Per review, the predicate now takes cpu_optimization_problem_t and mip_solver_settings_t directly instead of a pre-extracted var_types vector and a has_callbacks bool. This is what makes the generalized name honest: a new unsupported-feature rule can consult anything either object exposes without changing the signature, threading another argument through, or adding a branch at the call site. It also moves the get_variable_types_host() copy inside the predicate, so it is skipped entirely when no callbacks are registered -- the common case. The predicate is a template now, so it carries an explicit instantiation. Without one the test's translation unit cannot generate it from the declaration alone, and the symbol goes missing at link time. Tests updated to build real problem/settings objects rather than raw vectors, which also exercises the actual set_mip_callback() path. All 5 cases still pass.

**1 of 4** toward a CUDA-free client library (#1802, #1803, #1804 stack on this one). ## Why Talking to a remote `cuopt_grpc_server` currently requires the full GPU stack. `pip install cuopt` pulls `cudf`, `cupy-cuda13x[ctk]`, `rmm`, `pylibraft`, `numba-cuda`, `scipy`, `pandas` and `libcuopt` (which itself pulls `cuda-toolkit`) — GB-scale, onto a machine whose only job is to serialize protobuf over a socket. The motivating consumer is the MCP server in #1701: it imports exactly `Client`, `TlsConfig`, `DataModel`, `Read`, `SolverSettings` — **no `Solve`** — yet installs all of the above. That coupling is mostly accidental. The gRPC client sources are already GPU-free; what ties them to CUDA is that the host-side implementations they need are compiled into `.cu` translation units, so anything wanting them must link the CUDA library. **This PR only separates those**, so #1804 can place them in a `cuopt_client` library whose `NEEDED` list has no CUDA, rmm or raft. ## What Several classes are mostly host code but live entirely in `.cu` files, so anything needing their host-side members has to link the CUDA library. This separates them. | File | Size | CUDA-touching lines | |---|---|---| | `math_optimization/solver_settings.cu` → `.cpp` + `_gpu.cu` | 713 | **5** | | `mip_heuristics/solver_settings.cu` → `.cu` + `.cpp` | 58 | 3 | | `pdlp/solution_conversion.cu` → + `solution_conversion_cpu.cpp` | 225 | 23 | `math_optimization/solver_settings.cu` is the clearest case — 713 lines of parameter handling with 5 lines that touch a stream. ## The rule each split follows Host code moves to the `.cpp`; members taking an `rmm::cuda_stream_view` or returning a `device_uvector` stay in the `.cu`; **every member moved out of the original TU is instantiated explicitly**, because `template class` in the `.cpp` can only emit members whose definitions it can still see. ## Two traps this pattern sets — both hit during development **1. A moved member with no explicit instantiation silently disappears.** An earlier revision of this PR moved the 19-argument `solver_settings_t::set_pdlp_warm_start_data` into `solver_settings_gpu.cu` but instantiated only its five neighbours. The symbol vanished from `libcuopt.so`. It is the overload the Cython layer binds to, so **every `conda-python-tests` config, `docs-build` and `wheel-tests-cuopt-server` failed while every C++ job passed**. There is no compile or link error locally — the C++ build does not use that overload. The check that catches this class of bug in one shot: ```bash nm -D --defined-only libcuopt.so | awk '{print $3}' | sort -u > new.txt comm -23 main.txt new.txt | c++filt # anything here is a lost export ``` **2. Guarded instantiations can compile to nothing.** The instantiations sit behind `MIP_INSTANTIATE_*` / `PDLP_INSTANTIATE_*`, so each new file must include `mip_heuristics/mip_constants.hpp`. Without it the guards evaluate false and the TU compiles to **zero symbols** — no error, just a link failure much later. `nm --defined-only` on the object is how you spot it. ## Risk Moderate, not low — see above. The moved definitions are byte-identical and no build targets change here, so behaviour is unaffected; the risk is entirely in *symbol emission*, which the exported-symbol diff now covers. ## Testing - Full build + all 126 test binaries: 0 errors - Exported symbols diffed against `main`: **no losses** - `ctest`: 119/125. The 6 failures are missing downloaded datasets (`ci/test_cpp.sh` fetches them; I did not locally) — unmodified `main` fails the identical six in a clean worktree. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Authors: - Ramakrishna Prabhu (https://github.com/ramakrishnap-nv) Approvers: - Rajesh Gandham (https://github.com/rg20) - Trevor McKay (https://github.com/tmckayus) URL: #1801

The vtable rationale was restated in three places; it now lives once, in optimization_problem_interface.hpp where the virtual was removed, with short pointers elsewhere. Also removes the doxygen block left behind on cpu_optimization_problem.hpp when the declaration was deleted. Two consecutive /** */ blocks preceded write_to_mps(), so doxygen silently discarded the first -- the @param/@return/@throws documentation was already being lost from generated docs. The free function carries those docs. Fixes an inconsistent doc snippet that named the same variable two ways.

approving just the CMake changes (the look non-controversial) for ci-codeowners. I did not look at anything else in the PR.
to_optimization_problem()was a pure virtual onoptimization_problem_interface_t, so it occupied a slot in every implementer's vtable — includingcpu_optimization_problem_t, whose vtable then held an entry onlylibcuoptcan define.Vtable relocations resolve eagerly at load time, so this cannot be deferred or hidden behind lazy binding: any library carrying that vtable is unloadable without
libcuopt.so. That blocks the CUDA-free client library (#1804).It is now a free function declared in
optimization_problem.hpp, defined incpu_optimization_problem_to_gpu.cpp, dispatching on the concrete type:Semantics are unchanged — the GPU override was a one-line
return nullptr, so a GPU-backed problem still yieldsnullptr. Unrecognised implementations now throw instead of returningnullptr, since the documented fallbackstatic_casts the reference and would otherwise be UB. 5 call sites updated.Breaking: removes a pure virtual from an installed public header. Out-of-tree implementers should delete their override; callers switch to the free function as above.
2 of 4 toward a CUDA-free client library (#1801 merged, #1803, #1804 follow).
