Subject: [PATCH 001/498] Assortment of `VortexSource` improvements and fixes
 (#8718)

## Rationale for this change

General improvements of the `FileSource`-based Apache DataFusion
integration.

## What changes are included in this PR?

1. DF metrics are in use, so make better use of them both on reads and
writes, which is a step towards having the same default observability
that `ParquetSource` provides.
2. Fix a subtle issue where a dynamic expression only references
partition literals, which we currently don't handle correctly.
3. Drop `batch_size` from the source, by default DataFusion splits the
data coming out of `DataScanExec` nodes.
4. Make sure we keep schema and field metadata through all the
projections paths.

## What APIs are changed? Are there any user-facing changes?

More metrics will be reported in DF, and batch size needs to be done
through the `DataSourceExec` and `FileScanConfig` level.

Subject: [PATCH 002/498] fix(spark): reject MapType instead of emitting a
 childless Arrow List (#8811)

`SparkToArrowSchema` mapped `MapType` to a childless `ArrowType.List`,
which is an invalid Arrow list (a List must have exactly one child).
Drop the branch so `MapType` falls through to the existing fail-fast
`UnsupportedOperationException`, and add a test.

Subject: [PATCH 003/498] build(java): bump Spark 3 from 3.5.8 to 3.5.9 (#8812)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

## Rationale for this change

Spark 3.5.9 was released to Maven Central on 2026-07-12 as the latest
maintenance
release of the 3.5 line, containing bug fixes over 3.5.8. Keeping the
Spark 3
compileOnly/test dependency current picks up those fixes for the
`vortex-spark`
connector's Spark 3 builds.

## What changes are included in this PR?

A one-line version bump in `java/gradle/libs.versions.toml`: `spark3 =
"3.5.8"` →
`spark3 = "3.5.9"`. No code changes.

Verified locally against 3.5.9 with `:vortex-spark_2.12:test`: 120 tests
ran, all
passed except `VortexDataSourceS3MockTest`, which failed only because
the local Docker
daemon was not running (Testcontainers infrastructure requirement,
unrelated to the
Spark version).

## What APIs are changed? Are there any user-facing changes?

None. Spark 3.5.9 is a drop-in maintenance upgrade; no connector code or
public API
is touched.

Subject: [PATCH 004/498] build(java): bump Spark 4 from 4.1.1 to 4.1.2 (#8813)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

## Rationale for this change

Spark 4.1.2 is the latest maintenance release of the 4.1 line on Maven
Central,
containing bug fixes over 4.1.1. Keeping the Spark 4 dependency current
picks up those
fixes for the `vortex-spark_2.13` builds. Companion to #8812, which
bumps the Spark 3
line.

## What changes are included in this PR?

A one-line version bump in `java/gradle/libs.versions.toml`: `spark4 =
"4.1.1"` →
`spark4 = "4.1.2"`. No code changes.

Verified locally against 4.1.2 with `:vortex-spark_2.13:test`: 120 tests
ran, all
passed except `VortexDataSourceS3MockTest`, which failed only because
the local Docker
daemon was not running (Testcontainers infrastructure requirement,

Subject: [PATCH 005/498] Skip building binaries in  when there are no tests
 (#8820)

## Rationale for this change

We have many binaries in the main workspace, many of them don't contain
any tests (in the final `main.rs` or equivalent file).

## What changes are included in this PR?

Sets `test = false` for most binaries in the workspace, which means that
running `cargo test` or `cargo nextest` won't build the final binary.

I've also restructured `random-access` a bit (with claude's help) so it
actually has a dedicated `lib.rs`.

## What APIs are changed? Are there any user-facing changes?

None

only removed top-level nullability. The typed scalar views had the same
mismatch, so equal nested values could produce different hashes.

- adds recursive nullability-insensitive dtype hashing matching
`DType::eq_ignore_nullability`
- uses it for `Scalar`, `ListScalar`, `StructScalar`, and `ExtScalar`
- covers nested list, struct, Union dtype, and extension storage
nullability regressions

This is kind of ugly but I don't think there is a better way to do this

Subject: [PATCH 008/498] Add documentation links to benchmark suite PR
 comments (#8815)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

## Rationale for this change

It's hard to know what each CI benchmark suite actually measures or
where it is defined. Every suite should ship a short explainer doc, and
the recurring `# Benchmarks: <suite>` PR comments should link to it.

## What changes are included in this PR?

1. **A markdown explainer per benchmark suite**, living next to the
suite definition:
`vortex-bench/sql/{tpch,tpcds,appian,vortex}/README.md`,
`vortex-bench/sql/{clickbench,fineweb,statpopgen,polarsignals,spatialbench,gharchive,public-bi}.md`,
and `benchmarks/{random-access,compress}-bench/README.md`. Each covers
what the suite measures, the dataset, the CI variants, and how to run it
locally.
2. **The Rust benchmark code is the source of truth for the link.**
`Benchmark::doc_path()` is a required trait method; the runner stamps it
as a `doc` field on every results.json row (the standalone
`random-access-bench`/`compress-bench` binaries do the same via a
`DOC_PATH` const).
3. **`scripts/compare-benchmark-jsons.py` renders the comment title** as
`# Benchmarks: <name> [📖](<doc>)` from that field, replacing the `echo`
lines in `bench-pr.yml`/`sql-benchmarks.yml`. Per review feedback, the
link pins the results' commit SHA rather than `develop`, so it resolves
before the PR merges and stays valid afterwards.

## What APIs are changed? Are there any user-facing changes?

`vortex_bench::Benchmark` gains a required `doc_path()` method (new
suites must ship a doc), and `print_measurements_json`/`export_results`
take the doc path. results.json rows carry a new `doc` field. Benchmark
PR comments now start with a 📖 link to the suite's explainer.

+# Random Access benchmark
+
+Measures point-lookup latency: fetching individual rows by index from a file, rather than
+scanning it. This is the workload behind the `Random Access` PR comment.
+
+Two access patterns are generated with a fixed seed (see [`src/main.rs`](./src/main.rs)):
+
+- **correlated**: several clusters of consecutive indices scattered across the dataset,
+  simulating lookups with spatial locality;
+- **uniform**: indices drawn from a Poisson process spread uniformly across the dataset,
+  simulating lookups with no locality.
+
+Each pattern runs over four datasets (`taxi`, `feature-vectors`, `nested-lists`,
+`nested-structs`) in Parquet, Lance, and Vortex, both with a cached open file handle and
+reopening the file per lookup. CI drives the full matrix via
+[`scripts/random-access-split.py`](../../scripts/random-access-split.py).

+# PolarSignals Profiling benchmark
+
+A benchmark over continuous-profiling stacktrace data from
+[Polar Signals](https://www.polarsignals.com/). The schema features a sparse struct (ten
+nullable label fields covering five fill-rate tiers), deeply nested locations
+(`List<Struct<..., List<Struct<...>>>>`), and several low-cardinality string columns —
+making it the main deeply-nested / sparse-data workload in CI.
+
+The queries in [`polarsignals.sql`](./polarsignals.sql) select stacktrace samples over
+increasingly wide time ranges with equality filters on the low-cardinality metadata
+columns. The harness lives in [`src/polarsignals`](../src/polarsignals).
+
+## CI variant
+
+CI runs this suite from local NVMe as the `PolarSignals Profiling` PR comment. It runs
+DataFusion over Vortex only (there is no Parquet control for this suite, so its geomean is
+reported without a drift-corrected verdict).

+
+A genomics analytics benchmark using the gnomAD v3.1.2 release of the jointly called One
+Thousand Genomes + Human Genome Diversity Project (1kG+HGDP) dataset — a prefix of
+chromosome 21. The data source is <https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/>.
+
+The distinguishing feature is the `GT` genotype column: a large variable-length list of
+small nullable integers per row, which stresses list encodings and list-aware compute.
+The queries in [`statpopgen.sql`](./statpopgen.sql) cover common genomics patterns:
+allele-frequency calculations, Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium statistics, variant filtering by
+frequency and by locus interval, and random access to a specific variant.
+
+The harness lives in [`src/statpopgen`](../src/statpopgen).
+
+## CI variant
+
+CI runs this suite from local NVMe as the `Statistical and Population Genetics` PR

+# Vortex queries benchmark
+
+A small suite of microbenchmark queries targeting Vortex-specific scan paths, run on
+**every PR commit** (unlike the label-gated suites) with a high iteration count, so it is
+the most sensitive — and most frequently seen — benchmark comment.
+
+[`init.sql`](./init.sql) generates a 25M-row two-column table; the numbered queries each
+pin down one scan behavior:
+
+- [`0_sum-with-filter.sql`](./0_sum-with-filter.sql): a filtered aggregation that forces a
+  linear scan today; once statistics are propagated to arrays it should use zone maps
+  instead of decoding every row.
+- [`1_sum.sql`](./1_sum.sql): an unfiltered aggregation that should eventually be answered
+  from footer statistics without decoding data.
+
+## CI variant
+
+CI runs this as the `Vortex queries` PR comment (see

Subject: [PATCH 009/498] feat(vortex-onpair): update to the onpair 0.1 API
 (#8675)

## Summary

Updates the experimental `vortex-onpair` encoding to the public API
introduced in `onpair` 0.1.

- Migrates compression and decoding to the new configuration, raw
column-parts, and validated compact-dictionary APIs.
- Updates compressed-domain equality comparisons for the new dictionary
representation.
- Supports adaptive `u32`/`u64` code offsets.
- Validates dictionaries loaded from serialized data, including
rejecting dictionaries that exceed the `u16` token address space.
- Adds regression coverage for empty and all-null inputs, large
dictionaries, narrowed children, sliced arrays, and `u64` code offsets.

## Scope

This PR intentionally does not include the new `LIKE`, `list_contains`,
or `take` pushdowns. Those will be submitted in a follow-up PR.

A separate follow-up will enable OnPair on the default read path without
enabling it in the default compressor.

## Dependency note

The dependency is temporarily pinned to an upstream OnPair commit
containing the dictionary-validation fix. Before merging, that fix will
be published in a new crates.io release and the Git dependency will be
replaced with the released version.

## Testing

- `cargo +nightly fmt --all -- --check`
- `cargo test -p vortex-onpair`
- `cargo test -p vortex-btrblocks --features unstable_encodings`
- `cargo clippy -p vortex-onpair -p vortex-btrblocks --all-targets
--all-features -- -D warnings`

 ## Compute
 
-Like the FSST encoding, this crate provides `cast` and `filter`
-pushdown. Other operators fall back to ordinary decompression.
+Like the FSST encoding, this crate pushes down common operations over the
+encoded representation. It supports `cast`, `filter`, byte length, and
+constant equality / inequality. Unsupported operators fall back to ordinary
+decompression.
 
 ## Default Configuration
 
-The default training preset is **dict-12**: 12 bits per token,
-dictionary capped at 4 096 entries. Token codes are stored as a
-`PrimitiveArray<u16>`; downstream `FastLanes::BitPacking` losslessly
-narrows the child to exactly `bits`-bit codes on disk.
+The default training configuration uses OnPair's default dictionary budget and
+a fixed seed. Vortex stores token codes as an integer child array; downstream
+integer compression may narrow or bit-pack that child independently.
 
 ## Layout
 
 - Buffer 0 — `dict_bytes`: dictionary blob built by the OnPair trainer,
-  padded with `MAX_TOKEN_SIZE` trailing zero bytes so the over-copy
-  decoder can read 16 bytes past the last token.
-- Slot 0 — `dict_offsets`: `PrimitiveArray<u32>`, len `dict_size + 1`.
-- Slot 1 — `codes`: `PrimitiveArray<u16>`, length `total_tokens`.
-- Slot 2 — `codes_offsets`: `PrimitiveArray<u32>`, length `num_rows + 1`.
-- Slot 3 — `uncompressed_lengths`: integer `PrimitiveArray`, length
-  `num_rows`.
+  including the read padding required by the decoder.
+- Slot 0 — `dict_offsets`: integer child, len `dict_size + 1`.

Subject: [PATCH 010/498] feat(vortex-array): union_child_validities expr
 helper (#8829)

## What

Adds `vortex_array::expr::union_child_validities(expr)`: the conjunction
of an expression's child validities (result is null iff any operand is
null). This is the common `ScalarFnVTable::validity()` for
null-propagating kernels (comparisons, arithmetic, most geo/tensor ops),
letting the planner derive the output null mask without executing the
kernel.

Migrates `vortex-tensor`'s four scalar functions (`InnerProduct`,
`CosineSimilarity`, `L2Denorm`, `L2Norm`) onto it, replacing their
inline `and(child validities)`.

Subject: [PATCH 011/498] Add PiecewiseSequence index array (#8799)

This array allows FixedSizeList, List, and ListView to implement take
without materializing a dense array of indices of size `O(N_TAKE_INDICES
* LIST_SIZE)`. Their elements child arrays can, in turn, use efficient
memcpy calls instead of copying individual indices.

## Summary

Adds `PiecewiseSequenceArray`, a serializable index encoding for
piecewise arithmetic sequences: `starts[i] + j * multipliers[i]` for `j`
in `0..lengths[i]`.

This PR only introduces the index array and its execution/scalar
behavior. It intentionally does not specialize `take`; dependent PRs
consume this encoding for the constant-multiplier-1 contiguous case.

## Validation

- `cargo fmt -p vortex-array`
- `cargo test -p vortex-array piecewise_sequence`

From b7b01d373f03cb177376946bd33f7941ea9649a0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001

Subject: [PATCH 012/498] Avoid redundant allocations in struct layout reader
 (#8851)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Pre-size the dtype and name vectors to their final length and push the
`validity` entry first, instead of collecting at field-count capacity
and then `insert(0, ..)`.

The previous code `collect`ed each `Vec` at exact field-count capacity,
then `insert(0, ..)` forced a reallocation **and** an O(n) shift of
every element. Both are now gone.

## Checks
- `cargo build -p vortex-layout` ✅

Subject: [PATCH 014/498] docs: introduce Vortex editions for users of the file
 format (#8855)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

## Rationale for this change

Vortex needs a named, user-visible compatibility contract for which
encodings a writer may put in a file. This PR introduces **editions**: a
named grouping of encodings that records exactly which encodings a
Vortex file may contain and when each encoding joined the set. Writing
under an edition guarantees every future Vortex release can read — and
execute queries over — the file. The concept fills the
forward/backward-compatibility seam already noted in
`register_default_encodings` ("different Vortex 'Editions' that may
support different sets of encodings") and gives unknown-encoding errors
a stable docs page to link to. A follow-up PR adds the Rust
implementation (`vortex-edition` crate) and the generated registry.

+# Editions
+
+Vortex defines an evergrowing set of serializable array encodings, once written this can be read back by any future
+version of vortex.
+**Editions** are used to keep track of these encodings and talk about groups of encodings.
+
+The edition `core2026.07.0` (coming soon) is the first such edition containing all encodings currently
+enabled by the writer.
+Editions are additive so an edition that comes after a previous one contains all the encodings from the previous one
+and more.
+The writer can be configured with a set of different editions (e.g. `core2026.07.0` and `unstable2026.05.0` all stable
+encoding released before July 2026 and all unstable encodings from May 2026).
+
+Editions can be used to constrain your minimum required vortex reader, since latest version over vortex across all
+editions is the earliest version of vortex required to read that file.
+
+## Resolving an unknown-encoding error
+
+If a read failed with an unknown encoding ID and pointed you here, the reader met an encoding
+it does not support. Find the encoding ID in the [registry](#edition-registry) below:
+
+1. **The ID is listed under an edition.** The file is newer than your Vortex build. Upgrade to
+   at least that edition's required Vortex release and the file will read.
+2. **The ID is not listed anywhere.** The file was written outside the editions system, with a
+   custom, third-party, or experimental encoding. Ask the producer of the file how to read it,
+   or register the encoding with your session before reading. Tools that only inspect or
+   relocate data (rather than query it) can opt in to `allow_unknown`, which decodes
+   unrecognised encodings into inert placeholders.
+
+## Writing with an edition
+
+The default the writer targets a `core` edition lagging the latest vortex release by a few version giving delay before
+writing the latest vortex encodings to disk.
+Every file you write carries the read-forever guarantee. If a file would contain an encoding
+outside the targeted edition, the write fails immediately; edition violations never surface as
+someone else's read error later.
+
+Two knobs exist when the default is not what you want:
+
+- **Pin an older edition** when files must stay readable by deployments running older Vortex.
+- **Opt in to additional edition families.** Editions come in independently versioned,
+  additive families — `core` today, with families for more specialised encoding groups (for
+  example spatial encodings) possible later. A writer targets at most one edition per family
+  and may emit any encoding in their union; each encoding belongs to exactly one family.
+
+You can also opt out of editions entirely to write custom or experimental encodings. Doing so
+is an explicit choice that gives up the standardization guarantee — only readers that know your
+encodings can read those files.
+
+## How editions change
+
+A published edition is frozen — its encoding list never grows or shrinks. New encodings are
+staged in a **draft** edition and become guaranteed only when that draft is frozen as the next
+edition; each encoding's registry entry records the edition it joined in. In the future an
+encoding may be *deprecated*, meaning writers stop emitting it — but readers keep decoding it
+indefinitely, so deprecation never invalidates existing files.
+
+## Edition registry
+
+Coming soon..

Subject: [PATCH 015/498] Use PiecewiseSequence indices for FSL take (#8800)

## Summary

Ports the TakeSlices-style optimization to `Take(elements,
PiecewiseSequenceArray)` instead of introducing a value-wrapper API.

- FSL take now builds one start per selected list, a constant list
length, and a constant multiplier of `1`, then calls
`elements.take(piecewise_indices)`.
- Primitive, bool, decimal, VarBinView, and VarBin take paths detect
`PiecewiseSequenceArray` indices and gather contiguous ranges only when
`multipliers` is a constant unsigned `1`; non-unit multipliers fall back
through normal materialized-index take.
- Shared PiecewiseSequence execution handles general `start + j *
multiplier` sequences, while the current optimized consumers stay
explicitly contiguous.

## Validation

- `cargo fmt -p vortex-array`
- `cargo test -p vortex-array piecewise_sequence`
- `cargo check -p vortex-array`
- `cargo check -p vortex-array --benches`
- `git diff --check`

Subject: [PATCH 016/498] feat(vortex-geo): null-propagating scalar functions
 (#8803)

## What

Make the binary geo scalar functions (`ST_Distance`, `ST_Intersects`,
`ST_Contains`) null-propagating. A nullable geometry operand is now
allowed, and any row whose geometry input is null yields a `NULL`
result.

## Why

Spiral needs the geo predicates to accept nullable inputs to run
SpatialBench.

## How

A geo kernel decodes each operand into a `geo_types` geometry, and a
null row has no geometry to decode, so it can't compute over every row
and mask the nulls afterwards the way the numeric kernels do.

Instead, the shared `execute_null_propagating` dispatch drops the null
rows, computes only the rows valid in both operands, and scatters the
results back under the combined null mask. `return_dtype` is nullable
iff an operand is, and `validate_geometry_operands` no longer rejects
nullable operands.

Subject: [PATCH 017/498] feat: exploit PiecewiseSequence for faster take
 (#8802)

1. Extension pushes take down into its children. This ensures extension
types benefit from the other PiecewiseSequence optimizations.
2. Ensure `List(List(...(List(Primitive))).take(indices)` keeps
broadening the slices all the way down to the Primitive array.
3. Implement list view rebuild using PiecewiseSequence, since rebuild is
just take anyway!

Subject: [PATCH 018/498] Fix remaining flaky CodSpeed microbenchmarks (#8861)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

## Rationale for this change

- Closes: #8807

Three benchmarks stayed flaky after #8742, flipping between the same two
values on PRs that can't affect them. Same root causes and fixes as
#8742:

| Benchmark | Seen flaky on | Why | Fix |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `true_count_vortex_buffer[128]` | ±11.17% on 9 unrelated PRs (#8805,
#8811, #8812, #8820, #8843, #8803, …) | a 128-bit popcount measures
harness overhead and code layout, not the count | drop the 128 size |
| runend `compress[(100000, 4)]` | ±11.9% on #8805, #8750, #8856 |
allocates in the timed region; glibc malloc differs across runner images
| mimalloc as global allocator |
| `cast_decimal` `copy_*[65536]` | identical flags on #8838 and #8724 |
same glibc-malloc cause (512 KB alloc per iteration) | mimalloc as
global allocator |

Left alone: `compact_sliced[(4096, 90)]` (single sighting) and the CUDA
walltime benches (hosted-runner walltime noise, a runner config issue).

The allocator swap shifts every benchmark in the two touched binaries
once — see the comment below. Needs a one-time CodSpeed acknowledgment,
like #8742.

## What changes are included in this PR?

One commit per benchmark; bench files only. Ran `cargo check` + `clippy`
on the three bench targets, smoke-ran the binaries, `cargo +nightly
fmt`.

Subject: [PATCH 020/498] Specialize VarBin PiecewiseSequence takes (#8836)

## Summary
- move VarBin and VarBinView PiecewiseSequence take specializations out
of #8800 into this stacked PR
- keep the branch based directly on codex/piecewise-sequential-take
- preserve existing behavior: VarBin copies contiguous byte ranges,
VarBinView gathers view ranges while reusing backing data buffers

## Validation
- cargo +nightly fmt --all
- cargo check -p vortex-array

Subject: [PATCH 021/498] Validate untrusted footer metadata on open instead of
 panicking (#8867)

Closes: #8819

A fuzzed Vortex file whose footer segment map declared a segment past
the end of the file panicked while slicing the backing buffer during
open, instead of returning an error. This fixes that plus a few nearby
unchecked-slice / unchecked-shift panics in the same file-open and
array-decode paths:

- Footer parsing validates every segment's `offset + length` against the
file size (the #8819 root cause).
- `populate_initial_segments` bounds-checks the initial-read slice range
before slicing.
- `SerializedArray::from_flatbuffer_and_segment` uses checked offset
arithmetic and bounds-checks a buffer against its segment before
slicing.
- Alignment exponents from footer segment specs, postscript segments,
and array buffer descriptors go through a fallible
`Alignment::try_from_exponent` instead of `from_exponent`, which panics
on a too-large shift.

Subject: [PATCH 022/498] feat(onpair): promote OnPair to a stable read-only
 encoding (#8872)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

## Rationale for this change

OnPair has been living under `encodings/experimental/` while it
stabilized. We now
want OnPair-encoded files to be readable by default, without yet
committing to writing
them. This PR promotes OnPair to a stable encoding but enables it on the
**read path
only** — the compressor/writer stays gated behind the
`unstable_encodings` feature so
we can turn on writing in a follow-up.

## What changes are included in this PR?

- Move the crate from `encodings/experimental/onpair` →
`encodings/onpair` (100% file
renames) and drop it from the "Experimental encodings" group in the
workspace
  `Cargo.toml`.
- Register the OnPair reader unconditionally in
`register_default_encodings`, so any
  session can decode OnPair arrays and push down filters against them.
- Keep the writer/compressor disabled by default:
  - `ALLOWED_ENCODINGS` (file write strategy) only inserts OnPair under
    `#[cfg(feature = "unstable_encodings")]`.
- btrblocks `ALL_SCHEMES` and the `onpair` scheme module are gated
behind
`unstable_encodings`, so the default compressor never selects OnPair.
- Tests:
- New `default_writer_does_not_allow_onpair` asserts OnPair is absent
from the default
write allowlist; the reader-registration test asserts OnPair is
registered with a
    Filter execute-parent kernel.
- btrblocks scheme-selection tests that exercise writing are gated
behind
    `unstable_encodings` and renamed to make the scope explicit
    (`test_unstable_all_schemes_includes_onpair`,
    `test_unstable_default_btrblocks_compressor_selects_onpair`).

Verified locally:
- Default (reader-only) config: `vortex-onpair`, `vortex-btrblocks`,
`vortex-file` —
  169 tests passed.
- `unstable_encodings` (writer-enabled) config: 176 tests passed (the
extra 7 are the
  feature-gated write-path tests).
- `cargo clippy --all-targets --all-features` (affected crates) clean;
  `cargo +nightly fmt --all` clean; `git diff --check` clean.

## What APIs are changed? Are there any user-facing changes?

- The `vortex-onpair` crate moves to `encodings/onpair` (path only;
crate name and
  version are unchanged).
- User-facing behavior change: OnPair-encoded files are now **readable
by default**.
Writing OnPair still requires the `unstable_encodings` feature — no
default write
  behavior changes.

Subject: [PATCH 023/498] break[array]: Remove unimplemented child() method
 from VTable implementations (#8870)

Remove unneeded methods `child` and `nchildren` from the vtable these
always have a default impl and so are uneeded.

# Break
While this is a VTable break it likely used outside of vortex.

## Rationale for this change

The PiecewiseSequence ListView rebuild now preserves dictionary encoding
for large lists. The cuda export regression test still expected the
previous, incidentally canonicalised Int32 child layout

Subject: [PATCH 025/498] Route CUDA pruning io through host memory (#8862)

## Rationale for this change

For zonemap segments we should be using the host memory in cuda reads,
but for the data segments we should be using the pinned buffer pool
reader that ships segments to the gpu.

If we read every segment with the cuda reader then we would get the
zonemap segments shipped to the device by default, and to use them in
pruning we have to get them back to the host

## What changes are included in this PR?

Cuda reads now use a routing vortex read at implementation that picks
zonemap segments and routes them to the host reader, whereas data
segments route to the gpu reader

Subject: [PATCH 026/498] Remove mutable state from Vortex open options (#8879)

## Rationale for this change

Vortex open options shouldn't have mutable state, so return the mutable
state separately

Subject: [PATCH 027/498] bool array slice to support device buffers (#8875)

## Rationale for this change

bool slicing on device buffers currently panic, because we assert host
buffers when using slice on BitBuffer

## What changes are included in this PR?

extract the slicing bounds check logic from BitBuffer, use it for both
the host and the device buffer backed bool arrays

Subject: [PATCH 028/498] Use cursor copies for PiecewiseSequence slices
 (#8832)

## Summary

- add a shared checked cursor-copy helper for PiecewiseSequence slice
gathering
- replace `extend_from_slice` in the primitive, decimal, VarBinView, and
VarBin PiecewiseSequence consumers
- keep the safety checks explicit: each copy verifies the destination
cursor range against the declared output length and capacity, and
callers verify the final cursor before `set_len`

## Validation

- `cargo +nightly fmt --all`
- `cargo clippy -p vortex-array --all-targets --all-features -- -D
warnings`
- `cargo bench -p vortex-array --bench listview_rebuild`
- `cargo bench -p vortex-array --bench cast_decimal`
- `cargo test -p vortex-array piecewise_sequence`

Subject: [PATCH 029/498] feat[edition]: session-registered editions defitions
 (#8871)

## Rationale for this change

Any encoding that vortex will write using built-in layout strategies or
compressors will come from an edition.

## What changes are included in this PR?

- Adds the `vortex-editions` crate and session variable.
- Defines editions for core and unstable encodings from vortex 0.36.0
until today

+//! [`EditionInclusion`] per encoding stating that it is a member of an edition *and every
+//! later edition of the same family*. Any crate can register declarations into a session,
+//! so inclusions can live next to the encoding they describe.
+//!
+//! An edition is a **draft** until its [`Edition::min_vortex_version`] is recorded —
+//! recording it is the act of freezing. The per-edition encoding sets are computed from the
+//! registered declarations by [`EditionSession::encodings_in`], and correctness is enforced
+//! by unit tests: [`EditionSession::validate`] checks a whole registry, and
+//! [`test_harness::validate_edition`] validates one edition's constraints — call it once in
+//! the `#[cfg(test)]` module of each edition definition.
+//!
+//! This crate defines only the types and the session variable; the first-party edition
+//! declarations live in the public `vortex` crate (`vortex::editions`), which seeds them
+//! into the default session. See the published spec at
+//! <https://docs.vortex.dev/specs/editions.html>.

Subject: [PATCH 030/498] Lazily untranspose DeltaArray validity and depend on
 fastlanes bit transpose code (#8725)

Delta array unnecessarily untraposes whole validity whenever it's
queried. This
pr avoids this by laziliy wrapping it in a TransposedBool array that
does
untranspose when necessary.

While we're at it we remove the bit transpose logic that has been moved
to fastlanes repo

-//! Fast implementations of the `FastLanes` 1024-bit transpose.
-//!
-//! The `FastLanes` transpose is a fixed permutation of 1024 bits (128 bytes) that
-//! enables SIMD parallelism for encodings like delta and RLE. This module provides
-//! optimized implementations for different x86 SIMD instruction sets.
-//!
-//! The key insight is that each output byte is formed by extracting the SAME bit
-//! position from 8 different input bytes at stride 16. The input byte groups follow
-//! the `FL_ORDER` permutation pattern.

### Apache Arrow: Potential use-after-free when reading IPC file with
pre-buffering
[CVE-2026-25087](https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-25087) /
[GHSA-rgxp-2hwp-jwgg](https://redirect.github.com/advisories/GHSA-rgxp-2hwp-jwgg)

<details>
<summary>More information</summary>

#### Details
Use After Free vulnerability in Apache Arrow C++.

This issue affects Apache Arrow C++ from 15.0.0 through 23.0.0. It can
be triggered when reading an Arrow IPC file (but not an IPC stream) with
pre-buffering enabled, if the IPC file contains data with variadic
buffers (such as Binary View and String View data). Depending on the
number of variadic buffers in a record batch column and on the temporal
sequence of multi-threaded IO, a write to a dangling pointer could
occur. The value (a `std::shared_ptr<Buffer>` object) that is written to
the dangling pointer is not under direct control of the attacker.

Pre-buffering is disabled by default but can be enabled using a specific
C++ API call (`RecordBatchFileReader::PreBufferMetadata`). The
functionality is not exposed in language bindings (Python, Ruby, C
GLib), so these bindings are not vulnerable.

The most likely consequence of this issue would be random crashes or
memory corruption when reading specific kinds of IPC files. If the
application allows ingesting IPC files from untrusted sources, this
could plausibly be exploited for denial of service. Inducing more
targeted kinds of misbehavior (such as confidential data extraction from
the running process) depends on memory allocation and multi-threaded IO
temporal patterns that are unlikely to be easily controlled by an
attacker.

Advice for users of Arrow C++:

1. check whether you enable pre-buffering on the IPC file reader
(using `RecordBatchFileReader::PreBufferMetadata`)

2. if so, either disable pre-buffering (which may have adverse
performance consequences), or switch to Arrow 23.0.1 which is not
vulnerable

Subject: [PATCH 032/498] Expose FFI runtime worker pool control (#8789)

## Rationale for this change

The FFI runtime is caller-driven by default: it owns no threads, and
host threads drive the shared executor while inside FFI calls.
Concurrent calls from multiple host threads can provide parallelism, but
a single host thread cannot execute internally spawned work in parallel.

## What changes are included in this PR?

Exposes process-global controls for configuring optional Vortex-owned
worker threads for the FFI runtime. The default remains zero workers,
preserving the existing host-thread-driven execution model. Configuring
a non-zero count opts into a Vortex-owned background thread pool;
setting it back to zero restores the default.

 # Vortex C bindings
 
+## Runtime threading
+
+The FFI uses a shared, caller-driven runtime. By default Vortex creates no runtime worker threads:
+the host threads currently executing FFI calls drive the runtime. Multiple host threads making
+concurrent FFI calls can drive runtime work in parallel while keeping thread ownership entirely in
+the host application.
+
+Applications that want a single FFI operation to make progress on additional threads may opt into
+Vortex-owned background workers with `vx_runtime_set_worker_threads`. This is a process-global
+setting shared by every FFI session. Calling it with a non-zero count changes the threading model
+from host-thread-only execution to a combination of host threads and Vortex-owned workers. Calling
+it with zero signals the background workers to stop and restores the host-thread-only
+configuration.
+
+Applications that already supply concurrency through their own host threads should leave the
+worker count at its default of zero to avoid oversubscription.
+

Subject: [PATCH 033/498] Add `UnionValue` and `UnionScalar` (#8838)

_Revived from https://github.com/vortex-data/vortex/pull/8791 since too
many things have changed._

## Summary

Tracking issue: https://github.com/vortex-data/vortex/issues/8769

Adds scalar implementation for `Union` type in Vortex.

## Changes

Adds `UnionValue` which exists inside of `ScalarValue` and the typed
view `UnionScalar<'a>`.

```rust
pub struct UnionValue {
    /// The type ID selecting a variant in the enclosing [`DType::Union`].
    type_id: u8,

    /// The selected variant scalar.
    ///
    /// This is boxed to break the recursive layout between [`ScalarValue`]
    /// and [`UnionValue`].
    value: `Option<Box<ScalarValue>>`,
}
```

### Inner Nulls with Type IDs

The type above implies that type IDs MATTER for equality of nulls. 2
values with the same union type might both be null, **but if the type
IDs are different, we consider them NOT equal.** Please respond below if
you think this is the incorrect behavior. I think that this might be
different from arrow's semantics, but because we are already
distinguishing from them with the outer nullability, I think this is
fine.

### Value type

~~I was debating if we should instead store a `Option<Box<ScalarValue>>`
instead of just `Box<Scalar>` (which carries an extra dtype and an extra
allocation even if the value is null). I think it is nice to have the
dtype in there for implementation ease. Not sure if it's worth it.~~

We use `Option<Box<ScalarValue>>` instead of `Box<Scalar>` so that we do
not store `DType` in multiple places. If we did so, we run into
synchronization issues with casting.

### Casting

For casting, this only allows identity and null casting (like everything
else), otherwise it just panics with unimplemented. We probably want to
figure this out later as it is quite valuable to cast union types.

## Default and Zero value semantics

Finally, the "default value" and "zero value" semantics here are as
such:

- `default_value(nullable Union)` -> returns an outer null.
- `default_value(non-nullable Union)` -> **panics** because there is no
designated default variant.
- `zero_value(Union)` -> **panics** because a Union has no canonical
zero variant.
- `is_zero()` on a null Union -> returns `None`.
- `is_zero()` on a valid Union -> returns `Some(false)`, even when its
child is numerically zero.

Note that none of these behaviors depend on variant ordering. And also I
do think that it is possible that we just choose the first variant of a
union to be the default, I think this is kind of opinionated, and it
also doesn't solve the issue where there are 0 variants (empty union /
void type). So I would prefer if we do this in a separate change.

Subject: [PATCH 034/498] Use PiecewiseSequence for List take elements (#8833)

This is just a simplification. List::take already had a specialized
implementation. The new PiecewiseSequence specializations in various
primitive arrays supersede this change.

---

codex:

## Summary
- replace List take's dense per-element index expansion with
PiecewiseSequence element runs
- preserve FSL-style null handling: null index/source rows emit
zero-length placeholder runs while output validity still comes from
Validity::take
- let the elements child choose its own optimized take implementation
through the normal ArrayRef::take path

## Validation
- cargo +nightly fmt --all
- cargo test -p vortex-array arrays::list::compute::take
- cargo check -p vortex-array
- cargo clippy -p vortex-array --all-targets --all-features -- -D
warnings
- git diff --check

Subject: [PATCH 035/498] Add PiecewiseSequence take microbenchmarks (#8830)

## Summary

- add `piecewise_sequence_take_primitive` to compare constant-length
PiecewiseSequence take against dense lengths and reifying constant
lengths
- add `take_slices_to_buffer_matrix` to compare extend/cursor-copy loops
with and without preverification plus unchecked slicing

## Validation

- `cargo +nightly fmt --all`
- `cargo clippy -p vortex-array --all-targets --all-features -- -D
warnings`
- `cargo bench -p vortex-array --bench
piecewise_sequence_take_primitive`
- `cargo bench -p vortex-array --bench take_slices_to_buffer_matrix`

Subject: [PATCH 037/498] Prevent non empty unions and clarify null docs
 (#8882)

## Rationale for this change

Tracking issue: https://github.com/vortex-data/vortex/issues/8769

## What changes are included in this PR?

As discussed offline, we have decided to disallow empty unions because
we do not think there is a good usecase for it. And as you can see in
the diffs here, that meant we could not choose a good default for the
"zero value" of scalars.

This PR prevents empty unions, as well as clarifies some of the null
docs around the union scalar accessors.

## What APIs are changed? Are there any user-facing changes?

Some name changes to make things more obvious

+//! Fast implementations of the `FastLanes` 1024-bit transpose.
+//!
+//! The `FastLanes` transpose is a fixed permutation of 1024 bits (128 bytes) that
+//! enables SIMD parallelism for encodings like delta and RLE. This module provides
+//! optimized implementations for different x86 SIMD instruction sets.
+//!
+//! The key insight is that each output byte is formed by extracting the SAME bit
+//! position from 8 different input bytes at stride 16. The input byte groups follow
+//! the `FL_ORDER` permutation pattern.

Subject: [PATCH 039/498] Masking `List`-typed array preserves zctl (#8889)

Masking a `List` array preserves its non-validity children, so zctl
should be preserved as well.

Subject: [PATCH 041/498] feat(vortex-geo): per-row bounding-box scalar
 function (vortex.geo.envelope) (#8831)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

## What

Adds `GeoEnvelope` (`vortex.geo.envelope`): the per-row 2-D axis-aligned
bounding box of a native geometry column, returned as a native
`geoarrow.box` (`Rect`) column.

The consumer is a row-oriented spatial-join operator that bulk-loads an
in-memory R-tree (`rstar::RTree::bulk_load` takes individual objects),
so it needs one box per geometry, read back row by row.

## How

- Walk the nested `ListView` storage down to the leaf coordinate
`Struct`, tracking which top-level row owns each coordinate, then
min/max x/y per row over the raw `f64` buffers.
- A `Rect` input is the identity (the bounding box of a box is itself).
- 2-D only: only the `x`/`y` leaf ordinates are read; any `z`/`m` are
ignored — matching the `GeometryAabb` aggregate.
- A null row, or a valid-but-empty geometry, yields a null box, so the
output is always nullable. `validity()` returns `None`, since the output
null mask is not derivable from the operand's validity (empty geometries
introduce nulls even over a non-nullable operand).

Subject: [PATCH 042/498] non_nan_check doesn't try to cast arbitrary scalars
 to primitive (#8891)

non_nan_check tried to unconditionally cast Scalar to PrimitiveScalar -
these
methods are error producing but in this case we never care about error
and want
to ignore those cases. It's cheaper to directly check dtype for float
type

Subject: [PATCH 045/498] Add file-level user metadata (#8740)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Adds optional file-level metadata to the Vortex file format: a set of
string-keyed, opaque byte segments referenced from the postscript, for
consumers that need to attach identity or annotation to a file (Iceberg
field IDs, an Arrow-metadata round-trip, provenance). Keys and their
segment locators live in the postscript and are read at open; the opaque
values load only when a reader opts in with `include_metadata`, resolved
one locator at a time through the file's existing segment source —
served from the initial footer read when they fall inside it, otherwise
a targeted read. A default open never materializes them and makes no
metadata-driven read. The `DType`, its FlatBuffers and protobuf
serialization, and the scan path are unchanged; the wire change is a
single additive `Postscript` field, so old readers skip it and the file
version stays `1`.

This revives #7954 (the original file-metadata-segments work) rebased
onto develop, with the read path reshaped so metadata is never folded
into the footer's contiguous tail read and never keeps that buffer
alive: values are resolved per-locator and copied out. `Footer` carries
only the locators, so a cached footer is identical whether or not the
opener asked for metadata, and one file's metadata can't surface for
another through the multi-file cache. Parsing a segment alignment from
an untrusted postscript now returns an error rather than panicking on an
out-of-range exponent (the TUI inspector included). The public read API
is additive — `VortexFile` gains metadata accessors and
`VortexOpenOptions` an `include_metadata` opt-in — and `Footer::new` is
unchanged; the generated `Postscript` FlatBuffer gains a field, as any
additive schema change does.

 2. a `layout` segment containing the root `Layout`
 3. a `statistics` segment containing file-level per-field statistics (e.g., minima and maxima of each field/column, for whole-file pruning)
 4. a `footer` segment containing a dictionary-encoded _segment map_, and other shared configuration such as compression and encryption schemes
+5. up to 16 user-defined `metadata` segments, each identified by a unique, non-empty UTF-8 key of at most 64 bytes
+
+The postscript carries a locator (offset, length, and alignment) for each metadata segment that is
+present; a file written without user metadata (and any file predating this feature) carries none.
+Readers do not load the opaque metadata values by default. Opt-in metadata reads resolve each
+locator separately, allowing values outside the initial file-tail read to be fetched without reading
+the intervening file contents.

From: Joe Isaacs <joe.isaacs@live.co.uk>
Date: Wed, 22 Jul 2026 17:33:05 +0100
Subject: [PATCH 046/498] refactor: store valid IDs in serialization context
 (#8897)

The serialization context only needs registry IDs for filtering, so it
now snapshots those IDs instead of retaining the entire registry.

Subject: [PATCH 048/498] Add `UnionArray` (#8834)

## Rationale for this change

Tracking issue: #8769

This is the array layer of the Union stack. The compute integration has
been split into the stacked follow-up #8884.

## What changes are included in this PR?

- Adds the canonical sparse `UnionArray` encoding with nullable u8 type
IDs and row-aligned children.
- Adds construction and invariant validation, typed accessors, scalar
access, top-level validity, serialization, and session registration.
- Registers UnionArray as the canonical representation for Union dtypes.
- Leaves filter, take, slice, mask, cast, aggregate, constant/chunked
canonicalization, and compression support to #8884.

I think that this is a mostly straightforward implementation. The one
implementation thing I will shout out is that we do not validate that
the entire type IDs array has valid type IDs. If we come across an
invalid type ID, we just panic, and that is similar behavior to
`DictArray` validation.

## What APIs are changed? Are there any user-facing changes?

Adds the public Union, UnionArray, UnionArrayExt, and UnionDataParts
APIs.

Subject: [PATCH 053/498] Bypass unknown aggregates in `ZonedLayout` (#8904)

## Rationale for this change

Tracking issue: https://github.com/vortex-data/vortex/issues/8901

Resolves the unknown aggregate subissue.

## What changes are included in this PR?

Allows us to ignore unknown aggregates in `ZonedLayout` by simply
bypassing any pruning. Even if the query might be slow because of this
(it will be a full scan), it is better than erroring.

