# KSPGetConvergenceTest
Gets the function to be used to determine convergence. 
## Synopsis
```
#include "petscksp.h" 
#include "petscmat.h" 
PetscErrorCode KSPGetConvergenceTest(KSP ksp, PetscErrorCode (**converge)(KSP, PetscInt, PetscReal, KSPConvergedReason *, void *), void **cctx, PetscErrorCode (**destroy)(void *))
```
Logically Collective


## Input Parameter

- ***ksp -*** iterative context obtained from `KSPCreate()`



## Output Parameters

- ***converge -*** pointer to convergence test function
- ***cctx    -*** context for private data for the convergence routine (may be null)
- ***destroy -*** a routine for destroying the context (may be null)



## Calling sequence of converge
```none
converge (`KSP` ksp, `PetscInt` it, `PetscReal` rnorm, `KSPConvergedReason` *reason,void *mctx)
```


- ***ksp -*** iterative context obtained from `KSPCreate()`
- ***it -*** iteration number
- ***rnorm -*** (estimated) 2-norm of (preconditioned) residual
- ***reason -*** the reason why it has converged or diverged
- ***cctx  -*** optional convergence context, as set by `KSPSetConvergenceTest()`
