Add the DELTA_LENGTH_BYTE_ARRAY nz map consumer - #24639
This PR adds decode_delta_length_byte_array_kernel_with_nz_map, which decodes flat DELTA_LENGTH_BYTE_ARRAY pages using the nz map instead of decoding definition levels. Its decode loop is the same two-warp pipeline as the DELTA_BINARY_PACKED consumer from #24501: warp 0 decodes a batch of lengths into the decoder's rolling buffer while warp 1 writes the batch before it at the row the map gives. The rest of the block joins the null zero-fill, the offsets scan and the character copy. Because no levels are decoded, the kernel computes the null count, value count and zero-fill range itself, which the level-decoding kernel gets from gpuDecodeLevels. It stays behind LIBCUDF_PARQUET_NZ_MAP and off by default.
classify_nz_map_kind now also selects DELTA_LENGTH_BYTE_ARRAY pages. decode_delta_length_byte_array_kernel skips the pages the consumer takes. The host builds a mask of the kernels that still have pages without a map and launches each level-decoding kernel only when its bit is set. Each nz_map consumer runs on its own stream forked from the producer's with cudf::detail::fork_streams, ensuring the necessary stream-ordering while allowing the consumers to overlap.
Both consumers now return DATA_STREAM_OVERRUN for a page whose map needs more values than its delta header declares, before writing any output. The decoder's cursor moves a mini-block at a time and can pass the end of a short stream, so without this check the DELTA_BINARY_PACKED consumer returned rolling-buffer slots the page never wrote, without an error. init_binary_block now rejects a block size or value count above INT32_MAX, which made the decoder's 32-bit index step by zero or wrap so find_end_of_block never finished. The byte length of a mini-block is computed in 64 bits, since its bit width comes from the page unchecked.
The new code is tested with the following updates to existing tests. NzMapMatchesLevelDecoder gains a nullable DELTA_LENGTH_BYTE_ARRAY column, and NzMapNarrowDeltaBlock, NzMapRejectsShortDeltaStream and DeltaHeaderCountsTooLarge cover narrow DELTA blocks, short streams and oversized headers. The two 512 MiB delta read benchmarks gain the validity axis so the consumers' nullable cases are measured there; the nested configuration ignores it and runs once.

