Multi partition cagra search#2035
Conversation
Introduces a globally-optimized path for searching across multiple CAGRA
index segments without per-segment device-to-host copies.
- c/include/cuvs/selection/select_k.h, c/src/selection/select_k.cpp:
new C API function cuvsSelectK that wraps cuvs::selection::select_k
for selecting the k smallest float values from a flat device array
- BufferedCagraSearch (internal interface): searchIntoBuffer() writes
per-segment CAGRA results into a slice of a caller-owned device buffer
without syncing the stream or copying to host
- CagraIndexImpl: implements BufferedCagraSearch; searchIntoBuffer()
computes byte offsets into the global buffer using segmentIdx * topK
- SelectKHelper: Panama FFI binding for cuvsSelectK
- MultiSegmentCagraSearch: orchestrates the full pipeline — queue all
per-segment searches, sync once, run cuvsSelectK on GPU, sync again,
single D2H copy, decode results
- MultiSegmentSearchResults: simple result carrier with count,
segmentIndices, ordinals, and distances arrays
Implements concurrent per-segment GPU search that eliminates per-segment
device-to-host copies and CPU blocking on workspace deallocation.
Key changes:
- CudaStreamPool: fixed-size pool of non-blocking CUDA streams (one
cuvsResources_t per slot). Segments are assigned to slots via
round-robin so searches on different slots run concurrently. Pool size
defaults to 8 and is overridden via the system property
com.nvidia.cuvs.streamPoolSize.
- MultiSegmentCagraSearch: single-query search across N index segments
using the stream pool. All per-segment CAGRA kernels write into a
shared device buffer (no per-segment D2H copy or stream sync). A
single cuvsSelectK call finds the global top-k entirely on GPU, then
one D2H copy transfers the results.
- BufferedCagraSearch / CagraIndexImpl: new searchIntoBuffer() method
that queues a CAGRA search kernel on a caller-supplied stream and
writes results at a given row offset into a pre-allocated device
buffer.
- cuvsRMMAsyncMemoryResourceEnable() (C API + Java bindings): switches
the current device memory resource to cuda_async_memory_resource so
that workspace deallocations issued by CAGRA's search plan destructor
are stream-ordered and non-blocking. Without this, cudaFree serializes
kernel launches across streams regardless of stream assignment,
nullifying the stream pool benefit.
CudaStreamPool was a static singleton shared across all threads. With
multiple concurrent query threads, calls to MultiSegmentCagraSearch.search()
would alias onto the same pool slots after Math.floorMod, causing concurrent
cudaEventRecord and cudaStreamWaitEvent calls on the same event handle
(undefined behavior) and cross-thread stream interference. Additionally,
CudaStreamPool.closeInstance() was called from CuVSResourcesImpl.close(),
so whichever thread closed its resources first would destroy the shared pool
while other threads were still using it.
Fix: make CudaStreamPool a per-CuVSResources instance rather than a static
singleton. One pool is created and owned by each CuVSResourcesImpl; it is
closed when that instance is closed. Since CuVSResources is thread-local in
the Lucene integration, each query thread gets its own independent set of
streams and events with no sharing or locking required.
- CudaStreamPool: remove static singleton (getOrCreate, closeInstance, static
volatile instance, static AtomicInteger slotCounter); add package-private
constructor; replace static slotCounter with an instance int and a new
nextSlot(int count) method.
- CuVSResourcesImpl: add final CudaStreamPool streamPool field (sized from
com.nvidia.cuvs.streamPoolSize system property); close it directly in
close(); add static getStreamPool(CuVSResources) helper for
MultiSegmentCagraSearch to retrieve the per-resources pool.
- MultiSegmentCagraSearch: get pool via CuVSResourcesImpl.getStreamPool
and advance via pool.nextSlot. Remove redundant cuvsStreamSync after
cuvsSelectK — the D2H copies are enqueued on the same stream so CUDA
ordering already serializes them. Replace three separate hostArena.allocate
calls with one contiguous allocation (Long.BYTES-aligned) sliced into three
typed views, reducing OS-level allocation overhead per query.
The persistent kernel runner was previously keyed on (dataset_desc, graph, fixed search params), which forced a destroy/recreate cycle for every segment when searching a multi-segment Lucene index: each segment has a different graph pointer and potentially a different auto-computed max_iterations, producing a different hash on every call. C++ changes (search_single_cta_kernel-inl.cuh): - Move dataset_desc_ptr, graph_ptr, and graph_degree from fixed runner state into per-job fields in job_desc_t. The persistent kernel reads them from the job descriptor, so one runner instance can serve any number of segments without being rebuilt. - Remove dataset_desc and graph arguments from persistent_runner_t constructor and calculate_parameter_hash; the runner is now keyed only on fixed kernel parameters (block_size, smem_size, itopk, etc.). - Update select_and_run to initialize the device descriptor on the caller's stream and synchronize before submission, then pass dd_dev_ptr, graph.data_handle(), and graph_degree to runner::launch. - Remove dd_host from persistent_runner_t; dataset upload is now the caller's responsibility on each launch. Java changes: - Add persistent, persistentLifetime, and persistentDeviceUsage fields, getters, and Builder methods to CagraSearchParams. - Wire the three persistent params through CuVSParamsHelper into the Panama-generated cuvsCagraSearchParams struct.
…raSearch In persistent mode, `searchIntoBuffer` blocks on the CPU until the GPU signals completion via a system-scope atomic. Previously, segments were searched sequentially, so the GPU processed one segment at a time per query, leaving its job queue mostly idle between segment dispatches. Submit one async task per pool slot so all slots' segment searches are in-flight simultaneously. The persistent runner's job queue can hold all N segment jobs at once, allowing GPU workers to execute segments in parallel (bounded by worker_queue_size). Segments are grouped by pool slot rather than submitted one-per-segment to prevent concurrent access to the same cuvsResources_t handle: the descriptor_cache stored inside the RAFT resources object is not thread-safe, and multiple threads calling cuvsCagraSearch with the same handle causes a SIGSEGV. Grouping ensures each cuvsResources_t is accessed by at most one thread at a time. Effective parallelism is min(numSegments, pool.size()); increasing cuvsStreamPoolSize raises the ceiling. In non-persistent mode the existing sequential loop is unchanged: kernel launches are asynchronous and return immediately, so Java-level parallelism adds overhead without benefit.

