clintropolis opened a new pull request #10666:
URL: https://github.com/apache/druid/pull/10666
### Description
#10219 added `hasNulls` to `ColumnCapabilities`, allowing things to know if
a column has any null values in SQL compatible mode
(`druid.generic.useDefaultValueForNull=false`). With this information
available, `NullableNumericAggregatorFactory` can be modified to use a version
of the null-aware wrapper aggregators which do not need to check `isNull` on
each aggregate call, which should reduce the overhead of enabling this mode for
columns which do not have null values (I haven't actually measured this yet so
I'm unsure of the difference).
To achieve this, I have pulled out most of the logic of
`NullableNumericAggregator`, `NullableNumericBufferAggregator`, and
`NullableNumericVectorAggregator` into a new set of abstract classes,
`NullAwareNumericAggregator`, `NullAwareNumericVectorAggregator`, and
`NullAwareNumericVectorAggregator` respectively which the former now extend.
For processing columns which do not have null values, a new set of 'non-null'
aggregator wrappers have been introduced, `NonnullNumericAggregator`,
`NonnullNumericBufferAggregator`, and `NonnullNumericVectorAggregator`, which
also extend the 'null-aware' base classes, so that they initialize to a null
value and are compatible with the expectations of aggregator behavior with
filtering (which reasonably expect an aggregator 'get' to produce the correct
result, even if no values were aggregated), but can skip the 'is null check'.
`NullableNumericAggregatorFactory` (which should probably more correctly be
renamed `NullAwareNumericAggregatorFactory` but its marked `@ExtensionPoint` so
I tried not to mess with it too much), has also been expanded to include a new
method to check if the aggregator input has null values, with a default
implementation of:
```
/**
* Returns true if the aggregator will actually produce null values given
its input selectors, e.g. if
* the inputs to the aggregator have any nulls.
*/
protected boolean hasNulls(ColumnInspector inspector)
{
return sqlCompatible;
}
```
with implementations that override in the 'simple' aggregator factories.
Since there was a lot of duplicated code between the 'simple' aggregator
factories (`SimpleLongAggregatorFactory`, `SimpleFloatAggregatorFactory`,
`SimpleDoubleAggregatorFactory`), I have introduced yet another base class,
`SimpleNumericAggregatorFactory` to consolidate all of the
'fieldName'/'expression' handling stuff.
```
public abstract class SimpleNumericAggregatorFactory<TValueSelector extends
BaseNullableColumnValueSelector>
extends NullableNumericAggregatorFactory<ColumnValueSelector>
```
which also handles the 'hasNulls' check override of
`NullableNumericAggregatorFactory`. This class could probably be consolidated
with `NullableNumericAggregatorFactory`, but since that class is
`@ExtensionPoint`, I avoided making this change at this time.
I'll try to find some time to measure the difference, but naively it seems
obvious that using the 'non-null' family of aggregators should be better due to
having fewer method calls and branching opportunities.
