- Around line 323-330: Update the direct_free_variables rebuild after remapping
cone_var_start to iterate through linear_variable_count(problem), not
problem.cone_var_start, so no-cone QPs scan all linear columns. Preserve the
no-cone cone_var_start sentinel and ensure eliminated accounting uses the
correctly rebuilt free-variable list.
In `@cpp/src/dual_simplex/scaling.cpp`:
- Around line 118-120: Update the automatic-skip logic in the scaling routine so
bound-magnitude imbalance is considered before returning unit column scales,
ensuring QP/SOCP inputs receive bound-magnitude pre-scaling even when A/Q ratios
are balanced. Preserve the intentional force-off behavior for
qcqp_ruiz_equilibration = 0, and keep the existing bound pre-scaling block’s
behavior unchanged.

Rebuild direct free variables over all linear columns.
For a QP without cones, linear_variable_count(problem) returns problem.num_cols, while cone_var_start remains 0. After eliminate_free_variables removes any eligible variable, the current rebuild loop runs zero times and drops every remaining free variable from direct_free_variables. A free variable skipped by q_present, for example, is then not marked as free by the barrier. The eliminated count also overstates the result because it subtracts the cleared list size.
Remapping column 0 to -1 does occur, but no-cone linear_variable_count, scaling, and barrier cone checks do not use that value as a column index. Preserve the no-cone sentinel and use the linear-column count for the rebuild:

Reject numerically small elimination pivots.
The elimination path runs before column scaling and rejects only exact-zero incident coefficients. A shorter pivot row can therefore contain an arbitrarily small nonzero pivot_coefficient. Each other incident row computes factor = a_ij / pivot_coefficient, and the same factor updates problem.rhs[i]. This can overflow or amplify roundoff in the reduced coefficients and RHS before the barrier receives the problem.
Add a configurable relative pivot threshold based on the largest incident coefficient. Reuse the established pivot-tolerance policy instead of hard-coding 0.01. Skip elimination when no incident coefficient meets the threshold.