Multi-segment search (C++/C/Java): - Add search_multi_segment() C++ function: builds a single search plan sized for the largest segment, packs per-segment descriptors, and launches search_kernel_ms — a new SINGLE_CTA kernel with grid dimensions (1, num_queries, num_segments) so each CTA independently searches one (query, segment) pair in a single kernel call. - Add cuvsCagraSearchMultiSegment() C API wrapping the above. - Simplify MultiSegmentCagraSearch.java to call cuvsCagraSearchMultiSegment() unconditionally, removing the previous per-segment stream pool, thread pool, CUDA event synchronization, and persistent/non-persistent branching. The search now completes in four phases: multi-segment kernel, GPU-side select-k, single D2H copy, result decoding. - Add BufferedCagraSearch.getIndexHandle() to expose the raw cuvsCagraIndex_t handle needed by the multi-segment kernel dispatch. Workspace pool (C/Java): - Add cuvsResourcesSetWorkspacePool(): configures the per-resources temporary workspace as an uncapped RMM pool that grows without shrinking. After warmup, cuvsRMMAlloc/cuvsRMMFree hit the pool cache instead of calling cudaMallocAsync/cudaFreeAsync, eliminating CUDA context lock contention under concurrent query threads. - Route cuvsRMMAlloc/cuvsRMMFree through the workspace resource so Java- side output buffer allocations also benefit from the pool. - Expose setWorkspacePool() in the CuVSResources Java interface with implementations in CuVSResourcesImpl and SynchronizedCuVSResources. Refactoring (search_single_cta_kernel-inl.cuh): - Extract TopkVariant enum and select_topk_variant() helper, shared by search_kernel_config and search_kernel_config_ms, replacing duplicated if/else trees in both choose_itopk_and_mx_candidates() bodies. - Extract kernel_dispatch_params::compute() to centralize max_candidates and max_itopk computation shared by select_and_run and select_and_run_multi_segment. - Extract hashmap_element_count() static helper on the search struct, used by both set_params (single-segment) and run_multi_segment.
Add HALF(2) to the DataType enum and wire it through the Java layer so
callers can build and exchange float16 matrices without any Java-side
type conversion:
- CuVSMatrix.Builder: new addVector(short[]) overload; each element is
a raw IEEE 754 binary16 bit pattern held in a short
- LinkerHelper: add C_SHORT via canonicalLayouts("short")
- CuVSMatrixBaseImpl: map HALF → C_SHORT in valueLayoutFromType();
decode DLPack (kDLFloat, bits=16) → DataType.HALF in
dataTypeFromTensor()
- CuVSMatrixInternal: HALF maps to the same kDLFloat DLPack type code
as FLOAT; the bits field (16 vs 32) distinguishes them on the C side
- JDKProvider.MatrixBuilder: implement addVector(short[]) following the
same MemorySegment.ofArray pattern as the other overloads

