_lineno-$LINENO}: checking whether SUNDIALS IDA includes the IDADENSE linear solver" >&5
$as_echo_n "checking whether SUNDIALS IDA includes the IDADENSE linear solver... " >&6; }
if ${octave_cv_sundials_ida_dense+:} false; then :
  $as_echo_n "(cached) " >&6
else
  cat confdefs.h - <<_ACEOF >conftest.$ac_ext
/* end confdefs.h.  */

         #if defined (HAVE_IDA_IDA_DENSE_H)
         #include <ida/ida_dense.h>
         #else
         #include <ida_dense.h>
         #endif

#ifdef F77_DUMMY_MAIN

#  ifdef __cplusplus
     extern "C"
#  endif
   int F77_DUMMY_MAIN() { return 1; }

#endif
int
main ()
{

         void *mem = 0;
         long int num = 0;
         IDADense (mem, num);

  ;
  return 0;
}


as this test delivers always a negative feedback, the result is always:


warn_sundials_ida_dense="SUNDIALS IDA library does not include the IDADENSE linear solver, ode15i and ode15s will be disabled"


Please double check and in case you can confirm please use a valid function to test for DENSE.
