Dear Petsc Users,

I am trying to implement a variant of the $l^1$-Gauss-Seidel smoother from 
https://doi.org/10.1137/100798806 (eq. 6.1 and below). One of the main issues 
is that I need to compute the sum  $\sum_j |a_{i_j}|$ of the matrix entries 
that are not part of the local diagonal block. I was looking for something like 
MatGetRowSumAbs but it looks like it hasn't been made yet.

I guess i have to come up with something myself, but would you know of some 
workaround for this without going too deep into PETCs?

Best Cyrill