Inline comments:
In `@c/include/cuvs/core/c_api.h`:
- Around line 229-240: The current implementation of
cuvsRMMAsyncMemoryResourceEnable stores cuda_async_memory_resource in a
thread_local async_mr and passes it to rmm::mr::set_current_device_resource(),
creating a lifetime mismatch vs the API doc that says the change is global;
change the implementation so the async memory resource is process-scoped (not
thread_local) by replacing thread_local async_mr with a static/process-global
instance (e.g., a static unique_ptr or static object) so it outlives the thread
and remains valid for rmm::mr::set_current_device_resource(), and ensure
cuvsRMMAsyncMemoryResourceEnable and any cleanup use that same process-global
symbol (cuda_async_memory_resource / async_mr) when setting or resetting the
current device resource; alternatively, if thread-local semantics are intended,
update the cuvsRMMAsyncMemoryResourceEnable documentation to state it only
affects the calling thread and keep async_mr thread_local.
In `@c/src/neighbors/cagra.cpp`:
- Around line 710-733: The loop currently casts every indices[i]->addr and
builds device views without validating each segment's types/devices; update the
loop that fills idx_vec, q_vec, n_vec, d_vec to perform the same per-segment
checks used in cuvsCagraSearch: assert indices[i] != nullptr and addr != 0
(already present), then verify indices[i]->dtype.code == kDLFloat &&
indices[i]->dtype.bits == 32 for every i, and validate that queries[i],
neighbors[i], and distances[i] are device-backed DLPack tensors with the
expected element types (float for queries/distances, uint32 for neighbors)
before calling reinterpret_cast<const IndexT*>(indices[i]->addr) and
cuvs::core::from_dlpack to populate q_vec[i], n_vec[i], d_vec[i]; replace the
blind casts with RAFT_EXPECTS that include i in the error messages so a bad
segment fails fast and clearly.
- Around line 726-736: The loop that builds idx_vec/q_vec/n_vec/d_vec must also
validate that all segment indices use the same distance metric as the first
segment to prevent mixing incompatible metrics; inside the for-loop in cagra.cpp
(after the existing RAFT_EXPECTS that checks indices[i] non-null) compare
indices[i]->metric (or the actual metric field name on your IndexT struct/class)
to indices[0]->metric and fail fast with RAFT_EXPECTS (or equivalent) and a
clear message like "Mixed distance metrics across segments: expected %s but got
%s at segment %u"; keep this check before pushing idx_vec[i] and before calling
cuvs::neighbors::cagra::search_multi_segment so the function only runs when all
segments share the same metric.
In `@c/src/selection/select_k.cpp`:
- Around line 14-40: cuvsSelectK dereferences shape[1] and casts buffers without
validating the DLPack tensors; add explicit validation at the top of cuvsSelectK
for in_val, out_val, out_idx (non-null), then check each
DLManagedTensor->dl_tensor for expected ndim (==2), shapes (rows match expected
1 or compatible), dtype (in_val/out_val float32, out_idx int64), device type
(CUDA) and device id, byte_offset == 0, and contiguous row-major
strides/compatibility before creating device views with
raft::make_device_matrix_view; if any check fails return an appropriate
cuvsError_t (or throw inside translate_exceptions) instead of proceeding to
casts and calling cuvs::selection::select_k so malformed callers cannot crash or
corrupt memory.
In `@cpp/include/cuvs/neighbors/cagra.hpp`:
- Around line 1752-1806: Add Doxygen documentation for each overloaded
search_multi_segment declaration so they appear in generated API docs; either
add brief doxygen blocks above each overload or use `@copydoc` to reference the
primary search_multi_segment doc block (e.g., use `@copydoc`
search_multi_segment(raft::resources const&,
cuvs::neighbors::cagra::search_params const&, const std::vector<const
cuvs::neighbors::cagra::index<float, uint32_t>*>&, const
std::vector<raft::device_matrix_view<const float, int64_t, raft::row_major>>&,
const std::vector<raft::device_matrix_view<int64_t, int64_t, raft::row_major>>&,
const std::vector<raft::device_matrix_view<float, int64_t, raft::row_major>>&))
for the overloads with half/int8_t/uint8_t and uint32_t/int64_t neighbor types
so each signature (the overloads of search_multi_segment) is documented.
