-`UMFPACKFactorization(;reuse_symbolic=true, check_pattern=true)`
+`UMFPACKFactorization(;reuse_symbolic=true, check_pattern=true, control=Vector{Float64}(20))`
 
 A fast sparse multithreaded LU-factorization which specializes on sparsity
 patterns with “more structure”.
 
+## Fields
+
+* `reuse_symbolic`: Whether the symbolic factorization is reused between calls. This requires that the sparsity pattern is
+  preserved. Defaults to true.
+* `check_pattern`: Whether the sparsity pattern is checked for changes to allow for symbolic factorization caching. 
+  The default is true.
+* `control`: A control vector for more options to pass to UMFPACK. See the UMFPACK documentation for more details.
+
 !!! note
 
     By default, the SparseArrays.jl are implemented for efficiency by caching the
     symbolic factorization. I.e., if `set_A` is used, it is expected that the new
     `A` has the same sparsity pattern as the previous `A`. If this algorithm is to
     be used in a context where that assumption does not hold, set `reuse_symbolic=false`.