## What APIs are changed? Are there any user-facing changes?

Changes `to_aggregate_fn` to `to_aggregate_fn_opt` and
`aggregate_fns_from_specs` to `try_aggregate_fns_from_specs`

Subject: [PATCH 056/498] `Decimal` Add/Sub kernels (#8724)

Adds shared infrastructure for decimal arithmetic and native Add/Sub
kernels.

### Operand alignment

The execution kernel requires both operands to have the same precision
and scale (nullability may differ). Addition and subtraction can then
operate directly and exactly on the unscaled integers because both
values use the same power-of-ten factor.

Vortex's optional coercion pass can align operands with different
decimal dtypes before execution. Query-engine integrations may instead
insert their own planner casts. If neither layer aligns the operands,
the kernel rejects them rather than performing an implicit per-kernel
rescale.

### Result precision

Adding or subtracting two `p`-digit integers can require one additional
carry digit. This PR follows the Arrow/Hive result-type rule for already
aligned operands, capped at Vortex's maximum decimal precision:

```text
decimal(p, s) +/- decimal(p, s) -> decimal(min(p + 1, 76), s)
```

The scale remains unchanged because the operation is performed on
integers at the same scale. For example:

```text
decimal(2, 0): 60 + 60 = 120 -> decimal(3, 0)
decimal(5, 2): 123.45 + 0.55 = 124.00 -> decimal(6, 2)
```

Widening the logical precision can also widen the native storage used
for the result. The kernel executes at the smallest native width capable
of representing the result dtype, including the important `decimal(18,
s) -> decimal(19, s)` (`i64 -> i128`) and `decimal(38, s) -> decimal(39,
s)` (`i128 -> i256`) transitions. Inputs may already use a wider
physical representation; they are converted into the selected working
width before arithmetic.

At precision 76 the result dtype cannot widen to precision 77, so it
stays at precision 76 and the kernel explicitly checks the mathematical
result against the precision-76 bound.

### Nulls, constants, and errors

- Output nullability is the union of the input nullabilities, while a
lane is valid only when both input lanes are valid.
- Validity is combined and materialized once. Arithmetic runs only on
valid lanes, so arbitrary values underneath null lanes cannot trigger an
overflow error.
- Any native-width overflow or result-precision overflow on a valid lane
returns an error for the operation.
- Constant and all-null operands are handled directly instead of first
materializing full decimal buffers. Constant folding is preserved, and
empty Add/Sub inputs produce a correctly widened empty dtype without
evaluating a constant value.
- Decimal Mul/Div remain unsupported because they require separate
result-type and rescaling rules.

### Implementation

- Splits numeric execution into
`numeric/{mod,primitive,decimal,tests}.rs`, mirroring the compare
implementation.
- Canonicalizes encoded decimal operands through
`execute::<DecimalArray>`, while extracting constant and null operands
directly.
- Uses a checked lane loop at the result's working width, followed by an
explicit precision-bound check.
- Shares `widened_buffer` from `arrays/decimal` between comparison and
numeric execution.

### Comparative performance

Measured over arrays with ~60k elements, using same result width in
Vortex and Arrow.

 (#8926)

If you had had a branch with version x.y.z and then you rebased
and version updated to x.y.z+1 or similar, extract code would
use the old folder and fail the build with "duckdb.h not found".

Subject: [PATCH 058/498] Read the data child directly when the zone map is
 empty (#8905)

## Rationale for this change

Tracking issue (only somewhat related):
https://github.com/vortex-data/vortex/issues/8901

The unknown-aggregate fallback and the legacy zero-length-zone path both
mean "no usable zone map", so they should read the data the same way.
And I think it is fine to just remove the degenerate `ZonedLayout`
parent.

## What changes are included in this PR?

When a `ZonedLayout` has `zone_len == 0`, `new_reader` returns the data
child's reader directly instead of a passthrough `ZonedReader`, and the
now-unreachable `zone_len == 0` branch in `ZonedReader` is removed.

This shouldn't result in any behavior change.

Subject: [PATCH 059/498] Fix Kleene boolean dictionary pushdown (#8929)

## Why

Dictionary values pushdown rewrites `f(dict(codes, values), constant)`
as
`dict(codes, f(values, constant))`. At a null code, the original
evaluates
`f(null, constant)`, while the rewritten dictionary is always null. This
requires `f` to be
strict: a null dictionary argument must force a null result while
siblings remain unmasked.

Kleene booleans are not strict: `false AND null = false` and `true OR
null = true`.
With values `[true, false]`, codes `[0, 1, null]`, and constant `false`,
direct AND execution
returns `[false, false, false]`; the old optimization returned `[false,
false, null]`. OR with
constant `true` had the dual bug.

## Fix

Mark Kleene `AND`/`OR` as null-sensitive, consistent with
`Binary::validity()` already returning
`None` for them, and add both dictionary regression tests.

Declining the pushdown is always sound because it leaves the original
expression unchanged. The
trade-off is that safe instances such as `and(dict, true)` also stop
pushing down: a function-level
flag cannot inspect the sibling constant. If needed, array-level Kleene
folds such as
`and(x, false) -> false` and `or(x, true) -> true` can recover those
cases soundly.

Subject: [PATCH 062/498] Exclude Markdown from ruff format (#8940)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

## Rationale for this change

The `Python (lint)` CI job is failing on `develop`: CI installs ruff
unpinned via `uvx`, and ruff 0.16 started formatting Python code blocks
inside Markdown files by default. Three docs
(`docs/user-guide/spark.md`, `java/vortex-spark/README.md`,
`vortex-python-cuda/README.md`) use deliberate comment alignment in
their examples and now fail `ruff format --check`.

## What changes are included in this PR?

Adds `exclude = ["*.md"]` under `[tool.ruff.format]`, restoring the
pre-0.16 behavior (Python sources only — 137 files — are formatted;
`ruff check` is unaffected). Verified locally with ruff 0.16.0: `uvx
ruff format --check .` and `uvx ruff check .` both pass.

## What APIs are changed? Are there any user-facing changes?

None — lint configuration only.

Subject: [PATCH 063/498] Add `UnionArray` compute functions (#8884)

## Rationale for this change

Tracking issue: https://github.com/vortex-data/vortex/issues/7882

This PR adds the straightforward compute support for canonical sparse
Union arrays while keeping operations with unresolved nullability or
placeholder semantics in focused follow-ups.

## What changes are included in this PR?

- Adds canonical filter execution and slice and mask reductions for
UnionArray, following the same structural execution patterns as
neighboring canonical dtypes.
- Adds validity-mask execution while preserving row alignment across
type IDs and sparse children.
- Recursively compresses the type IDs and every sparse child.
- Computes uncompressed size as the checked sum of the type IDs and
sparse children.
- Adds focused coverage for structural operations, outer null masking,
and size accounting.

## Deferred follow-ups

- Take, including nullable-index outer-null propagation, and dictionary
execution that depends on it.
- Union casts and outer-nullability conformance coverage.
- Constant Union canonicalization and inactive-child placeholder
construction.
- Chunked Union canonicalization, including a representation for empty
chunked unions.

The source TODOs record the required semantics at each deferred dispatch
point.

Subject: [PATCH 064/498] perf(array): hoist decimal same-scale cast plan
 (#8932)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

## Summary

- Evaluate the `SameScale` cast plan once for each array.
- Use a direct closure for each value in a same-scale cast.
- Use `cast_decimal_buffer` for dense, null, and masked output buffers.
- Keep the existing operation for all other cast plans.

## Problem

The previous code called `DecimalCastPlan::cast` for each value. That
function matched the cast plan for each value.

The benchmark profile uses 16 code-generation units and no LTO. An
unrelated source addition changed the LLVM output for this function. The
nullable copy benchmark increased from approximately 65 µs to 99 µs.

Samply showed the same hot call path in both binaries:

```text
try_map_masked_into -> DecimalCastPlan::cast
```

The slow binary used a larger function and more stack loads and stores.
The new code moves the common plan match outside the value loop. This
makes the loop independent of that match.

## Benchmarks

Command:

```console
cargo bench -p vortex-array --bench cast_decimal -- --sample-count 100 --min-time 3 --max-time 6 --color never
```

| benchmark | develop median | this PR median | change |
|---|---:|---:|---:|
| `copy_non_nullable[65536]` | 70.10 µs | 41.18 µs | -41.3% |
| `copy_nullable[65536]` | 65.11 µs | 56.44 µs | -13.3% |
| `in_place_non_nullable[65536]` | 590.5 ns | 610.7 ns | +20.2 ns |
| `in_place_nullable[65536]` | 680.5 ns | 690.7 ns | +10.2 ns |

The in-place cases do not use the changed buffer path. Their differences
are 10 ns and 20 ns.

## Verification

- `cargo nextest run -p vortex-array -E
'test(/arrays::decimal::compute::cast::tests/)'` — 23 passed
- `cargo clippy --all-targets --all-features`
- `cargo +nightly fmt --all --check`

## AI assistance

This PR was prepared with OpenAI Codex. The human author reviewed the
code, benchmark results, profile data, and test results.

Subject: [PATCH 065/498] perf(cuda): decode FSST strings with GPU-built Arrow
 offsets (#8921)

Keep FSST in the CUDA-compatible BtrBlocks writer and export decoded
strings with standard offset-based Arrow layouts.

Build and validate Arrow i32 offsets on the GPU with a generic length
conversion and CUB scan, avoiding per-batch length and offset round
trips through host memory. Decode device-resident FSST metadata and
validity through CUDA so staged files import into cuDF as verified owned
strings.

Subject: [PATCH 066/498] duckdb: pushdown expressions with LIMIT (#8943)

If we select from a VIEW, and the query selection from a VIEW has a
LIMIT,
duckdb inserts a STREAMING_LIMIT node between a LOGICAL_PROJECTION and a
LOGICAL_GET which prevents pushdown. Account for that in the optimizer
pass.

Replace statpopgen's 1 query to array_length's non-deprecated variant.

#8764

Subject: [PATCH 067/498] feat[compressor]: require schemes to declare their
 produced encodings (#8944)

## Summary

Adds a required `Scheme::produced_encodings() -> Vec<ArrayId>` method
returning the array encodings a scheme may itself introduce into its
compressed output. Cascaded children are compressed by other schemes,
which declare their own encodings, so only encodings constructed
directly by `compress` belong here; canonical arrays the scheme merely
rearranges do not need to be declared.

`BtrBlocksCompressorBuilder::retain_allowed_encodings` uses these
declarations to drop any scheme that could produce an encoding outside a
permitted set, so an encoding policy can be enforced *before*
compression rather than being rejected after the fact.

Subject: [PATCH 069/498] vortex-jni includes vortex-geo, jni arrow
 import/export uses session methods (#8914)

For iceberg support we want to include geo types, we already have all
the logic
in vortex-geo. Adding vortex-geo exposed a bug where we weren't
correctly using
session to export dtypes. vortex-jni by default bundles vortex-geo

Subject: [PATCH 071/498] break: new layout tree vtable (#8910)

This is a API break, but *NOT* a wire break.

This PR moves the `VTable` implementation from the old VTable with a
macro implementation to the new one closer to `ArrayRef`.

We have removed the `with_children` method for now. I would expect that
most usages of this where to change the `LayoutReader` not the Layout
directly.

-//! An experimental structural layout for list-typed columns. Note that this is expected to change.
-//!
-//! [`ListLayout`] decomposes a list column into independently configurable child layouts:
-//! `elements`, `offsets`, and, for nullable lists, `validity`. Keeping the children independent allows
-//! each child to use its own configurable layout and lets nested list elements (e.g. with `List<List>`) be decomposed recursively.
-//!
-//! This provides benefits such as:
-//! * Reading only the children needed to evaluate an expression. For example, `ListLength` does
-//!   not need to read list elements.
-//! * Restricting element reads to the range covered by the selected outer rows, avoiding elements
-//!   belonging exclusively to unselected leading or trailing lists.
-//! * Allowing each child to use its own compression, chunking, and pruning strategy.

Subject: [PATCH 072/498] Introduce array_slots macro for type-safe array slot
 access (#8912)

## Rationale for this change

This PR introduces a new `#[array_slots]` procedural macro that provides
type-safe, ergonomic access to array child slots. Previously, array
implementations used manual constant definitions (e.g., `VALIDITY_SLOT =
0`, `METADATA_SLOT = 1`) and error-prone index-based slot access via
`slots[idx]`. This approach was repetitive, error-prone, and lacked
compile-time safety.

## What changes are included in this PR?

- **Refactored array implementations**: Updated all array types to use
the macro:
  - `ParquetVariantArray` (parquet-variant encoding)
  - `FSSTArray` (fsst encoding)
  - `ALPRDArray` (alp encoding)
  - `ListArray`, `ListViewArray`, `FixedSizeListArray` (core arrays)
  - `VarBinArray`, `VarBinViewArray` (core arrays)
  - `BoolArray`, `DecimalArray`, `PrimitiveArray` (core arrays)
  - `VariantArray` (core array)
  - `RLEArray`, `DeltaArray`, `FoRArray` (fastlanes encodings)
  - `RunEndArray` (runend encoding)
  - `ZigZagArray` (zigzag encoding)
  - `ZstdArray` (zstd encoding)
  - `PcoArray` (pco encoding)
  - `DecimalBytePartsArray` (decimal-byte-parts encoding)

Subject: [PATCH 074/498] feat[edition]: add enabled-editions selection to the
 session (#8945)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

## Summary

Introduces `EnabledEditions`, a session variable recording the editions
a writer is permitted to emit — at most one per family, with a newer or
older edition from the same family replacing the previous selection.
This is deliberately separate from `EditionSession`: **registration**
describes what a session knows how to reason about, while **enabling**
is the explicit writer policy.

Subject: [PATCH 075/498] Enable metadata-only mask reduction for constant
 Boolean masks (#8934)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

## Rationale for this change

`MaskReduceAdaptor` only reduced a `mask` scalar function into its input
when the
mask child was a concrete `Bool` array. A `Constant` non-nullable
Boolean is just
as metadata-readable, so rejecting it forced masking through
`execute_constant`,
which casts the input — problematic for dtypes without cast support.

## What changes are included in this PR?

- Accept both `Bool` and `Constant` mask children in
`MaskReduceAdaptor`.
`Mask::return_dtype` guarantees the mask is `Bool(NonNullable)`, so a
`Constant`
child is a non-nullable Boolean. Every `MaskReduce` impl threads the
mask into a
  `Validity::Array` or re-applies `Mask` to a child, so this is
  encoding-independent. Arbitrary encoded masks stay excluded.
- Regression tests asserting constant `true`/`false` masks reduce into
the input
  encoding instead of surviving as a `ScalarFn` wrapper.

## What APIs are changed? Are there any user-facing changes?

None — internal optimizer change only.

Subject: [PATCH 076/498] fix(vortex-row): decimal sort keys are not
 memcmp-comparable across chunks (#8937)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

## The bug

`ORDER BY` / top-k on a decimal column silently returns wrongly ordered
rows whenever the column spans chunks whose physical value widths
differ. No error is raised; the output looks plausible.

### Example

Take a `DECIMAL(7, 5)` tip column and `ORDER BY tip DESC`. Two rows land
in different chunks, and compression picks a different physical width
for each chunk:

| row | unscaled value | chunk's physical type |
|---|---|---|
| `tip = 0.00484` | `484` | **i16** (484 doesn't fit i8) |
| `tip = 0.00091` | `91` | **i8** (every value in its chunk fits i8) |

A descending sort key is built per chunk: write the value big-endian,
flip the sign bit, invert the value bytes (for DESC), and prefix the
non-null sentinel `0xFE`. Before this fix, the number of value bytes
came from the *chunk's* type:

```
tip = 0.00484, encoded at its chunk's width (i16 → 2 value bytes)

    big-endian bytes      01 E4
    flip sign bit         81 E4
    invert for DESC       7E 1B
    prepend sentinel   FE 7E 1B      ← 3-byte key

tip = 0.00091, encoded at its chunk's width (i8 → 1 value byte)

    big-endian bytes      5B
    flip sign bit         DB
    invert for DESC       24
    prepend sentinel   FE 24         ← 2-byte key
```

The sorter compares keys with `memcmp`:

```
key(0.00484) = FE 7E 1B
key(0.00091) = FE 24
               ─┬ ─┬
                │  └─ byte 1 decides: 0x24 < 0x7E, so key(0.00091) is the smaller key
                └─ byte 0: equal
```

But byte 1 means different things in the two keys: in the 3-byte key it
is the *high-order* byte of a two-byte number, while in the 2-byte key
it is the *only* byte of a one-byte number. The comparison is
meaningless — and DESC encoding promises **bigger value ⇒ smaller key**,
so the smaller key wins: the sorter ranks `0.00091` as a larger tip than
`0.00484`. Ascending breaks symmetrically.

With this fix, both chunks encode at the width the *declared* dtype
implies (`DECIMAL(7,5)` → i32 → 4 value bytes), whatever their physical
storage:

```
key(0.00484) = FE 7F FF FE 1B
key(0.00091) = FE 7F FF FF A4
                        ─┬
                         └─ byte 3 decides: 0xFE < 0xFF, so key(0.00484) is smaller
```

Equal-length keys, every byte position aligned — `0.00484` correctly
sorts first in the descending order.

## The fix

Derive the key width from the declared dtype, so every chunk of a column
encodes identical-length keys:

- `decimal_key_type` (vortex-row): the dtype-derived width, used by both
the sizing pass and the encode dispatch.
- `converted_buffer<W>` (vortex-array, next to `widened_buffer`):
returns a chunk's values at exactly width `W`. Zero-copy when the chunk
is already stored at `W` (the common case), lossless widening otherwise,
and an error for any value that violates its declared precision, such
values previously encoded a garbage key silently.

The encode loop itself is unchanged; only where it reads its values from
changed.

Subject: [PATCH 077/498] feat(fuzz): row-encoding fuzz target for vortex-row
 (#8955)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Follow-up to #8937, where @a10y suggested a fuzz target for vortex-row.

## What it does

Adds a `row_encode` fuzz target that generates 1–3 same-length columns
of arbitrary dtypes (via the existing `ArbitraryArray` machinery) with
independent per-column `RowSortField` configs (descending ×
nulls-first), and checks three properties:

1. **Sizes**: `compute_row_sizes`' per-row `{fixed, var}` totals equal
the encoded key lengths.
2. **Order**: byte comparison of any two keys equals a logical tuple
comparison of the row values, asserted pairwise. The oracle is
independent of the encoder: it lifts each row into a `RowKey` (recursive
over structs/FSLs) and compares with the byte format's exact semantics,
nulls positioned by `nulls_first` regardless of direction, and
`descending` inverting leaf values only.
3. **Cross-chunk**: keys from *separate* encode calls over different
slices of the same columns, still compare correctly against each other.
This is the contract sort/top-k operators rely on when comparing keys
across batches.

Unsupported dtypes (List, Variant, Union, Extension, Decimal256) assert
that the encoder rejects them. The target is wired into the scheduled
fuzz workflow like the existing targets.

Subject: [PATCH 078/498] feat(expr): fold cast of a literal to a literal in
 Cast simplify (#8962)

## Motivation

Pruning is shape-sensitive: prune rules pattern-match bare expression
nodes and silently decline anything wrapped in a cast. For example,
`GeoDistancePrune` (`vortex-geo/src/prune/distance.rs`) requires the
comparison's RHS to be a bare `Literal`, so a filter pushed as
`GeoDistance(a, b) <= cast(3.19dec as f64)` scans every chunk while the
equivalent `GeoDistance(a, b) <= lit(3.19f64)` prunes. Measured in
SpatialBench Q1 at SF10: **83ms vs 19ms**, purely from the literal being
wrapped.

Producers currently work around this by hand-folding literals themselves
(vortex-duckdb's `from_bound_f64` in `src/convert/expr.rs`; spiral-geo's
`st_dwithin` lowering). Since `ScanBuilder` already runs
`optimize_recursive` on every pushed filter
(`vortex-layout/src/scan/scan_builder.rs`), one generic fold rule fixes
every producer at once.

## The change

Implement `simplify_untyped` for `Cast`: if the child is a `Literal`,
try `Scalar::cast` to the target dtype and replace the node with the
folded literal.

Subject: [PATCH 079/498] feat(arrow): export StringArray and BinaryArray
 directly (#8902)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

## Summary

This PR adds direct export to Arrow `StringArray` and `BinaryArray`.

A caller can request one of these Arrow types:

- `Utf8`
- `LargeUtf8`
- `Binary`
- `LargeBinary`

Vortex builds a `VarBinArray` for the requested Arrow type. Arrow uses
the buffers in the `VarBinArray`.

The Python API accepts the requested Arrow type:

```python
array.to_arrow_array(arrow_type=pa.string())
vxf.to_arrow(schema=pa.schema([...]))
```

Vortex still exports `StringViewArray` and `BinaryViewArray` when the
caller does not request a type or schema.

## Direct export paths

These encodings can write directly to the `VarBinArray` builder:

- FSST
- OnPair
- Zstd
- Dict

The Dict path also supports compressed dictionary values. Examples
include `Dict<FSST>` and `Dict<Zstd>`.

Sparse and RunEnd use the normal canonical path. The Rust benchmark
showed a 55% gain for the Sparse canonical path. The Vortex compressor
does not create RunEnd string arrays.

## Reason for the change

The old path created a `StringViewArray` or `BinaryViewArray`. Arrow
then cast the result to a `StringArray` or `BinaryArray`.

The cast copied or reordered the value bytes.

The new path creates a `StringArray` or `BinaryArray` directly.

## Performance

This Python benchmark used 500,000 repeated URL strings. Each result is
the median of 10 runs.

| Export path | Median |
|---|---:|
| Direct export to `StringArray` | 111.232 ms |
| Export to `StringViewArray`, then cast to `StringArray` | 273.663 ms |

Direct export was 59.4% faster in this benchmark.

The Rust benchmark covers these layouts and encodings:

- View
- FSST
- Sparse
- Zstd
- Dict
- `Dict<FSST>`
- `Dict<Zstd>`
- filtered compressed arrays
- `Chunked<FSST>`

The Filter cases do not use the direct encoding paths. `Chunked<FSST>`
uses the direct FSST path. Chunked passes the output builder to each
child.

## AI assistance

I used GPT5.6sol to help develop this change. I reviewed and tested all
changes.

## Verification

- `cargo nextest run -p vortex-arrow -p vortex-fsst -p vortex-onpair -p
vortex-runend -p vortex-sparse -p vortex-zstd` passed 529 tests.
- `cargo nextest run -p vortex-array --no-fail-fast` passed 3,003 tests
and skipped 1 test.
- `cargo clippy -p vortex-arrow -p vortex-sparse -p vortex-runend
--all-targets --all-features -- -D warnings` passed.
- `cargo +nightly fmt --all` passed.
- `git diff --check` passed.
- The targeted Python tests passed 3 tests.
- The Sphinx doctest run passed 271 tests.

## Coverage

Rust coverage used LLVM branch instrumentation for `vortex-array`,
`vortex-arrow`, `vortex-fsst`, `vortex-onpair`, `vortex-runend`,
`vortex-sparse`, and `vortex-zstd`.

```shell
cargo +nightly llvm-cov nextest --branch --all-features \
  -p vortex-array -p vortex-arrow -p vortex-fsst -p vortex-onpair \
  -p vortex-runend -p vortex-sparse -p vortex-zstd \
  --no-fail-fast --json --output-path coverage.json
```

The original targeted run passed 3,550 tests and skipped 2 tests. After
adding focused tests, this command refreshed coverage for the changed
`vortex-array` paths:

```shell
cargo +nightly llvm-cov nextest --branch -p vortex-array --no-fail-fast --lcov
```

The refreshed run passed 3,003 tests and skipped 1 test.

- Changed executable Rust lines: 495 of 547 lines, or 90.49%.
- Changed Rust branch outcomes: 19 of 26 outcomes, or 73.08%.

The changed-line results compare this branch with
`57962f4df9af99ebad584bf3e59310e4bf552fc1`. They intersect added lines
with the LLVM LCOV line and branch records. The report combines the
refreshed `vortex-array` LCOV with the existing LCOV for the unchanged
encoding and Arrow crates. This Rust scope does not include benchmarks
or the PyO3 crate.

Python branch coverage used the changed array and file test modules.

```shell
uv run --all-packages --with coverage coverage run --branch -m pytest \
  vortex-python/test/test_array.py vortex-python/test/test_file.py
```

The run completed with 19 passed, 1 pre-existing xfail
(`test_scalar_at_out_of_bounds`), and 0 failed.

- `vortex/file.py`: 32 of 47 statements, or 68.09%.
- `vortex/file.py`: 0 of 2 branches. Both branches are in unchanged
code.
- Changed executable Python statements: 1 of 1, or 100%.
- Changed Python branches: none.

Python coverage does not instrument the Rust code in the extension. The
Python tests exercise that code through the public API.

## Next steps

Pass the output builder through lazy arrays such as Filter, Slice, and
Take. This change can remove more intermediate canonical arrays. Track
this work in #7674.

This release contains adjustments to the syntax tree to account for
ongoing Rust language development from the 3 years since syn 2.0.0 and
to anticipate some in-flight Rust language RFCs.

These include: default values in fields, pinned type sugar, raw
lifetimes, generator blocks and functions, unnamed enum variants,
attributes in tuple types and tuple patterns, named arguments in
parenthesized generic argument lists, lightweight clones, const traits,
const function pointers, mutability restricted fields, supertrait auto
implementation, final associated functions, trait implementability
restrictions, const blocks in path arguments, item-level const blocks,
return type notation, never patterns, function delegation, mutable
by-reference bindings, in-place initialization, field projections,
explicitly dyn-compatible traits, view types, file-level frontmatter,
generic const arguments, guard patterns, lazy type aliases, explicitly
safe foreign items, super let, unsafe fields, pattern types,
heterogeneous try-blocks, function contracts, async function trait
bounds, static closure coroutine syntax, unsafe binder types, move
expressions, for-await loops, and postfix keywords.

### Breaking changes
#### Modifiers

To reserve more room for language evolution, there are 10 new
non-exhaustive structs in the syntax tree having the following
commonality:

- Name ending in `Modifiers`. {`BlockModifiers`, `ClosureModifiers`,
`ConstModifiers`, `FieldModifiers`, `FnModifiers`, `ImplModifiers`,
`LocalModifiers`, `TraitBoundModifiers`, `TraitModifiers`,
`TypeModifiers`}

- Each implements `Default`. The default value is guaranteed to comprise
no tokens.

- Non-exhaustive. Can only be instantiated by Syn's parser or by
creating and then mutating `▁▁Modifiers::default()`.

- Does not implement `Parse`. When parsing, they are parsed by the
enclosing syntax tree node.

- Does not implement `ToTokens`. In some cases the syntax that these
nodes might hold in the future is not necessarily contiguous tokens.

- Provides `.require_empty() -> Result<()>` which returns a meaningfully
spanned error if the modifiers are different from the empty default.
This enables a caller to reject syntax it does not recognize without
knowing what that syntax may be.

#### Types

- `Type::BareFn` has been renamed to `Type::FnPtr` to mirror the
compiler's terminology. Together with this, `BareVariadic` is renamed to
`FnPtrVariadic`.

- The mutually exclusive `const_token` and `mutability` fields of
`Type::Ptr` have been unified into an enum of type `PointerMutability`,
which was already previously used by `Expr::RawAddr`.

- Every `Type` variant now holds attributes, which can represent the
attributes of element types inside a tuple type, or attributes for a
function return type.

- `BareFnArg` is renamed to `NamedArg` and is used in
`ParenthesizedGenericArguments`, in addition to the existing use in
`Type::FnPtr`.

#### Expressions

- In `Expr::Closure`, the fields `or1_token` and `or2_token` have been
renamed to `inputs_begin` and `inputs_end` to indicate the beginning and
ending `|` token of the closure inputs.

#### Statements

- Attributes are now preserved on all expression kinds in statement
position. Previously, parsing would silently lose attributes on some
expression statements without a dedicated Expr variant, such as
tail-call expressions.

#### Patterns

- The `guard` field of `Arm` is replaced by a new `Pat::Guard` variant
held in the arm's `pat`.

#### Items

- The `unsafety` field of `Signature`, which represented the presence or
absence of `unsafe`, is replaced by a 3-way `Safety` enum which may be
safe, unsafe, or default. `ForeignItem::Static` also gets a `Safety`.

- Some of the fields of `Receiver` have been split to a non-exhaustive
`ReceiverKind` enum to create room for proposed new kinds of method
receivers, such as pinned.

- Type aliases now hold a `WhereClausePlacement` to distinguish between
early placement (which is the default for item-level type aliases and is
*deprecated* in associated type aliases) and late placement (which is
the default for associated type aliases and is *unstable* in item-level
type aliases). Parsing and printing a syntax tree will now preserve the
where-clause placement rather than rewriting it to the default placement
for the item kind.

#### Generics

- `WherePredicate::Lifetime` and `WherePredicate::Type` have a new field
holding the attributes on the where-predicates.

- `GenericParam::Type` and `GenericParam::Const` now match the rest of
the syntax tree in holding their optional default using a single Option
of tuple, rather than a pair of Option.

#### Literals

- The `Parse` implementation of `Lifetime` no longer permits keyword
lifetimes, matching a change in Rust 1.81 to deny such lifetimes
pre-expansion. `Lifetime::parse_any` may be used to parse lifetimes
permissive of keywords.

- `LitInt` and `LitFloat` no longer implement
`From<proc_macro2::Literal>`. Use `Lit::new(literal)` and then match
`Lit::Int` or `Lit::Float`.

- The `StrStyle` enum was unused and has been deleted.

#### More

- `File` contains a new `Option<Frontmatter>`, but does not yet parse
frontmatter in `syn::parse_file` until that language feature progresses
closer to stabilization.

- Some enums no longer provide `From` impls. Construct the variant by
name instead, such as `Expr::Array(e)` in place of `e.into()`.

- The `pop` method of `Punctuated<T, P>` now returns `Option<T>`
discarding the trailing punctuation if any, rather than `Option<Pair<T,
P>>`. A new method `pop_pair` provides the old behavior.

- Syntax tree traversal (`visit`, `visit_mut`, `fold`) no longer
provides a method for processing `Span`. This was already incompletely
supported and never walked most of the spans in a syntax tree.

- The `Speculative` and `AnyDelimiter` traits have been sealed and
cannot be implemented for types outside of Syn's `ParseStream`.

Subject: [PATCH 098/498] feat(vortex-python): Add OpenDAL-backed CosStore to
 the Python object-store API (#8845)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

- **Bump `opendal` / `object_store_opendal` to 0.57.0** (in the new
`vortex-object-store-opendal` crate); this version enables COS
versioning by default.
- **Use the upstream `pyo3-object_store` 0.11.0** from crates.io (no
longer vendored via `[patch.crates-io]`). The built-in store classes
(S3/Azure/GCS/HTTP/Local/Memory) keep their `PyObjectStore` interop, and
obstore users can still pass external stores.
- **Introduce `vortex-object-store-opendal`**, a new workspace crate
that builds an `object_store::ObjectStore` from an OpenDAL
`services::Cos` `OpendalStore` (`make_opendal_store(url, properties)`),
reused by both the URL registry and the Python store class.
- **Add a `CosStore` pyclass (opendal feature)** that wraps an
OpenDAL-backed Tencent COS `OpendalStore` and holds it as `Arc<dyn
object_store::ObjectStore>`. It is constructed with explicit config
(`bucket`, `endpoint`, `secret_id`, `secret_key`, `root`,
`disable_config_load`) and can be handed to
`vortex.io.read_url(store=...)` / `vortex.io.write(..., store=...)`.
- **Introduce `AnyVortexStore` in `io.rs`** so `read_url` / `write`
accept both the built-in `pyo3-object_store` classes and the new
OpenDAL-backed `CosStore` via a single `store=` argument.
- **`cos://` and `oss://` URL resolution** now go through the
OpenDAL-backed store, configured via OpenDAL environment variables
(`TENCENTCLOUD_SECRET_ID` / `TENCENTCLOUD_SECRET_KEY` / `COS_ENDPOINT`,
and `ALIBABACLOUD_ACCESS_KEY_ID` / `ALIBABACLOUD_ACCESS_KEY_SECRET` /
`OSS_ENDPOINT`).
- **Document the standalone-store usage and add unit tests**
(`cos_store_builds_object_store`).

**Rationale for this change**

Closes: #8844

Vortex's Python API already exposes concrete, standalone store objects
for S3/Azure/GCS/HTTP/Local/Memory, but Tencent COS and Alibaba OSS were
only reachable through URL-based resolution that relied on environment
variables. This adds first-class OpenDAL-backed stores so COS/OSS can be
used exactly like the other stores (construct once, pass via `store=`),
with better ergonomics and type checking.

**What changes are included in this PR?**

- new `vortex-object-store-opendal` crate (OpenDAL `services-cos`,
`opendal`/`object_store_opendal` 0.57.0)
- `pyo3-object_store` pinned to the upstream 0.11.0 (object_store
0.13.x, matching the workspace) — vendored fork removed
- new `CosStore` pyclass (gated on the `opendal` feature) wrapping an
OpenDAL COS `OpendalStore`, holding `Arc<dyn object_store::ObjectStore>`
- `AnyVortexStore` extractor in `io.rs` so `read_url` / `write` accept
the new store
- `cos://` / `oss://` URL resolution backed by OpenDAL
- docs + unit tests for the standalone-store path

**What APIs are changed? Are there any user-facing changes?**

New public API (Python, `opendal` feature):

- `vortex._lib.CosStore(bucket, endpoint, *, secret_id=None,
secret_key=None, root=None, disable_config_load=False)` — a standalone
`ObjectStore` you can pass to `vortex.io.read_url(url, store=...)` /
`vortex.io.write(arrays, path, store=...)`.
- `vortex.store.CosStore` / `vortex.store.from_url` now document
`cos://` and `oss://` OpenDAL-backed support.

+=============
+OpenDAL (COS)
+=============
+
+Vortex can read from and write to Tencent Cloud COS through
+`OpenDAL <https://opendal.apache.org/>`_, which provides native service support.
+
+This store is available only when Vortex is built with the ``opendal`` feature
+(e.g. ``maturin develop --features opendal`` or ``cargo build -p vortex-jni --features opendal``).
+
+:class:`vortex.store.CosStore`
+==============================
+
+.. py:class:: vortex.store.CosStore(bucket, endpoint, *, secret_id=None, secret_key=None, root=None, disable_config_load=False)
+
+   A Tencent Cloud COS object store, backed by OpenDAL. Construct it with explicit
+   configuration and pass it to
+   :func:`vortex.io.read_url` / :func:`vortex.io.write` via the ``store=`` argument,
+   exactly like the built-in S3/Azure/GCS stores.
+
+   The class is only available when Vortex is built with the ``opendal`` feature; on
+   a default build, instantiating it raises :class:`ImportError`.
+
+   :param bucket: COS bucket name (e.g. ``"my-bucket"``).
+   :param endpoint: COS endpoint (e.g. ``"https://cos.ap-guangzhou.myqcloud.com"``).
+   :param secret_id: Optional Tencent Cloud secret id. Maps to the ``TENCENTCLOUD_SECRET_ID``
+       environment variable when unset.
+   :param secret_key: Optional Tencent Cloud secret key. Maps to the
+       ``TENCENTCLOUD_SECRET_KEY`` environment variable when unset.
+   :param root: Optional key prefix applied to every operation.
+   :param disable_config_load: When ``True``, disable OpenDAL's automatic config loading
+       and rely only on the explicit configuration. Defaults to ``False``.
+
+Reading from COS
+================
+
+Pass a ``cos://`` URL directly. Credentials and the endpoint are picked up from the environment
+variables OpenDAL's COS builder reads (``TENCENTCLOUD_SECRET_ID``, ``TENCENTCLOUD_SECRET_KEY`` and
+``COS_ENDPOINT``):
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+   import vortex as vx
+
+   a = vx.io.read_url("cos://my-bucket/path/to/dataset.vortex")
+
+Or configure explicitly with :class:`~vortex.store.CosStore` and pass it to
+:func:`vortex.io.read_url` via ``store=``:
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+   from vortex.io import read_url
+   from vortex.store import CosStore
+
+   store = CosStore(
+       bucket="my-bucket",
+       endpoint="https://cos.ap-guangzhou.myqcloud.com",
+       secret_id="AKID...",
+       secret_key="...",
+   )
+
+   # When `store=` is supplied, the path is a key within the store, so the scheme and
+   # bucket are not part of the path passed to read_url.
+   a = read_url("path/to/dataset.vortex", store=store)
+
+Passing a store object directly
+===============================
+
+``CosStore`` is a concrete store object. You can build one once and pass it
+directly to :func:`vortex.io.read_url` / :func:`vortex.io.write` via the ``store=`` argument,
+exactly like the built-in S3/Azure/GCS stores:
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+   from vortex.io import read_url
+   from vortex.store import CosStore
+
+   store = CosStore(
+       bucket="my-bucket",
+       endpoint="https://cos.ap-guangzhou.myqcloud.com",
+       secret_id="AKID...",
+       secret_key="...",
+   )
+
+   # When `store=` is supplied, the path is resolved as a key within the store, so the scheme
+   # and bucket are not part of the path passed to read_url.
+   a = read_url("path/to/dataset.vortex", store=store)

+//! OpenDAL-backed [`object_store::ObjectStore`] implementations for cloud providers that are not
+//! natively supported by the `object_store` crate, such as Tencent Cloud COS.
+//!
+//! OpenDAL exposes each service as an `Operator`. We adapt an `Operator` into an
+//! `object_store::ObjectStore` via the `object_store_opendal::OpendalStore` bridge, which is built
+//! against the same `object_store 0.13.x` version the rest of Vortex uses. This lets Vortex consume
+//! COS through its existing `ObjectStoreFileSystem` abstraction without any changes to
+//! `vortex-io`.
+//!
+//! # Limitations
+//!
+//! The [`OpendalStore`] bridge owns its own HTTP request client. Configuration that the JNI/Python
+//! layers normally pass through [`object_store::ClientOptions`] — connect/request timeouts,
+//! retries, proxy settings, `allow_http` — has no effect on COS URLs handled here. Properties
+//! that are not recognized by this crate are dropped without a warning; callers that need strict
+//! validation must pre-filter their property maps.

Subject: [PATCH 099/498] refactor(array): own struct field vectors (#8957)

## Summary

- change Struct array constructors to accept owned `ArrayRef` iterators
- expose Struct fields as `Vec<ArrayRef>` from `StructDataParts` and
`unmasked_fields`
- update canonicalization and masking call sites to consume owned fields

## Why

A follow-up change needs to transfer Struct fields into `ArraySlots`
without cloning every `ArrayRef`. This PR isolates the required public
API changes so downstream impact can be reviewed separately.

Subject: [PATCH 100/498] Back EnabledEditions with a session Registry (#8956)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

## Rationale for this change

Replace the `RwLock`-backed `BTreeMap` behind `EnabledEditions` with the
shared
`Registry<EditionId>` used by the other session variables (array
encodings, scalar functions,
layouts, dtypes), keyed by edition family.

Enabling an edition maps to `Registry::register`, which replaces the
family's previous entry —
matching the "at most one edition per family" semantics directly. The
family `&'static str` is
interned via `Into<Id>` only at enable time (a rare config-time write),
so the disallowed
hot-path interning does not apply.

`editions()` no longer guarantees an ordering; the one test that
asserted a specific order sorts
the result itself.

Subject: [PATCH 103/498] Execute until arrays match fast path or canonical
 before exporting to Arrow (#8935)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Every Arrow exporter has fast paths for non-canonical encodings, but
probes for them with a one-shot downcast. Whenever a wrapper sits on top
(a lazy `mask` scalar-fn, `Slice`, `Filter`, ...), the downcast misses
and the exporter falls back to full canonicalization followed by a
re-encode:

- wrapped `VarBin` → decode to `VarBinView`, then rebuilt into
offset-based `Utf8`/`Binary` (copy every byte again)
- wrapped `Dict` → decode the whole column flat, then `arrow_cast`
re-dictionary-encodes it by hashing every value
- wrapped `RunEnd` → decode flat, then re-detect runs
- wrapped `List` → canonicalize to `ListView`, then rebuild
offsets/sizes for export

Scans produce these whenever a filter is not fully pushed down.

## Change

Each exporter defines a small private `Matcher` for the encodings it
must see at the root and executes until one surfaces:

```rust
let array = array.execute_until::<ArrowListExportable>(ctx)?;
```

Execution stops the moment the matcher hits at the root, or when the
array is canonical (in which case the existing canonical fallback runs —
the dispatch below the `execute_until` is otherwise unchanged). This
generalizes the one-shot `execute::<ArrayRef>` step that
`to_arrow_run_end` already had, which could only unwrap a single
wrapper.

From 9d2735ad8fe134849f2c53e9dd361932188e841b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001

Subject: [PATCH 104/498] Support variadic tail slots in #[array_slots] macro
 (#8950)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

## Rationale for this change

The `#[array_slots]` macro currently supports fixed-size slot layouts
with required (`ArrayRef`) and optional (`Option<ArrayRef>`) fields.
However, several encodings like `Chunked`, `Struct`, and `Union` have
variable-length slot runs (e.g., `[chunk_offsets, chunks...]`) that
cannot be cleanly expressed with the current macro.

This change extends the macro to support a variadic tail — a final field
of type `Vec<ArrayRef>` — enabling these encodings to use the
macro-generated slot accessors and constants instead of hand-written
slot index management.

## What changes are included in this PR?

### Macro enhancements (`vortex-array-macros/src/lib.rs`)

- Added `SlotFieldType::VariadicTail` variant to recognize
`Vec<ArrayRef>` fields
- Validation ensures variadic tails only appear as the final field
- Split slot field processing into `fixed_specs` and optional
`tail_spec`
- Generated different constant sets for variadic layouts:
  - `FIXED_COUNT`: number of fixed slots
  - `FIXED_NAMES`: names of fixed slots
  - `{FIELD}_OFFSET`: offset where the tail begins
- `slot_name(idx)` function: returns slot names like `"chunks[3]"` for
tail slots
- Updated `from_slots()` and `into_slots()` to handle tail
draining/extending
- View struct and ext trait accessors for tail fields now return
`SlotSlice<'a>` instead of `Vec<ArrayRef>`

Subject: [PATCH 105/498] Remove Arrow macro benchmarks (#8816)

## Rationale for this change

Arrow macro benchmarks are very noisy and have many dependencies on
minor details of their implementations. They are not a real target
either.