Add the DELTA_LENGTH_BYTE_ARRAY nz map consumer and a block-wide delta decode
Add the DELTA_LENGTH_BYTE_ARRAY nz map consumer
Nov 3, 2026
Third of the nz map series. Still opt-in behind `LIBCUDF_PARQUET_NZ_MAP=1`.
`decode_delta_length_byte_array_kernel_with_nz_map` decodes flat
DELTA_LENGTH_BYTE_ARRAY pages using the nz map instead of decoding definition
levels. Its decode loop is the producer/writer pipeline of the DELTA_BINARY
consumer from NVIDIA#24501: warp 0 decodes a batch of lengths into the decoder's
rolling buffer while warp 1 writes the batch before it, placing each length at
the row the map gives. The rest of the kernel follows
`decode_delta_length_byte_array_kernel`: page setup, the skip-resume path that
finds a slice's starting byte offset, the null zero-fill, the offsets scan and
the character copy.
The level-decoding kernel computed three things as side effects of
`gpuDecodeLevels`, which the consumer now computes directly: the null count,
which is `num_rows` minus the map's valid values at or after `first_row`; the
row count the offsets scan covers; and the zero-fill's range, which is
`num_rows`.
`classify_nz_map_kind` now also selects DELTA_LENGTH_BYTE_ARRAY pages. Routing
matches the DELTA_BINARY pair: the level-decoding kernel's skip is gated on the
same flag that decides whether the consumer is launched. The host now records
which encodings still have a page without a map, in `unmapped_kernel_mask`, so
each level-decoding kernel is launched only when its encoding has work for it
rather than on one bool scoped to DELTA_BINARY.
Each consumer now runs on its own stream, forked from the producer's with
`fork_streams` and joined back with `join_streams`. That orders it after the
producer while the two consumers overlap with each other and with the
level-decoding kernels. Sharing the producer's stream, as the DELTA_BINARY
consumer did on its own, would run the two consumers one after the other.
Both nz map consumers now reject a page whose map asks for more values than its
delta header declares, before writing anything, and report
`DATA_STREAM_OVERRUN`. The decoder's cursor advances a mini-block at a time and
can pass the end of a short stream, so the writer read rolling-buffer slots the
page never wrote and the read succeeded with values that were never decoded.
That was already true of the DELTA_BINARY_PACKED consumer from NVIDIA#24501, which is
fixed here too. `nz_count` counts from the start of the page, so it is the
number of values a read needs, and a bounded read that uses fewer values than
the page declares is unaffected. The DLBA consumer also returns before the
offsets scan if its loop stops short, rather than scanning unwritten lengths.
`init_binary_block` now rejects a block size or value count above INT32_MAX.
Both are uleb128s, so 64 bits wide, while the decoder steps its 32-bit
`current_value_idx` by `values_per_mb` until it reaches `value_count`. A block
size of 2^32 with one mini-block narrows `values_per_mb` to zero, and a block
size of 2^31 with a value count above it wraps the index back to zero; either
way `find_end_of_block` never finishes. The DELTA_LENGTH_BYTE_ARRAY and
DELTA_BYTE_ARRAY decoders call it, as does the string-size pass that runs for
those pages whether or not the nz map is on. Parquet stores a page's value count
as int32, so no valid page exceeds either bound. The DELTA_BINARY_PACKED
decoders never call it and decoded garbage rather than hanging; they now report
the header as unsupported.
A mini-block's byte length is now computed in 64 bits. The bitwidth comes from
the page unvalidated, so up to 255, and `values_per_mb` is bounded only by what
fits in 32, so `bitwidth * values_per_mb / 8` could wrap and place the next
mini-block's start below the block, where the `block_end` checks still pass and
the unpack reads the wrong bytes.
Tests: `NzMapMatchesLevelDecoder` gains a nullable DELTA_LENGTH_BYTE_ARRAY
column, without which its consumer is never selected. `NzMapNarrowDeltaBlock`
reads DELTA blocks of 32 and 64 values, narrower than the spec allows but
accepted by `init_binary_block`, and a 256-value mini-block that takes more than
one pass per batch, with the nz map off and on.
`NzMapRejectsShortDeltaStream` builds pages that ask for more values than their
stream declares, for both consumers, plus controls that read a stream holding
exactly enough and a bounded read holding more than it needs.
`DeltaHeaderCountsTooLarge` reads three oversized headers through both encodings
with the nz map off and on.
The two 512 MiB delta benchmarks gain a `validity` axis. The existing nullable
sweep is 8 MiB, which is L2-resident on an H100, so the nz map's extra traffic of
4 bytes per value could not show up there -- and for a string column that cost is
carried against a much larger payload than the fixed-width case. The nested path
builds its own data profile and ignores `validity`, so those cells are skipped
rather than run three times over on identical data.

Benchmark results for this PR, with LIBCUDF_PARQUET_NZ_MAP off and on. Measured on an H100 with SM clocks locked at 1755 MHz on an otherwise idle GPU, six rounds of each benchmark with the on vs off order alternating per round. Times are medians; on/off is the geometric mean of the per-round ratios. The spread across rounds was at most 2.1%, and the order of running LIBCUDF_PARQUET_NZ_MAP on vs off made no measurable difference.

All configurations are flat columns with cardinality 0 and run length 1. The one case within noise is 1% nulls with 32-row pages, where both arms take about 1.78 ms. Most of the gain at 50% nulls comes from the level-decoding kernels slowing down as nulls increase, while the consumers' times stay roughly flat.

