@ZedongPeng this is initial code for the MPAX support. It doesn't work yet, hoping to continue it this week.

Hi @PTNobel , great work on this PR and thank you for taking it on! I’ve left a few questions, mostly because I’m not very familiar with CvypyLayer. Please feel free to dismiss any of them if they seem too naive.

if len(problem.parameters()) != len(parameters):
raise ValueError
P, c, A, data = extract_linops_as_csr(problem, solver, kwargs)
Pjax, cjax, Ajax = BCSR.from_scipy_sparse(P.reduced_mat), BCSR.from_scipy_sparse(c), BCSR.from_scipy_sparse(A.reduced_mat)

How often will the from_scipy_sparse method be called? Does it happen only when defining the layer, or every time during the training process?

Only when defining the layer!

vec = jnp.hstack(
list(itertools.chain(
(params[i].reshape(-1, order='F') for _, i in param_id_to_orig_order.items()),
(jnp.ones(1),)))) # TODO(PTNobel): Add batching

Yeah. Batch solving should be the key feature in this PR.

else:
raise ValueError('Invalid MPAX algorithm')
solver = alg(warm_start=self.warm_start, **options)
self.solver = jax.jit(solver.optimize)

Maybe we don't need reuse jit during the training process? since the size of the problems should be the same.

I don't follow, will JAX auto optimize problems of the same size?

self.solver = jax.jit(solver.optimize)
self.output_slices = output_slices

def jax_to_data(self, quad_obj_values, lin_obj_values, con_values): # TODO: Add broadcasting (will need jnp.tile to tile structures)

Which part of the model can be differentiated in CvxpyLayer? Matrix A, or vector b, c?