## What changes are included in this PR?

Removes any mention of arrow from the macro benchmarks (both sql and
compression/random access)

## What APIs are changed? Are there any user-facing changes?

N/A

Subject: [PATCH 108/498] Pin every `#[array_slots]` field to an explicit slot
 index (#9004)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

## Rationale for this change

Follow-up to #8950, which landed the `#[array_slots]` macro with
variadic tail support.

The macro derives slot indices from **field declaration order**. That
makes the physical
storage layout an implicit consequence of how the struct happens to be
written: reordering
two fields, grouping related fields together, or inserting a new field
in the middle
silently renumbers the slots. Nothing in the source says which index a
field occupies, so
the change looks cosmetic in review while actually altering the layout
arrays are built
from and read back with.

Slot indices are a storage contract. They should be stated, not
inferred.

## What changes are included in this PR?

### Macro (`vortex-array-macros/src/lib.rs`)

Every field of an `#[array_slots]` struct must now carry a `#[slot(N)]`
attribute naming
the exact index it maps to — `#[slot(N..)]` for a variadic
`Vec<ArrayRef>` tail:

```rust
#[array_slots(Chunked)]
pub struct ChunkedSlots {
    #[slot(0)]
    pub chunk_offsets: ArrayRef,
    #[slot(1..)]
    pub chunks: Vec<ArrayRef>,
}
```

The annotation — not the declaration order — drives the generated
constants, `from_slots`,
and `into_slots`. `into_slots` emits in annotation order, and `NAMES` /
`FIXED_NAMES` are
sorted by index, so declaration order becomes purely cosmetic. Because
indices are now
authoritative, the variadic tail no longer has to be the last *declared*
field.

`#[slot(..)]` is inert helper syntax consumed during expansion and
stripped from the
re-emitted struct.

Subject: [PATCH 109/498] fix: Fix datafusion benchmark, attaching table ref to
 table URL (#9014)

## Rationale for this change

DF 54.1.0 introduced
[this](https://github.com/apache/datafusion/pull/22950) change, which
due to the way we register the listing table, caused us to not-reuse the
shared stats cache, instead re-parsing them every time.

## What changes are included in this PR?

Just a fix to the benchmark's setup code.

## What APIs are changed? Are there any user-facing changes?

None

Subject: [PATCH 110/498] Smaller docs website (#8942)

Change docs.vortex.dev website:

1. Remove Doxygen, C++ reference doesn't use it currently
2. Use literal includes for C++ examples so that they automatically
  change once .cpp file changes
3. Remove all JS from pages except for search page.
4. Rewrite TOC section so that it opens without JS (detail/summary).
5. Use own theme with colors from vortex.dev.
6. Remove unused dependencies from UV.
7. Manually write references.md instead of using bibtex.
8. Remove icon fonts
9. Change dark/light theme without JS (prefers-color-scheme).
10. Use syntax highlighting without JS (pygments).

To support this, many systems build on open storage formats like Apache Parquet. However, these formats are not optimized for remotely-accessed data lakes and today's high-throughput networks. Inefficient decompression makes scans CPU-bound and thus increases query time and cost. With this work we present BtrBlocks, an open columnar storage format designed for data lakes. BtrBlocks uses a set of lightweight encoding schemes, achieving fast and efficient decompression and high compression ratios.},

-    abstract = {The open-source FastLanes project aims to improve big data formats, such as Parquet, ORC and columnar database formats, in multiple ways. In this paper, we significantly accelerate decoding of all common Light-Weight Compression (LWC) schemes: DICT, FOR, DELTA and RLE through better data-parallelism. We do so by re-designing the compression layout using two main ideas: (i) generalizing the value interleaving technique in the basic operation of bit-(un)packing by targeting a virtual 1024-bits SIMD register, (ii) reordering the tuples in all columns of a table in the same Unified Transposed Layout that puts tuple chunks in a common "04261537" order (explained in the paper); allowing for maximum independent work for all possible basic SIMD lane widths: 8, 16, 32, and 64 bits.We address the software development, maintenance and future-proofness challenges of increasing hardware diversity, by defining a virtual 1024-bits instruction set that consists of simple operators supported by all SIMD dialects; and also, importantly, by scalar code. The interleaved and tuple-reordered layout actually makes scalar decoding faster, extracting more data-parallelism from today's wide-issue CPUs. Importantly, the scalar version can be fully auto-vectorized by modern compilers, eliminating technical debt in software caused by platform-specific SIMD intrinsics.Micro-benchmarks on Intel, AMD, Apple and AWS CPUs show that FastLanes accelerates decoding by factors (decoding >40 values per CPU cycle). FastLanes can make queries faster, as compressing the data reduces bandwidth needs, while decoding is almost free.},

These rounding errors inhibit the use of existing lightweight compression schemes such as Delta and Frame Of Reference (FOR), but recently new schemes were proposed: Gorilla, Chimp128, PseudoDecimals (PDE), Elf and Patas. However, their compression ratios are not better than those of general-purpose compressors such as Zstd; while [de]compression is much slower than Delta and FOR.We propose and evaluate ALP, that significantly improves these previous schemes in both speed and compression ratio (Figure 1). We created ALP after carefully studying the datasets used to evaluate the previous schemes. To obtain speed, ALP is designed to fit vectorized execution. This turned out to be key for also improving the compression ratio, as we found in-vector commonalities to create compression opportunities. ALP is an adaptive scheme that uses a strongly enhanced version of PseudoDecimals [31] to losslessly encode doubles as integers if they originated as decimals, and otherwise uses vectorized compression of the doubles' front bits. Its high speeds stem from our implementation in scalar code that auto-vectorizes, using building blocks provided by our FastLanes library [6], and an efficient two-stage compression algorithm that first samples row-groups and then vectors.},

We show that the complete redesign of compressed columnar storage in FastLanes, with its fully data-parallel bit-packing and encodings, also benefits GPU hardware. We micro-benchmark the performance of FastLanes on two GPU architectures (Nvidia T4 and V100) and integrate FastLanes in the Crystal GPU query processing prototype. Our experiments show that FastLanes decompression significantly outperforms previous decompression methods in micro-benchmarks, and can make end-to-end SSB queries up to twice faster compared to uncompressed query processing - in contrast to previous work where GPU decompression caused execution to slow down. We further discovered that an access granularity of decoding vectors of 1024 values is too large for a single GPU warp due to register pressure. We mitigate this here using mini-vectors - a future work question is how to further reduce this granularity with minimal impact on efficiency.},

Moreover, its use of a static symbol table allows random access to individual, compressed strings, enabling lazy decompression and query processing on compressed data.

All cloud vendors provide disaggregated object stores, which can be used as storage backend for analytical query engines. Until recently, local storage was unavoidable to process large tables efficiently due to the bandwidth limitations of the network infrastructure in public clouds. However, the gap between remote network and local NVMe bandwidth is closing, making cloud storage more attractive. This paper presents a blueprint for performing efficient analytics directly on cloud object stores. We derive cost- and performance-optimal retrieval configurations for cloud object stores with the first in-depth study of this foundational service in the context of analytical query processing. For achieving high retrieval performance, we present AnyBlob, a novel download manager for query engines that optimizes throughput while minimizing CPU usage. We discuss the integration of high-performance data retrieval in query engines and demonstrate it by incorporating AnyBlob in our database system Umbra. Our experiments show that even without caching, Umbra with integrated AnyBlob achieves similar performance to state-of-the-art cloud data warehouses that cache data on local SSDs while improving resource elasticity.},

This compression, however, creates challenges in decoding speed during query processing. Previous research has explored predicate pushdown on encoded values to avoid decoding, but these techniques are restricted to specific encoding schemes and predicates, limiting their practical use. In this paper, we propose a generic predicate pushdown approach that supports arbitrary predicates by leveraging selection pushdown to reduce decoding costs. At the core of our approach is a fast select operator capable of directly extracting selected encoded values without decoding, by using Bit Manipulation Instructions, an instruction set extension to the X86 architecture. We empirically evaluate the proposed techniques in the context of Apache Parquet using both micro-benchmarks and the TPC-H benchmark, and show that our techniques improve the query performance of Parquet by up to one order of magnitude with representative scan queries. Further experimentation using Apache Spark demonstrates speed improvements of up to 5.5X even for end-to-end queries involving complex joins.},

In this paper, we present JSON tiles, which, without losing the flexibility of JSON, enables relational systems to perform analytics on JSON data at native speed. JSON tiles automatically detects the most important keys and extracts them transparently - often achieving scan performance similar to columnar storage. At the same time, JSON tiles is capable of handling heterogeneous and changing data. Furthermore, we automatically collect statistics that enable the query optimizer to find good execution plans. Our experimental evaluation compares against state-of-the-art systems and research proposals and shows that our approach is both robust and efficient.},

They aid in avoiding processing empty range queries and have use cases in many application domains such as key-value stores and social web analytics. However, current range filters do not support dynamically changing and growing datasets. Moreover, several of these designs also exhibit impractically high false positive rates under correlated workloads, which are common in practice. These impediments restrict the applicability of range filters across a wide range of use cases.We introduce Memento filter, the first range filter to simultaneously offer dynamicity, fast operations, and a robust false positive rate for any workload. Memento filter partitions the key universe and clusters its keys according to this partitioning. For each cluster, it stores a fingerprint and a list of key suffixes contiguously. The encoding of these lists makes them amenable to existing dynamic filter structures. Due to the one-to-one mapping from keys to suffixes, Memento filter supports inserts and deletes and can even expand to accommodate a growing dataset.We implement Memento filter on top of a Rank-and-Select Quotient filter and InfiniFilter and demonstrate that it achieves a competitive false positive rate and performance with the state of the art while also providing dynamicity. Due to its dynamicity, Memento filter is the first range filter applicable to B-Trees. We showcase this by integrating Memento filter into WiredTiger, a B-Tree-based key-value store, significantly boosting its performance for mixed workloads.},

Subject: [PATCH 111/498] Rename scalar function strictness contract (#8930)

Changes `is_null_sensitive` to `is_strict` and flips all current
implementations (as `is_strict` implies `!is_null_sensitive`).

A function is strict only when any null input forces a null output and
its return dtype propagates that nullability.

Also fixes `Between` and `Dynamic` scalar functions as they were both
set to strict when they should have been non-strict, so now they are
`is_strict = false`.

## Rationale for this change

Dictionary pushdown rewrites `f(dict(codes, values), constant)` as
`dict(codes, f(values, constant))`. At a null code, the original
evaluates `f(null, constant)`, while the rewritten dictionary is always
null. This is only sound when nulling any one argument forces a null
result while the other arguments remain unchanged.

`is_null_sensitive` documented the unary case but left this
multi-argument contract ambiguous. Kleene `AND`/`OR` show the
difference: masking both inputs produces null, but `false AND null =
false` and `true OR null = true`. That ambiguity caused the bug fixed in
#8929.

Additionally, we have noticed that a large majority of our scalar
functions have strict semantics, and so in the future (hopefully soon)
we can lift out a lot of the shared null logic.

## What changes are included in this PR?

<details>
<summary>Functions that are strict, previously treated as
non-strict</summary>

<br>

These functions are strict, so the old null-sensitivity classification
was overly conservative:

- `ArrayExpr` and `RowIdx` inherited the old conservative default. These
functions take no arguments, so the strictness condition does not apply.
- `Mask` inherited the old conservative default, but a null input
remains null and its mask argument is required to be non-nullable.
- `VariantGet` inherited the old conservative default, but a null
Variant input produces a null output.
- `GetItem` and `Select` preserve the parent struct validity and
propagate its nullability.
- `Merge` only accepts non-nullable inputs, so the strictness law is
vacuously satisfied for well-typed arguments.

</details>

<details>
<summary>Functions that are non-strict, previously treated as
strict</summary>

<br>

These functions are non-strict, so the old classification allowed
unsound dictionary pushdown:

- `Between`: its comparisons are combined with Kleene `AND`; for
example, `10 BETWEEN null AND 5` is `false`, not null.
- `DynamicComparison`: when the dynamic RHS is absent, it returns its
configured default even when the LHS is null.

</details>

<details>
<summary>Remaining non-strict functions</summary>

<br>

- `Binary` for Kleene `AND`/`OR`
- `CaseWhen` and `Zip`
- `Cast`
- `FillNull`, `IsNull`, and `IsNotNull`
- `ForeignScalarFnVTable`
- `ListContains`
- `Pack`
- `RowEncode` and `RowSize`
- `StatFn`

</details>

<details>
<summary>Remaining strict functions</summary>

<br>

- `Binary` for all operators except `AND`/`OR`
- `ByteLength`, `ExtStorage`, `Like`, `ListLength`, `ListSum`, and `Not`
- `Literal`, `Root`, and `RowCount` (nullary)
- `JsonToVariant`
- `GeoContains`, `GeoDistance`, `GeoEnvelope`, and `GeoIntersects`
- `CosineSimilarity`, `InnerProduct`, `L2Denorm`, and `L2Norm`

</details>

Subject: [PATCH 112/498] FFI: remove arc/arc_dyn wrapper (#9002)

- Remove arc_wrapper, arc_dyn_wrapper, and box_dyn_wrapper macros.
ArrayRef and DType have Arc fields inside so double-Arc'ing them makes
no
  sense.
- Clarify passing NULL arguments to functions unless allowed explicitly
is
UB to make error handling more consistent (before, vx_expression allowed
  passing NULL and returned NULL as output in this case).
- Add crate-wide expect(non_camel_case_types), deny(missing_docs).
  Forbid todo!() and unimplemented!() macros crate-wide.
- Remove array_iterator and vx_file since they were not used.
- Remove dtype date/time/datetime extensions checkers since FFI doesn't
allow
  you to handle arrays with extensions dtypes.
  This also removes exporting internal `struct DType`.
- Remove out-of-tree default runtime test.
- Make MultiLayoutDataSource Clone, change its children to be Arc'd for
that.

-//! These macros make it easy to wrap Rust types in a way that can be used in C FFI contexts.
-//! They provide _safer_ accessors and constructors for the wrapped types, ensuring consistency

-//!
-//! There are four macros provided:
-//! - `arc_wrapper!`: Wraps a type in an `Arc<T>` for shared ownership.
-//! - `arc_dyn_wrapper!`: Wraps a type in an `Arc<dyn T>` for shared ownership, allowing for dynamic
-//!   dispatch of unsized types (like trait objects).
-//! - `box_wrapper!`: Wraps a type in a `Box<T>` for single ownership.
-//! - `box_dyn_wrapper!`: Wraps a type in a `Box<dyn T>` for single ownership, allowing for dynamic
-//!   dispatch of unsized types (like trait objects).

-//! Similarly to Rust, `Box` can be chosen to provide single ownership and mutability semantics,
-//! while `Arc` can be used to provide shared ownership (with corresponding immutability).
-//!
-//! Each macro provides a `free` function, and the `Arc` variants also provide a `clone` function.
-//!
-//! Converting between the raw pointer and the wrapped type is done using the generated `new`,
-//! `as_ref`, `as_mut`, `into_box`, and `into_arc` methods, which internally check for
-//! null pointers.
-//!
-//! ## Internals
-//!
-//! Dynamic traits in Rust use fat pointers, which means that the size of the type is too large to
-//! fit into a single C pointer. There are various ways to handle this, but the most common and the
-//! one used here is to box the dynamic type, e.g. `Box<Box<dyn Trait>>` or `Box<Arc<dyn Trait>>`.
-//!
-//! These types therefore have slightly more overhead than their non-dynamic counterparts, but
-//! in practice, any other approach would similarly involve two heap allocations (for example a
-//! C-style vtable).
-//!
-//! ## Safety
-//!
-//! These macros don't require any Send + Sync bounds. We could try and define this behaviour here
-//! to make it clearer, but for now, it's important to just be careful when documenting the thread
-//! safety of the functions that use these types.
-
-/// Define a native FFI type that wraps an [`std::sync::Arc<T>`] type with unsized T.
-///
-/// To solve the problem of dynamic traits using fat pointers, we box the `Arc<T>` a second time.

Subject: [PATCH 113/498] Purge remnants of the old benchmarks website versions
 (#9015)

Removes all references to the older versions of the benchmarks website.

This is basically all cosmetic renames, as we still technically use the
v3 ingest pipeline, but "v3" no longer means anything in this repo.

-"""Ingest a `--gh-json-v3` JSONL file into the benchmarks store.
-
-Reads bare v3 records from a JSONL file produced by `vortex-bench --gh-json-v3`
-and fills the `commit` fields by shelling out to `git show`. Two mutually
-exclusive ingest modes select the destination substrate:
-
-- `--server <url>` (v3): wraps the records in an envelope and POSTs to
-  `<server>/api/ingest` with a bearer token. Standard library only -- urllib,
-  json, subprocess.
-- `--postgres <dsn>` (v4): computes the server-internal `measurement_id`
-  locally (via `_measurement_id.py`) and upserts directly into the RDS
-  Postgres tables with `INSERT ... ON CONFLICT (measurement_id) DO UPDATE`,
-  over a verify-full TLS connection, authenticating with an RDS IAM auth token
-  when the DSN carries no password. Requires `psycopg`, `boto3`, and `xxhash`
-  from the project environment; these are imported lazily inside the
-  `--postgres` code path so the v3 `--server` path stays standard-library-only
-  under a bare `python3` (CI invokes `python3 scripts/post-ingest.py`, not
-  `uv run`, and the v3 path is in production until the Phase 5 cutover). The
-  PEP 723 metadata block below intentionally keeps `dependencies = []` for that
-  reason; run the `--postgres` mode from the repo's uv environment.
-
-The default envelope size (60 MiB, just under the server's 64 MiB body limit)
-is sized so a single JSONL run normally posts in one envelope -- preserving the
-"per-file all-or-nothing" contract the server documents. If the JSONL is large
-enough that splitting kicks in, the script emits a warning and proceeds with the
-chunked semantics (per-chunk commit, mid-chunk failure leaves earlier chunks
-ingested; subsequent retries re-upsert via the server's ON CONFLICT idempotency
-on `measurement_id`). The `--postgres` mode applies a whole JSONL file in one
-transaction (all-or-nothing), with no chunking.
-
-Wire-contract pointers (kept in sync as a coordinated change per
-the `vortex-data/benchmarks-website` repo's `AGENTS.md`):
-
-- the `vortex-data/benchmarks-website` repo's `server/src/records.rs` - envelope + per-record wire
-  shapes that the server deserializes.
-- `vortex-bench/src/v3.rs` - bare-record producer that writes the JSONL this
-  script wraps.
-- the `vortex-data/benchmarks-website` repo's `server/src/schema.rs` - `SCHEMA_VERSION` source of
-  truth that the `SCHEMA_VERSION` constant below MUST equal at every bump.
+"""Ingest benchmark JSONL records into the v4 Postgres store.

Subject: [PATCH 114/498] Centralize SQL benchmark matrices in
 bench-orchestrator (#9017)

## Rationale for this change

Closes: https://github.com/vortex-data/vortex/issues/4935

Revived from: https://github.com/vortex-data/vortex/pull/8801

SQL benchmark coverage was spread across large workflow JSON matrices
and difficult to audit.

## What changes are included in this PR?

Moves benchmark coverage into one typed Python catalog. `vx-bench matrix
<preset>` validates and renders it for GitHub Actions; the surrounding
modules only model, validate, and render the catalog.

The `pr`, `pr-full`, `develop`, and `nightly` outputs remain unchanged.

+## CI Benchmark Matrices
+
+CI benchmark coverage lives in `bench_orchestrator/ci_matrix/catalog.py`. This is the only file to
+edit when changing what runs in the `develop`, `pr`, `pr-full`, or `nightly` presets. The remaining
+modules in `ci_matrix` model, validate, and render that catalog as the JSON expected by GitHub
+Actions.
+
+When adding coverage, update the benchmark declarations and the expected preset membership in
+`tests/test_matrix.py`.

-# DuckDB
-
-The `vortex-duckdb` crate integrates Vortex as a DuckDB extension, registering table functions
-(`vortex_scan` and `read_vortex`) that allow DuckDB to scan Vortex files directly.
-
-## Registration
-
-Vortex registers itself as a DuckDB table function. The function accepts a file path or glob
-pattern as its argument. During the bind phase, the first matching file is opened to extract the
-schema and register result columns with DuckDB's planner. The remaining files are opened lazily
-during execution.
-
-## Multiple Files
-
-Glob patterns are expanded at bind time to produce a list of file paths. Files are opened
-concurrently during the global initialization phase, with a concurrency limit proportional to
-the number of DuckDB worker threads to keep the I/O pipeline saturated without overwhelming
-the system.
-
-Active file scans are driven concurrently via `try_flatten_unordered`, ensuring that DuckDB's
-execution threads always have data to consume while background I/O proceeds. File footers are
-cached to avoid redundant parsing when the same file appears in multiple queries.
-
-## Threading Model
-
-DuckDB uses a thread-per-core execution model where each worker thread pulls data from a shared
-scan state. The Vortex integration bridges this with a single `CurrentThreadRuntime` instance
-that all async work is dispatched through.
-
-The global initialization phase creates an async stream of scan results and wraps it in a
-`ThreadSafeIterator` backed by a multi-producer multi-consumer channel. Each DuckDB worker
-thread calls into the iterator to pull the next batch, and the CRT's smol executor drives I/O
-progress from whichever thread happens to be polling. This allows DuckDB to retain its
-thread-per-core scheduling while Vortex handles async I/O transparently.
-
-Because DuckDB threads block while waiting for data, the CRT may need background worker threads
-to ensure I/O continues to make progress when all DuckDB threads are busy exporting data. See
-the [runtime documentation](../internals/async-runtime.md) for more on this trade-off.
-
-## Filter and Projection Pushdown
-
-DuckDB's planner pushes filter predicates into the scan via the `pushdown_complex_filter`
-callback. These are converted from DuckDB's bound expression representation into Vortex
-expressions and stored alongside any table filter expressions. During scanning, the combined
-filter is applied to the `ScanBuilder` for each file.
-
-Files can be pruned entirely before opening if their statistics prove that no rows can match
-the filter.
-
-Projection pushdown maps DuckDB's requested column indices to Vortex field names and passes
-them as a projection expression to the scan.
-
-## Data Export
-
-Scan results are exported to DuckDB's native `DataChunk` and `Vector` format. The exporter
-walks the Vortex array tree and uses encoding-aware exporters where possible -- for example,
-constant arrays, run-end arrays, and dictionary arrays can be exported without first
-decompressing to a canonical form. Arrays that lack a specialized exporter fall back to
-canonical (Arrow-compatible) conversion before export.
-
-Results are exported in chunks matching DuckDB's standard vector size to align with its
-vectorized execution model.
-
-## Future Work
-
-The current integration builds directly on the `ScanBuilder`, layout reader, and file APIs.
-Future work will migrate it to use the [Scan API](/concepts/scanning) `Source` trait, unifying
-file discovery, multi-file coordination, and pushdown behind a single interface shared across
-all engine integrations.

Subject: [PATCH 117/498] Unify numeric compute kernels with vortex-compute
 iteration functions (#8939)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Essentially unifiying the LaneZip with numerical compute functions
required
adding another function `IndexedSourceExt::map_checked_into` —
a split value/error kernel (f(item) -> (R, bool), writes every lane,
OR-reduces one flag, no early exit)

With that the numerical compute functions get simd support and we don't
have to
special case them for primitive compute. map_into doesn't work because
the bool
exit flag prevents vectorisation, hence we need to carry the error in
the loop
and only afterwards recheck the failures

fix #8922

Subject: [PATCH 118/498] feat: add a ci gpu compress benchmark (#8951)

Adds a bench-compression GPU variant.

Currently this fails to run. But we can fix that outside of adding the
bench.

Subject: [PATCH 119/498] Make PolarSignals profiling data more visible (#9029)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

## Rationale for this change

This PR makes a few changes to make polarsignals more visible and easier
to use.
1. Adds a job identifier, so you can see the status of each
benchmark/job and go directly to the respective dashboard
2. Adds some labels to make things more intuitive when exploring data
3. Upload the binary's debug-info in a dedicated action, which is a lot
more robust as the agent might not upload everything in time.
4. Enable frame points which dropped at some point, not sure why.

Special thanks to @brancz for helping me debug parca ❤️

Subject: [PATCH 120/498] Fix the two root causes of CodSpeed flakes:
 substituted baselines and harness-dominated benchmarks (#9011)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

## Rationale for this change

Follow-up to #8861 / #8807. Two causes behind the remaining flakes.

**Benchmarks measuring divan's harness, not the operation.** An
iteration carries ~146 instructions of fixed harness, and only
benchmarks below that were ever flagged. `true_count` was 78% / 64%
harness at 1024 / 2048 bits, so those sizes are gone. `slice` is O(1) —
every size measured identically at 125 Ir, which is why #8749 reported
the same value for `[1024]` and `[16384]` — so it's one length, batched.
`binary_search` measured 203 vs 206 Ir for the two impls,
indistinguishable; batched they separate at 15,133 vs 10,010.

**CI attributing other commits' changes to a PR.** Serialised develop
baselines meant CodSpeed substituted an older base and said so — *"No
successful run was found on `develop`…"* — on 4 of 12 open-PR reports.
Now one group per commit, which does let develop runs overlap on a spot
pool. Separately the CUDA filter matched `.github/workflows/**`, so 11
dependency bumps ran the walltime suite; now just `codspeed.yml`.

The first report here was an instance: a YAML-only commit flagged three
benchmarks that vanished once the base was correct.

## What changes are included in this PR?

Three files. Checks: callgrind before and after each fix, `clippy
--benches`, `+nightly fmt`, smoke runs, `yamllint --strict`. Rejected
after testing: `codegen-units = 1`, and tight-looping `true_count`.
Numbers are from a dev container, not a CodSpeed runner.

Subject: [PATCH 121/498] Download duckdb sources only once per config/version
 combo (#9031)

## Rationale for this change

This saves us a few hundereds of MBs per `OUT_DIR`, which can change
frequently with feature combos

## What APIs are changed? Are there any user-facing changes?

None

Subject: [PATCH 122/498] Increase Vortex bench size 10x, add partial filter
 (#9039)

Votex benchmarks are still noisy and we're mostly measuring
duckdb overhead. Increase them 10x, and add a query which
leaves most zone maps intact but takes some partially

(Stack for zone maps aggregation short-circuit)

+Hugging Face Datasets
+=====================
+
+Vortex files can be loaded directly as Hugging Face ``datasets`` objects. Install the optional
+dependencies with:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+    pip install vortex-data[hf]
+
+``vortex.datasets.load_dataset`` accepts a local path or glob, a URL readable by Vortex
+(``https://``, ``s3://``, ``gs://``, ``az://``), a Hugging Face Hub dataset repository id, or an
+``hf://`` URI of the form ``hf://datasets/<org>/<name>[@<revision>][/<path-or-glob>]`` (revisions
+containing ``/`` must be percent-encoded, e.g. ``@refs%2Fconvert%2Fparquet``).
+Unlike ``datasets.load_dataset``, it defaults to ``streaming=True`` and returns a streaming
+dataset that keeps Vortex in charge of reading. Column selection, Vortex filter expressions, and
+row limits are pushed down into each Vortex scan before examples are yielded to Hugging Face
+transforms.
+
+Hub repositories are streamed in place: files are read with HTTP range requests, so only the
+projected columns and matching rows are ever transferred. Private and gated repositories
+authenticate with the ``token`` argument or the locally saved login. Files are downloaded (with
+the usual Hub caching) only when ``streaming=False`` or ``local_files_only=True``.
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+    import vortex as vx
+
+    # Stream a local directory of Vortex files as a Hugging Face IterableDataset.
+    ds = vx.datasets.load_dataset("path/to/dir", split="train")
+
+    # Stream a Hub dataset directly, without downloading it.
+    ds = vx.datasets.load_dataset("username/dataset", split="train")
+
+    # hf:// URIs select a revision and a path or glob within the repository.
+    ds = vx.datasets.load_dataset("hf://datasets/username/dataset@main/data/*.vortex", split="train")
+
+    # Column projection and Vortex filter expressions are pushed into the scan.
+    ds = ds.select_columns(["text", "label"]).filter(vx.expr.column("label") == 1)
+
+    for example in ds.take(100):
+        ...
+
+    # Materialize an in-memory dataset instead, optionally selecting splits via data_files.
+    splits = vx.datasets.load_dataset(
+        "username/dataset",
+        data_files={"train": "train-*.vortex", "validation": "validation.vortex"},
+        streaming=False,
+    )
+
+When loading multiple splits, pass a ``data_files`` mapping from split name to file patterns; a
+list of splits without such a mapping cannot be resolved and raises an error.

Subject: [PATCH 124/498] Refactor layout child access to support optional
 slots (#9000)

## Rationale for this change

This refactor introduces a distinction between *logical slots* (fixed
positions in a layout's schema) and *serialized children* (the actual
present children stored densely). This enables layouts to have optional
children that may or may not be present in a given instance, while
maintaining stable slot indices across different configurations.

This is similar to the previous change to arrays
https://github.com/vortex-data/vortex/pull/6870

## Migration

Use slots instead of children. Instead of needing to work out the child
idx using properties of the layout each slot will be at a fixed position
and `None` if missing adjust offset maths.

Variable len slots can be added and the end (if two are needed you will
still need more complex idx maths).

Subject: [PATCH 126/498] Fix escaped field names in calculate_physical_schema
 (#9049)

## Rationale for this change

Probably best demonstrated by the tests:
```
---- test_control_byte_column_names_are_not_escaped stdout ----
assertion `left == right` failed
  left:  ["plain", "\\u{8}", "check_id\\u{10}"]
 right:  ["plain", "\u{8}", "check_id\u{10}"]

---- test_control_byte_struct_field_names_are_not_escaped stdout ----
assertion `left == right` failed
  left:  ["app", "\\u{8}", "check_id\\u{10}"]
 right:  ["app", "\u{8}", "check_id\u{10}"]
 ```

Meaning one of the code paths potentially escaped column names and one didn't.

## What changes are included in this PR?

Fix for ensuring all paths for producing schemas for DataFusion result in the same consistent schema.

## What APIs are changed? Are there any user-facing changes?

No API changes

Subject: [PATCH 127/498] Use unchecked ListViewArray construction after
 validation (#9044)

This change optimizes the `list_view_to_list_view` conversion by
replacing the checked `GenericListViewArray::new` constructor with
`new_unchecked`. The safety invariants are already guaranteed by the
existing validation logic, making the per-element bounds checking in the
constructor redundant.

Subject: [PATCH 128/498] Remove bloom filters from TPC-H data (#9048)

## Rationale for this change

This PR aligns our TPC-H based benchmark to what other setups usually
do.

TPC-H data is usually generated without bloom filters, which we
currently enable unconditionally.

In addition, the common benchmark for this data (at the scales we use)
uses a single file per table.

This PR supersedes https://github.com/vortex-data/vortex/pull/9037.

## What APIs are changed? Are there any user-facing changes?

None

From 8cd613b7fecac4214d8c1020277e6b4c476aff67 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Joe Isaacs <joe.isaacs@live.co.uk>
Date: Wed, 29 Jul 2026 13:29:16 +0100
Subject: [PATCH 129/498] Route StructArray through the array_slots accessors
 and drop unmasked_fields() (#9006)

## Rationale for this change

Follow-up to #8950 (variadic `#[array_slots]`) and #9013
(slot-construction fast paths).

Doing that exposed `StructArrayExt::unmasked_fields() -> Vec<ArrayRef>`,
which allocated a `Vec` and bumped every field's refcount purely to hand
the caller something it could index or iterate.

Subject: [PATCH 130/498] make alp-rd dicts deterministic on equal frequency
 entries (#9032)

## Rationale for this change

If the alp-rd dictionary ends up with entries with the same frequency,
serialised array might differ depending on the hashmap order, hence
creating different vortex files byte by byte for the same data.


## What changes are included in this PR?

break ties on the dictionary by looking at the high bits

Subject: [PATCH 131/498] feat[file]: gate the writer on the session's enabled
 editions (#8946)

## Summary

The file writer previously drew its permitted encodings from a static
`ALLOWED_ENCODINGS` set compiled into `vortex-file`. The only way to
write a narrower or wider set was to override the write strategy by
hand, and the writer's policy was disconnected from the editions the
session had registered. This PR makes the writer's encoding policy come
from the session's **enabled editions**.

Final PR in the stack, on top of #8945 (`add enabled-editions selection
to the session`) and #8944 (`require schemes to declare their produced
encodings`).

## Changes

- `VortexWriteOptions::new` resolves `enabled_encoding_ids` and applies
it both to the write strategy and to the `ArrayContext`, so a
replacement strategy cannot widen the policy.
- `WriteStrategyBuilder::with_allow_encodings` now also filters the
BtrBlocks compressor via `retain_allowed_encodings` (from #8944), in
either configuration order, so forbidden encodings are never produced
rather than being rejected after the fact.
- `ALLOWED_ENCODINGS` is removed. `register_default_encodings` still
registers everything for reading; the default session's write policy
comes from the editions enabled by `enable_default_editions`.
- Sessions without an `EnabledEditions` variable permit no edition
encodings, so lower-level test sessions in `vortex-file`,
`vortex-layout` and `vortex-parquet-variant` opt in explicitly via a
shared `enable_all_registered_array_encodings` test helper.

The `vortex/src/editions/tests.rs` round-trip tests exercise every
writer customization path (default strategy, replacement builders,
opaque/probe compressors, custom flat strategies and field writers) to
confirm none can emit an encoding outside the enabled editions.

Subject: [PATCH 132/498] Derive optimized ScanPlanV2s from source plans
 (#9005)

## Summary

- keep the existing expression-passing scan implementation in
`scan::plan` and name its repeated-scan dispatch path `Plan`
- isolate the heap-allocated implementation in `scan::plan_v2`,
including `ScanPlanV2`, `LayoutReaderScanPlanV2`, V2 split execution,
selection, and tests
- derive N+1 independent `ScanPlanV2` values from one source: one per
filter conjunct plus one projection plan
- keep expressions out of PlanV2 split execution while preserving
pruning, dynamic-filter re-pruning, adaptive conjunct ordering,
filtering, and projection
- use `LayoutReaderScanPlanV2` as the compatibility source, delegating
execution to the established `LayoutReader`
- select the paths with `VORTEX_SCAN_IMPL=plan|planv2`; the previous
`v1|v2` aliases remain accepted and `plan` is the default in this PR

## Design

Each predicate and the projection is independently applied and optimized
from the shared PlanV2 source. The N+1 plans remain separate to preserve
the current scheduling model and independent read opportunities.

Layout-specific PlanV2 sources can incrementally replace the
compatibility source without changing the repeated-scan dispatcher. The
existing Plan code does not depend on the PlanV2 module.

Subject: [PATCH 133/498] duckdb: don't push down aggregation over floats
 (#9069)

Duckdb's float NaN handling is substandard and conflicts with Vortex NaN
handling. To preserve output, disable float columns aggregate pushdown
as
for now.

Subject: [PATCH 134/498] refactor(cloud): split cloud object store integration
 into a vortex-cloud crate (#8999)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Follow-up to #8845, which added the OpenDAL-backed `cos://` store.

URL-to-`ObjectStore` resolution had grown three independent
implementations:

| Caller | Schemes | Caching | Credentials |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `vortex-python`'s `Registry` | file, s3, azure, gcs, http, **cos** |
per-prefix | case-insensitive env |
| `vortex-jni`'s `make_object_store` | file, s3, azure, gcs, **cos** |
per-URL | property-driven builders |
| `vortex-duckdb`'s `resolve_filesystem` | **file, s3 only** | **none**
| `from_env` only |

Only the first knew about the OpenDAL-backed schemes, and it was
`pub(crate)`, so no Rust
consumer could reach it. Adding a provider meant touching every caller —
which is exactly what
#8845 had to do, and what the next provider would have to do again.

+//! * `Registry` resolves a URL to a store, caching one client per bucket. It reads configuration
+//!   out of environment variables case-insensitively, matching how the `object_store` `from_env`
+//!   builders behave.
+//! * `opendal` supplies stores for cloud services the `object_store` crate does not implement
+//!   natively — Tencent Cloud COS and Alibaba Cloud OSS — bridged through
+//!   `object_store_opendal`.
+//!
+//! Every Vortex language binding resolves URLs through this one crate, so a scheme added here is
+//! reachable from Python, Java and DuckDB alike.
+//!
+//! Both are feature-gated, so this overview refers to them by name rather than by link: an
+//! intra-doc link would dangle in a build that leaves the corresponding feature off.

+//! * `registry` — the `Registry`, plus the natively-supported cloud backends (S3, Azure, GCS,

+//! * `cos` — Tencent Cloud COS, the `cos://` scheme.
+//! * `oss` — Alibaba Cloud OSS, the `oss://` scheme.
+//! * `opendal` — every OpenDAL-backed service above.
+//!
+//! The `registry` feature picks up whichever OpenDAL services are enabled, so a consumer that
+//! turns on `oss` gets `oss://` resolution without touching its own scheme matching.

+//! OpenDAL-backed [`object_store::ObjectStore`] implementations for cloud providers that are not
+//! natively supported by the `object_store` crate: Tencent Cloud COS and Alibaba Cloud OSS.
+//!
+//! OpenDAL exposes each service as an `Operator`. We adapt an `Operator` into an
+//! `object_store::ObjectStore` via the `object_store_opendal::OpendalStore` bridge, which is built
+//! against the same `object_store 0.13.x` version the rest of Vortex uses. This lets Vortex consume
+//! these services through its existing `ObjectStoreFileSystem` abstraction.
+//!
+//! Callers that dispatch on a URL scheme should ask [`supports_scheme`] rather than comparing
+//! against [`COS_SCHEME`] / [`OSS_SCHEME`] themselves, so that enabling another service does not
+//! require touching every call site.
+//!
+//! # Cargo features
+//!
+//! * `cos` — Tencent Cloud COS, the `cos://` scheme.
+//! * `oss` — Alibaba Cloud OSS, the `oss://` scheme.
+//!
+//! With a single service enabled the module still compiles: [`supports_scheme`] returns `false`
+//! for every scheme it does not serve and [`make_opendal_store`] reports
+//! [`OpenDALStoreError::UnsupportedScheme`].
+//!
+//! # Limitations
+//!
+//! The `OpendalStore` bridge owns its own HTTP request client. Configuration that the JNI/Python
+//! layers normally pass through [`object_store::ClientOptions`] — connect/request timeouts,
+//! retries, proxy settings, `allow_http` — has no effect on URLs handled here. Properties that a
+//! service does not recognize are logged at `warn` and dropped; callers that need strict
+//! validation must pre-filter their property maps.

-//! OpenDAL-backed [`object_store::ObjectStore`] implementations for cloud providers that are not
-//! natively supported by the `object_store` crate, such as Tencent Cloud COS.
-//!
-//! OpenDAL exposes each service as an `Operator`. We adapt an `Operator` into an
-//! `object_store::ObjectStore` via the `object_store_opendal::OpendalStore` bridge, which is built
-//! against the same `object_store 0.13.x` version the rest of Vortex uses. This lets Vortex consume
-//! COS through its existing `ObjectStoreFileSystem` abstraction without any changes to
-//! `vortex-io`.
-//!
-//! # Limitations
-//!
-//! The [`OpendalStore`] bridge owns its own HTTP request client. Configuration that the JNI/Python
-//! layers normally pass through [`object_store::ClientOptions`] — connect/request timeouts,
-//! retries, proxy settings, `allow_http` — has no effect on COS URLs handled here. Properties
-//! that are not recognized by this crate are dropped without a warning; callers that need strict
-//! validation must pre-filter their property maps.

From: Adam Gutglick <adam@spiraldb.com>

Subject: [PATCH 135/498] Only run benchmark env configuration after setup is
 complete (#9075)

## Rationale for this change

This step (tries) to make the box more predictable at the cost of some
performance, we should only run it AFTER we do all the setup
(downloading dependencies, building binaries, generating data).

Subject: [PATCH 136/498] Make debuginfo upload on benchmarks best-effort
 (#9089)

## Rationale for this change

Some recent benchmarks started to fail due to an error at that step,
which shouldn't block us from getting the overall numbers.

Also changed the URL because it seems like that's the right one from
their docs.

Subject: [PATCH 137/498] Make the benchmark env script more consistent (#9080)

## Rationale for this change

1. Turns out - we don't actually run on metal instances like we thought
due to a syntax mistake in the runs-on node choice.
2. Change the NUMA script a bit to fix some of the pinning/power
management.

## What changes are included in this PR?
<!--
No need to duplicate information from the previous section, but if
you're touching many
parts of the code base, its worth explicitly noting the important
changes or how they are tested.
-->

## What APIs are changed? Are there any user-facing changes?

<!--
Are there any user-facing changes that might require documentation
updates
Is any public API changed?

Subject: [PATCH 138/498] Mark file-level min/max utf8/binary stats exactness
 correctly (#9088)

## Rationale for this change

We currently always mark min/max stats as exact, but when they are
truncated they should be marked as inexact so compute engines can reason
about them correctly.

- Closes: #9082

## What changes are included in this PR?

In `StatsAccumulator `, use the truncation flags for stat exactness.


## What APIs are changed? Are there any user-facing changes?

min/max exactness will be correct

Subject: [PATCH 139/498] fix: LazyScanStream prepare/execute is CPU-work not
 I/O (#9078)

Scan preparation and execution in LazyScanStream is CPU-bound work, so
spawn it with Handle::spawn_cpu instead of the blocking I/O pool.

Subject: [PATCH 140/498] mean(all null) = NULL (#9079)

https://github.com/vortex-data/vortex/pull/8365 introduced a behavior
which is different from ANSI SQL and how query engines implement
mean(all null), and reverting in
https://github.com/vortex-data/vortex/pull/8389 was closed.

Revert this change, and add SLT duckdb/datafusion tests for current
behaviour.

Resolves: #9083

Subject: [PATCH 141/498] Replace LayoutStrategy buffered_bytes with a buffered
 bytes tracker (#8961)

For file writing it's very useful to know how much data is already piped through
the writer. We have a CountingWriter but that can only measure flushed bytes. We
want to measure the bytes that the writer holds buferred.

