🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win
Check the cub::DeviceReduce return status.
The three new helpers discard the cudaError_t returned by cub::DeviceReduce::Reduce and cub::DeviceReduce::Sum. A sizing or launch failure then stays silent, and the caller reads a stale reduction slot. The surrounding code checks similar calls, for example RAFT_CUDA_TRY(cub::DeviceSelect::Flagged(...)) in cpp/src/barrier/barrier.cu (line 450).
🔒 Proposed fix for `enqueue_sum_into` (apply the same pattern to the other two helpers)

Instead of implementing for each operation, why not just templatize the op or sending op as argument?
Also enqueue does not make sense here, you are already specifying the pointer to which the result should be written right?

This is cleaner. Thank you.
One additional suggestion: I think it might be better if this class just handled the async reductions. Rather than doing both the async reductions and the mathematics of how to combine elements.
I would leave the math in the code itself. So that the reader can see it. And just use this abstraction for pulling down everything at once.

Description
Reduces GPU/host synchronization overhead in the barrier LP/QP/SOCP solver's per-iteration termination-check computation.
Previously, computing residual norms, the barrier parameter
mu, and the primal/dual objectives at the start ofbarrier_solver_t::solveand at the end of every barrier iteration was split across three separate functions (compute_residual_norms,compute_mu,compute_primal_dual_objective), each of which read its GPU reduction/dot-product results back to the host individually via a blockingrmm::device_scalar::value(stream)— i.e. acudaMemcpyAsync+ full stream synchronize per value, several times per iteration.This PR fuses all three into a single
compute_residual_norms_mu_and_objective: every reduction/dot-product kernel now writes into its own slot of a shared device buffer (d_reduction_results_), and the host readback is a single batched copy + one stream sync at the end (h_reduction_results_, withd_reduce_temp_storage_as shared cub scratch space). New reusable primitives (enqueue_norm_inf_into,enqueue_sum_into,enqueue_max_into) invector_math.cuhsupport writing reductions into a caller-supplied slot/scratch buffer instead of allocating and blocking per call. The oldgpu_compute_residual_norms,compute_residual_norms,compute_mu, andcompute_primal_dual_objective(including their unusedCHECK_OBJECTIVE_GAPdebug path) are removed as dead code now that both call sites use the fused function.No behavior change to the solver's numerics — same reductions, same values, just fewer synchronization points. Benchmarked with no regression across LP, QP, QCQP, and SOCP problem classes.