Improved Parquet reads of delta-encoded numeric and string columns when flat non-zero maps are used, including nullable data and bounded or chunked reads.
Improved handling of large strings and 64-bit string offsets.
Malformed or incomplete delta-encoded data, including oversized headers and truncated streams, is rejected more reliably.
New Features
Added support for reading delta-length-encoded string pages with flat non-zero maps.
The Parquet reader adds flat nz-map decoding for DELTA_LENGTH_BYTE_ARRAY pages and updates DELTA_BINARY_PACKED decoding. Delta decoder validation checks header counts, mini-block widths, and packed-data bounds. Tests cover mapped reads and malformed streams. Encoding benchmarks add nullable validity configurations.

The reader identifies DELTA_BINARY and DELTA_LENGTH_BA consumers for flat nz maps. Decoder interfaces distinguish consumer streams from level-decoding streams. DELTA_LENGTH_BYTE_ARRAY adds mapped-page decoding, and the reader joins consumer streams when a map is present.
Cover mapped reads and string offsets cpp/tests/io/parquet_reader_test.cpp
Tests compare mapped and regular reads for nullable columns, large string offsets, narrow delta blocks, and sliced or bounded reads. Tests also cover short-stream errors.
NVIDIA/cudf#23965: The issue defines the staged nz-map rollout and identifies DELTA_LENGTH_BYTE_ARRAY as a consumer stage. This change adds that consumer and feature-flagged routing.

Extract the nz-map null-count computation into a shared helper.
This block repeats the logic in decode_delta_binary_kernel_with_nz_map (Lines 568-580). That logic counts valid values before first_row with a lower_bound search on the sorted map. Both copies must stay identical. A fix in only one kernel would make the two consumers produce different null counts.
Move the logic into one __device__ helper in the anonymous namespace and call it from both kernels.

Extract the nz-map null-count calculation into one shared __device__ helper in
the anonymous namespace, then call it from both kernels, including
decode_delta_binary_kernel_with_nz_map and the kernel containing ni.null_count.
Preserve the lower_bound-based prefix count and existing behavior when null
processing is disabled so both consumers use identical logic.
…hmark by its data
Both nz map consumers computed a page's null count with the same `lower_bound`
over the map. They now call one helper, `nz_map_null_count`, so the two kernels
cannot drift apart.
The nested configuration of the 512 MiB delta read benchmarks ran only under
`validity=no_validity`, but `create_nested_table` uses the data profile's
default 1% null probability. It now runs under `nullable_1`, which describes the
data it reads; the data itself is unchanged.

Optional: AI suggested (I checked) that this duplicates the decode_delta_binary_kernel_with_nz_map (loop L633-690 + overrun check L601-611). We can move it into a shared helper to reuse logic.

Thanks. I'd rather not share it here, though. The plan after this PR is to replace both consumers' producer/writer loops with a warp-per-page decode (one warp per page, no rolling buffer). A shared helper would be deleted along with both loops, so I'll leave them separate for now.
The reason will be displayed to describe this comment to others. Learn more.
AI suggested that the writer warp already visits the prefix rows (dst_pos < 0). Summing their lengths there gives string_offset and drops skip_values_and_sum and the re-init.
// writer warpautoconst len = static_cast<size_type>(db->value_at(sp));
if (dst_pos >= 0) { offptr[dst_pos] = len; } else { prefix_bytes += len; }

cg::invoke_one(warp, [&] { string_offset = sum; });

Agreed that this is a better shape. I'd like to defer it to the follow-up that moves this consumer to a warp-per-page decode. There the decode loop sums the skipped lengths directly, and both skip_values_and_sum and the re-init go away. Doing it now in the two-warp pipeline means the prefix sum is reduced across the writer warp and then handed to the epilogue. That changes the sliced-read path, which is about to be rewritten anyway.

Each consumer launches whenever any page has a map, even one of another encoding, so let's also collect a mapped_kernel_mask and launch each consumer only for its own encoding's mapped pages.

Done in 9a4136a. The producer launch and the consumer-stream fork still use the subpass-wide has_flat_nz_map. Each consumer now launches on its own encoding's bit in mapped_kernel_mask, and that is the same flag its level-decoding kernel skips on.

