From 1cdc1f84738859464e8c6413fdfe4232596687ae Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Rajesh Gandham Date: Thu, 17 Sep 2026 22:02:33 -0700 Subject: [PATCH 01/12] Add Curtis-Reid prescaling for PDLP, default-on (CR -> Ruiz -> Pock-Chambolle, 10 iterations) Adds a log-domain least-squares prescaling pass (A. R. Curtis, J. K. Reid, "On the Automatic Scaling of Matrices for Gaussian Elimination", IMA J. Applied Mathematics, 1972; also IIASA Collaborative Paper CP-81-037, https://pure.iiasa.ac.at/id/eprint/1766/7/CP-81-037.pdf) that runs before the existing Ruiz/Pock-Chambolle scaling in initial_scaling.cu. Sequence and iteration count are inspired by the HPR-LP-C codebase (https://github.com/PolyU-IOR/HPR-LP-C, src/solver/scaling.cu). pdlp_hyper_params_t::do_curtis_reid_scaling defaults to true and number_of_curtis_reid_iterations to 10, based on a wide benchmark sweep. Skipped entirely under MIP for now (cuOpt's MIP path intentionally does row-only scaling; Curtis-Reid's integer-variable neutralization would need its own fix to compose correctly with column scaling there) and never exposed to distributed/multi-GPU PDLP (no cross-shard-coherent version implemented). Re-baselines pdlp_class.initial_solution_test's hardcoded golden step-size/primal-weight reference values for afiro, which were computed under the old Ruiz/Pock-Chambolle-only scaling.

For f_t=float, 1e-300 underflows to exactly 0.0f, so the floor was a no-op: an explicitly-stored zero coefficient (present in the CSR with value 0.0, not simply absent) reached raft::log(0.0f) = -inf, producing non-finite log-domain scale factors. Fixes both occurrences to std::numeric_limits::min(), which is representable and nonzero at any precision. Adds pdlp_class.curtis_reid_scaling_explicit_zero_coefficient_float, which constructs a minimal float-precision problem with an explicit zero coefficient and checks curtis_reid_scaling()'s pre-fold log-domain values stay finite (checking only the final, post-clamp cumulative scale factors would not have caught this: the exp+clamp fold happens to absorb -inf/NaN before it reaches them). Verified the test fails with the original 1e-300 floor and passes with the fix.

CI test builds compile with -DASSERT_MODE (assertions enabled); our local dev build didn't, so this went undetected until it hit that CI runner. Go through pdlp_solver_t instead (iteration_limit=0), matching the existing pattern at pdlp_test.cu:4684 -- it builds a real pdhg_solver_t and wires a valid pointer into the scaling strategy for us, and exposes it via get_initial_scaling_strategy() for the same finiteness checks. Verified locally by rebuilding with `-a` (DEFINE_ASSERT) and confirming the test now passes instead of aborting; pdlp_class.* matches the established 16-failure baseline with no new failures.
