This improvement was discovered through Hiverge's automated exploration of changes to cuOpt's dual simplex solver and then isolated on top of the v9 row-equilibration and perturbation changes. The bound-flipping ratio test searches Harris buckets from the latest to the earliest so that it favors a longer dual step. Within the selected bucket, choose the candidate with the largest absolute pivot instead of the largest exact breakpoint ratio. Use the exact ratio only to break ties between equal pivots. The change recovers ex9 and neos-3988577-wolgan, which time out in v9, but introduces a timeout on irish-electricity after failed primal cleanup. The larger pivots reduce total BFRT zero steps by 22.8% and improve the aggregate benchmark despite that cleanup regression.

Inline comments:
In `@cpp/include/cuopt/mathematical_optimization/constants.h`:
- Line 218: Preserve the existing numeric value 4 for CUOPT_METHOD_UNSET in the
public constants, and assign CUOPT_METHOD_PRIMAL a different unused value so
previously compiled clients retain their behavior. If changing these values is
unavoidable, document the ABI break and add the required migration notes.
In `@cpp/src/dual_simplex/bound_flipping_ratio_test.cpp`:
- Line 344: Update the bucket-pass loop in
bound_flipping_ratio_test_t::compute_step_length to check settings_.time_limit
and settings_.concurrent_halt during each iteration, returning
RATIO_TEST_TIME_LIMIT or CONCURRENT_HALT_RETURN respectively. Preserve the
existing candidate scanning behavior when neither interruption condition is
active.
In `@cpp/src/dual_simplex/crossover.cpp`:
- Around line 1428-1429: Update the crossover cleanup flow around dual_settings
and the three cleanup calls so it preserves the caller’s
settings.iteration_limit instead of replacing it with
std::numeric_limits<i_t>::max(); ensure dual_phase2 and primal_phase2 continue
honoring the configured crossover iteration limit.
In `@cpp/src/dual_simplex/phase2.cpp`:
- Around line 3511-3516: Update the non-OPTIMAL branch after
primal_phase2_with_advanced_basis to preserve and propagate its terminal status
instead of falling through to prepare_optimality and dual_status_t::OPTIMAL.
Return the corresponding limit statuses (including TIME_LIMIT, WORK_LIMIT, and
ITERATION_LIMIT) and reject other non-optimal primal outcomes such as
PRIMAL_INFEASIBLE; retain the existing dual infeasibility check only as
applicable.
- Around line 3305-3308: In dual_phase2, initialize last_work_reported from
phase2_work_estimate without calling record_work_sync_on_horizon during phase-2
initialization. Preserve subsequent reporting so only phase-2 work deltas are
counted.
In `@cpp/src/dual_simplex/primal.cpp`:
- Around line 1054-1058: Fix the optimality-check branch around entering_index
and num_dual_inf so a counted but unpriceable dual infeasibility does not
execute the unchanged-state continue. Treat it like the tight-residual case by
allowing pricing_dual_tol to tighten and retry, and restructure the block so any
recovered entering_index exits the optimality check and proceeds to pivot
processing while preserving iteration and limit checks.
In `@cpp/src/dual_simplex/right_looking_lu.cpp`:
- Line 228: Update the work-estimate calculations at the loops around symbols or
expressions on lines 228, 259, 273, and 1298 to count the terminating scan entry
when the loop breaks before reaching its end. Add one conditionally when the
index is less than the corresponding end bound, while preserving the existing
count when the scan reaches the end normally.
In `@cpp/src/dual_simplex/scaling.cpp`:
- Line 263: Initialize row_norm with 0.0 instead of 1.0 so sub-unit row maxima
are recorded accurately. In the row norm min/max calculation, exclude zero-norm
rows, while retaining a scaling factor of 1.0 for those rows to avoid division
by zero.
In `@cpp/src/dual_simplex/simplex_solver_settings.hpp`:
- Line 208: Remove the unused unscaled_max_abs_obj_coeff setting and its lazy
write, or explicitly pass the value into phase-2 perturbation and make
initial_perturbation use it instead of recomputing from lp.objective. Do not add
mutable or retain a write whose value is never read.
In `@cpp/src/dual_simplex/solve.cpp`:
- Around line 73-75: Preserve WorkLimit across both status-conversion
boundaries: in cpp/src/dual_simplex/solve.cpp lines 73-75, map
primal_status_t::WORK_LIMIT to lp_status_t::WORK_LIMIT instead of treating it as
numerical issues; in cpp/src/pdlp/solve.cu lines 374-385, map
lp_status_t::WORK_LIMIT to the public WorkLimit termination status.
- Around line 365-367: Update the concurrent_halt assignment in the inside_mip
handling block so it occurs only when the solve status is conclusive, reusing
the same conclusive-status condition as run_dual_simplex. Keep the existing
debug log and null/settings guards, and do not set *settings.concurrent_halt for
NUMERICAL, WORK_LIMIT, ITERATION_LIMIT, or other non-conclusive statuses.

This PR include many improvements to primal and dual simplex. It also makes primal simplex a first class method for solving LPs.
It results in a 7.26% improvement in solve time and a 8.02% improvement in MIP gap (geomean over 240 MIPLIB benchmark problems with 300 second time limit on GH200). 5 more problems solve to optimality within the time limit, and the number of problems with feasible solutions remains the same.
On the 240 MIPLIB LP relaxations this PR is 1.44X faster (raw geomean) or 1.28X faster (geomean shifted by 1s). When compared with HiGHS the 1s shifted geomean is 0.99X (i.e. the solvers are equivalent).
On NETLIB primal simplex is about 2.3X slower than dual simplex. So while we enable primal simplex to be used to solve LPs, we don't recommend it.
We now give a brief description of the changes:

Primal Simplex:
Crossover
