Rationale for this change

This is from a bug in PLAIN encoding with BooleanArray input. Boolean will introduce bad length when writing arrow data.

This interface is not widely used.

What changes are included in this PR?

Rewrite PLAIN boolean encoder to use TypedBufferBuilder instead of an incorrect hand-baked implementation.

Are these changes tested?

Yes

Are there any user-facing changes?

No.

shouldn't this be n_valid?

I was referring to the entire value passed into sink_.UnsafeAdvance

This seems like it was incorrect even for all present values because we are advancing the Byte buffer by number of values (in this case these would be number of bits) and not number bytes. So we would be overadvancing in both cases?

(i.e. we seem to be advancing by more bytes then are being reserved in both cases)

Yes, the logic here is confusing, but it's right after my change. When input k boolean values.

  1. sink_.Reserve will only reserve bytes for bits (k).
  2. sink_.UnsafeAdvance will advance k bytes.

However, when used, sink_.length() will only be regarded as bits. So (2) has a bug, but it works here...

I'd like to fix the bug first, and take time to optimize the code later.

In that case we need to be reserving k bytes and not k/8. I think this wasn't caught sooner because columnwriter appears to have a specialization for Boolean values that bypasses this method (e.g. I don't think anything but encoder tests will fail if you put throw exception(....) in this method in general.

General question, is this code path actually used in practice? (should we just delete the code)?

We use parquet boolean type to store bool value. And this is exposed in python for a long time. So I think: 1. Boolean type is not widely used, otherwise it would be found earier 2. However, I think there're someone using it. So I think we'd better fix this

this line also seems problematic if this method is called multiple times with in a row with boolean arrays (not sure actual code does this though).

You're right. This would not produce bug if PutArrow is not mixed with PutImpl, but will make Boolean leaves a larger space than expected

You mentioned this below, using sink_.length() to store the actual values seems wrong.

Yes, I think we got lucky here because I think the python/c++ column writer code calls PutSpaced

Thats lucky! Maybe I'll just fix like this and add some comments

Thanks for your patience. Conbench analyzed the 3 benchmarking runs that have been run so far on PR commit 1a45056.

None of the specified runs had any associated benchmark results.

The full Conbench report has more details. It also includes information about possible false positives for unstable benchmarks that are known to sometimes produce them.

^ Sorry, this is a mistake. There were C++ benchmark results, but they were suppressed because we typically only report on Python and R benchmark results. You can see the results by clicking through to the report. I'll fix this bug soon.

I'd rather not suffer a potentially significant performance regression here. Ideally, writing a boolean Arrow array would go through this function (I'm not sure why it doesn't).

Sure I'll rewrite it :-)

But I wonder that how can we optimize PutSpaced. Should we just regard it as before?

For now, yes, but it could perhaps be improved if it's often used.

I've changed to bit_writer_.PutValue try to make non-spaced Put faster. Though it would still slower than CopyBitmap, but I think it's right...

Because PutImpl already uses sink. And I think TypedBufferBuilder<bool> is as slow as current implemention.

pitrou commented Aug 10, 2023

TypedBufferBuilder<bool> uses CopyBitmap internally, so it should be faster. It should also help automate some of the bookkeeping you're doing by hand.

/// \brief Append bits from a packed bitmap
void UnsafeAppend(const uint8_t* bitmap, int64_t offset, int64_t num_elements) {
if (num_elements == 0) return;
internal::CopyBitmap(bitmap, offset, num_elements, mutable_data(), bit_length_);
false_count_ += num_elements - internal::CountSetBits(bitmap, offset, num_elements);
bit_length_ += num_elements;
}

Okay, I've refactor all into a TypedBufferBuilder @pitrou

I change PutImpl to use TypedBufferBuilder. I guess we can optimize it later.
