Review Change Stack

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The header now provides platform-specific omp_mutex_t implementations. OpenMP builds use the existing wrapper. Non-OpenMP builds use a movable, non-copyable wrapper backed by std::mutex.

Changes

Portable mutex implementation

Layer / File(s) Summary
Conditional mutex implementation
cpp/src/utilities/omp_helpers.hpp
The header conditionally includes <omp.h> or <mutex>. Non-OpenMP builds define movable omp_mutex_t with lock, unlock, and try_lock methods. The OpenMP section is explicitly closed with _OPENMP.

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 6fdfe

The fallback enables mutex use without OpenMP, but its standard locking behavior is not yet covered by targeted tests. Add the requested coverage or merge with explicit owner acceptance.

Add no-OpenMP unit coverage for omp_mutex_t.

Add a gtest that builds without OpenMP and exercises std::lock_guard, try_lock, and std::scoped_lock with omp_mutex_t. This validates the Lockable contract used by node_queue_t.

As per coding guidelines, “Add unit tests. Please refer to cpp/src/tests for examples of unit tests on C and C++ using gtest”.

OpenMP is required for running the solver.

Hi @nguidotti and thanks for the review!

We cannot use OpenMP on our internal monorepo at Google. cuOpt seem to build and run fine without OpenMP, as long as I apply this PR.

This file is the single place in the whole codebase that really assumes that the system supports OpenMP, so it's a relatively low-touch change. For me, personally, it would save me from re-applying this patch every time I sync to a new cuOpt release.

Hello @vitor1001,

Can you share which solver are you using? There are a few parts of the library that requires OpenMP to work correctly (concurrent mode for LP, the entire MIP solver). Also, there is some operations that is not supported by std::mutex ilke fetch_max/min for floats/doubles.

We don't use it in production, but I like cuOpt to be available for anyone that wants to experiment and/or benchmark with it. We had users that wanted to try both QP and MIP. MIP unit tests seem to pass without OpenMP.

I am surprised that the MIP unit tests passes without OpenMP since we use it quite extensively within the solver for parallelism. Even if it works, the performance will be quite bad as it was not written for single-threaded execution