Done in 9a4136a. NzMapMatchesLevelDecoder now also reads with LIBCUDF_LARGE_STRINGS_THRESHOLD=1000, with the map off and on. It checks that the DLBA column comes back with INT64 offsets, then compares a full read and a sliced read (rows 1500-5820) against the expected table.
Couple small comments. Mostly good to go. Just one request, can you please run the tests that use these kernels (or PARQUET_TEST suite in general) via compute-sanitizer's synccheck + memcheck. Don't think asan needs to run here
I've been running racecheck and synccheck and everything is green. I'll add memcheck as well once I address all the comments.
- Launch each delta consumer only when its own encoding has mapped pages.
`mapped_kernel_mask` sits beside `unmapped_kernel_mask`, and each consumer
launches on the same per-encoding bit that its level-decoding kernel skips on.
- DLBA consumer: check for a short stream after the loop without barriers.
The state it reads is read-only by then. Drop the dead error write at the end.
- Add `packed_bytes` in delta_binary.cuh, used at all three packed-size sites.
- Add `[[nodiscard]]` on `nz_map_null_count`, and a `static_assert` that the
rolling buffer holds two batches plus the header slot.
- Test large-string DLBA reads (INT64 offsets, full and sliced) with the map off
and on, in `NzMapMatchesLevelDecoder`.

I suggested some removals of block.sync() above in #24639 (comment) and #24639 (comment). Wanted to ensure this wouldn't make synccheck fire either
memcheck's summary for PARQUET_TEST reads "1 error". That entry is a host-side CUDA_ERROR_OUT_OF_MEMORY returned to nvcomp's nvcompBatchedZstdDecompressGetTempSizeSync, in ParquetChunkedReaderInputLimitConstrainedTest.SingleFixedWidthColumn. It isn't a device memory-access error, the test passes, and it appeared in the same place before these changes.
The non-sanitized suites also pass with the map off and on: PARQUET_TEST 566 + 1 skip, and HYBRID_SCAN_TEST 119/119.

The DELTA_BINARY_PACKED decoder trusted each block's bit-width array and
each mini-block's bit width. On a malformed page it could read the
bit-width array past the end of the stream, and step to mini-blocks
beyond it.
- `init_mini_block` checks that the bit-width array fits in the stream.
- `check_mini_block` checks each mini-block that holds values before the
decoder reads it: the bit width must be at most 64, and the packed values
must end within the stream. Unused trailing mini-blocks are not checked,
because the spec lets them carry any bit width.
- On failure, the decoder enters the error state the header check already
uses (`set_error_state`), so every decode loop stops.
- `find_end_of_block` keeps that error for the caller instead of clearing
it with a re-init. The string kernels walk every mini-block there, so they
report DELTA_PARAMS_UNSUPPORTED before decoding.
- Both DELTA_BINARY kernels report it after the loop, because they meet
later mini-blocks mid-decode.
Test: DeltaMalformedMiniBlocks, with the map off and on.

I addressed the Coderabbit feedback that Haseeb re-raised in 13257ff51e8d9b5e3c27ec5c5097aaebcd81e5a7.
The per-pass offset overflow CodeRabbit flagged was already fixed in the previous commit: calc_mini_block_pass computes the offset with packed_bytes, in 64 bits. The rest of the issue was outside the original diff of the PR, but definitely a real bug. Nothing checked a mini-block's bit width, or whether its data fit in the stream, so a malformed page could read the bit-width array past the end of the stream. The decoder now checks:
The bit-width array.init_mini_block checks that it fits in the stream before reading from it.
Each mini-block that holds values (check_mini_block, beside packed_bytes). It runs before the decoder reads the mini-block: the bit width must be at most 64, and the packed values must end within the stream. Unused trailing mini-blocks are skipped, because the spec says readers must accept any bit width there.
A failed check puts the decoder in the error state the header check already uses, so every decode loop stops. The read reports DELTA_PARAMS_UNSUPPORTED:
The string kernels walk every mini-block in find_end_of_block, so they report it before decoding. That function no longer clears the error with its re-init.
Both DELTA_BINARY kernels report it after their loop.
DeltaMalformedMiniBlocks covers widths over 64 in the first and second mini-block, values cut short, and a bit-width array cut short. It runs for DELTA_BINARY_PACKED and DELTA_LENGTH_BYTE_ARRAY with the map off and on, and includes a control page whose unused mini-blocks carry width 200.