Instead of recursive buffered_bytes which has numerous problems with stateless
strategies and double counting we add a bufferedbytestracker to the
layoutwritercontext and let writers report buffered bytes there

Subject: [PATCH 144/498] fix: validate unsigned AVX2 take indices (#9036)

## Summary

- Fix unsigned AVX2 take bounds checks with unsigned SIMD comparisons
and masked gathers.
- Fall back to scalar when i32 gathers cannot address valid u32 indices.
- Accumulate validity masks in SIMD and reduce once after the loop.
- Add regression coverage and a 1M-index primitive-take benchmark.

This is actually not as large of a change as it looks, and nothing
changes in the hot path (there's just a bit more validation). The rest
of the diff comes from the regression tests.

Subject: [PATCH 145/498] SLT tests for aggregations (#9086)

Clarify aggregations behaviour in SLT tests. This checks vortex-duckdb
and vortex-datafusion behavior, and specifically for vortex-duckdb's
float columns, duckdb's behaviour so further work wouldn't accidentally
break it.

Subject: [PATCH 146/498] fix(arrow): return an error for incompatible Arrow
 export targets (#8993)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

## Rationale for this change

Follow-up to #8902, which added `to_arrow_array(arrow_type=...)` and
`to_arrow(schema=...)`. Those parameters let a caller pick the target
Arrow type, and `execute_arrow_naive` dispatches purely on that
`DataType` without checking whether the source dtype can produce it.

#8902 added a guard for the byte arms. Five other arms have the same
problem: they call `execute::<T>`, which is documented as panicking on a
dtype mismatch:

```rust
/// Execute the array to canonical form and unwrap as a [`BoolArray`].
///
/// This will panic if the array's dtype is not bool.
impl Executable for BoolArray { ... }
```

So `vx.array([1, 2, 3]).to_arrow_array(arrow_type=pa.bool_())` panics
inside `Canonical::into_bool()` instead of returning an error. A panic
crossing PyO3 becomes a `PanicException`, and in a DataFusion or DuckDB
worker it is a panic rather than a surfaced error.

Measured before this change, exporting each source dtype to each target:

```
source\tgt      Utf8  LargeUtf8  Binary  LargeBinary  Utf8View  BinaryView  Int32  Int64  Float64  Boolean
utf8              ok         ok      ok           ok        ok         Err    Err    Err      Err    PANIC
binary            ok         ok      ok           ok       Err          ok    Err    Err      Err    PANIC
i32              Err        Err     Err          Err       Err         Err     ok     ok       ok    PANIC
f64              Err        Err     Err          Err       Err         Err     ok     ok       ok    PANIC
bool             Err        Err     Err          Err       Err         Err     ok     ok       ok       ok
```

Extending to the remaining arms, `Boolean`, `Null`, `Decimal128`,
`List`, `ListView`, and `FixedSizeList` all panic. `Date32`,
`Timestamp`, `FixedSizeBinary`, and `Struct` were already fine.

## What changes are included in this PR?

A `vortex_ensure!` on the source dtype at the top of each affected arm,
mirroring the existing check in `to_arrow_byte_array`: `to_arrow_bool`,
`to_arrow_null`, `to_arrow_decimal`, `to_arrow_list`,
`to_arrow_list_view`, and `to_arrow_fixed_list`.

The guards are per-arm rather than centralised because compatibility is
not symmetric. A `Bool` source exports to `Int32` through a cast kernel,
but a `Primitive` source cannot produce `Boolean`. A single "type
classes must match" rule at the dispatch point would reject conversions
that work today, and the per-arm requirement is local and obvious.

Two `rstest` cases in `vortex-arrow/src/executor/mod.rs`:

- `incompatible_target_returns_error` — 12 source/target pairs that
previously panicked now return `Err`.
- `supported_cross_class_target_still_works` — 7 legitimate cross-class
conversions (`bool → Int32`, `bool → Float64`, `i32 → Date32`, `i32 →
Timestamp`, `utf8 → Binary`, …) still succeed, pinning the asymmetry
above so a future centralisation attempt cannot quietly break them.

## What APIs are changed? Are there any user-facing changes?

No API changes. Behaviour change only on a path that previously aborted
the process: requesting an Arrow type the source dtype cannot produce
now returns a `VortexError` naming both the dtype and the target type.

## Verification

- `cargo test -p vortex-arrow -p vortex-array -p vortex-datafusion` —
3145 + 220 + 247 + 72 + 13 passed, 0 failed.
- `cargo clippy -p vortex-arrow --all-targets --all-features` — clean.
- `cargo +nightly fmt --all`, `git diff --check` — clean.

Not run: Python tests, docs doctests. This PR touches no Python or docs
surface.

Subject: [PATCH 147/498] benchmarks: add string compression benchmark (#9060)

## Rationale for this change

This adds benchmarks for evaluating Vortex string encoders on
representative datasets.

It also fixes mixed-unit benchmark reporting. Previously, Compression
results were grouped as `unknown / unknown`, byte values were labelled
`ns`, and fractional ratios were truncated; for example, [this previous
Compression
report](https://github.com/vortex-data/vortex/pull/9063#issuecomment-5118986927).

## What changes are included in this PR?

- Adds two string benchmark suites:
  - `codec`: Direct whole-column codec compression.
- `vortex`: End-to-end in-memory Vortex write, open, scan, and
canonicalization.
- Runs string-bench on `develop` to establish its baseline.
- Groups benchmark comparisons by target and unit, preserves fractional
values, and marks metrics without baselines.

## What APIs are changed? Are there any user-facing changes?

No production Vortex APIs are changed. This PR adds the `string-bench`
CLI and improves benchmark PR reports.

+
+Compares Vortex string encoders on configured real-world Utf8 columns.
+
+## What it measures
+
+Three metrics per (column, encoder), from the default `vortex` suite:
+
+| Metric | Meaning | Table unit | `gh-json` unit |
+| --- | --- | --- | --- |
+| `size` | Serialized file bytes over canonical uncompressed bytes | % | % |
+| `write` | Repartition + zone stats + compress (string scheme and children) + layout + serialize | MB/s | ms |
+| `read` | Open + scan, decoding each row split to canonical form | MB/s | ms |
+
+Values are the median of `--iterations` runs. The `gh-json` output reports
+durations in milliseconds so that lower is better for every emitted metric; the
+human table reports MB/s over canonical uncompressed bytes.
+
+### The canonical baseline
+
+Every metric normalizes against canonical uncompressed bytes: one 16-byte view
+per row plus the bytes of the strings too long to inline, so a string of 12
+bytes or fewer costs only its view. The codec suite uses the same baseline.
+
+### How faithful the timings are
+
+Write and read run the real Vortex writer and scan on a current-thread runtime
+with no worker pool, so both timings are single-threaded CPU costs.
+
+`read` fuses the canonical decode into each row split's scan task — the shape
+production uses, where `into_record_batch_stream` fuses the Arrow conversion —
+and drops each decoded chunk before the next split runs, so steady-state memory
+is one chunk, not the whole column. Splits are awaited one at a time rather than
+through the scan's own stream, which spawns `concurrency *
+available_parallelism()` of them at once; on one thread that read-ahead buys no
+parallelism, it only holds more chunks in memory and ties the result to the
+host's core count.
+
+Excluded by design:
+
+- **Physical I/O** — the file lives in a `Vec<u8>` and `open_buffer` slices it,
+  so there is no read-driver request coalescing, no segment cache, and none of
+  the copying a real file or object-store read does.
+- **Parallel scan throughput** — production spreads splits across workers, so
+  these per-thread costs do not translate directly into query time.
+- **Filters and projections** — the whole column is read with no predicate, so
+  `read` is the full-decode cost, not decode-with-mask or compute pushdown.
+
+`size` covers encoded children, metadata, padding, and file markers.
+
+### Codec diagnostic
+
+`--suite codec` runs a separate microbenchmark: one whole-column encoder call,
+with no Vortex layout, child compression, serialization, or I/O.
+
+It is not part of the tracked set. Its size metric is also not interchangeable
+with the file suite's: it trains one dictionary or symbol table for the entire
+column and leaves the encoded array's children uncompressed, whereas Vortex
+writes in chunks and compresses those children.
+
+## Inputs and local data
+
+The current input catalog is:
+
+| Output name | Source |
+| --- | --- |
+| `clickbench/URL/shard-N` | ClickBench `hits_N.parquet`, `URL` column |
+| `tpch/l_comment` | TPC-H SF1 `lineitem`, `l_comment` column |
+
+On first use, the selected ClickBench shard is downloaded through
+`vortex-bench`'s shared idempotent downloader. TPC-H SF1 is generated
+deterministically through the shared TPC-H dataset helper. Both are stored
+under `vortex-bench/data/`, which is gitignored, and reused on later runs.
+Input preparation is outside benchmark timing.
+
+## Running locally
+
+```bash
+# Tracked metrics: size, write, read for every configured column and encoder.
+cargo run -p string-bench --profile release_debug --features unstable_encodings
+
+# Focus on selected columns or encoders.
+cargo run -p string-bench --profile release_debug --features unstable_encodings -- \
+  --columns URL --encoders onpair
+
+# Add the direct codec microbenchmark.
+cargo run -p string-bench --profile release_debug --features unstable_encodings -- \
+  --suite both
+
+# Emit benchmark-comparator JSONL.
+cargo run -p string-bench --profile release_debug --features unstable_encodings -- \
+  --display-format gh-json --output-path results.json
+```
+
+Run `cargo run -p string-bench --features unstable_encodings -- --help` for all
+filters and tuning options.
+
+Before timing, the benchmark checks that each requested encoding was produced
+and, unless `--no-verify` is set, compares decoded output with the input.
+
+## CI
+
+The develop benchmark workflow runs the default suite after each merge to
+`develop` and publishes the results to the shared benchmark history.
+
+Metric names are `<metric>/<input>/<encoder>`, for example
+`read/clickbench/URL/shard-0/onpair-12` and `size/tpch/l_comment/fsst`. The unit
+is reported separately in the JSON output and the CI table, which groups rows by
+unit — so metric-first names keep the rows you compare adjacent.

+//! Serialized Vortex benchmarks. Each timed iteration writes a fresh in-memory
+//! file with one string encoder forced and then reads it back:
+//!
+//! * **write** runs the full default write pipeline — repartition into row
+//!   blocks, zoned statistics, dictionary probe, coalesce, compress with the
+//!   forced string scheme and its children, layout, serialize into a buffer;
+//! * **read** opens that buffer and runs the scan, decoding each row split to
+//!   canonical `VarBinViewArray` form inside its own scan task and dropping it
+//!   before the next split runs — the shape production uses, where
+//!   `into_record_batch_stream` fuses the Arrow conversion into the split task.
+//!
+//! Both run on a current-thread runtime, so these are single-threaded CPU costs
+//! and exclude physical I/O.

Subject: [PATCH 148/498] Constrain List/ListView builder offset, size types to
 32 and 64 bit types (#9053)

In #8609 we have inverted the flow of the append_to_builder methods. The
side effect of that is we match on the builders but for lists the number
of match cases is excessive due to trait bounds being arbitrary integer
types. Realistically types smaller than u32 are not that useful as they
define the upper bound on the size of the array. This pr introduces
`OffsetBuilderPType` which constraints the offset and sizes buffer types
in ListBuilder.

We will use that on VarBinBuilder in a follow up

Subject: [PATCH 149/498] block_on_stream_thread_safe: increase channel size to
 number of cores (#9116)

Duckdb uses CurrentThreadRuntime which in turn uses smol executor.
`block_on_stream_thread_safe` is what allows it to drive scan from
multiple
threads. However, this method currently blocks on a channel of size 1
which
becomes a bottleneck if we run on a system with many cores, say 128-core
AWS c6id.metal.

Changing it to an item-per-core allows to save some time on large core
systems.

Subject: [PATCH 150/498] CI: Run each benchmark type separately (#9034)

As a particular example, clickbench queries for vortex are run after
clickbench queries for parquet and are influenced by them. To better
measure
performance, run a separate process for each benchmark type and
benchmark.

Drop OS caches after each benchmark to get closer to measuring true cold
runs.

Subject: [PATCH 151/498] Reenable float aggregation pushdown for duckdb except
 for min() (#9094)

Float aggregate pushdown was disabled in
https://github.com/vortex-data/vortex/pull/9069 because of nan handling.
For max,avg,sum,count, and first Vortex's behaviour
with include_nans() matches duckdb's so we can enable it.
Duckdb's min() NaN ordering, however, is incompatible so we still forbid
pushdown.

Forbid i64/u64 sum pushdown since an overflow/underflow in Vortex
returns NULLs but in Duckdb it returns i128/u128.

Change vortex benchmark to use i32 on columns to measure sum pushdown.

Resolves: #9085

Subject: [PATCH 153/498] CI: build benchmarks binaries once for all targets
 (#9121)

We've migrated to large metal runners for our benchmarks, and now build
time and debuginfo upload time dominates download time, so it makes
sense to avoid re-building.

This also is beneficial because large runners have lower availability,
so we want to use each for less time.

Continuation of https://github.com/vortex-data/vortex/pull/8010

Subject: [PATCH 155/498] Exectuion and optimization tracing harness for
 testing (#7814)

## Summary

Introduces an internal tracing API that enables testing execution and
optimization flows with snapshot testing! Just wrap your code into a
callaback and call `trace_op`, and you get back both the result and a
snapshot you can assert.

For example:
```rust
    #[test]
    fn trace_optimize_reduce_fixpoint() -> VortexResult<()> {
        let values = PrimitiveArray::from_iter([0i32, 1, 2, 3]).into_array();
        let filter =
            FilterArray::try_new(values.clone(), Mask::new_true(values.len()))?.into_array();

        let traced = trace_op(|| filter.optimize())?;

        assert!(traced.output.is::<Primitive>());
        assert_arrays_eq!(traced.output, values);
        insta::assert_snapshot!(traced.trace.to_string(), @r"
            optimize root=vortex.filter(i32, len=4) session=false
            reduce TrivialFilterRule: vortex.filter(i32, len=4) -> vortex.primitive(i32, len=4)
            done output=vortex.primitive(i32, len=4)
        ");

        Ok(())
    }
```

The API for tests is pretty nice, internally there are still
improvements that can be made here, but this is a good step towards
building more confidence and making the execution model clearer.

+//! Snapshot-friendly tracing harness for the optimizer and executor.
+//!
+//! # What this records
+//!
+//! [`trace_op`] runs a closure with a thread-local recorder installed. While the recorder is
+//! active, calls to the `trace_op!` macro inside the optimizer and executor push
+//! structured events into the recorder. The recorder produces a [`TraceDisplay`] that renders
+//! as a deterministic, hierarchical text trace suitable for `insta` snapshot assertions.
+//!
+//! Events cover:
+//!
+//! - **Optimization**: optimize/recursive-optimize entry, fixpoint loop iterations, applied
+//!   reduce rules, applied parent-reduce rules.
+//! - **Execution**: `execute_until` iterations, single-step entries, parent kernel attempts and
+//!   matches, slot transitions, builder start/append/finish, and the eventual canonical output.
+//!
+//! Despite the name `trace_op`, the harness is *not* a generic logging facility: it is closely
+//! coupled to the optimizer/executor state machines so that the resulting trace is stable enough
+//! to commit as a snapshot.
+//!
+//! # When to use it
+//!
+//! Use [`trace_op`] to write a regression test that asserts on the sequence of optimizer
+//! rewrites or executor steps an array goes through. Typical scenarios:
+//!
+//! - A reduce rule should fire exactly once on a specific input shape.
+//! - A parent kernel should be tried in a specific order and the first match should win.
+//! - The executor should walk into a slot, finish it, and pop back to the parent without
+//!   building a canonical intermediate.
+//! - A chunked array should drive the builder path rather than the stack path.
+//!
+//! Two resolutions are available:
+//!
+//! - [`TraceResolution::ExecutedOnly`] (default) — only events that actually fired (rule
+//!   rewrites that matched, kernels that succeeded, execution steps that ran). Optimizer
+//!   passes that produced no change are elided.
+//! - [`TraceResolution::Attempts`] — also records declined rule attempts, kernels that did
+//!   not match, and per-loop bookkeeping. Use this when ordering or fall-through matters.
+//!
+//! # Cost and scope
+//!
+//! - Capture is thread-local. Worker threads spawned inside `f` do not inherit the recorder.
+//! - Nested captures return an error so that unrelated traces never merge.
+//! - In release builds and CodSpeed benchmark builds, every `trace_op!` invocation is compiled
+//!   away by the macro's `cfg` gating; this module is then unused. See
+//!   `trace_op!` for the gating rules.
+//!
+//! # Example
+//!
+//! ```ignore
+//! use vortex_array::test_harness::trace::trace_op;
+//!
+//! let traced = trace_op(|| filter_array.optimize())?;
+//! assert!(traced.output.is::<Primitive>());
+//! insta::assert_snapshot!(traced.trace.to_string(), @r"
+//! optimize root=vortex.filter(i32, len=4) session=false
+//!   reduce TrivialFilterRule: vortex.filter(i32, len=4) -> vortex.primitive(i32, len=4)
+//!   done output=vortex.primitive(i32, len=4)

+/// Run `f` while capturing a trace of the optimizer and executor work it performs.
+///
+/// `f` typically invokes an operation that drives the executor or optimizer, such as
+/// [`ArrayOptimizer::optimize`][crate::optimizer::ArrayOptimizer::optimize] or
+/// [`ArrayRef::execute`][crate::ArrayRef::execute]. While `f` runs,
+/// the optimizer and executor emit structured events via the `trace_op!`
+/// macro into a thread-local recorder. When `f` returns, the recorder is finalized and
+/// returned alongside the closure's output as a [`Traced<T>`].
+///
+/// The default resolution ([`TraceResolution::ExecutedOnly`]) records the rule rewrites,
+/// parent kernels, execution steps, and builder activity that actually executed. Optimizer
+/// passes that produced no change are hidden from the rendered trace. Use [`trace_op_with`]
+/// with [`TraceResolution::Attempts`] when a test needs to assert on declined rule attempts,
+/// kernels that did not match, or other fall-through detail.
+///
+/// # Examples
+///
+/// ```ignore
+/// let traced = trace_op(|| filter_array.optimize())?;
+/// assert!(traced.output.is::<Primitive>());
+/// insta::assert_snapshot!(traced.trace.to_string(), @r"
+/// optimize root=vortex.filter(i32, len=4) session=false
+///   reduce TrivialFilterRule: vortex.filter(i32, len=4) -> vortex.primitive(i32, len=4)
+///   done output=vortex.primitive(i32, len=4)

+/// - When `test` OR `_test-harness` is on, AND `codspeed` is off, the body is compiled in and
+///   guarded by a runtime check for an active recorder.
+/// - In all other configurations, the body is replaced with `()`.
+///
+/// The macro is named `trace_op` because it records *operations* (optimizer rewrites, parent
+/// kernels, execution steps, builder activity) rather than array values. The events it emits
+/// describe what work the optimizer/executor did, not the contents of any array.

-/// Encoder for ALP-RD ("real doubles") values.
-///
-/// The encoder calculates its parameters from a single sample of floating-point values,
-/// and then can be applied to many vectors.
-///
-/// ALP-RD uses the algorithm outlined in Section 3.4 of the paper. The crux of it is that the front
-/// (most significant) bits of many double vectors tend to be  the same, i.e. most doubles in a
-/// vector often use the same exponent and front bits. Compression proceeds by finding the best
-/// prefix of up to 16 bits that can be collapsed into a dictionary of
-/// up to 8 elements. Each double can then be broken into the front/left `L` bits, which neatly
-/// bit-packs down to 1-3 bits per element (depending on the actual dictionary size).
-/// The remaining `R` bits naturally bit-pack.
-///
-/// In the ideal case, this scheme allows us to store a sequence of doubles in 49 bits-per-value.
-///
-/// Our implementation draws on the MIT-licensed [C++ implementation] provided by the original authors.

Subject: [PATCH 159/498] test(spark): characterize VortexBatchExec input
 partition planning (#8859)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

## Rationale for this change

`VortexBatchExec`
(`java/vortex-spark/src/main/java/dev/vortex/spark/read/VortexBatchExec.java`)
turns the scan's resolved paths into Spark `InputPartition`s, and it
currently has no
direct test coverage. Its planning contract is easy to break silently:
each `.vortex`
file must become exactly one `VortexFilePartition`, each partition must
carry the
Hive-style partition values parsed from *its own* path (not a
neighbour's), and the
read schema and format options must survive into every partition — these
are what the
executor-side reader relies on to materialize partition columns
correctly. This
continues the characterization-test series from #8770, #8782, #8783,
#8850, and #8857.

## What changes are included in this PR?

A new `VortexBatchExecTest` with 5 tests covering `planInputPartitions`
for explicit
`.vortex` paths (which never touch native directory listing, keeping
this a pure unit
test):

- one `VortexFilePartition` per file, each holding exactly one path;
- partitions preserve the input path order;
- the requested read schema is carried into every partition;
- Hive-style partition values are parsed from each file's own path
(`year=2024/month=01`
vs `year=2025/month=02` vs an unpartitioned path yielding an empty map);
- format options are propagated to every partition.

This is a **test-only** change; no production code is modified. All 5
tests pass
locally on both matrix legs (`:vortex-spark_2.12:test` and
`:vortex-spark_2.13:test`
with `--tests 'dev.vortex.spark.read.VortexBatchExecTest'`).

## What APIs are changed? Are there any user-facing changes?

None. No production code or public API is touched.

Subject: [PATCH 160/498] test(spark): characterize HadoopUtils S3 and Azure
 credential forwarding (#8850)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

## Rationale for this change

`HadoopUtils`
(`java/vortex-spark/src/main/java/dev/vortex/spark/config/HadoopUtils.java`)
is the bridge that forwards S3 and Azure credentials from the Spark
session's Hadoop
`Configuration` into the Vortex object-store property keys, and it
currently has no test
coverage. A silently broken key mapping here doesn't fail loudly — it
surfaces as
authentication errors (or unintentionally anonymous access via the Azure
`skip_signature` fallback) only when running against real cloud storage.
This continues
the characterization-test series from #8770 (`ArrowUtils`), #8782
(`SparkToArrowSchema`),
and #8783 (`PartitionPathUtils`).

## What changes are included in this PR?

A new `HadoopUtilsTest` covering both public methods:

- **`s3PropertiesFromHadoopConf`**: maps `fs.s3a.access.key` /
`fs.s3a.secret.key` /
`fs.s3a.session.token` / `fs.s3a.endpoint.region` to the corresponding
`aws_*` keys;
qualifies a bare `fs.s3a.endpoint` with `https://` while preserving
endpoints that
already carry an `http://` or `https://` scheme; ignores unrelated
Hadoop keys and
  returns an empty map for an empty configuration.
- **`azurePropertiesFromHadoopConf`**: extracts the storage account key
from any
  `fs.azure.account.key`-prefixed entry and the SAS token from any
`fs.azure.sas.fixed.token.`-prefixed entry; sets
`azure_skip_signature=true` whenever
no account key is present (including the SAS-token-only case); ignores
unrelated
  `fs.azure.*` keys.

This is a **test-only** change; no production code is modified. 10
tests, passing
locally on both matrix legs (`:vortex-spark_2.12:test` and
`:vortex-spark_2.13:test`
with `--tests 'dev.vortex.spark.config.HadoopUtilsTest'`).

## What APIs are changed? Are there any user-facing changes?

None. No production code or public API is touched.

Subject: [PATCH 162/498] feat(expr): add bound expressions (#9125)

Introduce a bound expr https://github.com/vortex-data/vortex/issues/9120

This will bind a DType to an expression.


There is a performance regression, but we would get a win if we computed
return_dtype for a bound expr! But binding may be slow (once).

Subject: [PATCH 163/498] fix(spark): include the offending path when schema
 inference finds no Vortex files (#8858)

## Rationale for this change

When `VortexDataSourceV2.inferSchema` is pointed at a directory that
contains no
`.vortex` files, it currently throws
`RuntimeException("UNABLE_TO_INFER_SCHEMA format: vortex")`. The message
does not say
*which* path failed, so with multi-path reads (or a typo'd location)
users have nothing
to go on. This is the same kind of diagnosability gap as #8759
(unsupported ColumnVector
type error message).

## What changes are included in this PR?

- `inferSchema` now throws `IllegalArgumentException` with a message
that names the
  offending path and suggests the likely fixes:
`Unable to infer schema for vortex: no .vortex files found under path
<path>. Check
that the path is correct and contains at least one Vortex file, or
provide an explicit
  schema.`
- The `@throws` javadoc on `inferSchema` is updated to match.
- A new `VortexDataSourceInferSchemaTest` reads an empty temp directory
through the real
`spark.read().format("vortex").load(...)` path and asserts the failure
message names
the path (walking the cause chain, since Spark may wrap data source
exceptions).

Passing locally on both matrix legs (`:vortex-spark_2.12:test` and
`:vortex-spark_2.13:test` with `--tests
'dev.vortex.spark.VortexDataSourceInferSchemaTest'`).

## What APIs are changed? Are there any user-facing changes?

The exception type thrown by `inferSchema` for the no-files case changes
from a bare
`RuntimeException` to `IllegalArgumentException` (still a
`RuntimeException` subtype),
and the message text changes as described. No other behavior changes.

Subject: [PATCH 164/498] fix `get_item` parent reduce rule (#9151)

Suppose we have nullable struct `S` with non-nullable field `A`. Even if
`S` is all-valid, `get_item("A")` should cast `A` as nullable.

Subject: [PATCH 165/498] perf(onpair): adopt onpair 0.2 storage-backed
 dictionary and safety-only validation (#9117)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

## Rationale for this change

`onpair` 0.2 allows to build a `CompactDictionary` over caller-owned
buffers, and `validate_safety`, which checks only the safety invariants
rather than full semantic well-formedness. Adopting both makes OnPair
file reads **1.25x faster**.

## What changes are included in this PR?

- Bump `onpair` 0.1.1 → 0.2.0.
- `OnPairData` memoizes a `CompactDictionary<OnPairDictionaryStorage>`
over the existing Vortex
  buffers (no copying), and validates it with `validate_safety`.
- New `OnPair::try_new_with_data` lets `OnPairScheme::compress` carry
that cache through the
  child-compression rebuild instead of discarding it.
- Replaces the local `DEFAULT_DICT12_CONFIG` with the re-exported
`onpair::DEFAULT_CONFIG`
  (identical values), and drops the redundant `OnPairData::len`.

`string-bench` `vortex` suite, median of 3 interleaved runs, FSST as an
untouched control:

| `read` (ms) | develop | this PR | Change |
| --- | --- | --- | ---: |
| `clickbench/URL/shard-0` `onpair-12` | 12.95 | 10.36 | **−20.0%** |
| `tpch/l_comment` `onpair-12` | 32.96 | 26.29 | **−20.2%** |
| `clickbench/URL/shard-0` `fsst` | 17.41 | 17.35 | −0.3% |
| `tpch/l_comment` `fsst` | 26.63 | 26.32 | −1.2% |

Encoded size is byte-identical; write times are unchanged.

## What APIs are changed? Are there any user-facing changes?

None. The on-disk format is unchanged (golden tests pass unmodified),
and `vortex-onpair` is gated
behind `unstable_encodings` with `vortex-btrblocks` as its only in-tree
consumer. Within that
crate, `OnPairData::new` loses its `len` parameter, `OnPairData::len` /
`is_empty` are removed, and
`OnPair::try_new_with_data` is new.

Subject: [PATCH 166/498] perf(vortex-geo): short-circuit predicates with
 bounding boxes (#9076)

## Rationale for this change

Constant-vs-column geometry predicates currently run the exact spatial
predicate for every valid row, even when the constant and row bounding
rectangles already prove that the result is false. For complex constant
geometries and spatially selective queries, this repeats substantially
more work than necessary.

## What changes are included in this PR?

- Add an optional bounding-rectangle pre-check to the shared
null-propagating binary geometry executor.
- Short-circuit `vortex.geo.intersects` when operand rectangles are
disjoint.
- Short-circuit `vortex.geo.contains` when the container rectangle
cannot cover the contained rectangle, preserving operand order.
- Keep `vortex.geo.distance` on exact evaluation because rectangles
cannot determine the result.
- Preserve null propagation and fall back to exact evaluation for empty
geometries or overlapping rectangles.
- Add regression coverage for short-circuiting, nulls, operand order,
empty geometries, exact-result equivalence, containment, and distance.
- Add the `predicate_bbox` Divan microbenchmark.

### Microbenchmark

Command:

```bash
cargo bench -p vortex-geo --bench predicate_bbox -- --min-time 0.1 --sample-count 10
```

The benchmark evaluates 8,192 points against a 128-vertex constant
polygon. Median results:

| Predicate / workload | Exact | Bounding-box pre-check | Change |
| --- | ---: | ---: | ---: |
| `contains`, disjoint | 689.0 us | 16.87 us | 40.8x faster |
| `contains`, candidate | 674.4 us | 667.4 us | 1.0% faster |
| `intersects`, disjoint | 670.5 us | 16.79 us | 39.9x faster |
| `intersects`, candidate | 653.5 us | 670.4 us | 2.6% slower |

Subject: [PATCH 167/498] chore: tidy up a few compile-time assertions (#9158)

Uses `const { assert!(..) }` for the function-body assertion in
`build_views` to match the existing const-block sites, removes a
redundant block around the single `assert!` in `vortex-error`, and
corrects a doc comment that claimed `DType` is 16 bytes while the
assertion below it checked for 24.

Subject: [PATCH 168/498] fix(zstd): validate frame content sizes (#9164)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

## Rationale for this change

Fuzzing found that zstd (arrays + buffers) serialised output sizes were
not validated against the declared uncompressed sizes in frame headers.

## What changes are included in this PR?

Validate serialized zstd output sizes against frame headers before CPU
allocation and host-backed GPU planning. Add regressions for zstd arrays
and zstd buffers.

Note that as long as the size declared in the frame header matches
what's declared in metadata, allocations are not bounded. But this is
much harder to fix, since zstd can essentially decompress to
`⌈compressed_len/3⌉ × 128 KiB` which is ~42GiB per MiB of compressed
data so not particularly useful as a bound.

## What APIs are changed? Are there any user-facing changes?

Malformed files where output sizes declared in zstd frames don't match
the header are now refused instead of allocating a buffer of
file-controlled size.

Investigated and built with Codex.

Subject: [PATCH 170/498] fix(spark): correct the @throws contract on
 VortexScanBuilder.build (#9162)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

The Javadoc on `VortexScanBuilder.build()` promised
`IllegalStateException` when no columns had been added:

```java
 * @throws IllegalStateException if no paths or columns have been added
```

but `build()` deliberately allows an empty column list — aggregates such
as `count()` need not project any data — and only the path check is
enforced:

```java
checkState(!paths.isEmpty(), "paths cannot be empty");
```

This documents what the method actually does, and promotes the
explanatory implementation comment into the Javadoc where callers can
see it.

Doc-only, no behavior change.

## Tests

- `./gradlew javadoc` — clean
- `./gradlew :vortex-spark_2.13:test --tests 'dev.vortex.spark.read.*'`
— 49/49 pass
- `./gradlew :vortex-spark_2.13:spotlessCheck` and
`:vortex-spark_2.12:spotlessCheck` — clean

Subject: [PATCH 171/498] test(spark): characterize VortexTable capabilities
 and builders (#9160)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

`VortexTable` had no unit tests. This pins the table-level contract
Spark relies on, in the same style as the recent `VortexBatchExec` and
`HadoopUtils` characterization tests.

Covered:

- the exact capability set (`BATCH_READ`, `BATCH_WRITE`, `TRUNCATE`)
- how `name()` renders from the table paths, for one path and several
- `schema()` and `partitioning()` round-tripping unchanged
- `newScanBuilder` starting from the full table schema, and the scan
description carrying every path
- the write-path guard: writes target a single output path, so
`newWriteBuilder` goes through `Iterables.getOnlyElement` and rejects a
table built from several paths (`IllegalArgumentException`) or none
(`NoSuchElementException`)

Pure JVM unit tests, no `SparkSession` and no filesystem access.

## Tests

- `./gradlew :vortex-spark_2.13:test --tests
'dev.vortex.spark.VortexTableTest'` — 8/8 pass
- `./gradlew :vortex-spark_2.12:test --tests
'dev.vortex.spark.VortexTableTest'` — 8/8 pass
- `./gradlew :vortex-spark_2.13:spotlessCheck` — clean
- `./gradlew javadoc` — clean

Subject: [PATCH 172/498] test(spark): characterize VortexCatalog path
 identifier resolution (#9161)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

`VortexCatalog` — the path-based catalog behind ``SELECT * FROM
vortex.`/path` `` — was only exercised end-to-end through
`VortexSqlTest`, which starts a real session. This pins the identifier
contract directly, without starting Spark.

Covered:

- the catalog name comes from `initialize`, and defaults to `vortex`
before it is called
- `listTables` is always empty: the catalog holds no state, tables are
addressed by path
- an identifier with no `/` is not a table, and neither is a namespaced
one even when the name looks like a path
- a path-shaped identifier that cannot be read is deliberately
translated into `NoSuchTableException`, so SQL users see "table not
found" rather than an internal error
- `dropTable` reports that nothing was dropped rather than deleting data
- `CREATE`, `ALTER` and `RENAME TABLE` are unsupported

## Tests

- `./gradlew :vortex-spark_2.13:test --tests
'dev.vortex.spark.VortexCatalogTest'` — 10/10 pass
- `./gradlew :vortex-spark_2.12:test --tests
'dev.vortex.spark.VortexCatalogTest'` — 10/10 pass
- `./gradlew :vortex-spark_2.13:spotlessCheck` — clean

DynVarBinBuilder was unncessary but through all of builder migrations we

VarBinBuilder builder behaviour and replaces all usages of
DynVarBinBuilder with appropriate downcast of VarBinBuilder. After #9053
VarBinBuilder offsets should be constrainted to the same bound

Subject: [PATCH 174/498] fix(spark): delete aborted output through the native
 filesystem layer (#9172)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

`abort()` fed the writers' URL paths to `java.nio`'s `Paths.get`, which
does not parse URLs:

```
Paths.get("file:///tmp/out/part-00000-0.vortex")
  -> file:/tmp/out/part-00000-0.vortex   (isAbsolute=false)
```

So `Files.exists` was always false and the job-level cleanup silently
deleted nothing; for `s3://` it could never work. Every partial file of
a failed write was left behind.

Delete through `NativeFiles` instead — the same layer the writers used,
and the same call the overwrite path already makes a few lines above —
so URL paths resolve identically on cleanup and on write. A cleanup
failure is logged rather than thrown, since `abort()` runs while the job
is already failing.

**Worth a careful look:** this makes a currently-inert destructive path
actually delete files. That is the intent of `abort()` and it only ever
touches paths the tasks themselves reported, but it is a behavior change
rather than a no-op fix. The `log.warn` before the delete follows the
precedent set by #8767 for the overwrite path.

## Tests

No new test: the failure only reproduces when a write job aborts
mid-flight, which the suite has no fixture for. Verified no regression
in the write and catalog paths that exercise `VortexBatchWrite`:

- `./gradlew :vortex-spark_2.13:test --tests
'dev.vortex.spark.VortexDataSourceWriteTest' --tests
'dev.vortex.spark.VortexSessionCatalogTest' --tests
'dev.vortex.spark.VortexSqlTest'` — 19/19 pass
- same on `:vortex-spark_2.12:test` — pass
- `spotlessCheck` (both Scala versions) and `javadoc` — clean

`VortexDataSourceS3MockTest` fails locally for lack of a Docker
environment, unrelated to this change.

Subject: [PATCH 175/498] docs(spark): update the published version coordinates
 (#9171)

The README's example coordinates still named `0.78.0`, five releases
behind the `0.83.0` currently on Maven Central, so anyone copying the
`spark-shell --jars` URL or the dependency snippet pulled a stale JAR.

Nothing regenerates these, so they need updating by hand.

## Tests

Verified the coordinates resolve:

```
$ curl -sI https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/dev/vortex/vortex-spark_2.13/0.83.0/vortex-spark_2.13-0.83.0-all.jar
HTTP 200
```

`0.83.0` is the current `<release>` in the `maven-metadata.xml` of both
`vortex-spark_2.13` and `vortex-spark_2.12`.

## Rationale for this change

Seems like I've pinned the codspeed action and runner versions around 4
months ago, this PR bumps them to the latest versions and restores the
format that renovate understands so it'll keep bumping it.

Subject: [PATCH 177/498] feat: support bound expressions in partitioning
 (#9157)

This is done before using `BoundExpression` in layouts due a lock of
partitioning causing a perf regression

## Summary

- add identity-keyed traversal, annotation, and labeling support for
`BoundExpression`
- add `partition_bound` / `partition_bound_annotations` and a bound
partition result
- keep partition roots and child expressions bound so downstream callers
preserve shared tree identity
- use `ExactBoundExpr` for bound analysis maps so lazy schema dtypes are
not structurally hashed

From bc9aa104a8f845889a1655daf6145ebd2356c59e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Adam Gutglick <adam@spiraldb.com>
Date: Tue, 4 Aug 2026 15:49:02 +0100
Subject: [PATCH 178/498] Add Map logical type and scalar support (#9107)

## Rationale for this change

Vortex currently has no native logical map type, so Arrow maps must be
represented as lists of structs and lose map-specific semantics such as
non-null keys and the `keys_sorted` assertion. This provides the
type-level foundation for native Map support; #9108 builds on it with
canonical arrays and builders. Related to #428.

## What changes are included in this PR?

- Adds `DType::Map` and `MapDType`, including key/value dtypes, outer
nullability, sortedness, validation, coercion, display, equality, and
hashing.
- Adds map scalar construction and typed access through `Scalar::map`,
`Scalar::try_map`, and `MapScalar`.
- Adds map dtype and scalar serialization through Serde, Protobuf, and
FlatBuffers.
- Adds Arrow dtype/schema round-tripping, Vortex-to-Arrow map scalar
conversion, and DataFusion physical-schema reconciliation.
- Tests cover dtype and scalar validation, null and empty maps,
coercion, serialization round-trips, Arrow schema conversion, and nested
extension metadata.

## What APIs are changed? Are there any user-facing changes?

This adds the public `DType::Map` and `ScalarValue::Map` variants,
`MapDType`, `MapScalar`, and their constructors and accessors. Consumers
that exhaustively match `DType` or `ScalarValue` must handle the new
variants. The Protobuf and FlatBuffers dtype schemas also gain Map
variants.

This PR supports Map dtypes, schemas, and scalars, but not full Arrow
`MapArray` transport.

From 490dfac857ef48287be67fb43006f63fe50da9db Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Adam Gutglick <adam@spiraldb.com>
Date: Tue, 4 Aug 2026 16:29:33 +0100
Subject: [PATCH 179/498] Add canonical Map arrays and builder (#9108)

## Rationale for this change

Building on the logical type and scalar support in #9107, this makes
map-typed arrays constructible, canonicalizable, and serializable. A
dedicated canonical representation preserves Map semantics instead of
treating maps as ordinary lists of structs.

## What changes are included in this PR?

- Adds the `vortex.map` canonical encoding, backed by
`ListView<Struct<key, value>>` storage while retaining the Map dtype and
`keys_sorted` assertion.
- Adds `MapArray`, validated construction, entry access, validity
delegation, scalar access, serialization, and session registration.
- Adds `MapBuilder` and integrates Map values with generic builder and
canonicalization paths, including empty, constant, and chunked arrays.
- Tests cover valid and malformed storage, nullable and empty values,
duplicate and unsorted keys, builder append behavior, canonicalization,
scalar access, and serialization round-trips.

## What APIs are changed? Are there any user-facing changes?

This adds the public `Map`, `MapArray`, `MapArrayExt`, `MapDataParts`,
and `MapBuilder` APIs. `Canonical` and `CanonicalView` gain Map variants
and corresponding accessors, so exhaustive matches over those enums must
handle Map arrays.

Map arrays can now be built, canonicalized, inspected, and serialized.
Compute paths such as take, filter, masking, compression, and Arrow
array transport continue to reject Map arrays at this point in the
stack.

Subject: [PATCH 180/498] Remove libc6-dbg install for codspeed (#9178)

## Rationale for this change

Seems like our AMIs already have it installed, and `apt-get update`
seems to stall randomly.

