C API operations now handle missing resource and index handles safely, returning errors or exiting without invalid access.
Tensor inputs receive more consistent validation, including checks for dimensions, shapes, sizes, data pointers, and slice bounds. A public validation option is also available for checking tensor structure before use.
Matrix copying now checks tensor layout requirements, and sample weights must match the input row count.
Invalid tensor metadata and unsupported row-slice ranges are rejected before processing.
The C API adds DLPack tensor validation and null-handle checks across core, clustering, distance, neighbor, preprocessing, and selection operations. Tests and examples now zero-initialize DLPack tensor descriptors. Core tests cover malformed tensors and row slicing.
Changes: C API validation
Layer / File(s)
Summary
DLPack validation and core matrix APIs c/src/core/detail/interop.hpp, c/src/core/interop.hpp, c/src/core/c_api.cpp, c/tests/core/interop.cu
A shared validator checks DLPack tensor structure and is used by conversion and core matrix operations. Matrix copies check tensor layout, and row slicing checks tensor rank and row bounds. Tests cover malformed tensors and row slicing.
K-means host input and sample weights use DLPack views, with a length check for sample weights. Multi-GPU host tensor validation uses the shared validator. Clustering wrappers validate input rank, and resource handles are checked.
Resource checks in distance and preprocessing APIs c/src/distance/pairwise_distance.cpp, c/src/preprocessing/*, c/src/selection/select_k.cpp
Distance, PCA, quantization, and selection operations reject null resource handles before using them.
Neighbor API handle and dataset checks c/src/neighbors/*
Neighbor operations add null resource checks. Selected build paths validate dataset rank, and index destruction paths return when the index pointer is null.
DLPack descriptor initialization in tests and examples c/tests/distance/*, c/tests/neighbors/*, examples/c/src/*
C tests and examples value-initialize DLPack tensor descriptors before assigning their fields.
This PR hardens the C API against null handles and malformed tensors. Two narrow gaps remain: a null indices tensor passed to the all-neighbors build can still crash, and an uninitialized destination passed to the row-slice function can cause an invalid free. Both only affect incorrect API use, so the PR is mergeable once the owner is aware of them.

cuvsMatrixSliceRows does not initialize dst.strides for a 1D source or an unstrided 2D source.
The function writes dst.strides only for a 2D strided source. If the caller passes an uninitialized dst_managed, dst.strides holds garbage. cuvsMatrixDestroy then calls delete[] on that value. The new test uses zero-initialized dst, so it does not detect this. This behavior existed before the change. I recommend setting dst.strides = nullptr and dst.byte_offset = 0 at the start of the slice. This is low effort and prevents an invalid delete[].

Review comments at @c/src/cluster/kmeans.cpp:
- Around line 53-60: Validate X in the public cuvsKMeansFit, cuvsKMeansPredict,
and cuvsKMeansClusterCost entrypoints before accessing X->dl_tensor. Use the
existing DLPack tensor validation mechanism within each entrypoint’s
exception-translation scope, preserving the remaining flow.
Review comments at @c/src/neighbors/all_neighbors.cpp:
- Line 139: Validate dataset_tensor in cuvsAllNeighborsBuild before any dataset
access or host/device dispatch, so a null tensor returns CUVS_ERROR rather than
being dereferenced; keep _build_host and the device check from serving as the
only validation points.
Review comments at @c/src/neighbors/ivf_flat.cpp:
- Line 57: Move dataset_tensor validation into the public cuvsIvfFlatBuild
entrypoint, before it reads the tensor’s dtype or updates the index; ensure a
null tensor is rejected before any dereference, and avoid relying on validation
inside _build.
Review comments at @c/src/neighbors/ivf_pq.cpp:
- Line 63: In cuvsIvfPqBuild, validate dataset_tensor before any dereference,
including the read before the IVF-PQ build dispatch, so a null tensor returns an
error instead of crashing; preserve the existing tensor validation behavior.
Review comments at @c/src/neighbors/mg_cagra.cpp:
- Line 197: Update cuvsMultiGpuCagraBuild to check dataset_tensor for null
before its first dereference, returning an error for null input; then run
validate_dlpack_tensor on non-null input before continuing to _mg_build.

Check indices_tensor before reading its dtype.
When indices_tensor is null, ensure_indices_dtype(indices_tensor) dereferences it and can crash the caller process. Validate this required tensor before the dtype check. (raw.githubusercontent.com)
