Description

This PR enables the hybrid scan reader to still prune data pages after page header decode (save decompression and decode) using the row mask when offset index is not present.

Note that list column pages cannot be pruned in this fallback method as list rows may spill across page boundaries when offset index is absent.

📝 Walkthrough

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Added payload page pruning for Parquet files without page indexes by using decoded page headers.
    • Improved row-range filtering and page-mask generation for direct and chunked materialization.
    • Preserved list-column pages during page selection.
  • Bug Fixes

    • Reduced unnecessary decoding of unselected pages.
    • Improved handling of sparse page data and compressed payloads.
  • Tests

    • Added coverage for no-page-index payload materialization, page pruning, and row-count preservation.

Walkthrough

This change adds payload page pruning without Parquet offset indexes. The reader derives page masks from decoded headers, applies them to direct and chunked materialization, updates row-mask handling and sparse-page setup, and adds C++, Java, and Python regression coverage.

Changes

Hybrid scan filtering and payload pruning

Layer / File(s) Summary
Mutable row-mask contract and reader state
cpp/include/cudf/io/experimental/hybrid_scan*.hpp, cpp/src/io/parquet/experimental/hybrid_scan*.cpp, java/src/main/native/..., python/pylibcudf/...
Filter-column chunking now accepts mutable row-mask views. The reader caches normalized masks and clears them during reset.
Row-range selection utilities
cpp/src/io/parquet/experimental/page_index_filter*
The filtering utilities normalize null masks, compute selected row ranges with CUDA helpers, and build data-page masks.
Decoded-header page masks
cpp/src/io/parquet/experimental/hybrid_scan_impl.cpp, cpp/src/io/parquet/experimental/hybrid_scan_chunking.cu
Payload reads derive page masks from decoded headers when offset indexes are unavailable. Dictionary pages are excluded, and nested-column pages remain selected.
Scan wiring and regression validation
cpp/examples/..., cpp/tests/..., java/src/test/..., python/pylibcudf/tests/..., java/src/main/...
The supported scan instantiation is exported. Direct and chunked no-page-index payload pruning tests validate filtered row counts and values.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to 181cc

The new fallback enables page pruning without offset indexes, but the current implementation can use a row mask after its owning object is released and still has a page-selection contract violation that may produce incorrect scan results or runtime failures. Merge should wait until these issues are fixed or explicitly accepted.

This function is actually simpler than it looks. We are essentially doing the same thing as in _extended_metadata->compute_data_page_mask(). Here's the rundown:

Go over all pages and:

  • dict page: not needed since we want a data page mask.
  • data page of list col: push -1 to row_range_map meaning we will inject a true in the final mask for it. (See comment on L1272)
  • data page: first page in the chunk, push start row and end row, otherwise just push end row to page_row_offsets.

Call the compute_row_range_selection_mask to get a row rang mask and gather the final data page mask using it and the row_range_map

This helper is literally just moved version of code from LHS. See the big red block on lhs in compute_data_page_mask. We just call this helper from compute_data_page_mask. This is done so we can call this helper from compute_data_page_mask_with_page_headers() function you just saw above in hybrid_scan_impl.cpp

At line 587, keep stream.sync() only when page_mask->null_count() > 0, because only that branch performs an asynchronous host null-mask copy.

624-624: 🚀 Performance & Scalability | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Initialize _row_mask for sparse page input.

compute_data_page_mask_with_page_headers() reads _row_mask at Line 1499. The page_data overload in cpp/src/io/parquet/experimental/hybrid_scan_impl.cpp resets this member during prepare_materialization() and calls prepare_data() without assigning its row_mask parameter. Sparse scans without offset indexes therefore cannot prune payload pages from the supplied row mask.

Set _row_mask = row_mask before prepare_data() in that overload. Add a regression test for this path.

Proposed fix
   // Mark that we are using page-level I/O for payload columns
   _sparse_page_io = true;
+  _row_mask       = row_mask;

   prepare_data(read_mode::CHUNKED_READ, row_group_indices, page_data, {});

42-49: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Update the Java documentation for the new payload-pruning fallback. The API documentation should consistently state that payload materialization can use decoded page headers when no page index is available, while page-index setup remains required only where applicable to filter-column materialization. Also fix the helper Javadoc link in HybridScanReaderTest.java, which currently targets a nonexistent method.

Consider adding a list-column case to the no-offset-index fallback test.

This test covers fixed-width columns only. The fallback deliberately keeps every page of a column whose repetition level is greater than zero, because list rows can span page boundaries without an offset index. That branch has no test here.

A list-column payload read with a partially-true row mask, asserted against cudf::apply_boolean_mask on the written table, would lock in the "never prune nested pages" invariant. The test guidelines for cpp/**/*_test.cpp ask for edge-case coverage including nested types.

Use memoryview when slicing the parquet bytes.

simple_parquet_bytes[r.offset : r.offset + r.size] copies each byte range on the host before the device transfer. The other tests in this file wrap the source in memoryview(...) first and avoid the copy.

Consider adding boundary row-mask cases.

The test covers one half-selected row mask. Two boundary cases exercise distinct branches of the new header-based pruning path:

  • An all-true mask makes compute_row_range_selection_mask return an empty mask, so every page stays enabled.
  • An all-false mask triggers the are_all_rows_pruned early return before any page mask is computed.

Parametrizing num_selected over 0, num_rows // 2, and num_rows covers all three.

As per coding guidelines for python/**/*{test,tests}/**/*.py: "Missing edge case coverage (empty, all-null, single-element, mixed types)".

Confirm that non-contiguous page row ranges are intended.

page_row_offsets concatenates row ranges from every column chunk into one array. At each new chunk the code pushes page_start, which creates a range between the last page of the previous chunk and the first page of the new chunk. That range is never referenced by row_range_map, so its result is discarded. When the new chunk restarts at a lower row index, that range has start >= end, and search_fenwick_tree_functor returns false for it. Both cases appear harmless.

Add a short comment that records this invariant. A future change to row_range_map indexing would otherwise read a boundary range as a real page.

Hold a reference to row_mask for the chunked filter pipeline.

The C++ reader now caches a view of row_mask in _row_mask and reads it during later materialize_filter_columns_chunk calls. This method already keeps column_chunk_data alive in self._filter_chunk_data for the same reason, but it keeps no reference to row_mask. If a caller drops the Column after this call, the cached device pointer dangles.

Store the column next to _filter_chunk_data.

♻️ Proposed change
         self._stream = _get_stream(stream)
         self.mr = _get_memory_resource(mr)
         # keep reference to avoid use-after-free of device spans
         self._filter_chunk_data = column_chunk_data
+        # keep reference: the reader caches a view of the row mask across chunks
+        self._filter_row_mask = row_mask
 
         cdef mutable_column_view mask_view = row_mask.mutable_view()

Declare _filter_row_mask in the matching .pxd, and clear it where _filter_chunk_data is cleared in materialize_filter_columns_chunk.
