Nice fix — the GPU-resident-to-MPS round trip is a reasonable way to reuse the existing distributed ctor. A few things before merging: no tests exercise this new branch on the 2-GPU runner, and the condition doesn't check use_distributed_pdlp independently like the MPS overload does.
Solving via DataModel/Solve builds the problem directly on the GPU; without the dispatch fix in NVIDIA#1958, use_distributed_pdlp and distributed_pdlp_partitioner are stored but have no effect there (MPS file based solves are unaffected). Document this until NVIDIA#1958 lands. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

So this makes the C API work? But only for problems that fit into memory on a single GPU?

Yes, this is just a quick fix so GAMS can start using it. I think a clean and proper fix for handling mGPU from C api would require more complex changes. We would need to start solving from an mps_data_model ans update all the APIs accordingly. I don't have the badwidth to do that now, but I can prioritize it if you think it is urgent

Exposes distributed (multi-GPU) PDLP settings on the Java side — a typed `DistributedPdlpPartitioner` enum and `setNumGpus`/`setUseDistributedPdlp`/`setDistributedPdlpPartitioner` convenience methods, mirroring `setMethod`/`setPDLPSolverMode`. The underlying C++ constants already flow through automatically via the generated `CuOptConstants` and the generic `setSetting`/`getSetting` passthrough. Like #1957, actually distributing a solve depends on the C API dispatch fix in #1958.

Looks good to me, but I am not an expert on the C API.

What's the extra test runtime cost of solving these three models versus solving smaller toy problems? What test coverage do we get by solving these larger benchmark problems?

these two files get solved in < 1s so the solve is essentially free. PDLP is such a big algorithm that I feel like two more instances could help us find hidden bugs that the single afiro wouldn't fire on.

184-194: 🎯 Functional Correctness | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick winCover an explicit positive multi-GPU count.
The C API test currently covers
num_gpus=1andnum_gpus=-1, but not a positive count above one. The-1case resolves to all visible GPUs, while an explicit count such as2remains a requested count and controls distributed partitioning and rank configuration. A regression that ignores or mishandles an explicit positive count can therefore pass the existing parity test.Add a valid positive multi-GPU solve to this parity case and assert success, optimal termination, and objective parity.
Suggested fix

ex10 is almost fully reduced during presolve (at least when using Papilo), so I do not think it is a good candidate for testing. Maybe take something larger (like seymour1)

This PR adds support for multiGPU PDLP to the C API.
Note that it requires that the problem fit into memory on a single GPU.
