18519: To review by AI


Note

Refactors log() to use coercible signatures with Float16 and improved decimal handling, introduces float/decimal/numeric type classes, tweaks scalar/utility casting, and updates tests and ordering plans.

  • Functions/Math (log):
    • Refactor to use TypeSignature::Coercible with new TypeSignatureClass::{Float, Decimal, Numeric}.
    • Accepts Float16/32/64 and Decimal32/64/128/256 (32/64 via upcast to 128); default base handled via ScalarValue::new_ten.
    • Adds null propagation in simplify/invoke and preserves input ordering more precisely.
    • Return type now mirrors input float width (f16→Float16, f32→Float32, else Float64).
  • Type System:
    • Add NativeType helpers: is_float, is_decimal; refactor is_numeric to use helpers.
    • Extend signature machinery with new type classes (Float/Decimal/Numeric) including example types, matching, and default casts.
  • Common/Scalar:
    • Allow decimal scale 0 in new_ten (reject only negative scale).
    • Add TryFrom<ScalarValue> for f16.
  • Utils:
    • calculate_binary_math now casts RHS upfront and avoids redundant casts for array RHS.
  • Tests/SQL Logic:
    • Add/adjust tests for decimal logs (Decimal32/64/128/256), Float16/32/64 behavior, null propagation, and EXPLAIN plans (ordering without extra casts).

Bug: Precision loss in decimal log regression detected

The test expectation for log(2.0, large_decimal) was changed from the correct value 116.267483321058 to the incorrect value 116. While a TODO comment acknowledges the bug, accepting incorrect output masks a regression in the native decimal log implementation that loses precision when the base is a float.

Code Review - PR #9: Refactor log() signature to use coercion API + fixes

Summary

This PR refactors the log() function to use the new coercion API and fixes several issues related to decimal handling. Overall, this is a solid refactoring that improves type handling and adds better support for various numeric types.

Strengths

  1. Good Use of Coercion API: The new signature using TypeSignature::Coercible with Coercion types is cleaner and more maintainable than the previous hardcoded Exact signatures.

  2. Improved Type Coverage: Added support for Float16, Decimal32, and Decimal64 types, making the function more comprehensive.

  3. Better Null Handling: The null propagation in simplify() and invoke_with_args() is correctly implemented.

  4. Comprehensive Test Coverage: Excellent test additions covering various decimal types, Float16/32/64, and edge cases.

  5. Bug Fix: The change from *scale <= 0 to *scale < 0 in scalar/mod.rs:1737,1753 correctly allows scale=0, which is valid for integers represented as decimals.

  6. Code Simplification: Removed unnecessary Arc::clone and simplified the logic in invoke_with_args().

Issues and Concerns

1. Critical: Loss of Precision in Decimal Log (Acknowledged TODO)

The native decimal log implementation uses ilog() which returns only integer results, causing significant precision loss compared to floating-point log.

Impact:

Recommendation:

2. Inconsistent Casting in calculate_binary_math

The casting is now done inside calculate_binary_math (utils.rs:143), but this might not be obvious to callers. The previous approach where callers handled casting was more explicit.

Recommendation: Add a comment explaining why casting happens here and what the expected input types are.

3. Potential Type Confusion with Decimal Base

When the value is Decimal32/64, it is cast to Decimal128 but the base must be Float64. The log_decimal128 function requires the base to be an integer (base.trunc() != base check at line 108), but the type signature allows Float64 base.

Recommendation:

  • Add validation that base is an integer when using decimal values
  • Or document this constraint clearly
  • Consider if the error message "Log cannot use non-integer base" is clear enough

4. Missing Test for Decimal32/64 with Base Parameter

While there are tests for Decimal32/64 with default base (10), there are no tests for custom bases with these types.

Recommendation: Add test cases like log(2.0, arrow_cast(64, 'Decimal32(9, 0)'))

5. Code Duplication in Signature

The as_float.clone() is repeated multiple times in the signature definition. While this is fine, consider extracting to a variable if more signatures are added in the future.

Code Quality

Good Practices Observed:

  • Proper error handling with descriptive messages
  • Consistent use of Result types
  • Good separation of concerns (type coercion vs computation)
  • Comprehensive unit tests
  • Documentation of known limitations with TODOs and issue links

Minor Style Issues:

  • Line 142 in utils.rs: The cast is now done at the beginning of the function, which is good, but consider adding a doc comment explaining this
  • Line 188 in log.rs: The null check could be extracted to a helper function if this pattern is common across functions

Security Concerns

No security issues identified. The function properly validates inputs and handles edge cases like negative values, invalid bases, and overflow conditions.

Performance Considerations

Positive:

  • Efficient use of try_unary for array operations
  • Null propagation at simplify time prevents unnecessary computation

Concerns:

  • Decimal32/64 Upcast: Casting Decimal32/64 to Decimal128 (line 232) adds overhead. Consider implementing native support as noted in TODO at line 226 and issue Native decimal 32/64/256 bit support for log apache/datafusion#17555.
  • Type Casting Overhead: The new cast_to call in calculate_binary_math adds a cast operation that may not have been there before for all code paths.