- Around line 1744-1806: The header declares the template parameter order as <T,
OutputIdxT, IdxT> but the instantiation macro (used with <T, IdxT, OutputIdxT>
e.g. (data_t, uint32_t, int64_t)) expects <T, IdxT, OutputIdxT>, causing the
IdxT/OutputIdxT swap that trips the static_assert in cagra_search.cuh:276 and
breaks link-time overloads for int64_t; fix by changing the template parameter
order in the search_multi_segment declarations to <T, IdxT, OutputIdxT> (or
alternatively update the instantiation macro to match the declared order) so
types map correctly, and add missing Doxygen for overloads 2–8 by inserting a
`@copydoc` search_multi_segment (or equivalent documentation block) above each of
those overloaded search_multi_segment declarations to satisfy the public API
docs requirement.
In `@cpp/src/neighbors/cagra.cuh`:
- Around line 409-420: The wrapper search_multi_segment currently forwards
indices, queries, neighbors, and distances without validation; add the same
upfront shape checks used by search() before calling
cagra::detail::search_multi_segment: verify indices.size() == queries.size() ==
neighbors.size() == distances.size(), then for each segment i ensure
queries[i].n_rows == neighbors[i].n_rows, neighbors[i].n_cols ==
distances[i].n_cols (k matches), queries[i].n_cols equals the index dimension
for indices[i] (or indices[i]->dim() / appropriate accessor), and that k > 0 and
dims are consistent; if any check fails, return/throw a clear error (or use
RAFT/CUASSERT used elsewhere) rather than forwarding to the detail
implementation.
In `@java/cuvs-java/src/main/java/com/nvidia/cuvs/CuVSResources.java`:
- Around line 60-76: The Java API should validate workspace pool sizes before
calling native code: update the Javadoc for setWorkspacePool to state the valid
range is > 0, and in the implementation of setWorkspacePool (the method that
currently invokes the native cuvsResourcesSetWorkspacePool) add a check that
rejects non-positive values (<= 0) by throwing an appropriate Java exception
(e.g., IllegalArgumentException) with a clear message; only call
cuvsResourcesSetWorkspacePool when the value is positive to avoid
signed->unsigned wraparound in native size_t.
In `@java/cuvs-java/src/main/java/com/nvidia/cuvs/MultiSegmentSearchResults.java`:
- Around line 24-27: MultiSegmentSearchResults currently stores native uint32
ordinals in an int[] (field ordinals) which corrupts values > Integer.MAX_VALUE;
change ordinals from int[] to long[] (and any constructor/getter signatures) and
ensure code that decodes native uint32_t values writes unsigned values into the
long (e.g., value & 0xFFFFFFFFL) so ordinals remain non-negative; update any
consumers (notably MultiSegmentCagraSearch) to compare against a long sentinel
(e.g., -1L) or otherwise handle long ordinals instead of treating negative ints
as sentinels.
In `@java/cuvs-java/src/main/java/com/nvidia/cuvs/SynchronizedCuVSResources.java`:
- Around line 43-46: The setWorkspacePool method in SynchronizedCuVSResources is
not using the shared lock and must be serialized like access(); modify
setWorkspacePool to acquire the same lock used by access() (e.g., wrap the call
to inner.setWorkspacePool(sizeBytes) in the synchronized block or lock guard
used by access()) so that mutations to workspace pool are protected by the same
synchronization as access().
In `@java/cuvs-java/src/main/java22/com/nvidia/cuvs/internal/CagraIndexImpl.java`:
- Around line 391-396: The offset calculation uses segmentIdx * topK
(neighborByteOffset/distanceByteOffset) but the code builds tensors with shape
{numQueries, topK} (numQueries from queryVectors.size()), so when numQueries > 1
the buffer offsets are wrong; either enforce single-query by adding a guard (if
(numQueries != 1) throw new IllegalArgumentException(...)) near where numQueries
is computed (queryVectors) or update the offsets to multiply by numQueries
(neighborByteOffset = segmentIdx * numQueries * topK * C_INT_BYTE_SIZE and
distanceByteOffset = segmentIdx * numQueries * topK * Float.BYTES) before
creating neighborSlice/distanceSlice (globalNeighborsDP/globalDistancesDP).
In `@java/cuvs-java/src/main/java22/com/nvidia/cuvs/internal/CudaStreamPool.java`:
- Around line 115-119: Make nextSlot atomic and wrap the returned slot index by