From a recent
[run](https://github.com/vortex-data/vortex/actions/runs/30920901763/job/92040114831?pr=9108):
```
Fetched 39.6 MB in 4min 11s (158 kB/s)

libc6-dbg is already the newest version (2.39-0ubuntu8.8).

Subject: [PATCH 181/498] docs: make the 1 ms benchmark iteration budget an
 explicit maximum (#9176)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

## Rationale for this change

The benchmarking guide asked for "less than 1ms" per iteration without
saying whether that was an aspiration or a limit, and without saying
which number to measure against it.

That gap showed up in review on #9136, where benchmarks landed at 23.8
ms and 123.4 ms per iteration. The review conversation there had no
documented rule to point at — as noted on that PR, the guide "has
nothing about benchmarks being too long".

This documents the rule first, on its own, so it can be cited
independently of any tooling that enforces it.

## What changes are included in this PR?

Docs only — one section of `docs/developer-guide/benchmarking.md`:

- States that **1 ms is the maximum, not a soft target**.
- Says what to do when a benchmark does not fit: shrink the input, split
it into smaller parameterized cases, or gate it with
`#[cfg(not(codspeed))]`.
- Names the number to check: the **per-iteration** time CodSpeed reports
under `HEAD` for every benchmark a PR adds or changes — not the runtime
of the whole benchmark binary, which is what "this benchmark takes too
long" usually gets confused with.

The heading loses its `~` (`under ~1 ms` → `under 1 ms`), which leaves
the existing anchor `#keep-per-iteration-execution-time-under-1-ms`
unchanged.

A follow-up branch adds CI that reads CodSpeed's report and comments
when a new or changed benchmark exceeds this budget. It is deliberately
kept out of this PR so the rule can be agreed on its own.

## What APIs are changed? Are there any user-facing changes?

No code, no API changes. Documentation only.

+**1 ms is the maximum, not a soft target.** Each individual iteration of the benchmarked
+closure must complete in less than 1 ms. This is to keep benchmarks snappy, locally and on
+CI.
+
+A benchmark that needs longer than that is measuring too much work at once. Shrink the
+input size until a single iteration fits, split it into smaller parameterized cases, or
+gate it with `#[cfg(not(codspeed))]` if it genuinely cannot be made to fit.
+
+The number to check against the budget is the per-iteration time, not the time the whole
+benchmark binary takes. CodSpeed reports exactly that: its performance report on a pull
+request lists the per-iteration time under `HEAD` for every benchmark the pull request adds
+or changes, so check any new benchmark there before merging.

Subject: [PATCH 187/498] fix(spark): write null array elements as nulls
 instead of zeros (#9169)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

The `ArrayType` branch of `populateVector` wrote every element through
`populateVector` without checking `ArrayData.isNullAt`, unlike the
top-level field path and the struct-child path which both check.

For a fixed-width element that silently corrupts data.
`UnsafeArrayData.getInt` does not consult the null bitset — it reads the
element slot directly — and `UnsafeArrayWriter.setNull4Bytes` zeroes
that slot, so the read returns `0`; `IntVector.setSafe` then marks the
position valid. `array(1, null, 3)` was written as a non-null `[1, 0,
3]`.

Variable-width elements happened to survive: their getters return `null`
and the existing `str != null` guard skips the write, leaving the
validity bit clear.

## Tests

New round-trip case in `VortexDataSourceWriteTest` covering fixed-width,
floating-point and variable-width elements. It fails on the parent
commit:

```
expected: <[1, null, 3]> but was: <[1, 0, 3]>
```

- `./gradlew :vortex-spark_2.13:test --tests
'dev.vortex.spark.VortexDataSourceWriteTest'` — 10/10 pass
- `./gradlew :vortex-spark_2.12:test --tests
'dev.vortex.spark.VortexDataSourceWriteTest'` — 10/10 pass
- `spotlessCheck` (both Scala versions) and `javadoc` — clean

`VortexDataSourceS3MockTest` fails locally for lack of a Docker
environment, unrelated to this change.

Subject: [PATCH 188/498] feat(datafusion): allow configuring
 `ExpressionConvertor` on `VortexFormat` and `VortexFormatFactory` (#9185)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

## Rationale for this change

<!--
Why are you proposing this change, and what is its impact?
Is it part of a long term effort, or a bigger change?

If this PR is related to a tracked effort or an open issue, please link
to the relevant issue.
-->

`VortexSource::with_expression_convertor` already allows swapping in a
custom `ExpressionConvertor`, but there was no way to configure one when
the source is created through `VortexFormat` / `VortexFormatFactory` —
the path used by `ListingTable` and `CREATE EXTERNAL TABLE`. Engine
integrations that need a custom expression conversion or pushdown
strategy could not use it through those entry points.

This PR plumbs an optional `ExpressionConvertor` through
`VortexFormatFactory` and `VortexFormat` so that every `VortexSource`
they create picks it up. This makes the workaround suggested in #8763
(rejecting unsupported pushdowns via a custom convertor) usable from the
`ListingTable` path, where the source is created by the format rather
than constructed directly.

- Related to: #8763

## What changes are included in this PR?

<!--
No need to duplicate information from the previous section, but if
you're touching many
parts of the code base, it's worth explicitly noting the important
changes or how they are tested.
-->

- `VortexFormatFactory::with_expression_convertor` and
`VortexFormat::with_expression_convertor` builder methods; the convertor
is forwarded through `FileFormatFactory::create` / `default()` and
`FileFormat::file_source` into the `VortexSource`.
- Re-export `ProcessedProjection` from `vortex_datafusion::convert`. The
`ExpressionConvertor` trait was already public, but `split_projection`
returned a type that downstream crates could not name. The trait
documentation now includes a compiling downstream implementation
example.
- Manual `Debug` impls for `VortexFormat` / `VortexFormatFactory` that
report whether a custom convertor is set (the trait object itself is not
`Debug`).

## How was this tested?

- Unit tests cover `VortexFormat` directly and both
`VortexFormatFactory` entry points (`create` and `default`). A rejecting
test convertor verifies that `can_be_pushed_down` is consulted, the
filter is reported as `PushedDown::No`, and `convert` is not called for
rejected filters.
- An end-to-end `CREATE EXTERNAL TABLE` test registers a factory with a
custom convertor, inserts data, executes a filtered query, verifies both
`can_be_pushed_down` and `convert` are called, and validates the result.
- A compiling doctest implements `ExpressionConvertor` through the
public `vortex_datafusion::convert` API, proving downstream crates can
name `ProcessedProjection`.

Validation:

- `cargo nextest run -p vortex-datafusion`
- `cargo test --doc -p vortex-datafusion`
- `cargo clippy -p vortex-datafusion --all-targets --all-features -- -D
warnings`
- `cargo +nightly fmt --all -- --check`

## What APIs are changed? Are there any user-facing changes?

<!--
Are there any user-facing changes that might require documentation
updates?
Is any public API changed?
-->

- New public methods: `VortexFormatFactory::with_expression_convertor`,
`VortexFormat::with_expression_convertor`.
- Newly re-exported: `vortex_datafusion::convert::ProcessedProjection`.
- No behavior change for existing users: without a configured convertor,
sources keep using `DefaultExpressionConvertor` as before.

Compat:: while creating a filesystem makes duckdb integration use
Tokio. Tokio is bad on 64/128 core machines because it spawns every read
into a blocking pool. On 128 core contention eats 48% of runtime

Subject: [PATCH 190/498] chore(deps): bump opendal to 0.58.1 (#9163)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

## Rationale for this change

Bump Apache OpenDAL to the latest stable 0.58.1 (released 2026-07-31)
and keep `object_store_opendal` on the matching 0.58 line so COS/OSS
object-store paths stay aligned with upstream.

## What changes are included in this PR?

- Workspace deps: `opendal` 0.57.0 → 0.58.1; `object_store_opendal`
0.57.0 → 0.58.0 (latest published on the 0.58 line; depends on `opendal
^0.58.0`)
- `vortex-cloud`: drop `.finish()` after `Operator::new` (OpenDAL 0.58
returns a finished operator)

Validated locally:

- `cargo check -p vortex-cloud --features opendal`
- `cargo test -p vortex-cloud --features opendal --lib` (14 passed)
- `cargo test -p vortex-cloud --features "registry,opendal" --lib` (22
passed)
- `cargo check -p vortex --features opendal`

## What APIs are changed? Are there any user-facing changes?

No public Vortex API changes. Consumers that enable the `opendal`
feature will resolve the newer OpenDAL crates transitively.

Subject: [PATCH 191/498] refactor: propagate bound expressions through layouts
 (#9126)

This is part of the migration to use `BoundExpression` thought vortex
internals. https://github.com/vortex-data/vortex/issues/9120

## Summary

- carry bound projections and filters through scan plans and
`LayoutReader` evaluation
- use the bound partitioner from #9157 in struct, row-index, and
dictionary readers
- cache and reuse exact bound partition trees across row splits


## Break

LayoutReader api not take a `BoundExpression` it should be easy to make
one with `Expression::bind`

Subject: [PATCH 193/498] Upgrade to fsst 0.6.0 and guard against out of bounds
 codes (#9149)

Since the compressor now requires padded state to guarantee codes don't
access out of bounds memory we need to adjust construction and usage to
preserve padding

Subject: [PATCH 194/498] Add a Normalized encoding for tensor columns (#9138)

Adds `Normalized`, a norm-split array encoding for tensor columns with
`normalized` and `norms` children.

Tracking issue: https://github.com/vortex-data/vortex/issues/9129

`Normalized` owns the physical decomposition and validates the invariant
between its children. Scalar functions remain operations over any
well-typed input, while the encoding can guarantee that its direction
child is unit-normalized and that its stored norm is valid.

## Changes

- Renames `L2Denorm` and `encodings::l2_denorm` to `Normalized` and
`encodings::normalized`.
- `Normalized::try_new` validates exact normalized rows.
`Normalized::new_unchecked` admits structurally valid lossy children
whose stored norms remain authoritative.
- Slice and filter push down into both children, preserving the
encoding.
- `NormalizedScheme` cascades compression into both children.
- Cosine similarity, inner product, and L2 norm keep their read-through
paths for `Normalized` arrays.

## API changes

| Before | After |
| --- | --- |
| `scalar_fns::l2_denorm::*` | `encodings::normalized::*` |
| `L2Denorm::try_new_array(n, s, ctx)` | `Normalized::try_new(n, s,
ctx)` |
| `unsafe L2Denorm::new_array_unchecked(n, s)` | `unsafe
Normalized::new_unchecked(n, s)` |
| `L2Denorm::new()` | removed |
| `session.scalar_fns().register(L2Denorm)` |
`session.arrays().register(Normalized)`, unconditional |
| `ScalarFnArrayPlugin::new(L2Denorm)` | removed |

The array ID is now `vortex.tensor.normalized`; the serialized child
metadata layout is unchanged. `NormalizedScheme` remains out of
`ALL_SCHEMES`.

+/// [`AnyTensor`]: `Vector` and `FixedShapeTensor`.
+///
+/// # Invariants
+///
+/// Every [`NormalizedArray`] structurally guarantees, via [`VTable::validate`]:
+///
+/// - `normalized` is a tensor-like extension array with a float element type.
+/// - `norms` is a primitive column whose ptype equals the tensor element ptype.
+/// - both children have the array's length.
+/// - the array dtype is `normalized.dtype().union_nullability(norms.nullability())`.
+///
+/// On top of that, [`try_new`](Self::try_new) enforces the semantic invariants that make the split
+/// lossless:
+///
+/// - every valid row of `normalized` has L2 norm `1.0` or `0.0`, within the tolerance implied by
+///   the element precision.
+/// - every stored norm is non-negative.
+/// - a stored norm of `0.0` is paired with an all-zero normalized row.
+///
+/// # Lossy normalized children
+///
+/// [`new_unchecked`](Self::new_unchecked) deliberately skips the semantic scan so that
+/// `normalized` may be an *approximation* of the unit-norm direction, such as a quantized child.
+/// The stored norms stay authoritative in that case, and the read-through rules in
+/// [`L2Norm`], [`InnerProduct`], and [`CosineSimilarity`] are defined against the stored children
+/// rather than against decoded coordinates. Those operators may therefore return slightly
+/// different answers than fully decoding both operands and recomputing. That difference is the
+/// storage contract, not a separate lossy-compute mode.

Subject: [PATCH 196/498] ci: add focused PR benchmark labels (#9018)

Adds focused PR benchmark triggers:

- `action/bench-random-access`
- `action/bench-compress`
- `action/bench-string`
(https://github.com/vortex-data/vortex/pull/9060)
- `action/bench-sql` (excludes Vortex Compact)
- `action/bench-sql-compact` (Vortex Compact plus Parquet controls)
- `action/bench-all` (random access, compression, string encoding, and
SQL, while GPU remains separate)

Each trigger dispatches a role-specific reusable workflow. PR benchmarks
check out `github.event.pull_request.head.sha`. SQL coverage stays in
the Python catalog and is resolved into a matrix at runtime. The all-CPU
path uses a single `pr-all` preset (the exact union of `pr` and
`pr-compact`), so shared SQL jobs run once instead of twice.

Benchmark reporting now:

- Keeps the latest rerun for each logical timing or file-size result.
- Includes Parquet controls in `pr-compact` to distinguish code changes
from runner drift.
- Namespaces remote datasets by preset to prevent concurrent jobs from
clobbering each other.

TODO: After merge, delete the legacy `action/benchmark*` labels once
`develop` uses the new dispatcher.

 Benchmarks run automatically on all commits to `develop` and can be run on-demand for PRs:
 
-- **Post-commit** -- compression, random access, and SQL benchmarks run on every commit to
-  `develop`, with results uploaded for historical tracking.
-- **PR benchmarks** -- triggered by the `action/benchmark` label. Results are compared against
-  the latest `develop` run and posted as a PR comment.
-- **GPU compression benchmarks** -- triggered by the `action/benchmark-gpu-compress` label. Runs
-  the allow-listed Vortex decompression cases on a GPU runner and posts the timings as a PR comment.
-- **SQL benchmarks** -- triggered by the `action/benchmark-sql` label. Runs the base SQL matrix,
-  which excludes Appian, TPC-H SF=10 on S3, `vortex-compact`, and `duckdb:duckdb`.
-- **Full SQL benchmarks** -- triggered by the `action/benchmark-sql-full` label. Runs the full
-  SQL matrix of suites, engines, formats, and storage backends (NVMe, S3).
+- **Post-commit** -- compression, string encoding, random access, and SQL benchmarks run on every
+  commit to `develop`, with results uploaded for historical tracking.
+- **Random access** -- `action/bench-random-access` runs only the random-access benchmark.
+- **Compression** -- `action/bench-compress` runs only the compression benchmark.
+- **String encoding** -- `action/bench-string` runs only the string encoding benchmark.
+- **GPU compression** -- `action/bench-gpu-compress` runs the allow-listed Vortex decompression
+  cases on a GPU runner.
+- **SQL** -- `action/bench-sql` runs the `pr` preset, which excludes `vortex-compact`.
+- **SQL Compact** -- `action/bench-sql-compact` runs the `pr-compact` preset, which benchmarks
+  `vortex-compact` plus Parquet control rows used to distinguish code changes from runner drift.
+- **All CPU benchmarks** -- `action/bench-all` runs random access, compression, string encoding,
+  and the `pr-all` SQL preset, which combines the `pr` and `pr-compact` coverage without
+  repeating shared jobs. Do not combine it with other benchmark labels; GPU compression is the
+  only exception.
 
 All CI benchmarks run on dedicated instances with the `release_debug` profile and
 `-C target-cpu=native` to produce representative numbers.

Subject: [PATCH 199/498] Add scalar function performance baselines (#9136)

## Summary

Tracking Issue: https://github.com/vortex-data/vortex/issues/9128

Adds stable scalar function performance baselines for `byte_length`,
`l2_norm`, `normalized`, `inner_product`, `cosine_similarity`,
`GeoContains`, and `GeoIntersects`.

The benchmark sizes are all comfortably above the roughly
146-instruction Divan harness floor from #9011. Each benchmark binary
also uses vendored `mimalloc`, since scalar function execution allocates
its output inside the timed trace and glibc differences between runner
images caused the flakes fixed in #8861.

## Why

Codspeed can only compare a later implementation change when the same
benchmark name already exists on `develop`, so these baselines need to
land before the `RowFn` things I want to make. And these are pretty
cheap, might as well add them.

+//! Microbenchmarks for the binary geometry predicates `ST_Contains` and `ST_Intersects`, focused
+//! on the cost of a batch-constant operand.
+//!
+//! The constant is a 128-vertex query polygon, the shape a spatial filter broadcasts against a
+//! column. Arms pair it with a point column (geo answers those pairings with direct
+//! point-in-polygon algorithms) and with a small-polygon column (geo routes those pairings through
+//! bounding-box prechecks and `relate`), covering both a mostly-disjoint dataset where the bbox
+//! early-out rejects nearly every row and an all-overlapping one where it never does. The
+//! column-x-column arms are the control: no operand is constant, so a prepared path has nothing to
+//! hoist and must not regress them.
+//!
+//! `contains` has no all-overlapping arm. One `contains(query polygon, contained square)` row
+//! builds a topology graph over the constant's 128 edges, which CodSpeed's CPU simulation charges
+//! around 120 µs, so no row count both fits the per-iteration budget and exercises the row loop.
+//! [`intersects::polygons_overlapping_x_constant`] covers the never-rejects case instead.
+//!
+//! Run with `cargo bench -p vortex-geo --bench binary_predicates`.

Subject: [PATCH 203/498] fix: ignore zero-byte benchmark file identities
 (#9197)

Fixes file-size reporting when either the baseline or HEAD records an
empty file. The report previously dropped the zero-byte row and then
treated its missing counterpart as `0 B`, which could report a false
deletion or a newly created file.

File identities with a zero-byte record on either side are now excluded
from both sides before totals and missing-file comparisons. The
regression test covers both asymmetric cases.

Checks: `uv run --no-project --with orjson --with pandas pytest
scripts/tests/test_benchmark_reporting.py` and `ruff check
scripts/compare-benchmark-jsons.py
scripts/tests/test_benchmark_reporting.py`.

Subject: [PATCH 204/498] fix(buffer): bound alignment exponents read from
 untrusted input (#9155)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

## Rationale for this change

Found a few places where untrusted alignments from input files are not
properly validated and can lead to excessive allocation sizes / OOMs.

Alignments in the file format are a power-of-two exponent in a `u8`, and
`try_from_exponent` only rejects exponents that would overflow a `usize`
shift. Satisfying an alignment can require copying the buffer into an
allocation of `len + alignment` bytes, so an exponent of 40 on a 4-byte
buffer asks the reader for 1 TiB.

This cannot be contained by the caller: Rust aborts via
`handle_alloc_error` when an allocation fails rather than unwinding, so
it is a process abort rather than an error. Fuzzing the reader found it
from two directions, array-tree buffer descriptors and footer segment
specs, with exponents from 32 to 61.

- Related: #8819

## What changes are included in this PR?

- `Alignment::MAX_UNTRUSTED` (64K) and
`Alignment::try_from_untrusted_exponent`, which rejects anything above
it.
- Use it wherever an exponent comes from a file or message: array-tree
buffer descriptors, footer segment specs, postscript segments, and IPC
buffer messages. The IPC path used the panicking `from_exponent`.
- Regression tests for the array-tree and footer-segment paths, and for
the constructor's bounds.

## What APIs are changed? Are there any user-facing changes?

`Alignment` gains a public const and constructor. Reading a file that
declares a buffer or segment alignment above 65536 now errors where it
previously succeeded. 64K is what some ARM chips use as page alignment,
but larger alignments aren't useful here.

I used Claude Code to investigate this and draw up the initial fix and
write the tests. The issue itself was found using a libFuzzer-based
harness.

Subject: [PATCH 205/498] Add Map core edition (#9195)

## Rationale for this change

New version that includes the map array and some testing changes around
that.

Not sure what's our process for new editions is, but figured I'll at
least put this up. Should the array not be in the default session until
then? How do we manage this process?

Subject: [PATCH 206/498] Benchmark unsigned 64-bit multiplication (#9211)

Adds a `mul_u64_nonnull` case to `binary_ops`. The suite covers `Mul` at
every signed width and at `u8`, `u16` and `u32`, but not at `u64`, which
takes a different overflow check because it has no wider native type to
widen into.

This lands separately so that CodSpeed records a baseline on `develop`
before #9210 changes that check. Measured on that PR, the width gains
1.8x, which no existing benchmark would have caught.

Subject: [PATCH 207/498] Share fixed-width structural array operations (#8864)

## Why

Primitive and Decimal are different logical types, but their structural
operations both move fixed-width records from one values buffer and
propagate validity. Keeping separate take/filter pipelines meant fixes
and optimizations still had to be maintained twice.

## What

- add a three-hook `FixedWidthArray` adapter for byte width, values
access, and reconstruction
- run Primitive and Decimal through one take pipeline, including index
normalization, null handling, validity propagation, piecewise ranges,
and record dispatch
- retain the direct spare-capacity copy used by the previous Primitive
piecewise kernel, now over shared byte records
- run both through one filter pipeline for values and validity
- retain AVX2 gathers for 4- and 8-byte records; share scalar paths for
1, 2, 16, 32, and uncommon widths
- preserve their public APIs, distinct VTables/array IDs, and serialized
layouts

-/// Takes the specified indices into a new [`Buffer`] using AVX2 SIMD.
-///
-/// An AVX2 gather only moves raw bytes, so signedness and float-ness are irrelevant — only the
-/// byte width of `V` matters. Any 4-byte value rides the gather through the `u32` lane and any
-/// 8-byte value through the `u64` lane, regardless of its actual type. Values 1 or 2 bytes wide
-/// (AVX2 has no sub-32-bit gather) and wider than 8 bytes (`i128`, decimals) fall back to the
-/// scalar kernel.
-///
-/// The gather copies the bytes of an existing `V` without changing them. Invalid lanes write zero
-/// into uninitialized output memory, but that memory is never exposed because the function panics
-/// before setting the output length.
-///
-/// # Panics
-///
-/// This function panics if any of the provided `indices` are out of bounds for `values`.
-///
-/// # Safety
-///
-/// The caller must ensure the `avx2` feature is enabled. Four- and eight-byte `V` types must not
-/// contain uninitialized padding because the gather reads their entire object representation as an
-/// integer lane. The production caller only supplies [`NativePType`] values, which satisfy this.

Subject: [PATCH 209/498] Remove the unimplemented `NotKernel` extension point
 (#9214)

Removes `NotKernel` and `NotExecuteAdaptor`, which have no implementors
anywhere in the workspace. `BooleanKernel` has two and `CompareKernel`
has fourteen, so an encoding that has something to contribute does
implement the corresponding trait. `not` never grew one.

`NotReduce` and `NotReduceAdaptor` stay in the same file. The constant
encoding implements the first and registers the second, so the
metadata-only half of the extension point is live.

Removing the buffer-reading half is a statement that `not` has no
encoding-aware execution today, not that it cannot have one. Restoring
the trait is a revert of this commit if an encoding needs it.

Subject: [PATCH 212/498] Vectorize checked multiplication by reporting
 evidence, not a comparison (#9210)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Replaces the per-lane overflow comparison in checked multiplication with
the bits the narrow product discards. An unsigned checked multiply
widens both operands, multiplies, and compares the product against the
narrow maximum, and LLVM canonicalizes that into
`llvm.umul.with.overflow`, which has no vector lowering. Eight spellings
of the check compile to the same scalar code. The lane now returns the
discarded half of the true product, which is non-zero on exactly the
lanes that overflow, and `map_checked_into` OR-reduces it. Overflow
detection is unchanged for every input.

The narrow signed widths keep their two-sided range check, which LLVM
does not fold, so they measure neutral below. `map_checked_into` asserts
that the evidence is no wider than the value, because a wider word puts
the reduction rather than the arithmetic in charge of how many lanes a
vector covers. The three kernel wrappers also relax from
`#[inline(always)]` to `#[inline]`, which measures the same.

Open question: do the 64-bit widths need `u64` evidence rather than
`bool`? There is no vector integer multiply at 64-bit width below
AVX-512DQ, so the width is possibly not load-bearing on the CodSpeed
runner.

Follow-up: prove from cached `Stat::Min` and `Stat::Max` that a multiply
cannot overflow and skip the check entirely, the way `values_fit_in`
already does for narrowing casts in `cast.rs`. Against a build with the
check compiled out, that is worth a further 1.9x at `u8` and nothing at
`u32`.

<details>
<summary>Benchmark results</summary>

`binary_ops`, 65536 rows, divan fastest of 100 samples, interleaved A/B
over two rounds against `develop` on an Apple M4 Max. `add_i64_nonnull`,
`div_i64_nonnull` and `eq_i64_constant` are controls over untouched
code.

| benchmark | before | after | |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `mul_u8_nonnull` | 10.74 µs | 1.332 µs | 8.1x |
| `mul_u16_nonnull` | 11.58 µs | 1.707 µs | 6.8x |
| `mul_u32_nonnull` | 12.29 µs | 3.457 µs | 3.6x |
| `mul_u64_nonnull` | 12.41 µs | 6.999 µs | 1.8x |
| `mul_i64_nonnull` | 13.20 µs | 8.082 µs | 1.6x |
| `mul_i8_nonnull` | 1.457 µs | 1.457 µs | neutral |
| `mul_i16_nonnull` | 2.624 µs | 2.624 µs | neutral |
| `mul_i32_nonnull` | 3.957 µs | 3.999 µs | neutral |
| `mul_i32_nullable` | 4.540 µs | 4.540 µs | neutral |
| `mul_i32_constant` | 3.915 µs | 3.957 µs | neutral |
| `add_i64_nonnull` | 6.791 µs | 6.832 µs | control |
| `div_i64_nonnull` | 18.79 µs | 17.54 µs | control |
| `eq_i64_constant` | 3.582 µs | 3.582 µs | control |

`mul.with.overflow` falls from 20 occurrences to 4 across the checked
kernels, and OR reductions appear at `v16i8`, `v8i16` and `v4i32`, each
the width of its own operand. The remaining 4 are the scalar
constant-folding path.

CodSpeed runs on x86, where the 64-bit rows are expected to differ from
the aarch64 numbers above.

Subject: [PATCH 214/498] Use RowIdxLayoutReader only when #row_idx is
 referenced (#9190)

Currently we wrap layout readers with RowIdxLayoutReader even if it's
not used.
This increases CPU usage on requests that don't use it (i.e.
clickbench).
The cost of recursive expression iteration is lower than runtime of
RowIdxLayoutReader so it's a net benefit.

Subject: [PATCH 215/498] test(spark): characterize VortexScanBuilder predicate
 pushdown splitting (#8857)

## Rationale for this change

`VortexScanBuilder`
(`java/vortex-spark/src/main/java/dev/vortex/spark/read/VortexScanBuilder.java`)
decides which Spark V2 predicates are pushed into the Vortex scan and
which are returned
to Spark for post-scan evaluation, and it currently has no direct test
coverage. The
split logic encodes correctness-critical rules: predicates referencing
partition columns
must *not* be pushed (partition values live in directory paths, not
inside the Vortex
files), untranslatable operators must be returned to Spark, and
`pushedPredicates()`
must not expose internal state. A regression in any of these silently
drops filters or
scans the wrong data. This continues the characterization-test series
from #8770,
#8782, #8783, and #8850.

## What changes are included in this PR?

A new `VortexScanBuilderTest` with 9 tests covering:

- **`pushPredicates` on data columns**: a supported predicate on a data
column is pushed
and removed from the post-scan set; predicates referencing columns
absent from the
read schema, or using operators `SparkPredicateToVortexExpression`
cannot translate
(e.g. a raw `LIKE`), are returned to Spark and never recorded as pushed.
- **`pushPredicates` on partition columns**: a predicate on an
identity-partitioned
column is left to Spark; mixed batches split correctly (data-column
predicate pushed,
partition-column predicate post-scan); an `And` spanning a data column
and a partition
  column is kept whole on the Spark side.
- **`pushedPredicates`**: empty before any push, and returns a defensive
copy so callers
  cannot mutate the builder's internal state.
- **`build`**: fails fast with `IllegalStateException` when no paths
were added.

This is a **test-only** change; no production code is modified. All
tests pass locally
on both matrix legs (`:vortex-spark_2.12:test` and
`:vortex-spark_2.13:test` with
`--tests 'dev.vortex.spark.read.VortexScanBuilderTest'`).

## What APIs are changed? Are there any user-facing changes?

None. No production code or public API is touched.

Subject: [PATCH 216/498] Fix .take() overflow on VarBin with >4GB data (#9227)

Varbin's take errors if array contains more than 4GB of data as offsets
overflow 32 bits. Fix this by dynamically extending offsets to 64 bits
if we encounter a large offset value.

Resolves: #4302

Subject: [PATCH 217/498] refactor: support formatting of bound expressions
 (#9228)

## What

- add an `ExprDisplay` interface shared by `Expression` and
`BoundExpression`
- add `ScalarFnVTable::fmt_sql_display` and migrate built-in formatters
to it
- format bound expressions directly instead of rebuilding an unbound
tree

## Why

Bound-expression consumers need compact SQL-style formatting without
calling `unbind()`. Keeping the existing `fmt_sql(&Expression, ...)`
method avoids a source-breaking signature change for external
scalar-function vtables.

Subject: [PATCH 219/498] Optimize split calculation in DF source (#9167)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

## Rationale for this change

When DataFusion splits a Vortex file into byte ranges, every partition
open recomputed the file's natural splits and linearly scanned them to
translate its byte range into row boundaries — identical work repeated N
times per file, with the layout walks contending on lazily-initialized
layout children.

Now the splits are computed once per file (for only the fields the scan
references), cached with precomputed assignment bytes so the translation
is a binary search, and handed back to the `ScanBuilder` so
per-partition `prepare()` skips its layout walk entirely.

## What changes are included in this PR?

- `vortex-datafusion`: per-file `NaturalSplits` cache (boundaries +
sorted assignment bytes), computed under the `DashMap` entry so
concurrent partitions wait for the winner instead of racing the walk.
- `vortex-layout`: new `ScanBuilder::full_file_splits()` /
`with_natural_splits()`; `Splits::Natural` now holds `Arc<[u64]>`. Fixed
`RepeatedScan::execute` emitting an empty leading split when the row
range starts on a natural boundary (the common case for translated
ranges).
- Tests for assignment-byte collisions, supplied splits skipping the
layout walk, and row-range clamping; full `vortex-layout` and
`vortex-datafusion` suites pass.

## What APIs are changed? Are there any user-facing changes?

New public `ScanBuilder::full_file_splits()` and
`with_natural_splits()`. `Splits::Natural`'s type change is in a private
module. No user-facing behavior changes.

Subject: [PATCH 221/498] Optimize ChunkedArray take routing (#9224)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

## Summary

- replace global comparison sorting in `ChunkedArray::take` with
per-chunk index buckets
- route monotonic indices with a linear chunk cursor and arbitrary
indices with binary search over chunk offsets
- preserve original ordering, nulls, duplicates, nested dtypes, and
bounds behavior
- skip the final reorder take when non-nullable indices are already
monotonic
- add a deterministic 32-case Divan benchmark covering ordering, chunk
counts, duplicate density, nullability, nested values, and routing
patterns

## Why

The previous implementation sorted every valid `(global_index,
original_position)` pair, then filtered each touched chunk before taking
again to restore order. That made chunk routing approximately `O(M log M
+ C)`. Bucketing removes the global comparison sort: arbitrary routing
is approximately `O(M log C + C)`, while monotonic routing is `O(M +
C)`.

## Benchmarks

Command, run sequentially against the original implementation and this
branch:

```bash
CARGO_INCREMENTAL=0 cargo bench -p vortex-array --bench take_chunked -- --sample-count 100
```

Source length was 1,048,576 rows. Nested cases used `RecursiveCanonical`
so child values were fully materialized. Values below are medians from
100 Divan samples. All 32 candidate medians improved.

-//! Fast implementations of the `FastLanes` 1024-bit transpose.
-//!
-//! The `FastLanes` transpose is a fixed permutation of 1024 bits (128 bytes) that
-//! enables SIMD parallelism for encodings like delta and RLE. This module provides
-//! optimized implementations for different x86 SIMD instruction sets.
-//!
-//! The key insight is that each output byte is formed by extracting the SAME bit
-//! position from 8 different input bytes at stride 16. The input byte groups follow
-//! the `FL_ORDER` permutation pattern.

Subject: [PATCH 223/498] feat: add OpenDAL-backed GooseFS object store support
 (#9134)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Add `goosefs://` scheme support to `vortex-cloud`, bridging Tencent
Cloud GooseFS through OpenDAL's `services::GooseFs` via
`object_store_opendal`.

Rust changes:
- `vortex-cloud`: new `goosefs` Cargo feature and `opendal::goosefs`
module with `GoosefsConfig`, `make_goosefs_store`, and URL-to-config
translation (master_addr from properties -> URL authority ->
GOOSEFS_MASTER_ADDR env)
- `vortex-cloud/src/registry`: extend OpenDAL cfg gates to include
`goosefs`
- 7 unit tests covering missing master_addr, URL authority, env
fallback, property override, HA mode, and explicit config construction

Python bindings:
- `vortex-python`: new `GoosefsStore` pyclass with keyword-only options
(root, block_size, chunk_size, write_type, auth_type, auth_username)
- `AnyVortexStore` accepts `GoosefsStore` in `read_url` / `write`
- Python store module `vortex.store._goosefs` with graceful ImportError
fallback when the `opendal` feature is not enabled
- Type stub (`.pyi`) for `GoosefsStore` constructor

Dependency note: goosefs-sdk v0.1.8 is pulled transitively via
opendal-service-goosefs v0.57.0; no direct workspace dependency added.

## Rationale for this change

<!-- Reference any issues this PR closes with `Closes #XXX` syntax. -->
- Closes #9133

## What changes are included in this PR?
This PR introduces a new OpenDAL-backed object store scheme in
`vortex-cloud`:

- New Cargo feature `goosefs` (gated under the existing `opendal`
umbrella).
- New module `vortex-cloud/src/opendal/goosefs.rs` (~300 lines)
containing:
- `GoosefsConfig` struct (master_addr, root, block_size, chunk_size,
write_type, auth_type, auth_username).
- `make_goosefs_store(config)` — strongly-typed entry point returning
`Arc<dyn ObjectStore>`.
- `url_and_properties_to_config(url, properties, env_lookup)` —
translates a `goosefs://` URL plus a property map into a
`GoosefsConfig`, with `master_addr` resolved as
`properties["master_addr"]` → URL authority (`host:port`) →
`GOOSEFS_MASTER_ADDR` env var.
- 7 unit tests covering missing master_addr, URL-authority fallback, env
fallback, property-vs-URL precedence, HA mode, and explicit config
construction.
- Wiring in `vortex-cloud/src/opendal/mod.rs`:
- New `mod goosefs;`, `pub use ... GOOSEFS_SCHEME / GoosefsConfig /
make_goosefs_store`.
- `SUPPORTED_SCHEMES` and `make_opendal_store_with_env` match arm
extended to dispatch on `goosefs://`.
- `property_or_env`, `warn_on_unknown_properties`, `build_operator` cfg
gates updated.
- `supports_scheme_tracks_enabled_features` and
`every_supported_scheme_dispatches` tests extended to cover the new
scheme.
- Wiring in `vortex-cloud/src/registry/mod.rs`:
- `EnvSource::lookup` and `Registry::build_store` cfg gates updated so
the registry can resolve `goosefs://` URLs.
  - Module-level doc comment updated to mention GooseFS.
- `vortex-cloud/src/lib.rs` doc comment + `opendal` feature list
updated.
- Python bindings in `vortex-python`:
- New `GoosefsStore` pyclass in `vortex-python/src/opendal_store.rs`
with the same keyword-only options as `GoosefsConfig`.
- `AnyVortexStore` enum extended with a `Goosefs(GoosefsStore)` variant,
with matching `into_inner` and `FromPyObject` arms.
- New `vortex-python/python/vortex/store/_goosefs.py` mirroring
`_cos.py` (graceful `ImportError` placeholder when the `opendal` feature
is disabled).
- `vortex-python/python/vortex/store/__init__.py` updated: import
`GoosefsStore`, add to `ObjectStore` type alias, add to `__all__`,
document `goosefs://` URL handling in the `from_url` docstring.
- `vortex-python/python/vortex/_lib/__init__.pyi` updated with the
`GoosefsStore` class stub.

Dependency notes:

- `goosefs-sdk` is **not** added as a direct workspace dependency. It is
pulled transitively through `opendal-service-goosefs v0.57.0`, which
currently uses `goosefs-sdk v0.1.8`. Adding a direct dependency would
force an extra upgrade every time the OpenDAL facade bumps.
- The PR targets `develop` with `opendal = "0.57.0"` and `object_store =
"0.13.2"` (compatible with `datafusion 54`).
- A separate branch is in progress to bump `opendal` to `0.58.1`; it
depends on `datafusion` moving to `object_store 0.14` and is
intentionally not folded into this PR.


## What APIs are changed? Are there any user-facing changes?

Yes — this PR adds new public APIs and a new URL scheme. It does **not**
modify or break any existing public API.

### New public Rust API (gated on the new `goosefs` feature)

In `vortex-cloud::opendal`:

- `pub const GOOSEFS_SCHEME: &str = "goosefs";`
- `pub struct GoosefsConfig { pub master_addr: String, pub root:
Option<String>, pub block_size: Option<u64>, pub chunk_size:
Option<u64>, pub write_type: Option<String>, pub auth_type:
Option<String>, pub auth_username: Option<String> }`
- `pub fn make_goosefs_store(config: GoosefsConfig) -> Result<Arc<dyn
object_store::ObjectStore>, OpenDALStoreError>`

The existing `make_opendal_store_with_env` URL dispatcher now also
accepts the `goosefs` scheme, returning a store rooted at the URL path.
`supports_scheme("goosefs")` returns `true` when the `goosefs` feature
is enabled (and the corresponding Cargo features are turned on via the
`opendal` umbrella).

### New public Cargo features

- `vortex-cloud/goosefs` — opt-in. When enabled, `opendal`,
`object_store_opendal`, `tracing`, and `opendal/services-goosefs` are
pulled in.
- `vortex-cloud/opendal` now also enables the new `goosefs` feature
(alongside the existing `cos` and `oss`).

### New Python API (gated on the `opendal` feature)

In `vortex._lib`:

- `class GoosefsStore(master_addr: str, *, root: str | None = None,
block_size: int | None = None, chunk_size: int | None = None,
write_type: str | None = None, auth_type: str | None = None,
auth_username: str | None = None)` — a `pyo3`-backed store class.

In `vortex.store`:

- `GoosefsStore` re-exported with the same constructor signature.
- `vortex.store.ObjectStore` union type extended to include
`GoosefsStore`.
- `vortex.store.from_url(...)` recognises
`goosefs://master-addr:port/path` URLs (when the `opendal` feature is
enabled).
- `vortex.io.read_url(url, store=...)` and `vortex.io.write(...,
store=...)` accept a `GoosefsStore` instance.

### New environment variable

- `GOOSEFS_MASTER_ADDR` — read by
`GoosefsConfig::from_properties_auto()` (the OpenDAL builder) and by
`vortex-cloud`'s `url_and_properties_to_config` as the final fallback
for `master_addr` when the URL has no authority and the property map is
empty.

### Backwards compatibility

- All existing public APIs are unchanged. Existing features (`cos`,
`oss`, `registry`, etc.) are unaffected.
- The new `goosefs` feature is opt-in; existing consumers that don't
enable it will see no new code or dependencies pulled in.
- The new `goosefs` scheme is recognised by
`vortex-cloud/src/registry::Registry` only when the `goosefs` feature is
enabled, so existing deployments won't accidentally treat `goosefs://`
URLs as a different scheme.

Subject: [PATCH 224/498] Validate row-index selections (#8574)

## Rational for this change

We binary search the row selections and therefore panic if they are out
of order. Therefore we should validate them on-construction to be sorted

## What changes are included in this PR?

Include/ExcludeByIndex has try_new constructors.

An alternative would be to have a SortedBuffer<T> wrapper type perhaps?

## What APIs are changed? Are there any user-facing changes?

Include/ExcludeByIndex

Subject: [PATCH 225/498] duckdb: convert aggregate results to duckdb requested
 output type (#9231)

Duckdb widens output aggregation results to avoid overflow. This means
output column may be i128 even if input scalars are not. Our
reference_value
doesn't cast duckdb Value to desired type but reinterprets bits which
lead
to undefined behaviour.

Subject: [PATCH 226/498] FFI: get scalars from arrays (#8896)

- Add vx_array_get_scalar method for retrieving vx_scalar.
- Add scalar's primitive, utf8, bool, and binary getters generated from
a macro.
- Replace decimal scalar creation functions with a macro.
- Remove vx_array's primitive getters in favor of obtaining a vx_scarar.

Subject: [PATCH 227/498] Fix decimal scalar multiplication and division
 (#8888)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Decimal scalar `Mul` and `Div` produced values at the wrong scale. They
applied the operator to the raw stored integers and kept the operands'
dtype, so at `decimal(10, 2)` `0.50 * 0.10` came back as `5.00` and
`10.00 / 0.10` as `1.00`. `3000.00 * 3000.00` reported a false overflow
even though `9000000.00` fits precision 10.

`DecimalScalar::checked_binary_numeric` now follows Arrow's decimal
arithmetic rules, which are already used by Decimal Add/Sub array
kernels from #8724. Vortex coerces both operands to a single dtype, so
Arrow's general `(p1, s1) op (p2, s2)` formulas collapse to:

| operator | result precision | result scale |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Add, Sub | `p + 1` | `s` |
| Mul | `2p + 1` | `2s` |
| Div | `p + s + 4` | `s + 4` |

Precision saturates at `MAX_PRECISION`. Mul is exact — the doubled scale
leaves the raw product correctly scaled, so there is no rounding
decision to make — while Div scales the dividend by `10^result_scale`
and truncates toward zero.

Because the result widens, the operation can no longer return a
`DecimalScalar<'a>`: that borrows its `&'a DType` from an operand and
has nowhere to put a wider type. It now returns
`VortexResult<Option<Scalar>>`, where `Ok(None)` is overflow or division
by zero. Mismatched operand dtypes became an error rather than a panic.

Add's result now carries `p + 1`, so `stats_set::merge_sum` and the sum
test helper restate the merged sum in the summands' own decimal type and
treat a value that no longer fits as overflow, preserving current
behavior. That also removes a latent panic in `merge_sum` when a merged
sum is null.

Div is the one operator whose intermediate can outgrow the widest native
width: scaling the dividend by `10^result_scale` overflows `i256` once
`p + result_scale` passes `MAX_PRECISION`, even for a quotient that
would have fit the result precision. That is reported as an overflow and
pinned by a test. The array kernels size their working width the same
way, so both paths agree on which operations are representable.

Subject: [PATCH 228/498] `Decimal` Mul/Div kernels (#9221)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Adds native `Mul` and `Div` execution for decimal arrays, completing the
operator set that #8724 started with Add/Sub.

| operator | result precision | result scale |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Add, Sub | `p + 1` | `s` |
| Mul | `2p + 1` | `2s` |
| Div | `p + s + 4` | `s + 4` |

### Execution

Lanes run at a working width from `decimal_numeric_work_dtype`, then
narrow to the result's own storage width. The two widths are not always
the same: Mul's intermediate is the result itself, but Div scales the
dividend by `10^result_scale` before dividing and so needs room for `p +
|result_scale|` digits. A negative result scale scales the divisor
instead.

`DecimalOpConstants<W>` hoists the per-execution constants — the
result-precision bounds and the two division scale factors — out of the
lane loop.

Every lane is checked at the working width. `DecimalArray` does not
validate its stored values against the declared precision, so an
out-of-precision value can reach a kernel and must not be able to
overflow it; `test_decimal_value_outside_working_width_errors` has
depended on that behaviour since #8724. Overflowing the result precision
on a valid lane is an error, as is division by zero; invalid lanes never
error.

Subject: [PATCH 229/498] duckdb: Restrict pushed aggregations (#9233)

- Forbid aggregation of Decimal sum/mean: different overflow semantics
- Allow pushdown of aggregations over scalars i.e. min(strlen(x)).
  Forbid pushdown of aggregations over non-allowed types i.e.
  sum(strlen(x))
- Forbid min/max of String and List since we don't have an
implementation
  for that

Subject: [PATCH 231/498] Push hugging face storage resolution into
 vortex-cloud rather than vortex-python (#9199)

We should treat hf:// urls as any other object store, right now we are
keeping all of it in vortex-python which is not quite as versatile as
having a full fledged object store.

fixes #5379

+==================
+Hugging Face Hub
+==================
+
+Vortex reads Hugging Face Hub repositories over ``hf://`` URLs. A Hub repository is a set of files
+behind an HTTP endpoint that honours range requests, so no cloud SDK is involved and no extra build
+feature is needed.
+
+.. list-table::
+   :header-rows: 1
+
+   * - URL
+     - Repository kind
+   * - ``hf://datasets/<owner>/<name>[@<revision>][/<path>]``
+     - Dataset
+   * - ``hf://spaces/<owner>/<name>[@<revision>][/<path>]``
+     - Space
+   * - ``hf://<owner>/<name>[@<revision>][/<path>]``
+     - Model
+
+``<revision>`` is a branch, tag or commit, defaulting to ``main``. A revision containing ``/`` must
+be percent-encoded, e.g. ``hf://datasets/org/name@refs%2Fconvert%2Fparquet/data/train.vortex``.
+
+Configuration comes from the same environment variables ``huggingface_hub`` reads:
+
+.. list-table::
+   :header-rows: 1
+
+   * - Variable
+     - Meaning
+   * - ``HF_TOKEN``
+     - API token for private and gated repositories. Falls back to the token file at
+       ``HF_TOKEN_PATH``, then ``$HF_HOME/token``, then ``$HOME/.cache/huggingface/token``.
+   * - ``HF_ENDPOINT``
+     - Hub endpoint, defaulting to ``https://huggingface.co``.
+
+Reading from the Hub
+====================
+
+Pass an ``hf://`` URL directly. Public repositories need no credentials; private and gated ones
+authenticate from ``HF_TOKEN`` or the saved login:
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+   import vortex as vx
+
+   vxf = vx.open("hf://datasets/org/name/data/train.vortex")
+   for batch in vxf.to_arrow():
+       ...
+
+:class:`vortex.store.HfStore`
+=============================
+
+.. py:class:: vortex.store.HfStore(repo_id, *, repo_type="dataset", revision=None, token=None, endpoint=None)
+
+   A Hugging Face Hub object store, rooted at one repository and revision.
+
+   A URL is enough for most reads, so reach for this class only for the two things a URL cannot
+   express: a token held in a variable rather than the environment, and a read that must stay
+   anonymous even though the environment offers credentials.
+
+   Because the store is rooted at the repository and revision, the path passed alongside it is a
+   path *within* the repository.
+
+   :param repo_id: The repository, as ``"<owner>/<name>"``.
+   :param repo_type: ``"dataset"``, ``"model"`` or ``"space"``. Defaults to ``"dataset"``.
+   :param revision: A branch, tag or commit. Defaults to ``main``. Unlike in a URL, a revision
+       containing ``/`` is passed literally — the store percent-encodes it.
+   :param token: ``None`` (the default) or ``True`` authenticates from ``HF_TOKEN`` or the saved
+       login; ``False`` forces an anonymous read even when credentials are available; a string is
+       used as the token directly.
+   :param endpoint: Hub endpoint. Defaults to ``HF_ENDPOINT``, then ``https://huggingface.co``.
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+   import vortex as vx
+   from vortex.store import HfStore
+
+   store = HfStore("org/name", revision="refs/convert/parquet", token="hf_...")
+
+   # With `store=`, the path is a path within the repository.
+   vxf = vx.open("data/train.vortex", store=store)
+
+Listing
+=======
+
+The Hub does not implement WebDAV ``PROPFIND``, which is how object-store HTTP listing works, so a
+Hub store cannot list a prefix. Opening a known path works, since that is a ``HEAD`` plus ranged
+``GET``. To expand a glob, list the repository through the Hub's own API first — which is what
+``vortex.datasets.load_dataset`` does — and then open each path it returns.
+
+Hugging Face Datasets
+=====================
+
+``vortex.datasets.load_dataset`` builds on this to load Vortex files from the Hub as Hugging Face
+``Datasets`` objects, expanding globs and pushing projections, filters and row limits into each
+scan. See :doc:`../datasets`.

Subject: [PATCH 232/498] refactor: preserve bound expression identity through
 scans (#9192)

## Summary

- require scan-builder projection and filter setters to take
`BoundExpression`
- optimize and bind scan expressions once at the source boundary,
preserving the exact bound tree through pruning and partition scans
- rewrite statistics expressions and conjunct comparisons directly on
bound trees instead of unbinding and rebinding them
- defer multi-layout filter-binding failures to partition execution so
scan construction keeps its existing error timing

## Why

Rebinding a structurally identical expression creates a new exact tree
identity and defeats identity-keyed caches. Keeping one bound tree
through scan planning and execution makes exact caching reliable.

## Break

Use `Expression::bind(dtype)` before passing a projection or filter to a
scan plan.

Subject: [PATCH 233/498] take() on VarBin returns VarBinView (#9229)

take() on VarBin returned a VarBin which was slow because referenced
bytes were
copied. However, FSST version requires this. Make take() return
VarBinView but
keep the old version for FSST.

Add a take benchmark for VarBin

Resolves: #4964

Subject: [PATCH 235/498] Improve agents related toolings/docs (#9264)

## Rationale for this change

1. Remove the PR review skill, all agents have this functionality these
days.
2. Minimize the top level `AGENTS.md`, point to other more specific ones
3. Move benchmark guidelines to `STYLE.md`
4. Create AGENTS.md files for `vortex-python` and `docs/`, hopefully
making the process around them clearer and better documented.

-# Vortex PR Review Skill
-
-Review Vortex changes for issues that CI may miss: semantic correctness, Rust soundness,
-zero-copy and alignment invariants, performance, API compatibility, and missing regression
-coverage.
-
-## Usage Modes
-
-### GitHub Actions Mode
-
-When invoked by a PR automation, the prompt may already include PR metadata, issue body,
-comments, and changed files. In this mode, use git commands for the diff and history:
-
-```bash
-git diff origin/<base-branch>...HEAD
-git diff --stat origin/<base-branch>...HEAD
-git log origin/<base-branch>..HEAD --oneline
-```
-
-If the base ref is missing, fetch only that ref:
-
-```bash
-git fetch origin <base-branch> --depth=1

-Do not refetch data already provided in the prompt. Use the supplied comments and metadata as

-
-### Local CLI Mode
-
-When the user provides a PR number or URL, use `gh` to fetch the PR metadata, comments, and diff:
-
-```bash
-gh pr view <PR_NUMBER> --json title,body,author,baseRefName,headRefName,files,additions,deletions,commits
-gh pr view <PR_NUMBER> --json comments,reviews
-gh pr diff <PR_NUMBER>
-```
-
-If `gh` cannot connect to `api.github.com` because of sandbox networking, rerun with escalated
-network permissions.
-
-## Review Workflow
-
-1. Read `AGENTS.md` and any nested `AGENTS.md` for project conventions.
-2. Identify the change intent from the PR title, body, commits, and tests.
-3. Group changed files by area: arrays, encodings, buffers, file/layout, integrations, bindings,
-   docs, or CI.
-4. Trace changed behavior through callers, trait implementations, dtype/nullability handling,
-   validity masks, and tests.
-5. Focus findings on actionable defects. Avoid commenting on formatting or issues already covered
-   by clippy, rustfmt, or generated API checks.
-6. Scope verification to the change. Rust/API changes need Rust checks; docs-only, agent-only,
-   symlink-only, and metadata-only changes should use targeted validation such as Markdown review,
-   `ls`, `find`, `git status`, or relevant config linters.

-| Tests              | Regression coverage, edge cases, parameterized cases with `rstest`, use of `assert_arrays_eq!`, docs doctests when docs change                       |
-| Verification scope | Avoid requesting or running expensive workspace checks when the PR only changes docs, agent files, symlinks, or metadata                             |

-## Output
-
-Lead with findings, ordered by severity. For each finding include:
-
-- File and line reference.
-- Why the issue is a real bug or material risk.
-- A concrete fix or verification path when possible.
-
-Use inline review comments when the environment supports them and a precise changed line is the
-best place for the feedback. Keep broad design feedback in the summary.
-
-If no issues are found, say so explicitly and mention any residual risk or tests not run.
-
-## Principles
-
-- Review the code that changed, but inspect enough surrounding code to validate invariants.
-- Do not infer causation from commit messages alone. Verify with code, tests, or logs.
-- Do not ask for broad rewrites when a narrow fix would address the risk.
-- Do not downgrade a correctness or soundness issue to a nit because it is inconvenient.
-- Be specific and proportionate.

-## Performance: avoid hidden-cost accessors in hot loops
-
-The most common performance trap in this codebase is calling a *per-element accessor that
-hides non-trivial work* inside an `O(n)` loop, instead of doing the work once over the whole
-chunk. The call site looks like a cheap getter, but each call re-pays a cost that is constant
-(or amortizable) across the loop, making the loop `O(n · k)`.
-
-Watch for these accessors used inside `for i in 0..n { ... }`:
-
-| Per-element accessor (in a loop) | Hidden cost | Bulk replacement |
-| --- | --- | --- |
-| `Validity::is_valid(i)` / `is_null(i)` | for array-backed validity, **allocates an `ExecutionCtx` and runs a scalar lookup per call** | `validity.execute_mask(len, ctx)?` once, then `Mask::value(i)` |
-| `array.scalar_at(i)` / `array.execute_scalar(i, ctx)` | per-element execution through the compute stack | canonicalize once (`execute::<PrimitiveArray>` / `as_slice`) then index |
-| `BitBuffer::value(i)` / `Mask::value(i)` accumulated into a count | recomputes the byte address each call; defeats popcount | `true_count()`, `BitBuffer::count_range(start, end)`, `set_indices()` |
-| `BitIterator::next()` to accumulate a running rank/prefix count | bit-at-a-time | `count_range` over each gap (SIMD popcount) |
-| re-deriving a value inside the loop (e.g. `self.validity()?` each iteration) | re-runs the derivation `n` times | hoist it above the loop |
-
-Decide per site — bulk is not always the answer:
-
-- **Sequential / contiguous access** over an accessor that hides amortizable work → hoist and
-  go bulk (materialize once, then index or iterate the chunk).
-- **Gather over arbitrary indices** → you cannot amortize a per-element *decode*, but you can
-  still materialize the backing buffer once (e.g. `execute_mask`) and then do cheap `O(1)`
-  random reads, avoiding per-call context/allocation.
-- **The accessor is already genuinely `O(1)`** (e.g. reading an already-materialized `Mask`/
-  slice, or a native bitmap) → leave it; bulk would not help.
-
-Even after materializing into a `Mask`/`BitBuffer`, **do not loop with `value(i)` per
-element** to act on each set bit — the per-element branch dominates. Iterate a `u64` word
-at a time with all-set / all-unset fast paths: use [`BitBuffer::for_each_set_index`]. It
-beats `for i in 0..len { if buf.value(i) {..} }` by 2-45x (more at low density) and beats
-collecting `set_indices()` by ~2x at mid/high density, while self-adapting from sparse to
-dense — see `vortex-mask/benches/mask_iteration.rs`. Reach for the cached `indices()` /
-`slices()` representations when you need them more than once; otherwise `for_each_set_index`
-needs no materialization.
-
-When you touch such a loop, back the change with a benchmark (see
-`vortex-array/benches/validity_is_valid.rs` for the `is_valid` case,
-`vortex-mask/benches/valid_counts.rs` for the popcount case, and
-`vortex-mask/benches/mask_iteration.rs` for the per-element-vs-word-vs-sparse comparison).

+The repository uses [`uv`](https://docs.astral.sh/uv/) to manage its Python workspace. From the
+repository root, create or update the development environment with:
+
+```bash
+uv sync --all-packages
+```
+
+### Python bindings
+
+`vortex-data` is a mixed Python and Rust package. `uv` manages its Python environment, and
+[Maturin](https://www.maturin.rs/) compiles the PyO3 code in `vortex-python/src/` into the
+`vortex._lib` extension.
+
+Python-only changes do not require an explicit extension rebuild. Run the affected tests directly:
+
+```bash
+uv run --all-packages pytest <changed-python-tests>
+```
+
+After changing the PyO3 Rust code, `vortex-python/Cargo.toml`, or relevant Cargo features, rebuild
+the extension before testing. For a single build-and-test cycle, ask `uv` to reinstall the local
+package, which invokes its Maturin build backend:
+
+```bash
+uv run --all-packages --reinstall-package vortex-data pytest <changed-python-tests>
+```
+
+For repeated Rust edits, install the extension into the development environment explicitly:
+
+```bash
+(cd vortex-python && uv run maturin develop)
+uv run --all-packages pytest <changed-python-tests>
+```
+
+Rerun `maturin develop` after each Rust change. Pass Cargo features through Maturin when needed:
+
+```bash
+(cd vortex-python && uv run maturin develop --features <feature>)
+```
+
+Use one rebuild path per test cycle. Before handing off broad Python binding changes, run the full
+Python check:
+
+```bash
+./vortex-python/check.sh
+```
+
+This synchronizes the workspace, rebuilds the extension, runs Python formatting, linting, type
+checks and tests, and validates the documentation.
+
+### Documentation
+
+Use `docs/Makefile` as the canonical interface for Sphinx. From the repository root, run the full
+clean build and doctest flow with:
+
+```bash
+uv run --all-packages make -C docs check
+```
+
+For live-reloading development, run:
+
+```bash
+make -C docs serve
+```
+
+Use `make -C docs help` to list focused targets, and finish documentation changes with `check`.

+### Avoid Hidden-Cost Accessors in Hot Loops
+
+Do not call a per-element accessor that hides non-trivial work inside an `O(n)` loop. Each call can
+repay work that is constant or amortizable across the chunk, turning the loop into `O(n * k)`.
+
+Watch for these accessors inside `for i in 0..n { ... }`:
+
+| Per-element accessor | Hidden cost | Bulk replacement |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| `Validity::is_valid(i)` / `is_null(i)` | Array-backed validity allocates an `ExecutionCtx` and runs a scalar lookup per call. | Call `validity.execute_mask(len, ctx)?` once, then read the materialized mask. |
+| `array.scalar_at(i)` / `array.execute_scalar(i, ctx)` | Executes through the compute stack per element. | Canonicalize once with `execute::<PrimitiveArray>` or `as_slice`, then index. |
+| `BitBuffer::value(i)` / `Mask::value(i)` accumulated into a count | Recomputes the byte address and defeats popcount. | Use `true_count()`, `BitBuffer::count_range(start, end)`, or `set_indices()`. |
+| `BitIterator::next()` accumulated into a rank or prefix count | Processes one bit at a time. | Use `count_range` over each gap. |
+| Re-deriving a value such as `self.validity()?` | Repeats the derivation for every element. | Hoist the derivation above the loop. |
+
+Choose the replacement based on the access pattern:
+
+- For sequential or contiguous access, materialize once and iterate or index the chunk.
+- For a gather over arbitrary indices, materialize the backing buffer once, then use cheap random
+  reads. The decode itself may not be amortizable.
+- Leave genuinely `O(1)` accessors alone. Bulk materialization does not help an already materialized
+  mask, slice, or native bitmap.
+
+After materializing a `Mask` or `BitBuffer`, avoid calling `value(i)` for every element merely to act
+on set bits. Use `BitBuffer::for_each_set_index`, which iterates words with all-set and all-unset fast
+paths. Use cached `indices()` or `slices()` representations when they will be reused.
+
+Back changes to these loops with an appropriate benchmark:
+
+- `vortex-array/benches/validity_is_valid.rs` for validity access.
+- `vortex-mask/benches/valid_counts.rs` for popcount.
+- `vortex-mask/benches/mask_iteration.rs` for set-bit iteration.

Subject: [PATCH 236/498] feat: implement take for canonical sparse Union
 arrays (#9246)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

## Rationale for this change

- Progress towards #7882

`take` on a `UnionArray` hit a `todo!()`, both in the parent-reduce path
and in dictionary execution.

## What changes are included in this PR?

Registers `TakeReduce` for `Union`, the naive way: take the type IDs,
take every sparse child, reassemble. Sparse children are row-aligned
with the union, so a gather has to visit all of them and take costs
`O(variants * indices)`. Fixing that needs the dense encoding, which is
still open on the tracking issue.

The nullability split is the part worth reviewing. The type IDs child
carries the union's validity, so it is gathered with the original
`indices` and a null index becomes an outer union null. The children are
gathered with the null indices filled with zero, which keeps each
child's dtype exactly as the variant schema declares it. `Struct` splits
its validity and its fields the same way.

Also adds `UnionArray::constant`, because `take` short-circuits an empty
source into a constant null array before the union ever sees it. That
unblocks two adjacent TODOs: canonicalizing a constant `Union`, and
`UncompressedSizeInBytes` over one.

## Notes

`benches/take_union.rs` lives in the `vortex` crate, which already
depends on both `vortex-array` and `vortex-sparse`, and it compares two
shapes of the same union of `i64`, `utf8`, and `list<i64>`. Rows are
skewed 98% integers to 1% strings and 1% lists, the distribution the
sparse layout exists for. `dense_children` materializes every child at
the union's length. `compressed_children` keeps the dominant integer
child canonical and stores each rare child as a `SparseArray`, which is
what a compressor produces.

Compressed children turn out to be **slower** to take, not faster. 100k
rows, 128 indices:

| | dense children | compressed children |
| --- | --- | --- |
| non-nullable indices | 11.01 µs | 36.61 µs |
| nullable indices | 27.21 µs | 46.32 µs |

The cost is in `Patches::take`. With 1000 patches against 128 indices
the ratio stays above `PREFER_MAP_WHEN_PATCHES_OVER_INDICES_LESS_THAN`,
so every call takes the binary-search path, which is cache-miss bound at
roughly 0.68 µs per index against 0.01 µs for a canonical child. That is
a `Patches` cost rather than a union one. Union take multiplies it by
the variant count.

This does not contradict the layout decision on #7882, which is about
space. It does mean the take path gets no benefit from sparse children
today, so it is worth a follow-up against `Patches::take`.

The two `compressed_children` cases run over the sub-millisecond budget
the other microbenchmarks hold to. The gap only appears once a child's
patch indices outgrow the cache: at 10k rows and 32 indices everything
fits the budget and the gap collapses from 3.3x to 1.35x, which measures
nothing. Landing them over budget is deliberate.

## What APIs are changed? Are there any user-facing changes?

`UnionArray::constant(scalar, len)` is new. Three operations that used
to panic now work: `take` on a union, canonicalizing a constant union,
and `uncompressed_size_in_bytes` on a constant union.

+//! Take on a canonical sparse union of integers, strings, and lists.
+//!
+//! Take gathers every sparse child, not only the one each row selects, so the cost is the sum over
+//! all three variants. That is the price of the sparse layout, and it is also what makes the layout
+//! affordable: Vortex does not require the children of a canonical array to be canonical, so the
+//! inactive slots of a child can be encoded away.
+//!
+//! Rows are skewed: 98% are integers and the strings and lists are 1% each. That skew is the case
+//! the layout is designed for, and it is what makes a rare variant worth encoding sparsely.
+//!
+//! The `dense_children` cases hold every child materialized at the union's length, which is what a
+//! writer produces before compression. The `compressed_children` cases keep the dominant integer
+//! child canonical and store each rare child as a `SparseArray` holding only the rows its variant
+//! selects, which is what a compressor produces.
+//!
+//! The `compressed_children` cases run over the sub-millisecond budget the other microbenchmarks
+//! hold to. What they measure is cache-missing binary searches in `Patches::take`, which only
+//! appears once a child's patch indices outgrow the cache. Shrinking the array to fit the budget
+//! closes the gap between the two shapes to noise and measures nothing.

Subject: [PATCH 238/498] refactor(vortex-geo): generalize scalar function
 execution (#9215)

## Rationale for this change

Native geometry scalar functions need consistent handling for constant
operands, pairwise columns, null propagation, and all-null batches.
Keeping those responsibilities in each function makes new unary and
binary kernels harder to implement correctly.

## What changes are included in this PR?

- Split shared geometry execution into unary, binary, and geo-types
adapter modules.
- Represent constant and column operands explicitly in shared execution
state.
- Centralize strict null propagation and all-null short-circuiting.
- Preserve constant outputs when all operands are constant.
- Migrate Envelope, Contains, Distance, and Intersects to the shared
execution layer.
- Keep bounding-box prechecks scoped to one-constant binary predicate
paths.
- Move native Rect array assembly into the Rect extension module.

## What APIs are changed? Are there any user-facing changes?

This is an internal vortex-geo refactor. Existing scalar function
semantics remain unchanged.

-//! [`execute_null_propagating`] runs a binary geo kernel (`ST_Distance`, `ST_Intersects`,
-//! `ST_Contains`) over its two operands, decoding to `geo_types` and computing per row. Nulls
-//! propagate as in SQL — the result is null wherever either operand is null — which the kernels
-//! also expose via `vortex_array::expr::union_child_validities` as their `validity()`, so the
-//! planner can derive the output null mask without executing them.
+//! [`dispatch_unary`] and the binary dispatcher handle constant/column operands and strict null
+//! propagation without prescribing how a kernel represents geometries or builds its output.
+//! Native columnar kernels such as `ST_Envelope` use the unary dispatcher directly.
 //!
-//! When exactly one operand is a constant, a predicate kernel may pass a [`BboxReject`]
-//! pre-check: the constant's bounding rect is fixed once per batch, and a row whose own rect
-//! already proves the result skips the exact per-row test.
+//! [`execute_binary_geo_types`] adapts row-oriented algorithms from the `geo` ecosystem. It decodes
+//! valid inputs into `geo_types::Geometry`; the final output is still a Vortex [`ArrayRef`], such
+//! as an `f64` or boolean array.

Subject: [PATCH 239/498] Collapse the checked-arithmetic macros into one
 integer body (#9248)

Follow-up to #9210. The four `CheckedArithmetic` macro arms are
near-identical copies of the same ~55-line impl, and only `mul_failure`
varies between them, so that becomes the parameter of one
`impl_checked_integer!`. Both `overflowing_mul` arms existed only to
specialize the 64-bit widths and fold into the general form, and
deriving the shift from `$ty` retires the `const { assert!(<$ty>::BITS
== 64) }` that guarded the hardcoded `>> 64`. Pure refactor, no API
change: the expanded impls differ from the previous ones only by an
alpha-rename of `self` to `lhs`, and the optimized IR of the checked
kernels is identical.

<details>
<summary>Refactor evidence and checks</summary>

Expanded impls compared per type with `cargo +nightly rustc --lib --
-Zunpretty=expanded` at both revisions. Optimized LLVM IR at `-C
target-cpu=x86-64-v3`, comparing every `define` touching the checked
kernels by vector width, reduction count, and overflow intrinsics:

```
102 distinct kernel profiles, identical at both revisions
umul.with.overflow: 309 before, 309 after
smul.with.overflow: 109 before, 109 after
```

```
cargo test -p vortex-array                                  # 3354 passed, 0 failed
cargo clippy -p vortex-array --all-targets --all-features
cargo +nightly fmt -p vortex-array -- --check
```
</details>

From 39fde8c1233fc916cb93b9adeb0156704ec328a1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001

Subject: [PATCH 240/498] VarBinViewBuilder: support appending buffers directly
 into the builder storage (#9235)

throughout string encodings we have a repeated pattern that want to
directly
write values to the varbinview builder without additional copy. This pr
generalizes this functionality

Subject: [PATCH 241/498] Skip materializing splitless chunk children during
 split collection (#9271)

## What changes are included in this PR?

Split collection previously built a full Layout + LayoutReader for every
chunk of every column just so flat chunks could re-register the
chunk-end boundary the parent already knows from its chunk offsets.

- `VTable::registers_interior_splits()` (default true; flat returns
false) lets a layout declare that its readers only ever push the end of
the requested range, forwarded through LayoutVTablePlugin and DynLayout.
- `LayoutChildren::child_has_no_interior_splits(idx)` answers that
without materializing the child: owned children ask the vtable, viewed
children resolve only the flatbuffer encoding tag against the registry,
with a single-slot memo since siblings almost always share one encoding.
- `ChunkedReader` caches a lazy per-chunk classification; when no chunk
has interior splits it bulk-extends boundaries straight from
chunk_offsets.
- `RowSplits` drops consecutive identical ascending runs (columns with
aligned chunk boundaries) and skips the final sort when a single run
survives. StructReader pushes its end boundary after the field walk so
the common case stays one ascending run.
- `LazyReaderChildren::new_uniform` avoids a DType and name clone per
chunk at reader construction.

Split-collection bench medians (64 columns x 256 chunks): cold 916us ->
181us, warm 247us -> 13us; with fully misaligned columns cold 1223us ->
321us, warm 387us -> 146us.

Subject: [PATCH 242/498] VarBinViewBuilder: support decoding Dict and Sparse
 arrays directly into the builder (#9236)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

We can avoid copies if we support scatter and gather operations on
builder which
is essentially what dict and sparse array append_to_builder should be

Subject: [PATCH 243/498] Benchmarks compare against last successful run that
 is reachable from branch (#9277)

## Rationale for this change

Instead of comparing against `develop`, compare benchmark results to the
last successful run that's also reachable from the branch's

Subject: [PATCH 245/498] refactor: rename vortex-geo to vortex-spatial (#9284)

## Rationale

Use spatial consistently for Vortex-owned APIs and identifiers, while
reserving Geo terminology for external standards and crates such as
GeoArrow, GeoParquet, geo-types, and geo-traits.

## What changes are included?

- Rename the crate and Rust module from vortex-geo / vortex_geo to
vortex-spatial / vortex_spatial.
- Rename Vortex extension IDs from vortex.geo.* to vortex.st.*.
- Rename public metadata, scalar-function, pruning, and session APIs to
Spatial* names.
- Update DuckDB, JNI, benchmark, workflow, documentation, comments, and
tests.
- Rename the SpatialBench native lane to vortex-spatial-native and
document the default, native, and three-way benchmark commands.
- Keep GeoArrow, GeoParquet, geo-types, and geo-traits names where they
describe external interfaces.

## User-facing changes

This is a breaking rename for the spatial crate, Rust imports, extension
IDs, and Spatial* APIs. Spatial predicate semantics and storage behavior
are unchanged.

Subject: [PATCH 246/498] perf: allow cross-crate inlining of BitBuffer
 accessors (#9285)

Related: #9259

## Rationale for this change

`Buffer<T>` and `BufferMut<T>` are generic, so their MIR travels in the
rlib and a downstream crate inlines them without LTO. `BitBuffer`,
`BitBufferMut`, `BitBufferView` and `BitBufferMutView` are concrete, so
a method without `#[inline]` reaches a downstream crate as a declaration
only. The thin ones cost a real call per invocation, and the caller
loses the offset and length constants it needs to fold the surrounding
code.

Note that `#[inline]` is not what enables inlining across codegen units
inside a crate. MIR inlining runs before partitioning, and
`profile.bench` sets `lto = false`, which is thin-local LTO rather than
no LTO. Both already inline small functions across a codegen unit
boundary within `vortex-buffer`. The attribute only matters across the
crate boundary, which is where every measurement below was taken.

## What changes are included in this PR?

`#[inline]` on the thin wrappers of those four types: constructors,
iterator factories, and the methods that forward a slice, an offset and
a length. Methods with a body worth outlining keep their current
behavior, including `append_buffer`, whose bitvec fallback path is too
large to justify inlining for the 1.6% it measured.

Marginal instructions per iteration, measured with callgrind against a
probe crate that calls `vortex-buffer` across a crate boundary, built at
the `profile.bench` settings:

| kernel | before | after | fat LTO |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `BitBuffer::slice` | 8972 | 6415 | 5390 |
| `BitBufferView::slice` | 3017 | 2186 | 1994 |

`slice_vortex_buffer` measures 1.904us to 1.829us of wall time, and
stops intermittently landing on a slower 2.12us mode. The wall-clock
gain is much smaller than the instruction-count gain because these paths
are bound by refcount atomics rather than by instruction issue. CodSpeed
measures instruction counts, so expect its numbers to sit closer to the
table than to the wall time.

<details>
<summary>Measurement method, and the parts of the LTO win this does not
reach</summary>

The probe is a separate crate that calls `vortex-buffer` over a real
crate boundary, so the cross-crate path is the one under test. Each
kernel runs at two iteration counts under `valgrind --tool=callgrind`
and the totals are differenced, which cancels process startup, CPU
feature warmup and setup allocations. This matches what CodSpeed's
Simulation mode reports.

`BitBuffer::set_indices` goes 77702 to 69503 at `codegen-units = 1`. At
`codegen-units = 16` the baseline lands on the faster value about half
the time depending on how thin-local LTO's import decisions fall, so the
change makes a previously partition-dependent win reliable rather than
producing a new one.

The remaining fat LTO gap on these benchmarks is not cross-crate
inlining, and `#[inline]` cannot reach it:

- `set_slices` is 1.68x, and it is arrow's `BitSliceIterator`. Ten
`#[inline]` attributes on the `BitSliceIterator` and `UnalignedBitChunk`
chain recover 13729 to 10026 with no LTO. That belongs upstream in
arrow-rs.
- `from_iter` and `bitand_owned` are 1.9x. Nightly
`-Zcross-crate-inline-threshold=always` does not move either one, so no
amount of MIR availability explains them. Fat LTO is partially rescuing
a per-bit read-modify-write loop by unrolling it. The real fix is that
`BitBuffer::from_iter` costs 5.19 instructions per bit while
`BitBufferMut::from(&[bool])` does the same job at 0.19 through the
word-packing kernels in `pack.rs`. Follow-up.
- `value_vortex_buffer` and `value_arrow_buffer` both reported +56.8% on
#9259. The probe measures both at exactly 147467 instructions in every
profile. That row is divan overhead.

Thin LTO was measured as an alternative and rejected: 0 to 2.5% across
these kernels for 2.5x the bench build time.

Subject: [PATCH 247/498] SQL style null-on-empty semantics for Sum and Mean
 (#9113)

This changes the existing `vortex.sum` to use SQL-style null-on-empty
semantics.

## New Sum semantics

| Input | Result |
| --- | --- |
| No rows | `null` |
| All values null | `null` |
| Valid values summing to zero | `0` |
| Integer or decimal overflow | `null` |
| All NaNs with the default `skip_nans` | `0` |
| Any NaN with `include_nans` | `NaN` |

NaNs count as valid values even when skipped, which is why an all-NaN
Sum is zero rather than empty.

## Partial state

Every new Sum partial is:

```text
{
    sum: T,
    is_overflow: bool,
    is_empty: bool,
}
```

The `sum` field is non-nullable. The outer struct is nullable so grouped
or null rows can still be represented. `skip_nans` remains aggregate
configuration and is not part of the partial.

A fresh accumulator begins as:

```text
{ sum: 0, is_overflow: false, is_empty: true }
```

Observing a valid value clears `is_empty`. Empty states are merge
identities, overflow is absorbing, and finalization returns null when
either `is_empty` or `is_overflow` is true.

Grouped Sum kernels produce this same state directly. As a result,
`list_sum` no longer needs a separate empty-list mask: null, empty, and
all-null lists naturally finalize to null.

## Mean

Mean remains a combined `Sum + Count` aggregate and now uses the
canonical Sum state. It still finalizes as `sum / count` and retains its
`count == 0` guard.

- Empty or all-null Mean returns `null`.
- All-NaN Mean with `skip_nans` returns `null` because count is zero.
- An overflowed Sum produces a null Mean.
- Normal input produces `sum / count`.

## Backwards compatibility

Legacy scalar partials are normalized into the canonical struct:

| Incoming partial | Canonical interpretation | Final behavior |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Legacy scalar `x` | `{ sum: x, is_overflow: false, is_empty: false }`
| `x` |
| Legacy scalar `0` | `{ sum: 0, is_overflow: false, is_empty: false }`
| `0` |
| Legacy scalar `null` | `{ sum: 0, is_overflow: true, is_empty: false
}` | `null` |
| New struct partial | Used directly | New semantics |

This preserves zero-on-empty when an old partial appears. The legacy
scalar representation could not distinguish an empty Sum from a genuine
zero, so every legacy zero remains a nonempty zero.

Both scalar and array partials are normalized. Cached scalar `Stat::Sum`
values also pass through this compatibility path.

## Sum options and zone-map deserialization

Sum now uses `SumAggregateOpts { skip_nans, struct_partial }`.
New/default Sum options set and serialize `struct_partial = true`,
selecting the canonical struct partial.

Historical Sum options serialized only `skip_nans`. The new options
decoder is wire-compatible with those bytes and treats a missing
`struct_partial` field as `false`. That selects the legacy nullable
scalar partial dtype when an existing zone map is deserialized.

This is needed because a zoned layout derives its stored stats-table
schema from the deserialized aggregate options. The option therefore
lets old zone maps validate and read their scalar Sum fields, while
newly written zone maps derive the struct Sum field. Legacy scalar
fields are normalized once after reading, and the rest of pruning uses
the canonical representation.

No separate Sum-specific zoned metadata version or schema branch is
needed.

## Forward compatibility

New files store struct Sum partials in zoned stats tables. Readers from
before this change ignore the new protobuf option field, derive the
historical scalar Sum dtype, and reject the struct stats field during
dtype validation.

This is intentional under Vortex's current compatibility contract: new
readers remain able to read older files, but older readers are not yet
guaranteed to read newer files. The zoned metadata version remains
unchanged because `struct_partial` disambiguates the stored schema for
new readers; bumping the version would only make older readers reject
the layout earlier.

Closes #9084.

Subject: [PATCH 249/498] Share primitive binary operand decoding (#9295)

## Rationale for this change

Primitive comparison currently imports `PrimitiveOperand` through
numeric execution. This moves the decoder to the binary module so both
implementations depend on a neutral location.

Just thought it was weird where it is now

Subject: [PATCH 250/498] perf(sequence): build single-match bitmap directly
 (#9262)

## Summary

The sequence equality kernel knows that a match bitmap contains exactly
one set bit, but it currently evaluates a predicate for every row to
build that bitmap. This change allocates an unset `BitBufferMut`, sets
the known match index, and freezes it. The PR stays limited to the
production comparison path after removing unrelated benchmark-harness
edits.

## Testing

- `rustfmt` on `encodings/sequence/src/compute/compare.rs`
- `git diff --check`
- Focused `cargo test -p vortex-sequence --lib --no-default-features
compute::compare::tests` was attempted twice but could not complete
because the shallow checkout needs the uncached `tpchgen` Git
dependency.

## AI assistance

This PR was prepared with agentic AI assistance. I inspected the issue
and surrounding implementation, kept the change scoped to the requested
path, and recorded the local validation limitation above.

Fixes #9092

Subject: [PATCH 263/498] Share tree display traversal and rendering (#9280)

## Summary

- add shared tree traversal and indented/branch renderers in
`vortex-utils`
- migrate array and expression tree displays to the shared
implementation
- preserve existing display output while removing duplicated traversal
code

Subject: [PATCH 266/498] Materialize list offsets once in list_view_from_list
 (#9299)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

## Rationale for this change

`list_view_from_list` executed the lazy offsets that `reset_offsets`
produces inside `build_sizes_from_offsets`, dropped that result, and
then sliced the still-lazy handle into the view, so the subtraction
kernel ran a second time when a consumer canonicalized the offsets
child. Extracted from investigating #9255, where the CodSpeed report
showed ~35% improvements on the `take_filter_list` benchmarks. This fix
alone recovers about half of that locally (12.6µs to 10.1µs median on
`take_filter_list_random_mask_sequential_indices[768, 50]`); the
remainder is the cost of building and executing the lazy subtraction
node at all.

## What changes are included in this PR?

`list_view_from_list` executes the offsets to a `PrimitiveArray` once at
the top, computes `sizes` from that array, and slices it zero-copy for
the view's offsets. `build_sizes_from_offsets` now takes the
materialized offsets instead of executing its own copy. Also adds a
regression test that list-to-listview conversion resets nonzero leading
offsets.

Subject: [PATCH 267/498] Remove data generation code from engine-specific
 bench binaries (#8586)

## Rationale for this change

Part of https://github.com/vortex-data/vortex/issues/9329.

This is a step towards making the benchmark binaries smaller, shifting
as much of the functionality into the python tool

## What changes are included in this PR?

Removes data generation from the engine specific binaries, replacing it
with an informative error.

## What APIs are changed? Are there any user-facing changes?

None

Subject: [PATCH 270/498] feat(vortex-array): execute primitive interleave
 arrays (#9291)

## Summary

- execute Interleave arrays whose values use primitive dtypes
- gather from canonical primitive buffers while preserving constant
value sources
- share selector length and bounds validation with the Boolean kernel
- cover nullable primitive columns, constants, null constants, and
invalid selectors

## Motivation

Interleave previously only had an execution kernel for Boolean values.
This adds the corresponding primitive kernel as a general vortex-array
capability. Spatial MakeLine uses this support in the separate stacked
PR #9201.

Subject: [PATCH 271/498] feat(vortex-spatial): add make-line scalar function
 (#9201)

## Rationale

Vortex native geometry arrays should support constructing two-point
LineStrings directly from paired Point columns without an Arrow or WKB
round trip.

## What changes are included?

- Add vortex.st.make_line for paired native Point arrays.
- Promote mixed XY, XYZ, XYM, and XYZM inputs, filling absent ordinates
with zero.
- Propagate CRS metadata, constants, and endpoint nulls.
- Build native LineString storage directly and add focused tests and
CodSpeed benchmarks.

## Stack

#9291 (primitive Interleave execution) has merged into develop, so this
PR is now standalone: rebased onto develop, it contains only the spatial
function.

ST_Length was split into #9290 so each scalar function can also be
reviewed independently.

Subject: [PATCH 272/498] feat(vortex-spatial): add area scalar function
 (#9203)

## Summary

- add a native `GeoArea` scalar function backed by
`geo::Area::unsigned_area`
- support every native geometry dtype, including zero-area point and
line families and rectangular boxes
- preserve input nullability and propagate null rows through unary
columnar execution
- give every geo scalar function a local operand validator that checks
exact arity before dtype validation
- parameterize repeated Area, Envelope, and MakeLine cases with `rstest`
for clearer per-dtype failures and broader operand-order coverage

## Semantics

This follows DuckDB `ST_Area` semantics over the native Vortex geometry
types: point and line families return zero, polygon holes are
subtracted, multipolygon component areas are summed, rectangles use
width times height, and higher coordinate dimensions are ignored. WKB
remains excluded because it is a storage representation rather than a
native decoded geometry.

Subject: [PATCH 273/498] feat(vortex-spatial): add length scalar function
 (#9290)

## Rationale

Vortex native LineString arrays should support planar length without an
Arrow, WKB, or row-oriented geo_types conversion.

## What changes are included?

- Add vortex.st.length for native LineString inputs.
- Compute every row directly from flattened coordinate buffers and row
offsets.
- Sum all adjacent segments, supporting empty, one-point, and
arbitrary-length LineStrings.
- Preserve constant results and strict null propagation.
- Add focused correctness tests and CodSpeed benchmarks.

## Split

This was split from #9201. It is standalone on develop; #9201 now
contains only ST_MakeLine and primitive Interleave support.

From 11c0a311ae8c23b9695368ca5a5e3490b9534e64 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Adam Gutglick <adam@spiraldb.com>

Subject: [PATCH 277/498] Bump Rust toolchain to 1.95 (#9333)

## Rationale for this change

~The upcoming Apache DataFusion release includes this requirement. This
version is 3 releases behind the latest (as of this writing 1.97.1, with
1.98 being released in about 10 days).~

According to [libs.rs](https://lib.rs/stats), 67% of crates.io requests
for the top 4000 crates use this version or newer.~

Started as an upgrade to 1.94, but realized that we'll need 1.95 for the
full DF 55 upgrade because of geoarrow.

Subject: [PATCH 278/498] test(spark): characterize partition transform
 resolution (#9323)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

## Rationale for this change

`resolveTransforms` turns Spark partition transforms into the directory
keys and column indices a writer uses, and had no tests. It is a pure
static function, so the behaviour is cheap to pin.

## What changes are included in this PR?

Test only. Covers the directory keys derived for identity,
`years`/`months`/`days`/`hours` and `bucket`; the type guards (temporal
transforms reject a non-temporal column, `hours` also rejects a date);
the bucket count and multi-column index resolution; and the rejections
for an unknown transform name, a missing `numBuckets` argument, a
zero-reference transform and a column outside the schema.

Also covers the Java serialization round trip of `ResolvedTransform` —
the reason resolution happens eagerly on the driver, since Spark's
`Transform` objects cannot cross to executors.

Verified non-vacuous: disabling the temporal type guard fails the guard
cases.

- `./gradlew :vortex-spark_2.13:test --tests
'…PartitionedVortexDataWriterTest'` — 11 pass
- same on `:vortex-spark_2.12:test` — 11 pass
- `spotlessCheck` (both variants) and `javadoc` — clean

## What APIs are changed? Are there any user-facing changes?

None.

## AI assistance

Prepared with agentic AI assistance. I read the resolution code and its
callers, confirmed each assertion against the current implementation,
and verified the guard tests fail when the guard is removed.

Subject: [PATCH 279/498] fix(spark): report the written file size in the
 commit message (#9325)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

## Rationale for this change

`bytesWritten` accumulated `FieldVector.getBufferSize()` per batch — the
uncompressed in-memory Arrow size — and handed that to
`VortexWriterCommitMessage`, whose javadoc documents it as "the number
of bytes written". For a compressed file the two differ by the
compression ratio.

The real value was already available: `VortexWriter.finish()` returns a
summary carrying the file's physical size, and `close()` was only
calling `finish()` and discarding the result.

## What changes are included in this PR?

Take the size from `finish().fileSize()` and drop the per-batch
accumulation, which also removes work from the write path.

- `./gradlew :vortex-spark_2.13:test --tests
'…VortexDataSourceWriteTest' --tests '…VortexDataSourceBasicTest'` — 15
pass
- same on `:vortex-spark_2.12:test` — 15 pass
- `spotlessCheck` (both variants) and `javadoc` — clean

No new test: the value only becomes observable through a commit message
a driver collects, which the suite has no fixture for.

## What APIs are changed? Are there any user-facing changes?

None. `VortexWriterCommitMessage.bytesWritten()` now reports the file
size rather than the in-memory size, which is what its javadoc already
promised.

## AI assistance

Prepared with agentic AI assistance. I read the writer's finalization
path and `VortexWriter.finish()` to confirm the summary is produced
there and that `close()` discarded it.

Subject: [PATCH 280/498] fix(spark): correct the CTAS claim on
 VortexSessionCatalog.createTable (#9332)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

## Rationale for this change

The javadoc on `createTable` said Spark writes a `CREATE TABLE ... AS
SELECT` result into the table this overload returns. It does not.
`DelegatingCatalogExtension` sends the `Column[]` overload straight to
the delegate, and that is the overload both supported Spark versions
call — 3.5's `CreateTableAsSelectExec` directly, 4.1's via the
`TableInfo` default. This override never runs; CTAS gets its Vortex
table from the `loadTable` override instead.

Had it run it would have thrown: `V2SessionCatalog.createTable` returns
`null` on its normal path, and `asVortexTableIfVortex` dereferenced the
argument immediately.

## What changes are included in this PR?

Tolerate `null` in `asVortexTableIfVortex`, and replace the javadoc
claim with what actually happens.

- `./gradlew :vortex-spark_2.13:test --tests '…VortexSessionCatalogTest'
--tests '…VortexSqlTest'` — 10 pass
- same on `:vortex-spark_2.12:test`
- `spotlessCheck` (both variants) and `javadoc` — clean

`VortexSessionCatalogTest` already covers the managed-table lifecycle on
both versions, which is the path CTAS actually takes.

## What APIs are changed? Are there any user-facing changes?

None.

## AI assistance

Prepared with agentic AI assistance. I verified the dispatch against the
compiled `DelegatingCatalogExtension`, `CreateTableAsSelectExec` and
`V2SessionCatalog` in both Spark versions rather than reasoning from the
source I had.

Subject: [PATCH 282/498] fix(spark): keep the cause when a path cannot be
 loaded as a table (#9330)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

## Rationale for this change

`loadTable` translates a failed schema inference into
`NoSuchTableException` so SQL users see "table not found" rather than an
internal error. But it discarded the original exception entirely — no
cause, no suppressed, no log.

That threw away the message #8858 added, which names the offending path,
and collapsed a credentials failure or an unsupported Arrow type into
the same "not found" as an empty directory.

## What changes are included in this PR?

`NoSuchTableException` has no cause-accepting constructor common to
Spark 3.5 and 4.1 (only `(Identifier)` is), so the original failure is
carried as a suppressed exception and logged at warn.

- `./gradlew :vortex-spark_2.13:test --tests '…VortexCatalogTest'
--tests '…VortexSqlTest'` — 16 pass
- same on `:vortex-spark_2.12:test`
- `spotlessCheck` (both variants) and `javadoc` — clean

The existing `VortexCatalogTest.unreadablePathIsReportedAsMissingTable`
and `VortexSqlTest.testDirectPathNotFound` still pass: the exception
type is unchanged.

## What APIs are changed? Are there any user-facing changes?

None. Same exception type; the cause is now recoverable from
`getSuppressed()` and appears in the log.

## AI assistance

Prepared with agentic AI assistance. I checked the
`NoSuchTableException` constructors available in both supported Spark
versions before choosing `addSuppressed` over a cause argument.

 ## Project Information
 
+### Rust Version Compatibility Policy
+
+**The policy: Vortex supports the four most recent stable minor releases.** Writing the latest
+stable release as `1.N`, that means `1.N`, `1.N-1`, `1.N-2`, and `1.N-3` all build Vortex, so the
+three minor releases older than the latest stable release. Only the minor version is constrained;
+Minimum Supported Rust Version (MSRV) declared in `Cargo.toml` must be **no newer than `1.N-3`**,
+patch releases are never a factor.
+
+An MSRV *older* than `1.N-3` is always acceptable — supporting extra releases cannot break the
+guarantee. An MSRV *newer* than `1.N-3` does not meet the policy. For example, once `1.98` is the
+latest stable release:
+
+| Declared MSRV | Status |
+| --- | --- |
+| `1.94` or older | Acceptable — supports more releases than required |
+| `1.95` | Exactly on policy |
+| `1.96` or newer | Does not meet the policy |
+
+The MSRV is raised in occasional deliberate steps rather than on every Rust release, so it drifts
+relative to that bound.
+
+How the policy is applied:
+
+- The MSRV is declared once, as `rust-version` in the root `Cargo.toml`, and inherited by every
+  crate in the workspace. That value, not this document, is the source of truth.
+- The toolchain pinned in `rust-toolchain.toml` tracks the latest stable release and is independent
+  of the MSRV. It is what contributors and most CI jobs build with.
+- CI enforces the declared MSRV in the `Rust (MSRV)` job, which builds the publishable crates with
+  exactly that toolchain. When it fails, the first choices are to express the code without the
+  newer Rust feature, or to hold back the dependency update that raised the requirement. Raising
+  `rust-version` is a last resort.

Subject: [PATCH 285/498] fix(spark): name the Vortex files when a read fails
 (#9326)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

## Rationale for this change

The three `IOException` wrappers in `VortexPartitionReader` threw a bare
`RuntimeException(e)`. When a scan fails mid-flight the executor log
then shows the cause's stack trace but not the one fact it cannot carry:
which Vortex files were being read. On a scan spanning many partitions
that is the difference between a one-line diagnosis and grepping task
logs.

The reader already holds the paths — it opens the `DataSource` with
them.

## What changes are included in this PR?

Each wrapper now names the partition's paths and what the reader was
doing (`load a batch from` / `read the loaded batch of` / `close the
reader over`), through one small helper.

- `./gradlew :vortex-spark_2.13:test` — 167 tests, only the pre-existing
`VortexDataSourceS3MockTest` fails here for lack of a Docker environment
- same on `:vortex-spark_2.12:test`
- `spotlessCheck` (both variants) and `javadoc` — clean

No new test: these branches need a mid-scan native I/O failure, which
the suite has no fixture for.

## What APIs are changed? Are there any user-facing changes?

None. The exception type is unchanged; only the message gains the paths.

## AI assistance

Prepared with agentic AI assistance. I read the reader's three failure
paths and confirmed `spark.paths()` is already available at each of
them.

Subject: [PATCH 286/498] `Expression` enum and `Root` variant (#9247)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Makes `Root` an `Expression` variant instead of a `ScalarFnVTable`
implementation.

This is groundwork for lambdas and variables — those are also nodes
whose dtype comes from the
scope rather than from their children, and they need the same treatment.

`Root` is not a scalar function. Its dtype comes from the scope rather
than from its children (it has no children) and it is not executable.

This PR makes `Expression` an enum instead of a struct. `Root` becomes a
variant, and upcoming `Lambda` and `Variable` become variants as well.

