Closes NVIDIA#1480. Uses notna() plus boolean-mask indexing on the frame's own Index, reducing DataFrame's per-cell mask with any(axis=1) first - entirely GPU-resident, no host round-trip. Matches pandas semantics exactly: empty frames, all-null frames, and non-default index labels all fall out of the same boolean-mask-then-length-check path without special-casing. Verified against a real cudf install (26.08.01, pip wheels from pypi.nvidia.com) on a real GPU: reproduced every example from pandas' own first_valid_index/last_valid_index docstrings directly against the installed package, then added 9 pytest cases comparing cudf output to real pandas output across Series and DataFrame, empty/all-null/custom- index cases - 9/9 passed. Confirmed the tests actually exercise the fix by reverting it and re-running: 9/9 failed with AttributeError, then passed again after restoring. Signed-off-by: Mohak Gupta <mohakgupta0981@gmail.com>

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to The new valid-index APIs are covered for common null, empty, and populated cases, but several supported input and boundary forms lack regression coverage. This creates a bounded risk of pandas-incompatible behavior for those forms and should be addressed before relying on the methods broadly.

Add the missing boundary cases.
The current matrix does not cover single-element inputs, mixed or nullable dtypes, a custom-index DataFrame, a zero-column DataFrame with a non-empty index, or CuPy/Numba-backed inputs. Add focused cases for these paths. Use per-case dtypes instead of forcing every non-empty Series case to float64.
As per coding guidelines, Python test files must cover empty, all-null, single-element, mixed-type, CuPy, and Numba inputs. As per PR objectives, custom-index cases are required for both Series and DataFrame.
Also applies to: 28-42

Description
Implements
Series.first_valid_index()/Series.last_valid_index()andthe same on
DataFrame, closing #1480 (open since 2019).A maintainer's comment on the issue explicitly left the door open to either
a Python-only implementation or a dedicated libcudf primitive ("I would be
happy to solve this with either a cuDF-python change or a small libcudf
function"), so this takes the Python route:
notna()plus boolean-maskindexing directly against the frame's own
Index. For aDataFrame, theper-cell mask is first reduced with
any(axis=1)(matching pandas' own_find_valid_index, which does the same 2D-to-1D reduction). Everythingstays column/GPU-resident - no
.values/host round-trip anywhere in thepath.
Empty frames, all-null frames, and non-default index labels all fall out
of the same "mask the index, check its length" logic without any special
casing, which is actually simpler than pandas' own implementation (which
needs an explicit early-return for the empty case).
Testing
Installed a real
cudfbuild (cudf-cu12==26.08.01, prebuilt wheelsfrom
pypi.nvidia.com) against a real GPU available in this environmentand verified end to end, not just read through:
first_valid_index/last_valid_indexdocstrings directly against the patched, installedpackage (matching values,
Noneresults on all-null/empty frames,correct labels on a non-default index).
test_first_last_valid_index.py(9 parametrized cases acrossSeries/DataFrame, covering nulls, all-null, no-nulls, empty, and acustom string index), asserting cudf's result equals real pandas'
result for the same input. Ran with
pytestagainst the same realinstall: 9 passed.
reran - all 9 failed with
AttributeError: ... has no attribute first_valid_index, then passed again after restoring it.dataframe/methods/test_head_tail.pyand bothtest_isna_notnull.pysuites against the patched file as a regressioncheck: 204 passed.