changing slotCounter to an AtomicInteger and using an atomic get-and-add plus
modulo; specifically, replace the non-atomic increment in nextSlot with
something like int start = slotCounter.getAndAdd(count); then return
Math.floorMod(start, poolSize) (or equivalent using your pool size field) so the
operation is thread-safe and the returned slot is bounded by the pool size.
- Around line 125-131: In CudaStreamPool.close(), wrap the cuvsResourcesDestroy
call with the same error validation used elsewhere by replacing the raw
cuvsResourcesDestroy(resources[i]) invocation with a call to
checkCuVSError(cuvsResourcesDestroy(resources[i]), "cuvsResourcesDestroy") so
cleanup failures are logged/handled; keep the surrounding loop and existing
calls to checkCudaError(cudaEventDestroy(events[i]), "cudaEventDestroy") and
checkCudaError(cudaStreamDestroy(streams[i]), "cudaStreamDestroy") unchanged and
reference the close(), cuvsResourcesDestroy, checkCuVSError, events, resources,
streams, and size symbols to locate the change.
- Around line 59-85: The constructor CudaStreamPool currently leaks native
handles if a create call fails mid-loop; modify the CudaStreamPool(int size)
constructor to perform rollback cleanup on failure by tracking the current index
and, if any checkCudaError/checkCuVSError throws, iterating over
already-initialized entries in resources[], streams[], and events[] to call the
corresponding destroy functions (cudaStreamDestroy for streams[],
cudaEventDestroy for events[], and the cuvs resources destroy routine for
resources[]) before rethrowing the exception; implement this by wrapping the
allocation loop in try/catch (or try/finally with a success flag) and invoking
the same cleanup logic as close() for indices < currentIndex so no native
handles are leaked if construction aborts.
In
`@java/cuvs-java/src/main/java22/com/nvidia/cuvs/internal/CuVSResourcesImpl.java`:
- Around line 31-33: The CudaStreamPool is currently allocated in the field
initializer (streamPool) which can leak native resources if
CuVSResourcesImpl(Path) throws before construction completes; move creation of
the CudaStreamPool from the field initializer into the CuVSResourcesImpl(Path)
constructor (use Integer.getInteger(CudaStreamPool.SIZE_PROPERTY,
CudaStreamPool.DEFAULT_SIZE) to determine size), assign it to the streamPool
field there, and in the constructor failure path ensure you call
streamPool.close() (or otherwise tear it down) before rethrowing so native
resources are not leaked; keep the streamPool field declaration but initialize
it only in the constructor and ensure close() is reachable on exceptions.
In `@java/cuvs-java/src/main/java22/com/nvidia/cuvs/MultiSegmentCagraSearch.java`:
- Around line 119-145: The code must enforce the single-query contract or size
outputs from the actual query row count: in MultiSegmentCagraSearch, after
obtaining var queryVectors = (CuVSMatrixInternal)
queries.get(i).getQueryVectors(), read its row count (e.g.,
queryVectors.getRowCount()/numRows()/size(0) — use the actual accessor on
CuVSMatrixInternal) into int nq; if nq > 1 throw an IllegalArgumentException
rejecting multi-row queries, or alternatively set segShape = new long[] {nq, k}
and compute neighbor/distance byte offsets and tensor sizes using nq*k (update
nByteOffset/dByteOffset and prepareTensor calls for
neighborsArray/distancesArray accordingly) so prepareTensor and the
globalNeighborsDP/globalDistancesDP slices match the query row count.
- Around line 96-111: The code in MultiSegmentCagraSearch currently uses
CagraSearchParams built from queries.get(0) (via
CuVSParamsHelper.buildCagraSearchParams) and thus drops per-segment settings
from subsequent CagraQuery entries; fix by either validating that all CagraQuery
instances in queries have identical search params and no per-segment filters
(throw IllegalArgumentException from MultiSegmentCagraSearch if any CagraQuery
differs from queries.get(0)), or plumb per-segment parameters through the native
call: extend the native wrapper (the cuvsCagraSearchMultiSegment binding) and
CuVSParamsHelper to accept/allocate an array of CagraSearchParams (build one
MemorySegment per CagraQuery) and pass that array/handle when invoking the
multi-segment search so each segment’s filters/params are applied.

