+    LinearSolveAdjoint(; linsolve = nothing)
+
+Given a Linear Problem ``A x = b`` computes the sensitivities for ``A`` and ``b`` as:
+
+```math
+\begin{align}
+A^T \lambda &= \partial x   \\
+\partial A  &= -\lambda x^T \\
+\partial b  &= \lambda
+\end{align}
+```
+
+For more details, check [these notes](https://math.mit.edu/~stevenj/18.336/adjoint.pdf).
+
+## Choice of Linear Solver
+
+Note that in most cases, it makes sense to use the same linear solver for the adjoint as the
+forward solve (this is done by keeping the linsolve as `nothing`). For example, if the
+forward solve was performed via a Factorization, then we can reuse the factorization for the
+adjoint solve. However, for specific structured matrices if ``A^T`` is known to have a
+specific structure distinct from ``A`` then passing in a `linsolve` will be more efficient.