The chunked read in NzMapMatchesLevelDecoder probably never splits a page that uses the map: we need to make sure skipping within a page works.
compute_page_splits_by_row only ends a chunk at a page's last row, and with max_page_fragment_size(1000) / max_page_size_rows(1000) every column's pages end at multiples of 1000. So each chunk covers whole pages with first_row == 0, and a smaller chunk_read_limit doesn't change that. The per-chunk paths — the producer's value_limit cut-off, the prefix search in nz_map_null_count, and value_count - first_row in the offsets scan — are only exercised by the non-chunked skip_rows(1500) read.
Bound the chunked read: .skip_rows(1500).num_rows(4321) on the chunked reader options. Then the first chunk starts mid-page and the last ends mid-page.

Good catch, done in 08be71e. The chunked read now also runs with .skip_rows(1500).num_rows(4321), with the map off and on, so the first chunk starts mid-page and the last one ends mid-page. Both the full and the bounded chunked reads must produce more than one chunk. PARQUET_TEST and HYBRID_SCAN_TEST pass with the map off and on, and racecheck on the delta tests is clean.
Chunks end only at page boundaries, and the test's pages all end at
multiples of 1000 rows. So an unbounded chunked read never starts a chunk
mid-page, which leaves untested the producer's value limit, the prefix
search in `nz_map_null_count`, and `value_count - first_row` in the offsets
scan. Also read rows 1500-5820 chunked, so the first chunk starts mid-page
and the last one ends mid-page. Both reads must produce more than one
chunk.

Description
This PR adds
decode_delta_length_byte_array_kernel_with_nz_map, which decodes flat DELTA_LENGTH_BYTE_ARRAY pages using the nz map instead of decoding definition levels. Its decode loop is the same two-warp pipeline as the DELTA_BINARY_PACKED consumer from #24501: warp 0 decodes a batch of lengths into the decoder's rolling buffer while warp 1 writes the batch before it at the row the map gives. The rest of the block joins the null zero-fill, the offsets scan and the character copy. Because no levels are decoded, the kernel computes the null count, value count and zero-fill range itself, which the level-decoding kernel gets fromgpuDecodeLevels. It stays behindLIBCUDF_PARQUET_NZ_MAPand off by default.classify_nz_map_kindnow also selects DELTA_LENGTH_BYTE_ARRAY pages.decode_delta_length_byte_array_kernelskips the pages the consumer takes. The host builds a mask of the kernels that still have pages without a map and launches each level-decoding kernel only when its bit is set. Each nz_map consumer runs on its own stream forked from the producer's withcudf::detail::fork_streams, ensuring the necessary stream-ordering while allowing the consumers to overlap.Both consumers now return DATA_STREAM_OVERRUN for a page whose map needs more values than its delta header declares, before writing any output. The decoder's cursor moves a mini-block at a time and can pass the end of a short stream, so without this check the DELTA_BINARY_PACKED consumer returned rolling-buffer slots the page never wrote, without an error.
init_binary_blocknow rejects a block size or value count above INT32_MAX, which made the decoder's 32-bit index step by zero or wrap sofind_end_of_blocknever finished. The byte length of a mini-block is computed in 64 bits, since its bit width comes from the page unchecked.The new code is tested with the following updates to existing tests.
NzMapMatchesLevelDecodergains a nullable DELTA_LENGTH_BYTE_ARRAY column, andNzMapNarrowDeltaBlock,NzMapRejectsShortDeltaStreamandDeltaHeaderCountsTooLargecover narrow DELTA blocks, short streams and oversized headers. The two 512 MiB delta read benchmarks gain thevalidityaxis so the consumers' nullable cases are measured there; the nested configuration ignores it and runs once.Contributes to #23965.