Just to align on nomenclature a bit, I wonder if we can think of a more general name. Maybe "Partition"? Segment is pretty closely coupled to databases, and more specifically to LSM-based databases, but cuVS the library is more general that that. cuVS is at the level of "hash partitioning" or "blind sharding" (those are the terms we tend to use in this context). I think "MultiPartition" would be a more fitting name.

Aligning to "partition" for now. FYI, also considered: "MultiShard", "MultiIndex", "Federated", but these might come with unintended connotations.

Oh this is great. I was just working on code examples for the new docs and realized we only have a C++ API for select_k. It'll be great to get the C APis, and later on the Python and other language wrappers for select-k.
There was a problem hiding this comment.
With the refactoring prompted by your other comment, select-k is no longer needed for this work. Leaving the C API intact in case it might be useful to others.
These tests search a 4-vector dataset with the default search params. The default CAGRA search algo (AUTO) resolves to MULTI_CTA when max_queries is small relative to the SM count (the common case), and MULTI_CTA fails to settle all neighbors on such a pathologically small dataset, returning invalid (-1 / FLT_MAX) entries in the top-k and breaking the exact-match assertions. AUTO is the correct default for real workloads, so leave the library default unchanged and instead pin algo=SINGLE_CTA in the tests that rely on the tiny hand-crafted dataset. Larger/randomized-dataset tests keep AUTO. CagraAceBuildAndSearchIT and TieredIndexIT use the same small data but build graphs that MULTI_CTA handles correctly, so they are left on AUTO.

@jamxia155, this is a great extension. Multi-partition CAGRA search is a useful capability, and the implementation work here is substantial. Currently the single-index and multi-partition search paths are exposed as separate APIs: callers pass either a single Is the plan to keep this public API shape long term, or is this intended as an interim step until a multi-partition/partitioned index abstraction is introduced? For example, an index object carrying partition metadata could let search dispatch internally based on the index representation and avoid making callers choose between APIs. If the multi-partition API remains separate, should |

The regular single-index path chunks the query set by max_queries before invoking the search plan. The multi-partition path appears to use the full query count directly for workspace allocation and kernel launch. Is that intentional? Should max_queries also bound the per-launch query count here, given that some workspaces scale with num_queries * num_partitions?

This was an oversight. Added the chunking mechanism to align with existing practice. Thanks.

Should we validate that all partitions have the same metric here? The final select_k direction is chosen from indices[0]->metric(), so mixed metrics would not be ordered correctly.

The implementation appears to support different graph degrees across partitions by sizing the plan with max_graph_degree and passing each partition's actual graph_degree to the kernel. Do we have a test covering mixed graph degrees? The current multi-partition tests seem to build all partitions with the same graph degree.
Given that shared-memory/layout sizing is driven by the maximum graph degree, mixed graph degrees may also be suboptimal for performance. If this is not a required use case, should we reject mixed graph degrees explicitly and document that all partitions should use the same degree?