Test Coverage

Excellent test coverage with tests for:

  • Float16, Float32, Float64
  • Decimal32, Decimal64, Decimal128, Decimal256
  • Scale variations
  • Null handling
  • Error cases (invalid base, overflow)
  • SQL logic tests

Missing tests:

  • Decimal32/64 with non-default base
  • Mixed type scenarios (e.g., Decimal base with Float value)
  • Performance regression tests for the new casting behavior

Documentation

  • Good use of inline comments explaining complex logic
  • TODOs are properly linked to GitHub issues
  • Function documentation is clear

Recommendations

High Priority:

  1. Address or document the precision loss in decimal log implementation
  2. Add tests for Decimal32/64 with custom base
  3. Document the integer-only base constraint for decimal values

Medium Priority:

  1. Consider performance implications of upcasting Decimal32/64
  2. Add doc comments to calculate_binary_math about the casting behavior

Low Priority:

  1. Extract null checking pattern to a helper if used in other functions
  2. Consider extracting the as_float clone pattern if more signatures are added

Approval Recommendation

Overall: LGTM with minor concerns

This is a solid refactoring that improves the codebase. The identified issues are either:

  • Already acknowledged with TODO comments and linked issues
  • Minor improvements that can be addressed in follow-up PRs

The code is well-tested, properly handles edge cases, and the new coercion API usage is a good architectural improvement.

Suggested action: Merge after addressing the documentation concern about decimal precision loss (either in code comments or function documentation).

If the RHS is a scalar NULL, this path will attempt to convert it to R::Native and error instead of yielding a NULL result per SQL semantics (including when the NULL is typed as the target numeric type). Consider short‑circuiting scalar‑NULL RHS to return an all‑NULL output array.

4566-4568: New TryFrom<ScalarValue> for f16 is useful; consider also adding From<f16> for symmetry.

This completes the extraction path. For ergonomic construction (parity with f32/f64), also add From<f16> and From<Option<f16>> via the existing macro.

Apply near the other impl_scalar! calls:

 impl_scalar!(u64, UInt64);
 
+// Convenience constructors for Float16
+impl_scalar!(f16, Float16);

Optionally, add a non‑consuming conversion to avoid moves:

impl TryFrom<&ScalarValue> for f16 {
    type Error = DataFusionError;
    fn try_from(value: &ScalarValue) -> Result<Self> {
        match value {
            ScalarValue::Float16(Some(v)) => Ok(*v),
            _ => _internal_err!("Cannot convert {:?} to {}", value, std::any::type_name::<Self>()),
        }
    }
}

382-384: Consider adding integer example for Numeric type.

The Numeric type class includes both integers and floats (Int8 through UInt64, Float32, Float64), but get_example_types() only returns Float64. While acceptable for a single example, consider returning a more representative set like vec![DataType::Int64, DataType::Float64] to better illustrate the range of numeric types.

datafusion/functions/src/math/log.rs (1)

360-370: Document precision characteristics for users.

The test demonstrates that decimal logarithms lose fractional precision compared to floating-point calculations. While this is tracked in issue apache#18524, consider documenting this behavior limitation in user-facing documentation or the function's doc comment to set appropriate expectations.

datafusion/functions/src/utils.rs (2)

143-143: LGTM: Early cast consolidation.

The early cast of right to R::DATA_TYPE consolidates type conversion logic before branching, eliminating redundant casting in each branch.


159-172: Type parameter change is correct and compatible with all call sites.

Verification confirms that the change from as_primitive::<T>() to as_primitive::<R>() is correct. The T parameter represents the left type and R represents the right type. All six call sites in log.rs pass the right array with a type matching the R parameter, including mixed-type scenarios like calculate_binary_math::<Decimal128Type, Float64Type, Float64Type, _> where the right array is correctly Float64Type. No compatibility issues exist.

datafusion/common/src/types/native.rs (3)

432-434: LGTM: Improved maintainability through helper methods.

Refactoring is_numeric() to use the new helper methods improves code clarity and maintainability.


485-488: LGTM: Comprehensive float type checking.

The is_float() method correctly includes all float types, including the newly supported Float16.


480-483: The review comment is incorrect; these implementations serve different purposes and cannot be consolidated.

The apparent duplication is misleading: the two is_decimal functions in type_coercion modules operate on DataType (checking for Decimal32/64/128/256 variants), while the new NativeType::is_decimal() operates on a different type (NativeType) with a single Decimal(_, _) variant.

Critically, the binary.rs implementation uses std::mem::discriminant comparisons to distinguish between decimal variants for type coercion logic—functionality that would be lost by switching to NativeType::is_decimal(). These functions are not redundant; they solve problems in different type systems.

Likely an incorrect or invalid review comment.

datafusion/sqllogictest/test_files/math.slt (2)

709-719: LGTM: Comprehensive null propagation testing.

The EXPLAIN test correctly validates that log(NULL, c2) is optimized to a constant Float64(NULL) at planning time, demonstrating proper null propagation handling.