```rust
pub enum Expression {
    Scalar { scalar_fn: ScalarFnRef, children: Arc<Vec<Expression>> },
    Root,
}
```

This is a small breaking change.

Subject: [PATCH 287/498] Harden indexed lane sources (#9358)

## Rationale for this change

Lets indexed lane sources return borrowed or otherwise non-`Copy` items.
RowFn needs this for typed row inputs without adding a second kernel
abstraction.

- Progress towards: #9129

## What changes are included in this PR?

Removes the `Copy` bound from `IndexedSource::Item`. It also makes
`LaneZip` fields private, validates lengths once in `LaneZip::new`, and
removes the repeated assertion from its inline `len` method.

This is a prerequisite only. The first production RowFn adopter is in
#9345, so there is no meaningful RowFn performance comparison at this
layer.

## What APIs are changed? Are there any user-facing changes?

`LaneZip` must now be constructed with `LaneZip::new` instead of tuple
syntax. The workspace has no direct field construction outside this
module.

see https://github.com/vortex-data/vortex/issues/9062

This PR add the first impl of plan nodes mirroring some layout readers.

## Summary

- add a standalone `Plan` / `PlanRef` model for layout scan planning
- represent flat, chunked, dictionary, list, struct, expression, and
row-index plans

+# Scan Plans
+
+A scan plan is the physical plan for satisfying one scan query. It is a tree of physical operators
+over a row domain, describing the reads and derived work needed to produce that query's result.
+
+## Operators, not layout mirrors
+
+Plan operators describe *what work happens*, not *which layout produced it*. Their identity and
+operator-specific state are independent of the source layout kind. The complete plan node is not:
+its common lazy-child container can own hidden source state used to materialize individual children
+on demand.
+
+| Operator | Work |
+| --- | --- |
+| `SegmentScan` | read one segment and decode it to an array |
+| `Concat` | concatenate its children row-wise |
+| `Pack` | assemble a struct from one child per field, plus optional validity |
+| `Take` | index `values` by `codes` |
+| `ListPack` | assemble a list from elements and offsets, plus optional validity |
+| `Eval` | apply an expression to its child |
+| `RowIdx` | offset row numbers into the file's row domain |
+
+Naming operators for what they compute is what lets one rule cover every case. `Concat` of
+`Concat` flattens on shape alone, and `Take` over `SegmentScan` is the dictionary pushdown,
+regardless of the source layout.
+
+The stored layout tree describes all physical data in a file. A plan is query-specific: it is built
+from that tree for one projection, filter, and row domain. Different queries over the same file can
+therefore produce different plans.
+
+## Optimization
+
+Child replacement is implemented by the common plan container rather than by every operator. It
+replaces the external child container, clones `PlanData`, then invokes the operator's
+`PlanVTable::with_children` callback to validate the new children and refresh derived caches such
+as `Concat` row offsets. Rules therefore rewrite the generic tree without reconstructing common
+plan fields inside each operator.
+
+Optimization rewrites the initial tree so that each expression is evaluated as close as possible to
+the physical data that can satisfy it. Every rewrite must preserve the query result, including its
+dtype, row domain, row order, row identity, null behavior, and observable errors.
+
+Planning does not read segment data. It constructs and optimizes a description of the work that a
+later execution stage will perform.
+
+## Vtables
+
+Each operator is a small vtable type implementing `PlanVTable`, paired with a `Plan<V>` container
+over a shared `PlanRef`. `PlanRef` points to one allocation whose ordinary fields hold the operator
+ID, dtype, row count, and lazy children. Only the unsized tail containing the vtable and
+`V::PlanData` is erased behind `dyn DynPlan`, so common-field reads do not use dynamic dispatch.
+`Plan<V>` provides typed access to that operator data through `Deref`.
+
+`PlanVTable` also carries `id` and a `Metadata` codec. Operators with no unrecoverable state
+already serialize their metadata; the ones holding a read context or a bound expression return
+`None` until those codecs exist.
+
+## Future work
+
+Plans currently stop at construction and optimization. Still to come: a plan registry and foreign
+operator placeholder so third-party operators survive a round trip, a serialization envelope, and
+an execution stage that walks an optimized plan, reads the referenced segments, and returns the
+query result.

Subject: [PATCH 293/498] Reduce number of clones and drops in expression
 optimisation logic (#9378)

Expression optimisation performs a lot of unnecessary clones and drops.
Instead of having an extensible trait we limit the optimisation logic to
only happen over Expressions and Arrays, logically these are the only
two types we might want to run optimisations over. Using that
simplification we convert majority of the allocations into borrows

Subject: [PATCH 294/498] feat(vortex-spatial): add collect scalar function
 (#9218)

## Summary

- add strict homogeneous ST_Collect overloads for lists of Point,
LineString, and Polygon
- return the corresponding native MultiPoint, MultiLineString, or
MultiPolygon type
- use shared unary dispatch for constant handling and strict outer-null
propagation
- reuse geometry storage on the all-valid path and compact only nullable
inner elements
- add focused tests and a dedicated microbenchmark

Subject: [PATCH 295/498] feat(vortex-spatial): add convex hull scalar function
 (#9219)

## Summary

- add a strict native MultiPoint to Polygon convex-hull scalar function
- delegate planar hull computation directly to geo::ConvexHull
- preserve CRS and outer nullability while materializing native 2-D
Polygon storage
- use shared unary dispatch for constants and strict null propagation
- cover empty, one-point, collinear, nullable, constant, and Q5-style
collect-to-hull-to-area execution
- add a dedicated convex-hull microbenchmark

## Semantics

The return dtype is always native Polygon, including empty and
degenerate hulls. Consistent with the current geometry-kernel policy,
coordinate finiteness is unchecked unless validation is explicitly
enabled; this function does not add per-call NaN validation.

Subject: [PATCH 297/498] Benchmark SIMD kernels per instruction set on
 CodSpeed (#9366)

## Rationale for this change

CodSpeed's only measures simulated runtime, this is not great for SIMD

## What changes are included in this PR?

**`#[isa(..)]`**, a proc macro in a new unpublished
`vortex-bench-support` crate. It sits above an otherwise untouched
`#[divan::bench]` and fills in its arguments:

```rust
#[isa(avx2)]
#[divan::bench(args = INPUT_SIZE)]
fn words_gather_avx2(bencher: Bencher, len: usize) { .. }
```

From f8d4db9c8759f82bb139b8cbb11cdea8842bb62d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Matthew Katz <joe.isaacs@live.co.uk>
Date: Thu, 13 Aug 2026 03:25:52 -0700
Subject: [PATCH 299/498] Flatten `BoundKind` into `BoundExpression` (#9256)

Collapses `BoundExpression { kind: BoundKind, dtype }` into a single
enum, with `dtype` on each variant.

```rust
pub enum BoundExpression {
    Scalar { dtype: DType, scalar_fn: ScalarFnRef, children: Arc<Vec<BoundExpression>> },
    Root { dtype: DType },
}
```

This is a prerequisite for lambdas, which have no dtype but should be a
variant.

Subject: [PATCH 301/498] Rebuild the Python runtime after fork (#9376)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Make python runtime pool fork friendly. While it's preferable to use
threads instead of processes we should gracefully recover from being forked
instead of deadlocking

+"""The Vortex runtime must be rebuilt in forked children, or every read there hangs.
+
+Every scenario in `child_scenarios.py` runs against each `multiprocessing` start method available
+on the platform. `fork` is the hazard being guarded against; `spawn` and `forkserver` start their
+children from a fresh interpreter, so they mainly prove that the pickling those methods require
+(Expr, Array, VortexFile) still works and that a child built from scratch reads just as well.
+
+Each combination runs in a **fresh interpreter** that imports nothing but Vortex, and only then
+creates children. That keeps the tests measuring Vortex's own behaviour: several third-party
+libraries (Ray, DuckDB, CUDA drivers) install their own `atfork` handlers or hold locks that make
+`fork` unsafe process-wide, so forking straight from the pytest process would be testing them as
+much as us.
+
+A regression shows up as a timeout, since the failure mode being guarded against is a hang.

 Editions can be used to constrain your minimum required vortex reader, since latest version over vortex across all
 editions is the earliest version of vortex required to read that file.
 
+## What an edition contains
+
+Every member of an edition is recorded with a **component kind**: `array`, `layout`, or `aggregate`. The kind is
+recorded because ids are unique only within a kind — a layout named `vortex.flat` and an array encoding named
+`vortex.flat` are different members — and because membership is resolved one kind at a time. The writer holds a
+separate id set per kind and enforces each where that kind is written:
+
+| Kind | Written | Enforced at |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| `array` | every serialized array | array serialization context |
+| `layout` | the footer's layout tree | layout serialization context |
+| `aggregate` | zone maps in zoned layouts | the layout writer context |
+
+**Writing a component outside the enabled editions fails the write, for every kind.** A zone map is only an
+optimization, so a forbidden aggregate could in principle be dropped instead — but a file that silently prunes
+worse than the writer was configured for is a bug you find in a benchmark six months later, not an error you can
+act on. Violations surface at write time or not at all.
+
+Aggregates are checked against the set the write would actually record: an aggregate that a column's dtype cannot
+hold is not written, so it is not a violation either.
+
+**A kind with no declared members is unrestricted.** An edition that declares no layouts makes no promise about
+layouts, so the writer leaves them alone rather than forbidding all of them; declaring the first member of a kind is
+what arms its filter. `core2026.08.0` declares the aggregates the default writer records in zone maps — `min`,
+`max`, `bounded_min`, `bounded_max`, `nan_count`, `null_count` — so that filter is armed by default. `sum` is not
+among them: a zone sum prunes nothing, so the writer records none. File-level statistics still carry a sum, which
+this filter does not govern. A
+session that registers components outside `core`, such as the spatial extension types, enables its own edition
+family alongside `core`, and the writer may emit the union.

Subject: [PATCH 308/498] Store `Normalized` validity on the array instead of
 in its children (#9202)

## Rationale for this change

- Closes: #9200

`Normalized` derived its validity by combining two independently
nullable children. Decode and read-through paths then had to reconstruct
the parent nullability, which caused dtype widening and assertion
failures.

## What changes are included in this PR?

Moves validity onto `Normalized` and makes both data children
non-nullable. `normalize` zeroes both children at null rows,
serialization stores an optional validity child, and deserialization
rejects layouts whose validity child conflicts with the parent dtype.

The lossless split now checks zero rows and zero norms in both
directions. The compression scheme rejects non-float tensors,
constant-norm decoding only treats exactly `1.0` as the identity, and
`normalize` avoids recomputing or filling norms when unnecessary.

## What APIs are changed? Are there any user-facing changes?

This changes the unstable `vortex.tensor.normalized` layout. `try_new`
and `new_unchecked` now take a `Validity` and require non-nullable
children. The validity child passes through compression unchanged, so
nullable columns store the mask directly.

-//! The [`Normalized`] encoding: a norm-split physical layout for tensor-like columns.
+//! The [`Normalized`] encoding stores tensor directions separately from their L2 norms.
 //!
-//! An [`Normalized`] array stores a tensor or vector column as two children:
-//!
-//! - `normalized`, a tensor-like column whose valid rows are unit-norm (or zero), and
-//! - `norms`, a primitive float column holding the authoritative L2 norm of each row.
-//!
-//! The logical value of row `i` is `normalized[i] * norms[i]`, so canonicalizing the array
-//! reconstructs the original tensor column. Splitting magnitude away from direction is what makes
-//! the coordinates cheap to compress further: a unit-norm child has a bounded, well-conditioned
-//! value range, and quantizing it only perturbs direction while the exact magnitude survives in
-//! `norms`.
-//!
-//! Because the split is physical rather than logical, [`L2Norm`], [`InnerProduct`], and
-//! [`CosineSimilarity`] can read straight through it instead of decoding first.
+//! [`Normalized`] defines the physical layout and its invariants. Use [`normalize`] to create an
+//! exact split. [`L2Norm`], [`InnerProduct`], and [`CosineSimilarity`] can operate on the split
+//! without decoding it first.

Subject: [PATCH 309/498] fix: honor Kleene `AND` semantics for `Between` null
 bounds (#9404)

## Rationale for this change

`Between` is not strict, so a null bound still gives a definite `false`
when the other comparison is false. `validity` and `precondition` both
treated it as strict and nulled those rows. `precondition` keys off
`as_constant()`, so the result was also encoding-dependent: an all-null
chunk stored as a `PrimitiveArray` gave `[false, null]` while the same
chunk compressed to a `ConstantArray` gave `[null, null]`.

- Closes: #9212

## What changes are included in this PR?

`validity` returns `None`, matching `Binary` for `Operator::And`.
`precondition` short-circuits to all null only when both bounds are
null, and otherwise desugars into the two comparisons under Kleene
`AND`, since every kernel needs non-null constant bounds. That
desugaring replaces the existing fallback in `between_canonical`.

For review, read the two commits one at a time. The first is safe alone,
the second is not, so the order matters.

## What APIs are changed? Are there any user-facing changes?

No public API change. `precondition` is crate-internal and gains an
`options` parameter. Filter results change for predicates with a null
bound, which is the fix.

From 65241c2ca75139da75db33aedfcaaa745e6d514c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Joe Isaacs <joe.isaacs@live.co.uk>
Date: Mon, 17 Aug 2026 11:28:01 +0100
Subject: [PATCH 311/498] Add plan optimizer rules and push expressions (#9196)

## Summary

- add typed `PlanParentReduceRule` and type-erased adapter APIs for
child-driven physical-plan rewrites
- add an ordered static `PlanParentRuleSet` whose first successful
rewrite wins
- register concrete `Eval` reductions for `Concat`, `Take`, `RowIdx`,
and `Pack`

Subject: [PATCH 312/498] Use `Fn` for out-of-place lane kernels (#9419)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Narrows the out-of-place lane-kernel callback bounds from `FnMut` to
`Fn` and propagates that contract through the current `vortex-array`
adapters, so callers cannot introduce loop-carried state into per-lane
work.

The decimal speedup comes from the callback shape after
monomorphization. The old adapter reached the loop through `&mut &mut
Closure`, while the `Fn` version uses shared references and lets LLVM
vectorize the range check. `Fn` is not required to recover this codegen:
passing the stateless closure by value through the existing `FnMut` API
also vectorizes, but this PR chooses `Fn` because these kernels model
independent per-lane work and do not need mutable callback state.

<details>
<summary>Codegen investigation</summary>

`cast_decimal_buffer` previously passed `&mut cast` into `try_map_into`.
That monomorphized the kernel with `F = &mut Closure`, then its chunk
helper received `&mut F`, producing the nested mutable receiver.

| Variant | Receiver in the chunk loop | Optimized result |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Existing `FnMut` adapter | `&mut &mut Closure` | Scalar range check
with a captured-bound load on each lane |
| This PR | `&&Closure` | Both bounds hoisted and eight `i64` values
processed per iteration on arm64 |
| Diagnostic `FnMut` variant | `&mut Closure` | Same vector loop as this
PR |

The diagnostic variant kept every `FnMut` bound and only moved the
closure into `try_map_into`. A narrower fix could make that call-site
change, or otherwise restructure the helper to avoid the nested mutable
receiver, without restricting the public callback bound.

</details>

<details>
<summary>Local benchmark results</summary>

Compared `b363fb7` (`FnMut`) with `e973d82` (`Fn`) on arm64 macOS using
rustc 1.97.1, `-C target-cpu=native`, the bench profile, and CodSpeed's
wall-time runner. Each run used 1,000 samples, and the order alternated
across three baseline/candidate pairs.

The `copy_non_nullable` case casts 65,536 non-nullable decimal values
through the affected dense `try_map_into` path.

| Run | `FnMut` | `Fn` |
| --- | ---: | ---: |
| Pair 1 | 22.79 µs | 13.70 µs |
| Pair 2 | 23.33 µs | 13.37 µs |
| Pair 3 | 23.43 µs | 13.37 µs |

The median run fell from 23.33 µs to 13.37 µs, a 42.7% reduction. Other
changed arithmetic, comparison, and cast monomorphizations showed no
consistent separation, while the unchanged Boolean and in-place cast
controls were flat.

A separate three-pair check of the CodSpeed-reported
`compress_fsst[(1000, 64, 8)]` regression used 500 samples per run. Its
median run was 112.4 µs for the baseline and 111.9 µs for this PR, so
the local runs did not reproduce that regression.

From b825c4fc3ec449768f8d00be5faea2d883b5d60b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Connor Tsui <connor.tsui20@gmail.com>
Date: Mon, 17 Aug 2026 13:33:24 -0400
Subject: [PATCH 314/498] Fix empty array validity predicates (#9417)

## Rationale for this change

- Closes #9403

`ArrayRef::all_valid` treated an empty bitmap's missing `Min` statistic
as evidence of a null, so `MaskedArray` rejected an empty child based on
its validity representation.

## What changes are included in this PR?

Empty arrays are now vacuously both all-valid and all-invalid. `Masked`
validation now enforces the all-valid child invariant, and a regression
covers the empty bitmap case.

+// OnPair decompress — 4 tokens/thread, split-read dictionary.
+//
+// One warp decodes one 128-token batch (4 tokens per lane) in four phases:
+//
+// 1. Load   — each lane fetches its 4 codes, their first-8 dictionary bytes
+//             (`dict_s8`), and their lengths.
+// 2. Scan   — a warp prefix-scan of the lengths positions every token within
+//             the batch and yields the batch's total decoded size.
+// 3. Stage  — token bytes are gathered into a per-warp shared staging buffer;
+//             only the rare `len > 8` tokens touch the full 16-byte-row
+//             `dict_padded`.
+// 4. Drain  — the staged bytes stream to global output as an aligned `uint4`
+//             body between a byte head and tail.
+//
+// Baseline `onpair_shmem_4tpt` is L1/TEX-cache-request bound on the per-token
+// 16-byte `uint4` gather into the 64 KB padded dict, where the dict L1 hit rate
+// is only ~31% (the 64 KB dict thrashes against the streaming codes/output).
+//
+// Most tokens are short (mean dict len ~6). This variant reads the common case
+// from the **32 KB** `dict_s8` array (first 8 bytes/entry, `uint2`) and only
+// touches the 64 KB `dict_padded` for the rare `len > 8` tokens. Halving the
+// hot dict working set aims to raise the dict L1 hit rate, cutting L2 sectors
+// and L1/TEX-request pressure. As a bonus, holding `uint2 lo[4]` (32 B) instead
+// of `uint4 t[4]` (64 B) lowers register pressure.

+//!    exclusive-scans the sizes in-kernel via decoupled look-back.
+//! 2. `onpair_window_offsets` reads this array's token window from the
+//!    device-resident `codes_offsets` child — the offsets are nondecreasing,
+//!    so the window's min and max are its first and last elements — and
+//!    resolves the window's byte positions inside the decoded stream in the
+//!    same launch: the whole-batch prefix from `chunk_offsets` plus a
+//!    partial-batch reduction over each boundary batch's head. No boundary is
+//!    read on host before the single gating readback.
+//! 3. `onpair_shmem_4tpt_split8read` gathers each token's bytes from the
+//!    split dictionary layout and scatters them to the output byte stream;
+//!    the window is then exposed as a zero-copy device slice of the heap.
+//!
+//! Every kernel that reads the codes is instantiated for the two widths
+//! OnPair stores (u16 natively, u8 when the compressor narrowed the codes),
+//! so the code stream is decompressed on device and never widened.
+//!
+//! The heap size and window bounds come from the GPU; each output path builds
+//! its row offsets from the lengths child with [`i32_offsets_from_lengths`]
+//! on device and validates them against the window size before they index the
+//! decoded bytes. The result is exposed either as a canonical `VarBinView`
+//! (views built on-device by `onpair_build_views`, or on host for windows
+//! that exceed a single backing buffer — the only path that materialises the
+//! lengths) or as Arrow-compatible i32 offsets plus values via
+//! [`decode_onpair_varbin`] — mirroring the FSST varbin path.

Subject: [PATCH 317/498] test(jni): assert the Java and Rust expression tag
 tables agree (#9454)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

## Rationale for this change

`Expression` hands four byte tags to the native side, each with its own
reader in `expression.rs`: `BinaryOp` → `parse_op`, `DuplicateHandling`
→ `parse_duplicate_handling`, `TimeUnit` → `TimeUnit::try_from`, `DType`
→ the table in `literalNull`. Three of the four javadocs say the values
must match the Rust table; nothing checked it. Drift compiles on both
sides, and the two failure modes differ: a tag past the end of a table
throws at runtime, but a tag that collides with a sibling decodes to the
wrong operator or unit and returns an expression that reads valid.

## What changes are included in this PR?

Test only, one new file. Each table is pinned twice — the constants
against the bytes Rust matches, and every constant through the native
call that consumes it.

Both temporal types are covered because between them they reject enough
units to tell the five `TimeUnit` tags apart: Timestamp takes everything
but `DAYS`, Date only `DAYS` and `MILLISECONDS`.

Verified non-vacuous: eight mutations of the Java tables, covering both
off-the-end and colliding tags, each fail a targeted test.
`:vortex-jni:test` goes from 32 to 46, no failures.

## What APIs are changed? Are there any user-facing changes?

None.

## AI assistance

Prepared with agentic AI assistance. I read both sides of each table and
confirmed the mutations fail.

+ * five {@code TimeUnit} tags apart — Timestamp takes everything but {@code DAYS}, Date only {@code DAYS} and

Subject: [PATCH 318/498] Propagate slice bounds into onpair gpu decoding
 (#9457)

For sliced onpair arrays we still decompress the whole thing and slice at the
end. With this we propagate slice bounds to the decompression kernel and
let it cheaply ignore out of bounds chunks

Subject: [PATCH 319/498] test(spark): characterize
 SparkPredicateToVortexExpression conversion (#9452)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

## Rationale for this change

`isPushable` documents an invariant: when it returns true, `convert`
must succeed. Otherwise `VortexScanBuilder.pushPredicates` lets Spark
drop a predicate that `VortexPartitionReader` silently skips, and the
scan returns rows the query excluded. Only `isPushable` was tested;
`convert` had no coverage.

## What changes are included in this PR?

Test only. Asserts both sides of the invariant over every accepted
shape: the comparison operators with the column on either side,
column-to-column, null checks, `IN`, the string matches with `%`, `_`
and `\` in the needle, bare boolean columns, the constants, nested
`AND`/`OR`/`NOT`, and all 13 literal types. Rejections too: wrong arity,
unknown predicate name, empty named reference, and a decimal that does
not fit its scale.

Verified non-vacuous: five mutations — dropping `BOOLEAN_EXPRESSION`
from `convert`, the null decimal literal, the commuted comparison,
`columnOf`'s zero-part guard, and `default -> false` — each fail a
targeted test.

27 pass on `:vortex-spark_2.13:test` and on `:vortex-spark_2.12:test`;
the full suites and `spotlessCheck` are clean apart from the S3Mock
test, which needs Docker.

## What APIs are changed? Are there any user-facing changes?

None.

## AI assistance

Prepared with agentic AI assistance. I read the translator end to end
and confirmed the mutations above fail.

Subject: [PATCH 320/498] Implement RowFn row execution (#9353)

## Rationale for this change

- Tracking issue: #9130
- API tracking: #9129
- Epic: #9128

Implements typed row execution for the contracts in #9386. Batch
planning and orchestration are split into #9450.

## What changes are included in this PR?

Adds owned-output and sink-writing row loops, prepared and deferred
execution, the `ViewLen` contract, and decoding validation. This layer
does not yet connect the row loops to `execute_rows`.

## What APIs are changed? Are there any user-facing changes?

Extends the existing `unstable_row_fns` API. There are no stable API
changes.

Subject: [PATCH 321/498] Remove the unused
 `StrictComparison::to_compare_operator` (#9405)

## Rationale for this change

`to_compare_operator` lost its last caller in #9404, which rewrote the
`between_canonical` fallback to build its operators with `to_operator`.
Nothing else in the workspace calls it, and it is a `pub const fn`, so
no dead-code lint will report it later.

## What changes are included in this PR?

Deletes the method and the `CompareOperator` import it needed. Split out
from #9404 because `StrictComparison` is public and eight crates use it,
so removing a method from it is a separate decision from a semantics
fix.

## What APIs are changed? Are there any user-facing changes?

`StrictComparison::to_compare_operator` is gone. No caller exists in the
workspace, but it was reachable, so this is a public API removal.
`to_operator` covers the same need and returns the `Operator` that the
call sites take.

Subject: [PATCH 322/498] Remove dtype coercion logic (#9456)

This functionality is extremely engine specific. While vortex can
provide it's
implementation it has to live in a higher level primitive such that it
doesn't clash with particular engine integrations

 Vortex expressions are strictly typed. This means that the input data types to an expression must exactly match the
 expected data types of the expression's signature.

-The notable exception to this rule, is that many expressions permit null-coercion. For example, the equality comparison

Subject: [PATCH 323/498] Rename the `precondition` helpers to `short_circuit`
 (#9406)

## Rationale for this change

`precondition` was just kind of confusing. These helpers do not check a
precondition, they check for some specific conditions and return early.

This is a purely cosmetic change.

Subject: [PATCH 327/498] Deduplicate BitBuffer set-index visitors (#9461)

## Rationale for this change

Keeps the infallible and fallible set-index visitors on one
implementation. Optimized LLVM IR and assembly for the measured hot path
were identical. Eight paired runtime comparisons on macOS with Apple M4
Max and rustc 1.97.1 showed no clear difference.

## What changes are included in this PR?

Routes `BitBuffer::for_each_set_index` through `try_for_each_set_index`
with `Infallible`, removing the duplicate traversal. The `vortex-buffer`
tests, all-target/all-feature Clippy, and doctests pass.

## What APIs are changed? Are there any user-facing changes?

No public API or behavior changes.

Subject: [PATCH 328/498] Deduplicate trusted-length buffer construction
 without losing vectorization (#9467)

## Rationale for this change

Deduplicates trusted-length buffer construction without moving the
infallible hot path behind a fallible iterator adapter. This replaces
the delegation direction from closed #9462, which prevented the affected
`Map::fold` from vectorizing.

## What changes are included in this PR?

The fallible methods delegate through `ProcessResults`, preserving
short-circuiting and partial writes while reusing the original
vectorizable write loop. All 843 `vortex-buffer` tests, 8 doctests, and
all-target/all-feature Clippy pass.

<details>
<summary>LLVM IR and assembly comparison</summary>

Compared `3805421bd6` (the pre-#9462 implementation) with the repaired
`ProcessResults` source applied to `32359fbd5c`. The build used rustc
1.97.1 with LLVM 22.1.6, `--profile bench`, `x86_64-apple-darwin`,
`+avx2`, 16 CGUs, and LTO disabled.

After removing debug and attribute IDs, the optimized LLVM IR for the
affected `BinaryView` `Map::fold` monomorphization was identical:

```text
baseline:  b2eb411d793d5ea1da7c4b1463a07160b1220ab16d919e7de9cb995d652b688e
candidate: b2eb411d793d5ea1da7c4b1463a07160b1220ab16d919e7de9cb995d652b688e
```

The loop retained its `<32 x i32>` load and `<8 x i32>` vector
operations. Representative instructions from the emitted candidate IR:

```llvm
vector.body:
  %wide.vec = load <32 x i32>, ptr %19, align 4
  ; shufflevector instructions split the interleaved BinaryView fields
  %20 = icmp ult <8 x i32> %strided.vec, splat (i32 13)
  %21 = select <8 x i1> %20, <8 x i32> zeroinitializer, <8 x i32> %broadcast.splat
  %22 = add <8 x i32> %21, %strided.vec19
  ; shufflevector instructions rebuild the interleaved BinaryView values
  store <32 x i32> %interleaved.vec, ptr %next.gep, align 4
  %index.next = add nuw i64 %index, 8
```

After removing line tables and renumbering local labels and constants,
the assembly was also identical and retained `vpermd`, `vpblendd`, and
`vpaddd`:

