19 flexiblas_load_backend loads a backend from the FlexiBLAS configura‐
20 tion. The name parameter specifies the name of the backend inside the
21 configuration. The available backends can be access via flexiblas_list.
22 Except of some special backends, like the upcoming CUBLAS backend the
23 backend is initialized during the load. The name of the backend is not
24 case sensitive.

29 On success, it returns the id of the loaded backend which is used
30 within a later call to flexiblas_switch to change the backend.

32 If the requested backend can not be found in the configuration, an er‐
33 ror is returned.