720-734: LGTM: Thorough float precision testing.

The tests validate log function behavior across Float16, Float32, and Float64 types, correctly demonstrating precision differences in the results (2.6074219 vs 2.606992 vs 2.606992198152).

datafusion/sqllogictest/test_files/order.slt (2)

672-684: LGTM: Coercion API successfully eliminates explicit casts.

The removal of explicit CAST operations in the LOG function projections confirms that the new coercible type signatures are working as intended, simplifying query plans and improving usability.


686-700: LGTM: Consistent coercion behavior.

The changes consistently demonstrate that the coercion API works correctly regardless of argument order, eliminating the need for explicit casts in both log(c12, c11) and log(c11, c12).

datafusion/sqllogictest/test_files/decimal.slt (4)

797-840: LGTM: Comprehensive decimal type coverage.

The tests thoroughly validate log(100) across all decimal type variants (Decimal32, Decimal64, Decimal128, Decimal256) with different scales, correctly expecting a result of 2 for all cases.


842-899: TODO comment indicates known discrepancy in decimal log implementation.

The TODO at lines 893-894 notes a known issue where log(2.0, 10^35) returns 116 instead of the expected 116.267483321058. This suggests a precision issue with the native decimal log implementation that should be tracked separately.

Additionally, verify that the overflow error message at line 855 is appropriate and user-friendly. The test expects an error for log(10^38) which exceeds Decimal128 precision.

Referenced issue: apache#18524


922-943: LGTM: Tests correctly demonstrate parse_float_as_decimal impact.

The tests appropriately show how the parse_float_as_decimal setting affects precision, demonstrating that float parsing causes rounding (35 → 34) while decimal parsing maintains precision. This is important for users to understand.


901-920: LGTM: Thorough null propagation testing.

The tests comprehensively validate null handling for both single-argument log(null) and two-argument log(base, value) forms, correctly expecting NULL results in all cases.

datafusion/common/src/scalar/mod.rs (1)

1737-1744: Approve the code change; request verification that tests for scale=0 are added or will be added in this PR.

The change is correct—all four decimal types now consistently check if *scale < 0 (Decimal128/256 already used this check). Since scale=0 produces 10^(0+1)=10, it is mathematically valid and should be supported.

However, the existing tests for Decimal128/256 do not explicitly validate scale=0. Verify that this PR includes tests for both Decimal32/64 with scale=0 and scale<0, to confirm the behavior matches the 128/256 implementations and that no regressions are introduced.

datafusion/expr-common/src/signature.rs (3)

24-24: LGTM: Import additions support new decimal functionality.

The new imports are necessary for the Decimal type signature class implementation.


337-339: LGTM: New type signature classes enable granular coercion.

The Float, Decimal, and Numeric variants appropriately extend the type classification system for coercible signatures.


402-404: LGTM: Type matching and casting logic follow established patterns.

The implementations for the new type classes correctly mirror the existing patterns. The decision to preserve the origin type in default_casted_type() when it already matches the target class avoids unnecessary casts.

Also applies to: 438-446

datafusion/functions/src/math/log.rs (7)

26-45: LGTM: Import additions support coercion API and extended type coverage.

The new imports are necessary for the coercible signature implementation and expanded decimal/Float16 support.


76-102: LGTM: Coercible signature design enables decimal precedence.

The signature construction correctly uses the coercion API to accept decimals natively while supporting implicit conversion from numeric types to float. The ordering within OneOf ensures decimal variants are matched first, as intended.


152-159: LGTM: Float16 support properly integrated.

The return type logic correctly extends to Float16, preserving input precision across all float types.


188-191: LGTM: Early null propagation improves efficiency.

The null check avoids unnecessary computation when inputs have null types, which is consistent with DataFusion's null handling patterns.


193-201: LGTM: Default base-10 handling is correct.

The logic properly defaults to base-10 for single-argument calls while preserving explicit bases for two-argument calls. The use of ScalarValue::new_ten() correctly supports all numeric types including decimals.


204-256: LGTM: Extended type support is well-structured.

The implementation correctly handles Float16 and decimal types. The Decimal32/64 upcast limitation and integer logarithm precision loss are both documented with TODO comments and issue tracking.

Note: Lines 226-228 reference issue apache#17555 for native Decimal32/64 log support, and the test at lines 360-370 notes precision loss tracked in issue apache#18524.


272-283: LGTM: Null propagation in simplify ensures consistency.

Adding null handling to the simplify path maintains consistency with the invoke path and enables early optimization of null expressions.

Findings

  • datafusion/functions/src/math/log.rs:88 / datafusion/sqllogictest/test_files/decimal.slt:893 — By giving the decimal overload higher priority, log(2.0, <decimal>) is now forced through log_decimal128, which only computes an integer ilog and returns 116 instead of the mathematically correct ~116.267. In the base commit this case was coerced to the float path, so it produced the correct fractional result; the new sqllogictest expectation was updated to match the truncated value. This is a high-severity regression (wrong query result). Please either restore the float-based code path when the base is non-integer or enhance the decimal implementation so it preserves the fractional component.
