Summary

• fix np.linalg.pinv(..., rtol=None) for integer-dtype inputs
• compute the default tolerance from the promoted inexact linalg dtype instead of the original integer dtype
• add a regression test covering integer input with rtol=None

Testing

• python -m py_compile numpy/linalg/_linalg.py numpy/linalg/tests/test_linalg.py
• verified the patched pinv returns the same result as default pinv(a) for an int32 matrix

PR summary

Fix np.linalg.pinv(..., rtol=None) for integer-dtype inputs.

When rtol=None, pinv currently computes the default tolerance using
finfo(a.dtype).eps. That fails for integer arrays because finfo requires an
inexact dtype, so calls such as np.linalg.pinv(np.array([[1, 2], [3, 4]], dtype=np.int32), rtol=None)
raise ValueError.

This PR computes the default tolerance from the promoted inexact linalg dtype
instead, which matches the actual computation path used by pinv. A regression
test is included to verify that integer input with rtol=None behaves the same
as the default pinv(a) call.

Closes gh-30917.

First time committer introduction

I’m a NumPy user contributing this fix after noticing that np.linalg.pinv
fails on integer input when rtol=None. I traced the issue to the tolerance
calculation and put together a small fix with a regression test.