Added validation for uniform graph degree. Also added a note to the public header stating the requirements:
All index partitions must use the same distance metric and graph degree; partition sizes may differ.
Hi @anaruse, thank you for your comments. There has been a discussion on API design here but it's probably been buried by all the updates since. The current consensus is to provide this feature quickly to satisfy customer needs while allowing ourselves some more time to think through the appropriate long-term abstraction to unify these search functions. Re: Will address your other comments and update. |
…partition_bitset_filter Multi-partition CAGRA search previously required callers to build a `multi_partition_bitset_filter` carrying the concatenated bitset plus a device array of per-partition bit offsets. Since the offsets are a pure function of the per-partition index sizes, they can be recomputed inside the search instead of transported across the API. Core change: - Delete `multi_partition_bitset_filter` and `FilterType::MultiPartitionBitset`. Multi-partition filtering now flows through the plain `bitset_filter` (the combined, 64-bit word-aligned bitset), matching the single-partition path and its JIT tag/fragment. - Recompute each partition's starting bit offset host-side (word-aligned prefix sum of index sizes) in `search_multi_partition`, carry it in `multi_partition_desc_t::bit_offset`, and add it ONLY at the bitset filter test in `search_core` (via `bit_offset + to_source_index(...)`) — never to the output/traversal index. Guarded by a single size-consistency check. - Delete the now-unused MP fragment path: `sample_filter_mp_bitset_impl`, `mp_bitset_filter_data_t`, `mp_cagra_bitset`, `extract_cagra_mp_sample_filter`, `is_mp_bitset_filter`, and `tag_filter_mp_bitset`. C API: - The multi-partition search now takes a `BITSET` filter (addr = the combined bitset DLPack tensor); the `MULTI_PARTITION_BITSET` enum value and `cuvsMultiPartitionBitsetFilter` struct are removed. Total bits and offsets are no longer passed. cuvs-java: - `FilterBitsetHandle.create` / `CuVSProvider.newFilterBitsetHandle` take only the combined bitset words; `MultiPartitionCagraSearchImpl` populates a BITSET `cuvsFilter`. - Import the CUDA runtime symbols in `GPUInfoProviderImpl` from the leaf jextract binding class so they resolve regardless of how regeneration splits symbols. Tests (C++, C, and the Java IT) updated to pack the combined bitset with word-aligned per-partition slices. Validated across SINGLE_CTA/MULTI_CTA/AUTO, filtered and unfiltered, all data types.

… C-API cuvsCagraSearchMultiPartition previously hardcoded float32 indices and uint32 neighbors, casting every partition to index<float, uint32_t> after checking only indices[0]. It now dispatches at runtime on the index element dtype (float32/float16/int8/uint8) and the neighbor output dtype (uint32/int64) into a templated helper, matching the dispatch pattern and dtype coverage of the single-index cuvsCagraSearch. The C ABI is unchanged; dtypes continue to travel via the DLPack tensors. Every partition is now validated to be non-null, built, and of the common index dtype before the cast, and the header docs are corrected accordingly. Adds a multi-partition int64-neighbor test for parity with single-partition coverage.

The decode loop treated any neighbor with the top bit set (neighbor < 0) as the unfilled-slot sentinel, silently dropping valid uint32 ordinals in [2^31, 2^32-2]. Match only the true 0xFFFFFFFF sentinel, and fail fast if a valid ordinal exceeds Integer.MAX_VALUE rather than returning a negative value that could cause out-of-bounds indexing downstream.
search_multi_partition passed the full query count to the kernels, whose grid.y is bounded by maxGridSize[1], and sized the intermediate workspaces to num_queries * num_partitions. Loop over max_queries-sized chunks (as the single-index path does): keep grid.y within the limit, bound peak workspace memory to one chunk, and offset the filter per chunk. Also guard the query- norm reduction on CosineExpanded. Add a small-max_queries multi-partition test to exercise the chunk loop, partial final chunk, and per-chunk filter offset.
Multi-partition search derives the shared plan descriptor (and its shared-memory/layout sizing) and the cross-partition select_k direction from indices[0], so partitions with a differing metric or graph degree would be searched or merged incorrectly. Validate both up front, document the constraints in the public header, and add rejection tests. Dataset sizes may still differ (e.g. skewed splits).

This PR adds a CAGRA search API and associated implementation for batching workloads involving a single query and multiple indexes (e.g. index segments built from one dataset by cuvs-lucene). This promotes GPU utilization for non-batched queries by parallelizing work over multiple CTAs, while minimizing the number of concurrent kernels for potential host-side parallelism.
Addresses cuvs-lucene issue 124, issue 158, issue 159, and cuvs issue 2166.