```text
baseline:  2615dc42229632054f3070a1e4936b60bf37f3e2d5b5ff5a31744e6817cf12b3
candidate: 2615dc42229632054f3070a1e4936b60bf37f3e2d5b5ff5a31744e6817cf12b3
```

</details>

## What APIs are changed? Are there any user-facing changes?

No public API or user-facing behavior changes.

Subject: [PATCH 330/498] CONTRIBUTING.md: Update committers and maintainers
 (#9472)

## Rationale for this change

Keep the project role lists current after one maintainer promotion and
two committer additions.

## What changes are included in this PR?

Move Joseph Isaacs from Committers to Maintainers. Add Mikhail Kot and
Mosha Pasumansky as Committers. Sort both lists by first name.

## What APIs are changed? Are there any user-facing changes?

No APIs or user-facing behavior change.

Subject: [PATCH 332/498] fix(jni): rebase array offsets before handing batches
 to Java (#9466)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

A boolean column read across a chunk boundary that is not a multiple of
8 arrives in Java with every subsequent value shifted by `start % 8`.
arrow-rs exports `ArrayData::offset` over the C Data Interface without
rebasing the buffer pointers, and arrow-java's importer does not honor
that field, so the Java side reads from the start of the byte holding
the offset. Normalize the offset at the JNI export boundary, rather than
in the shared arrow conversion, so arrow-rs consumers keep the zero-copy
slice.

Subject: [PATCH 334/498] test(jni): characterize ScanOptions validation and
 write summary values (#9453)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

## Rationale for this change

Both classes sit on the untyped JNI boundary. `ScanOptions` validates
its selection payload in a `@Value.Check` because `scan.rs` receives the
mode as a bare byte next to two possibly-empty arrays — an absent
payload arrives there as an empty selection, not an error. Three of the
five checks had no test. On the write side, `exact_count_jlong` sends
`-1` when Vortex has no exact statistic and the accessors turn that into
an empty `OptionalLong`, also untested.

## What changes are included in this PR?

Test only, two new files.

`ScanOptionsTest` covers the defaults, each mode against a missing,
wrong-kind, empty and doubly-supplied payload, the array copy in
`includeRows`, the roaring round trip, and that `SelectionMode.code()`
matches the bytes `scan.rs` switches on.

`VortexWriteSummaryTest` covers the `-1` sentinel against an exact zero,
one count exact while the other is absent, the bound types
`scalar_to_java` produces, the immutable statistics list, and that a
`byte[]` bound is shared, not copied.

Verified non-vacuous: seven mutations, one per behaviour, each fail a
targeted test. `:vortex-jni:test` goes from 32 to 58, no failures.

## What APIs are changed? Are there any user-facing changes?

None.

## AI assistance

Prepared with agentic AI assistance. I read both classes and their
callers in `writer.rs` and `scan.rs`, and confirmed the mutations fail.

 # Editions
 
-Vortex defines an evergrowing set of serializable array encodings, once written this can be read back by any future
-version of vortex.
-**Editions** are used to keep track of these encodings and talk about groups of encodings.
-
-The first edition, `core2025.05.0`, contains the stable encodings that could be written by Vortex
-`0.36.0`. This is the release from which the Vortex file format is considered stable. Later `core`
-editions add stable encodings released after that compatibility boundary.
-Editions are additive so an edition that comes after a previous one contains all the encodings from the previous one
-and more.
-The writer can be configured with a set of different editions (for example, `core2026.07.0` and
-`unstable2026.06.0` select stable encodings released through July 2026 and unstable encodings
-released through June 2026).
-
-Editions can be used to constrain your minimum required vortex reader, since latest version over vortex across all
-editions is the earliest version of vortex required to read that file.
+Vortex files contain several kinds of serialized **component**: array encodings, layout encodings, extension dtypes, and
+aggregate functions. An **edition** is a named set of these components. It controls what a writer may put in a file and,
+once frozen, identifies the earliest Vortex release that supports every component in the set.
+
+Each component consists of a kind, an ID, and the wire contract for its metadata and payload. The compatibility
+guarantee applies to that serialized contract, not to the in-memory implementation that reads or writes it.
+
+Editions belong to independently versioned families and are cumulative within a family. Each edition includes all
+components from the preceding edition in that family, plus any newly added components. A writer selects at most one
+edition from each family and may use the union of their components. For example, selecting `core2026.07.0` and
+`unstable2026.06.0` allows stable components released through July 2026 and unstable components released through June
+
+2026.
+
+The first frozen edition, `core2025.05.0`, contains the components that Vortex `0.36.0` could write. This marks the
+start of the Vortex file format's stability guarantee. Every Vortex release from `0.36.0` onward can read
+`core2025.05.0`, and later frozen `core` editions extend that guarantee to newer components.
+
+When a writer selects only frozen editions, the highest of their minimum Vortex releases is the earliest release
+guaranteed to read the resulting file. Draft editions have no minimum reader version; selecting one gives up this
+guarantee for any draft components written to the file.
 
 ## What an edition contains
 
-Every member of an edition is recorded with a **component kind**: `array`, `layout`, or `aggregate`. The kind is
-recorded because ids are unique only within a kind — a layout named `vortex.flat` and an array encoding named
-`vortex.flat` are different members — and because membership is resolved one kind at a time. The writer holds a
-separate id set per kind and enforces each where that kind is written:
-
-| Kind | Written | Enforced at |
-| --- | --- | --- |
-| `array` | every serialized array | array serialization context |
-| `layout` | the footer's layout tree | layout serialization context |
-| `aggregate` | zone maps in zoned layouts | the layout writer context |
-
-**Writing a component outside the enabled editions fails the write, for every kind.** A zone map is only an
-optimization, so a forbidden aggregate could in principle be dropped instead — but a file that silently prunes
-worse than the writer was configured for is a bug you find in a benchmark six months later, not an error you can
-act on. Violations surface at write time or not at all.
-
-Aggregates are checked against the set the write would actually record: an aggregate that a column's dtype cannot
-hold is not written, so it is not a violation either.
-
-**A kind with no declared members is unrestricted.** An edition that declares no layouts makes no promise about
-layouts, so the writer leaves them alone rather than forbidding all of them; declaring the first member of a kind is
-what arms its filter. `core2026.08.0` declares the aggregates the default writer records in zone maps — `min`,
-`max`, `bounded_min`, `bounded_max`, `nan_count`, `null_count` — so that filter is armed by default. `sum` is not
-among them: a zone sum prunes nothing, so the writer records none. File-level statistics still carry a sum, which
-this filter does not govern. A
-session that registers components outside `core`, such as the spatial extension types, enables its own edition
-family alongside `core`, and the writer may emit the union.
-
-## Resolving an unknown-encoding error
-
-If a read failed with an unknown encoding ID and pointed you here, the reader met an array encoding
-it does not support. Find the encoding ID in the [registry](#edition-registry) below:
-
-1. **The ID is listed under an edition.** The file is newer than your Vortex build. Upgrade to
-   at least that edition's required Vortex release and the file will read.
-2. **The ID is not listed anywhere.** The file was written outside the editions system, with a
-   custom, third-party, or experimental encoding. Ask the producer of the file how to read it,
-   or register the encoding with your session before reading. Tools that only inspect or
-   relocate data (rather than query it) can opt in to `allow_unknown`, which decodes
-   unrecognised encodings into inert placeholders.
+An edition records every component by kind and ID. IDs are unique within a kind, but not across kinds: a layout named
+`vortex.flat` and an array encoding with the same ID are distinct components. The writer therefore builds and enforces a
+separate allowlist for each kind:
+
+| Kind        | Written                                    | Enforced at                  |
+|-------------|--------------------------------------------|------------------------------|
+| `array`     | every serialized array                     | array serialization context  |
+| `layout`    | the footer's layout tree                   | layout serialization context |
+| `dtype`     | extension dtypes nested in the file schema | file writer                  |
+| `aggregate` | zone maps in zoned layouts                 | the layout writer context    |
+
+Writing a component that is absent from the selected editions fails the write. This rule applies to every kind,
+including aggregates. Although a zone map is only an optimization and could be dropped, doing so would silently change
+the writer's configured pruning behavior.
+
+Only aggregates that would actually be written are checked. If a column's dtype cannot support an aggregate, the writer
+omits it and there is no edition violation.
+
+An empty allowlist permits no encodings. Collectively, the selected editions must declare every array encoding, layout
+encoding, extension dtype, and aggregate function that the writer serializes.
+
+For example, `core2026.08.0` declares the aggregate functions that the default writer may store in zone maps: `min`,
+`max`, `bounded_min`, `bounded_max`, `nan_count`, and `null_count`. It does not declare `sum`, because the writer does
+not store sums in zone maps. File-level statistics use a fixed legacy field for sums rather than a serialized aggregate
+function ID, so this allowlist does not apply to them.
+
+Optional Vortex modules enable their own edition families alongside `core`. Spatial support enables
+`spatial2026.08.0`, for example, while JSON support enables `json2026.08.0`.
+
+## Resolving an unknown-component error
+
+An unknown-ID error means that the reader does not recognize a serialized component in the file. Find the component's
+kind and ID in the [registry](#edition-registry):
+
+1. **It belongs to a frozen edition.** Upgrade to at least the minimum Vortex release listed for that edition.
+2. **It belongs to a draft edition.** No released reader is guaranteed to support it. Use a build that registers the
+    component or ask the file's producer which build to use.
+3. **It is not in the registry.** The file contains a custom, third-party, or experimental component outside the
+   editions system. Ask the producer for its implementation and register it with the reader's session.
+
+Tools that only inspect or copy data can opt in to `allow_unknown`. Unknown array encodings, layout encodings, and
+extension dtypes are then preserved as inert representations. An unknown aggregate function disables the affected
+zone-map pruning rather than causing the file to be rejected.
 
 ## Writing with an edition
 
-The default the writer targets a `core` edition lagging the latest vortex release by a few version giving delay before
-writing the latest vortex encodings to disk.
-Every file you write carries the read-forever guarantee. If a file would contain an encoding
-outside the targeted edition, the write fails immediately; edition violations never surface as
-someone else's read error later.
+By default, the Vortex facade targets the newest frozen `core` edition. New components may first appear in a draft
+edition before joining a later frozen `core` edition. If serialization would use a component outside the selected
+editions, the write fails immediately.
 
-The enabled editions are stored on the writer's Vortex session. Registering an edition makes
-its declaration available to the session; enabling it separately allows the writer to emit its
-array encodings. Enabling another edition from the same family replaces the earlier selection.
+Edition configuration belongs to the writer's Vortex session. Registering an edition makes its declaration available to
+the session; enabling it allows the writer to use its components. Enabling another edition in the same family replaces
+the previous selection.
 
-Two knobs exist when the default is not what you want:
+You can change the default configuration to:
 
-- **Pin an older edition** when files must stay readable by deployments running older Vortex.
-- **Opt in to additional edition families.** Editions come in independently versioned,
-  additive families — `core` today, with families for more specialised encoding groups (for
-  example spatial encodings) possible later. A writer targets at most one edition per family
-  and may emit any encoding in their union; each member belongs to exactly one family.
+- **Target an older `core` edition** when the file must remain readable by an older Vortex deployment.
+- **Enable another family** to use components outside `core`. Vortex currently defines `unstable`, `spatial`, and
+  `json` in addition to `core`.
 
-Lower-level sessions without an enabled-editions store opt out of editions entirely and can write
-custom or experimental encodings. A raw `with_allow_encodings` writer policy is another explicit
-opt-out. Either choice gives up the standardization guarantee — only readers that know those
-encodings can read the files.
+Sessions created without the Vortex facade must register and enable their editions before writing files. The lower-level
+`with_allow_encodings` policy can further restrict array encodings, but cannot permit an encoding excluded by the
+selected editions.
 
 ## How editions change
 
-A published edition is frozen — its member list never grows or shrinks. New members are
-staged in a **draft** edition and become guaranteed only when that draft is frozen as the next
-edition; each member's registry entry records its component kind and the edition it joined in.
-Declaring the first member of a kind arms that kind's write-time filter, so a kind gains
-enforcement at the edition that first declares one.
-In the future an encoding may be *deprecated*, meaning writers stop emitting it — but readers
-keep decoding it indefinitely, so deprecation never invalidates existing files.
+A frozen edition never changes: neither its component list nor the meaning of its component IDs may be altered. New
+components are staged in a **draft** edition, whose contents may change. They become part of the compatibility guarantee
+only when that draft is frozen as the next edition in its family.
+
+A component may later be deprecated, meaning that writers stop using it. Readers must continue to support it, so
+deprecation does not invalidate existing files.
+
+## How serialized components evolve
+
+Editions govern serialized components, not in-memory representations. An in-memory representation may gain capabilities
+or be replaced without changing an edition. On read, the plugin registered for a component ID constructs the current
+in-memory representation. On write, the implementation selects a component that can represent the value and is allowed
+by the selected editions.
+
+An in-memory representation often has a single serialized component and uses the same ID in memory and on disk, but this
+is not required. Multiple component IDs may deserialize into the same in-memory representation. Editions constrain the
+ID stored in the file, because that is what the reader must understand.
+
+### Compatible evolution keeps the ID
+
+A component may keep its ID only if changes to its wire format are both **backward and forward compatible**: a new
+reader must correctly interpret data from an old writer, and an old reader must correctly interpret data from a new
+writer. For example, adding an optional field is compatible only if old readers can safely ignore it and new readers use
+the correct default when it is absent.
+
+Compatible evolution may broaden what the wire format accepts, but it cannot change the meaning of data that existing
+readers already accept. Removing or repurposing a field, redefining existing bytes, and requiring information that old
+writers did not provide are all incompatible changes.
+
+### Incompatible evolution requires a new ID
+
+An incompatible revision is a new component, with a new ID, registry entry, and edition membership. The old component
+remains in the registry and must remain readable. The in-memory representation need not change: it can read and write
+both components, choosing between them based on the value and the selected editions.
+
+Name successive incompatible revisions by appending a version to the same base name: `vortex.foo`, `vortex.foo_v2`,
+`vortex.foo_v3`. Do not give successor versions descriptive names. A linear naming scheme keeps the component's
+serialized history unambiguous.
+
+#### Example: multi-part decimals
+
+`vortex.decimal_byte_parts` entered `core2025.05.0` with each decimal value represented by one signed integer child. Its
+metadata includes `lower_part_count`, but readers of this component require that field to be zero. Suppose the in-memory
+representation gains support for wide decimals, represented by a signed most-significant part and one or more unsigned
+64-bit lower parts:
+
+- A single-part array still serializes as `vortex.decimal_byte_parts` with
+  `lower_part_count = 0`, indistinguishable from files written before the change.
+- An array with lower parts uses the new `vortex.decimal_byte_parts_v2` component, initially staged in a draft edition.
+- A new reader deserializes both IDs into the same in-memory representation. An older reader reports
+  `vortex.decimal_byte_parts_v2` as unknown instead of trying to decode a wire format it does not support.
+
+### Reading: deserialize into the current representation
+
+Every component in a frozen edition remains readable. Its deserializer may convert old data directly into the current
+in-memory representation rather than preserving a parallel legacy representation. For example, a `vortex.alp` array with
+interior patches is read as a `Patched` array around a patch-free ALP array. Similarly, old zone maps, including
+`vortex.stats` layouts, are read by the machinery used for modern `vortex.zoned` layouts.
+
+Readers do not negotiate versions. They resolve the component ID and deserialize it, or report an
+[unknown-component error](#resolving-an-unknown-component-error).
+
+### Writing: select a permitted component
+
+Writers choose a component that both represents the current value and belongs to the selected editions. This need not be
+the newest component: if an older component can represent the value exactly, the writer may continue to use it. If the
+preferred component is not permitted, the writer has two options:
+
+1. **Translate.** If the value has a lossless translation to a permitted component, use that component. For example, a
+   newer layout may write its zone statistics using an older statistics schema.
+2. **Convert to canonical and recompress.** Otherwise, decompress the data to a canonical representation and recompress
+   it with the configured compressors, restricted to the selected editions. This is how arrays are handled today: the
+   writer normalizes each chunk to a canonical representation, then lets the edition-filtered compressor choose the
+   final encoding.
+
+Both paths use the normal write pipeline and its configured compressors. If neither can express the data using the
+selected editions, the write fails.
+
+### What this means for each kind
+
+- **Arrays.** The array serialization context permits only encodings from the selected editions.
+- **Layouts.** The layout strategy builds the layout tree at write time. When targeting an older edition, it must use
+  structures available in that edition, such as plain chunked data in place of newer auxiliary layouts.
+- **Extension dtypes.** Before writing any bytes, the file writer recursively validates every extension dtype in the
+  schema. Readers resolve serialized dtype IDs against the session's dtype registry.
+- **Aggregate functions.** Zone maps serialize aggregate function IDs and their options. A zone map containing a
+  function outside the selected editions fails the write. With `allow_unknown`, readers disable a zone map whose
+  aggregate function they do not recognize; ignoring a zone map only reduces pruning and does not affect correctness.
 
 ## Edition registry
 
-Coming soon.. It will list each edition's members with their component kind, the edition they
-joined in, and the Vortex release required to read them.
+Registry entries list the edition in which each component first appeared. Later editions in the same family inherit all
+earlier components.

Subject: [PATCH 336/498] duckdb: support TIMESTAMP_TZ and TIME_NS (#9476)

- Support TIMESTAMP_TZ with any time zone (before we supported only
UTC).
- Support TIME_NS (nanosecond timestamp resolution).
- Fix a display bug where a COPY error (e.g. to an invalid file) was
  swallowed and a generic error was displayed instead.
- Fix a potential bug of TIMESTAMP_TZ filter incorrectly converted
  to a Vortex filter due to time resolution mismatch.

This specific bug has been already fixed, but this change fixes a
class of bugs.
Resolves: #9396

-GPU decompression is opt-in and runs only the existing benchmark names allow-listed in
-`src/main.rs`:
+## GPU decompression
+
+`--gpu-decompress` is opt-in, requires the `cuda` feature, and restricts the suite to the
+GPU dataset list in `src/main.rs`. It measures decompression only, for two backends:
+
+- **Vortex** — the file is written with CUDA-compatible BtrBlocks encodings only
+  (`only_cuda_compatible`) and a CUDA flat layout, then decoded on the device all the way to
+  canonical arrays.
+- **Parquet** — the file is rewritten with GPU-friendly writer settings (see below) and read
+  back with [cuDF](https://github.com/rapidsai/cudf)'s `read_parquet`, which performs the
+  whole read on the device: page header decode, codec decompression, dictionary/RLE/plain
+  decoding and column assembly.
+
+Both sides therefore decode all the way to device-resident arrays, which is what makes the
+`vortex:parquet-<codec> gpu ratio decompress time` metric a like-for-like comparison.
 
 ```bash
 cargo run -p compress-bench --profile release_debug \
   --features cuda,unstable_encodings -- --gpu-decompress
+
+# pick the Parquet page codec the GPU file is written with (default: snappy)
+cargo run -p compress-bench --profile release_debug \
+  --features cuda,unstable_encodings -- --gpu-decompress --gpu-parquet-codec zstd
 ```
 
-On Linux, GPU files are read with direct IO (`O_DIRECT`) so repeated iterations measure
-storage bandwidth rather than page-cache hits.
+### cuDF
+
+cuDF has no Rust binding, so the benchmark drives it out of process: it spawns `python3` running
+`scripts/cudf-parquet-read.py`, which imports cuDF from the prebuilt `cudf-cu12` Python package,
+reads the file, and prints its timings back as JSON on stdout. Nothing links against libcudf, so
+cuDF is a runtime requirement rather than a Rust build dependency:
+
+```bash
+uv pip install --extra-index-url https://pypi.nvidia.com cudf-cu12 pandas pyarrow
+```
+
+The clock lives inside that script rather than around the subprocess, so process spawn,
+interpreter start, `import cudf` and CUDA context creation are all excluded; a warm-up read runs
+first for the same reason. The script performs several timed reads per invocation and reports the
+fastest, and the harness then takes its own minimum across `--iterations`.
+
+Both backends read a warm file by default. cuDF runs an untimed warm-up read before the timed
+one, so its timed read hits the page cache; the Vortex reader therefore does **not** use direct
+I/O by default, because `O_DIRECT` would bypass the page cache and compare a Vortex read of the
+disk against a cuDF read of RAM. `--gpu-direct-io` turns it back on to measure storage bandwidth
+instead — a different question, and the resulting ratio is not a decode comparison.
+
+The remaining asymmetry is the transfer path: the Vortex reader uses pinned buffers, while cuDF
+does its own host read and host-to-device copy.
+
+### GPU-friendly Parquet writer settings
+
+Set in `src/gpu/writer.rs`:
+
+| Setting | Value | Why |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| writer version | `PARQUET_1_0` | v1 pages compress the whole page body; v2 pages put uncompressed levels ahead of the compressed values in the same body. |
+| compression | Snappy (default) or Zstd | Snappy is the Parquet default and has the higher device-side throughput. |
+| dictionary | enabled | Keeps the decompressed payload small; the encoding GPU Parquet readers decode fastest. |
+| data page size | 1 MiB | Large enough to amortize per-page setup, small enough to keep every SM fed. Matches the page size cuDF targets. |
+| data page row limit | 1,000,000 | The 20k-row default caps narrow columns' pages far below 1 MiB. |
+| statistics | chunk-level | Page statistics only inflate the headers a reader has to walk. |
+| row group size | 1,048,576 rows | Shared with the Vortex side as `GPU_ROW_GROUP_SIZE` — see below. |
+
+### Matching physical partitions
+
+A Parquet row group and a Vortex chunk are the same thing for this comparison: the unit the
+reader plans and dispatches over. Both formats are pinned to `GPU_ROW_GROUP_SIZE`
+(1,048,576 rows, Parquet's `DEFAULT_MAX_ROW_GROUP_ROW_COUNT`).
+
+Without this the two are not comparable. Parquet reads ~1M-row row groups, while the Vortex
+side inherits the Arrow reader's ~8K-row batches — each of which becomes its own chunk, its own
+compressed blocks and its own kernel launches, so a single dispatch turns into hundreds.
+
+Setting the Arrow reader's batch size alone is not enough: the reader also breaks at the source
+file's row group boundaries, so short batches survive. `parquet_to_vortex_chunks_with_batch_size`
+therefore concatenates the source batches and re-slices them on exact boundaries. Those batches
+are written straight through as root chunks via `ChunkedLayoutStrategy`, and read back with
+`SplitBy::RowCount(GPU_ROW_GROUP_SIZE)` so a scan batch is one whole partition.
+
+### Correctness
+
+`--gpu-verify` cross-checks device output against the CPU decoders on every iteration:
+
+- Parquet: the cuDF-read frame is compared against a CPU Parquet read of the same file.
+- Vortex: each GPU-decoded field is copied back and compared against the same field decoded
+  on the CPU, through Arrow with a pinned target type.
+
+The check runs before each timed measurement and is not included in it, so a verifying run
+still publishes comparable numbers — it just takes considerably longer:
+
+```bash
+cargo run -p compress-bench --profile release_debug \
+  --features cuda,unstable_encodings -- --gpu-decompress --gpu-verify --iterations 1
+```
+
+Any `--gpu-decompress` run reports on every dataset rather than stopping at the first failure, so
+one run shows which datasets decode correctly on the GPU and which do not. The timing tables are
+rendered before the failure summary, so a dataset the GPU cannot decode still leaves the rest of
+the matrix with numbers — the process exits non-zero either way.
+
+The dataset list in `src/main.rs` therefore holds only datasets a `--gpu-verify` run has confirmed.
+Several others are waiting on `vortex-cuda` kernel gaps (`u16` in `date_time_parts`, a
+`vortex.masked` kernel, and a CPU fallback reached with device-resident buffers); they are listed
+with their reasons next to `gpu_datasets`. Add one there once its gap is closed and verification
+passes.

Subject: [PATCH 338/498] perf: Stop comparing dtypes directly in
 BoundExpression::with_children and delegate to return_dtype (#9479)

While #9445 made some small optimisations to the expression traversal it also
have done a silly thing that made wide expressions more expensive to visit

 # Analysis overview:
 # - Join base and PR benchmark rows on benchmark identity.
+# - Split each row's repeated runs into a cold run and the hot runs that follow.
 # - Use log-ratios because benchmark slowdowns/speedups are multiplicative.
 # - Treat parquet rows as controls to estimate systemic drift beta(q).
 # - Attribute the remaining change to the PR as alpha(q, c).
 # - Call a row significant only when alpha clears a conservative noise floor.
 # - Collapse those row-level results into a short verdict for the PR comment.
 #
+# Cold vs hot:
+# - The benchmark binary reports every run of a measurement in `all_runtimes`, in
+#   run order. The first run pays cold-start costs (page cache, allocator arenas,
+#   JIT-like warmup in the engines), so mixing it into a single median blends two
+#   different measurements and inflates run-to-run variance.
+# - cold runtime = the first recorded run.
+# - hot runtime = median of every run after the first.
+# - The verdict, geomeans, and per-row significance all use hot runtimes; cold
+#   runtimes are reported alongside them so a cold-start-only change stays visible.
+# - Rows without `all_runtimes` (older baselines, non-query measurements) keep the
+#   runner-reported value as their hot runtime and report no cold runtime.
+#
 # Concretely:
-# - raw ratio = median_runtime_pr / median_runtime_base
+# - raw ratio = hot_runtime_pr / hot_runtime_base
 # - log_ratio = log(raw ratio)
 # - beta(q) = mean(log_ratio) across parquet control rows for query q
 # - alpha(q, c) = log_ratio(q, c) - beta(q)

### [CVE-2026-66007](https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-66007) /
PYSEC-2026-3716

<details>
<summary>More information</summary>

#### Details
Datasets through 5.0.0, fixed in commit f989ef9, contains a path
traversal vulnerability in folder-based dataset builders where the
file_name metadata field is not properly validated before being joined
to the dataset directory. Attackers can supply crafted file_name values
with directory traversal sequences to read arbitrary local files, which
are then embedded into output when save_to_disk or push_to_hub is
called.

#### Severity
- CVSS Score: 6.9 / 10 (Medium)
- Vector String:
`CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:A/VC:H/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:X/CR:X/IR:X/AR:X/MAV:X/MAC:X/MAT:X/MPR:X/MUI:X/MVC:X/MVI:X/MVA:X/MSC:X/MSI:X/MSA:X/S:X/AU:X/R:X/V:X/RE:X/U:X`

Subject: [PATCH 341/498] Fix build for wasm32-unknown-unknown without bindgen
 (#9480)

We shouldn't unconditionally force people to use wasm-bindgen if they're
not in a js environment

fix #9475

Subject: [PATCH 342/498] Remove scalar function factory (#9499)

## Rationale for this change

Closes https://github.com/vortex-data/vortex/issues/9213

Scalar functions have distinct construction contracts, so the shared
factory exposes caller-supplied lengths and defers basic validation.

This is a purely cosmetic change.

## What changes are included in this PR?

Removes `ScalarFnFactoryExt`, restores hand-written constructors, and
migrates callers. `ScalarFnArray` now rejects the wrong arity and
missing child slots before dispatching to `return_dtype`.

## What APIs are changed? Are there any user-facing changes?

Renames `try_new_array` to `try_new` for tensor and spatial scalar
functions, while infallible functions expose `new`.
`Normalized::{try_new, new_unchecked}` and the unrelated Arrow datum
constructor are unchanged.

Subject: [PATCH 345/498] Simplify `RowFn` execution contracts (#9496)

## Rationale for this change

- Progress towards #9130
- API tracking: #9129
- Epic: #9128

Separates the mechanical `RowFn` cleanup from batch execution in #9450.

## What changes are included in this PR?

Renames the fallibility constants to the positive `INFALLIBLE` contract,
removes `RowExecution` and `DenseWithRetry`, and returns arrays directly
from the executors. The tuple guard checks every decoded view length
before unchecked row access because `ViewLen::len` returns one member
length after its debug assertion.

## What APIs are changed? Are there any user-facing changes?

Renames the unstable `RowFn::FALLIBLE` and `SinkResult::FALLIBLE`
associated constants to `INFALLIBLE`. There are no stable API changes.

From: Robert Kruszewski <github@robertk.io>
Date: Thu, 20 Aug 2026 13:26:29 +0100
Subject: [PATCH 346/498] feat(array): builders skip child canonicalization and
 append nested values in bulk [builders-child-stack] (#9064)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Collapses the first four PRs of the builders-child-stack into one
(#8964, #8966, and #9131 were closed and folded in here):

With this change all builders lose set_validity method as it's no longer
used in the codebase and there are always better ways of expressing the
desired operation

- **Append repeated and viewed lists in bulk, not a value at a time** —
bulk-append paths for repeated and viewed lists, and sparse array
canonicalisation no longer goes through scalars.
- **Builders no longer canonicalize their children** (#8964).
- **Accumulate nested builder validity without a null buffer** (#8966).
- **Append constant runs and sparse patches without slicing or
canonicalizing** (#9131) — constant structs, extensions, and fixed-size
lists append directly; sparse patches and fills append without slicing
the patch array; the fixed-size-list fill tile is built once, not once
per gap.

From: Connor Tsui <connor.tsui20@gmail.com>
Date: Thu, 20 Aug 2026 09:58:02 -0400
Subject: [PATCH 349/498] Implement `RowFn` batch execution (#9450)

## Rationale for this change

- Stacked on: #9496
- Tracking issue: #9130
- API tracking: #9129
- Epic: #9128

Connects the row execution layer to the scalar-function adapter.

## What changes are included in this PR?

Adds constant handling, strict validity propagation, dense execution,
direct valid-row execution for supporting sinks, and output validation.
A partially valid signature that cannot execute directly on valid rows
panics in this layer.

Encoding-aware reductions remain in #9347. Filter-and-scatter remains in
#9349. Owned valid-row execution and its `Default` bound are in #9500.
Nullary execution is in #9469.

## What APIs are changed? Are there any user-facing changes?

Adds execution internals within the existing `unstable_row_fns`
boundary. There are no stable API changes.

From: Connor Tsui <connor.tsui20@gmail.com>
Date: Thu, 20 Aug 2026 10:51:18 -0400
Subject: [PATCH 350/498] Execute owned RowFn outputs over valid rows (#9500)

## Rationale for this change

- Stacked on: #9450
- Tracking issue: #9130
- Epic: #9128

Adds direct valid-row execution for owned `RowFn` outputs before the
first nullable deferred owned consumer.

## What changes are included in this PR?

Adds `Default` to `OutputElement` and uses it only to initialize skipped
output positions. Batch execution masks those positions before returning
the array.

Owned infallible and deferred visits execute directly over null-tolerant
decoded inputs. Unsupported encodings continue to decline this path;
#9349 adds the later filter-and-scatter fallback.

## What APIs are changed? Are there any user-facing changes?

Extends the unstable `OutputElement` contract with `Default`. There are
no stable API changes.

Subject: [PATCH 351/498] CI: run each benchmark query in a separate process
 (#9385)

Currently all queries in a benchmark suite are run in a same process.
This is an issue for https://github.com/vortex-data/vortex/issues/9381
since
memory pressure for earlier queries influences latter queries. This in
turn
makes results very different.

Now we spawn a new process for every query. This also brings benchmark
results
closer to ClickBench.

Resolves: #9381

Subject: [PATCH 353/498] Make the default session include default encodings on
 wasm32 (#9509)

## Rationale for this change

The configuration of a default `VortexSession` has a `cfg` gate for
including multi-file scanning only on non-wasm32 targets. However, the
line that registers all default encodings is also behind that gate, but
it doesn't has to. This causes any open command with the default session
fail on wasm32, because no encodings are known.

- Realted: #9475

## What changes are included in this PR?

The change simply calls `vortex::file::register_default_encodings`
regardless of the target.

## What APIs are changed? Are there any user-facing changes?

If anyone was using a `VortexSession::default()` on `wasm32` with
`files` enabled they'll have all the default encodings included now, but
I argue that's the expected behaviour (matches other platforms).

Subject: [PATCH 354/498] Replace `ScalarFnVTable::is_fallible` with
 `is_infallible` (#9511)

## Rationale for this change

Flips the polarity of the fallibility hook so the conservative answer is
the default. A scalar function now opts in to being infallible by
overriding `is_infallible` to return `true`, instead of opting out of
the fallible default.

## What changes are included in this PR?

Renames `ScalarFnVTable::is_fallible` to `is_infallible` along with the
`DynScalarFn` and `ScalarFnSignature` mirrors, and inverts every
implementation and call site (dictionary push-down, the dict layout
pushdown split, and `ExpressionTakeRule`). Also renames the
`label_is_fallible` expression analysis to `label_infallible` so it
matches `label_strict`, and inverts its tests in place.

## What APIs are changed? Are there any user-facing changes?

`ScalarFnSignature::is_fallible` becomes `is_infallible` and
`label_is_fallible` becomes `label_infallible`, both with flipped return
values. Out-of-tree `ScalarFnVTable` implementations must rename their
`is_fallible` override and invert the result, and an override that
returned `true` can now rely on the default.

Subject: [PATCH 356/498] Increase binary benchmark workloads (#9518)

## Rationale for this change

- Progress towards: #9128

A lot of these benchmarks are way too short, and it meant that small
changes in framework overhead looked bigger than they really were.

These workloads cover the RowFn numeric operators in #9345 and primitive
comparisons in #9346.

## What changes are included in this PR?

Renames the shape matrix to implementation-neutral terms and exercises
the production binary API. Primitive cases now process at least 16,384
rows and 96 KiB of values per varying input, so narrow integer cases run
longer without increasing the existing `i64` workloads. Input
construction remains outside the measured closure.

Subject: [PATCH 359/498] Support nullary RowFn execution (#9469)

## Rationale for this change

- Tracking issue: #9130
- Epic: #9128

Keeps nullary execution separate from the numeric-kernel executor path.

## What changes are included in this PR?

Executes a nullary row kernel once for the requested row count, then
validates and returns its output. Nullary kernels bypass batch validity
handling because they have no input validity to propagate.

## What APIs are changed? Are there any user-facing changes?

Adds nullary execution within the existing unstable `RowFn` boundary.
There are no stable API changes.

### [CVE-2026-13346](https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-13346) /
PYSEC-2026-3721

<details>
<summary>More information</summary>

#### Details
pip would incorrectly handle doubly-encoded package URLs from indexes
allowing for files to be installed to arbitrary locations on disk even
when installing wheels.

This vulnerability requires downloading or installing a package from a
malicious package index to succeed, malicious packages alone are not
able to exploit this vulnerability. Note that this vulnerability only
materially impacts users running `pip download` with the `--only-binary`
option as installing source distributions from an untrusted index is
already an unsafe operation that executes code during install time.

#### Severity
- CVSS Score: 6.5 / 10 (Medium)
- Vector String: `CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:N`

Subject: [PATCH 368/498] Use dense retry for nullable row functions (#9517)

## Summary

A strict row function must not expose errors caused only by payloads
behind null rows. This adds a speculative dense-retry strategy for
kernels that can safely decode null payloads, then moves primitive
arithmetic onto `RowFn` as its first production consumer.

- Tracking Issue: #9128

## Changes

Deferred, dense-safe, decode-infallible owned kernels execute all rows
once. When reduced failure evidence reports a possible error, a partial
mask retries only the valid rows; decode, allocation, validation,
immediate-kernel, and output errors remain terminal.

Primitive add, subtract, and multiply use dense retry and reduce compact
failure evidence outside their vector loops. Integer division remains on
its immediate scalar path, and decimal arithmetic remains on the
existing columnar path.

With Rust 1.97.1 and LLVM 22.1.6, optimized AVX2 IR retains 32-, 16-,
8-, and 4-lane vector loops for the applicable widths. In the repaired
CodSpeed fixtures, `add_i64_nullable` moved from a 37.53% regression to
a 2% improvement, and `mul_i32_nullable` moved from a 36.17% regression
to a 1% improvement.

Subject: [PATCH 369/498] duckdb: MultiFileReader interface (#9383)

Migrate vortex-duckdb to use MultiFileReader interface. We need this for
four
reasons:

1. Part of our current logic (virtual columns emission and pruning,
partition
stats, file pruning) is repeated in Vortex, but duckdb has this code
written
   already, so it makes sense to reuse it.
2. Duckdb 2.0 adds async IO interface via a separate prefetch thread
pool which
   is available only with MultiFileReader.
3. We want DuckLake integration #7820 which again is implemented using
   MultiFileReader.
4. We want to support hive partitioning
   https://github.com/vortex-data/vortex/issues/7746 but implementing it
   ourselves would be tedious.

In addition to MultiFileReader-related changes, this patch:

- Adds a temporary upstream code patch with FinalizeScan call to
MultiFileReaderInterface. We need it to support aggregate scans
finalization.
Will be removed once https://github.com/duckdb/duckdb/pull/24697 is
merged
  which bundles these changes, and
- Fixes a bug in aggregate pushdown optimizer pass which changed new
columns'
  names from rewritten column ids and not from original ids.
- Fixes a memory leak of min/max values in GetStatistics passed for a
non-
  string column.
- Addes a test of multiple same accumulators for same column, namely
  `SELECT min(x), min(x)`.
- Builds vortex-duckdb code in release with `NDEBUG` so that `D_ASSERT`s
are
  discarded.

While migrating to MultiFile reader, we removed handling of:

- Emission of `file_index` column.
- Filename and `file_index`-based pruning.
- Column projections,
- Statistics accumulation, and
- Partition data/partition info callbacks.

We handle `cardinality()` callback differently now. Before the
estimation was in
Vortex only based on all files, now we estimate cardinality based on
first file
count which may be less accurate compared to the previous solution.

This change alters processing granularity from file- (partition-) based
to
split-based. As a result, we no longer need async tasks, channels and
synchronisation above. Each thread gets its own split of a file (or next
file
split if current file is exhausted) and blocks on it independently.

Resolves: #9355

+// file reader state machine. It opens Vortex files, reads their contents
+// and populates output data chunks with data from these files.
+//
+// Definitions:
+// "global lock" - lock over all threads. Only one thread may access some
+//   section.
+// "file-local lock" - multiple threads may access different File's in
+//   parallel, but only one thread can access a single File at a time.
+//
+// First there's bind phase in planning, called by one thread on first
+// file expanded from glob, to get scan schema and estimate overall scan
+// cardinality.
+//
+// `reader_open` -> `reader_bind` -> `reader_get_statistics`
+//
+// Then there's query runtime phase, called for all files in scan:
+//
+// `reader_open` -> `reader_initialize` ->
+// `reader_try_initialize_scan` -> `reader_scan`
+//
+// `reader_get_progress_in_file` is called during `reader_scan` calls from a
+// separate thread.

Subject: [PATCH 370/498] Carry partial RowFn validity with MaskValues (#9534)

## Summary

- Tracking Issue: #9128

Row batch execution resolves validity once, but the valid-row executors
repeat the check that the materialized mask is partial. Array-backed
validity stays lazy on optimistic paths because resolving it can execute
and linearly scan the full mask for the uncommon all-valid and all-null
cases.

## Changes

Matches the materialized `Mask` once and passes `MaskValues` through
valid-row visitors, owned execution, and sink execution. Marks the
all-null dense path as unreachable and documents the cost boundary on
`Validity::execute_mask`.

Subject: [PATCH 372/498] Extend MaskValuesRef to filter execution (#9542)

## Summary

- Tracking Issue: #9128

Extends `MaskValuesRef` through filter execution and the remaining
private helpers that receive a shared mask handle.

Also cleans up some code around the changes.

## Changes

Replaces `&Arc<MaskValues>` and private `&MaskValues` parameters with
`&MaskValuesRef`. Matches selection masks once in the `Filter` vtable
and DuckDB validity exporter, preserving empty-mask precedence and
existing behavior.

Subject: [PATCH 374/498] CI: don't pin NIC IRQs to housekeeping CPUs (#9568)

#6901 introduced pinning all IRQs to two housekeeping CPUs.
This is an issue for S3 tests like fineweb-s3 where network is the
bottleneck.

Don't pin NIC IRQs to housekeeping CPUs so all cores can process them.

 ```
 
 ## Reading files
 
 ```sql
 SELECT * FROM 'data.vortex';
-```
-
-Filters and projections are pushed down into Vortex, so only the columns and rows needed by the
-query are read and decompressed.
-
-```sql
-SELECT name, age FROM 'data.vortex' WHERE age > 30;
+# this syntax supports arguments like hive_partitioning=true
+SELECT * FROM read_vortex('data.vortex');
 ```
 
 ## Writing files
 
-Export data to Vortex using the `COPY` statement.
-
 ```sql
 COPY (SELECT * FROM my_table) TO 'output.vortex';
 ```
 
-## Python
+Make sure to call `LOAD vortex` before writing any files. Duckdb writes CSV
+files by default, so if Vortex extension wasn't loaded prior to `COPY`,
+`output.vortex` will be a CSV file. If you want to prevent this from happening,
+you can use `COPY ... TO 'output.vortex' (FORMAT vortex)` syntax instead which
+will fail if Vortex is not loaded.

+
+## Object storage secrets
+
+Vortex does not use DuckDB's secret storage. It uses environment variables via
+[`object_store`](https://docs.rs/object_store/latest/object_store) instead.
+
+If you want to read or write from an [S3
+bucket](https://docs.rs/object_store/latest/object_store/aws/struct.AmazonS3Builder.html),
+set the following variables:
+
+```sh

+export AWS_REGION="your_bucket_region"
+```
+
+For [Google Cloud Storage](https://docs.rs/object_store/latest/object_store/gcp/struct.GoogleCloudStorageBuilder.html),
+use a key file variable:
+
+```sh
+export GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS="my service account JSON key file"
+```
+
+For [Azure Blob Storage](https://docs.rs/object_store/latest/object_store/azure/struct.MicrosoftAzureBuilder.html),
+use
+
+```sh
+export AZURE_STORAGE_ACCOUNT="my account"

-# Vortex DuckDB
-
-Rust bindings for DuckDB. Supports DuckDB precompiled libraries for fast builds and from source builds for debugging.
-
-## Prerequisites
-
-- **Ninja**: `brew install ninja` (macOS) | `apt-get install ninja-build` (Ubuntu)
-- **CMake**: `brew install cmake` (macOS) | `apt-get install cmake` (Ubuntu)
-- **C++20 compatible compiler**: GCC or Clang
-
-## Build Modes
-
-### Default (Release)
-
-Link against the precompiled DuckDB release build.
-
-```bash
-cargo build -p vortex-duckdb
-```
-
-### Debug Build
-
-Opt into DuckDB debug build: `VX_DUCKDB_DEBUG=1`.
-
-```bash
-VX_DUCKDB_DEBUG=1 cargo build -p vortex-duckdb
-```
-
-### AddressSanitizer & ThreadSanitizer
-
-Enable both ASAN & TSAN: `VX_DUCKDB_SAN=1`.
-
-```bash
-VX_DUCKDB_DEBUG=1 VX_DUCKDB_SAN=1 cargo build -p vortex-duckdb
-```
-
-## Environment Variables
-
-| Variable          | Effect                          |
-| ----------------- | ------------------------------- |
-| `VX_DUCKDB_DEBUG` | Build from source in debug mode |
-| `VX_DUCKDB_ASAN`  | Enable AddressSanitizer         |
-
-## Running Tests
-
-```bash
-# By default, link against the precompiled DuckDB release build.
-cargo test -p vortex-duckdb
-
-# Link against the DuckDB debug build from source.
-VX_DUCKDB_DEBUG=1 cargo test -p vortex-duckdb
-
-# Link against the DuckDB debug build from source with ASAN & TSAN.
-ASAN_OPTIONS=detect_container_overflow=0 VX_DUCKDB_DEBUG=1 VX_DUCKDB_SAN=1 cargo test -p vortex-duckdb
-```
-
-## Testing the extension with DuckDB
-
-By default, our tests use a precompiled build which means you don't get an
-.extension which you can load in DuckDB. If you want to test a full setup,
-
-1. Clone [duckdb-vortex](https://github.com/vortex-data/duckdb-vortex)
-   repository.
-
-2. If there is an api difference between duckdb-vortex's duckdb submodule and
-   vortex's vortex-duckdb/duckdb submodule, checkout duckdb-vortex to previous
-   commit. For example, if duckdb-vortex's HEAD uses 1.6 API but vortex's HEAD
-   uses 1.5.2, checkout duckdb-vortex at 8a41ee6ebd9.
-
-3. Update duckdb-vortex's submodules. Replace vortex/ submodule by a softlink to
-   your local vortex repository.
-4. Inside duckdb-vortex, run make -j.
-
-./target/release/duckdb will be a duckdb instance with vortex-duckdb already
-loaded.
-
-## Testing a custom DuckDB tag
-
-Change `DUCKDB_VERSION` environment variable value to a preferred hash or commit
-(local build), or change build.rs (for testing in CI).
+# DuckDB extension for Vortex
+
+User documentation is on the [docs website](https://docs.vortex.dev/user-guide/duckdb).
+
+## Build
+
+Install `ninja`, `cmake`, and a C++20 compiler.
+
+- For debug builds, launch `VX_DUCKDB_DEBUG=1 cargo build -p vortex-duckdb`.
+- For ASAN/TSAN builds, launch `VX_DUCKDB_DEBUG=1 VX_DUCKDB_SAN=1 cargo build -p
+  vortex-duckdb`.
+- For builds against a custom DuckDB tag or commit, change `build.rs`'s
+  `DEFAULT_DUCKDB_VERSION`.
+
+## Test
+
+Our sqllogic tests use a build which links against `libduckdb.so`. This means
+you don't get an extension file to load in DuckDB. If you want to test just
+sqllogic, run `cargo test -p vortex-sqllogictest --test sqllogictests`. If you
+want to test a full setup,
+
+1. Clone [duckdb-vortex](https://github.com/vortex-data/duckdb-vortex).
+2. Update duckdb-vortex's submodules. Update vortex reference in duckdb-vortex's
+   `vortex-extension/Cargo.toml` with this Vortex checkout.
+4. Inside duckdb-vortex, run `make reldebug -j`.
+
+`./build/reldebug/duckdb` will be a DuckDB shell with Vortex linked statically.
+
+## Update extension with same DuckDB version
+
+1. Merge the PR with your changes, if any.
+2. Make a new Vortex release.
+3. Get the commit of the release, i.e.
+   `afb005379dd9a1b7dc7ae2cb49f4f465d91cc2b3` is the commit for
+   [0.85](https://github.com/vortex-data/vortex/releases/tag/0.85.0).
+4. In duckdb-vortex, update vortex reference in `vortex-extension/Cargo.toml` to
+   the release commit hash.
+5. Open a PR in duckdb-vortex, check the tests and merge it.
+6. Ensure the PR has been backported to the current release branch, i.e. for
+   duckdb 1.5.* the release branch is
+   [v1.5-variegata](https://github.com/vortex-data/duckdb-vortex/tree/v1.5-variegata).
+   This should happen automatically.
+7. Notify DuckDB maintainers in the Discord `#spiraldb` channel of the new
+   commit and ask to update the extension version. This will likely take some
+   days since they need to bump the extension version, trigger a deploy job and
+   update the artifacts on their website. Provide the commit in duckdb-vortex's
+   release branch, i.e.
+   [`5390e62`](https://github.com/vortex-data/duckdb-vortex/commit/5390e6270da964f04afbd6df4a5c9bc83a2e7880).
+8. Check `UPDATE EXTENSIONS; INSTALL vortex; LOAD vortex` in your local duckdb
+   loads the latest version.
+
+## Update duckdb version
+
+- Update the version in `build.rs`'s `DEFAULT_DUCKDB_VERSION`.
+- Create a PR with your changes and ensure it builds. Merge the PR. If your PR
+  is for a pre-release build, CI will build DuckDB from source and upload the
+  artifacts to R2 so you can reuse them locally.
+- Create a new Vortex release.
+- In duckdb-vortex, change all occurrences of old version to the new version. See
+  [1.5.5](https://github.com/vortex-data/duckdb-vortex/pull/105/changes) upgrade
+  as an example.
+- In duckdb-vortex, upgrade submodules to the new version.
+- Follow from step (3) in extension update plan.
+
+## Build artifacts storage
+
+CI uses duckdb prebuilt (`.so/.a/.dylib`) artifacts from Github releases.
+However, release downloads from Github are very unstable, and we're observed a
+~25% build rate failure when doing so. Thus we mirror release archives to R2.
+
+A job is triggered on every PR which checks artifacts are present in R2, and if
+they aren't, tries to mirror them from DuckDB Github releases via a deployment
+request. If `DEFAULT_DUCKDB_VERSION` is a hash and files weren't present, the
+job builds DuckDB from source and uploads the artifacts to R2 as well.

Subject: [PATCH 376/498] Benchmark primitive comparison across CPU features
 (#9598)

## Summary

The measurement half of #9587, split out so the numbers land before the
kernels do.

Bottom of a three-PR stack: this PR, then #9599, then #9587. Tagging
these with `#[cpu_features]` first means the walltime legs record the
portable lane kernel's throughput on `avx2`, `avx512`, and `neon` metal
as a baseline series. The kernel PR then reports against it rather than
introducing both the benchmark and the thing it measures in one diff.

## Changes

- Adds the primitive comparison cases a hand-written SIMD kernel would
have to beat: constant on the left, `u8`, `u64`, and `f32`.
- Tags those four with `#[cpu_features]`, so each walltime leg measures
them under its own build flags instead of in simulation. The existing
cases are untouched and keep their simulation series.
- `bench_compare` now carries an `ItemsCount`, so the report reads as
throughput rather than a time that only means something next to another
run over the same array length.
- Adds module docs recording why these four are tagged and the rest are
not.

Subject: [PATCH 377/498] Measure numeric arithmetic and comparison benchmarks
 per CPU feature (#9599)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

## Summary

Sweeps `#[cpu_features]` across the microbenchmarks that clearly earn
it: the binary numeric arithmetic and comparison kernels. Those are
portable lane loops — the source is identical on every target and the
vector width the compiler picks comes from the build flags — which is
the case the attribute exists for. Measuring them in simulation under
one fixed `+avx2` build hides the only variable that matters.

Middle of a three-PR stack: #9598, then this PR, then #9587. It carries
no kernel changes of its own — everything here is a benchmark attribute
— so it can be reordered or rebased onto `develop` without touching the
other two.

## Changes

Tagged:

- `binary_ops`: the primitive arithmetic cases (`add_*`, `subtract_*`,
`multiply_*`, `mul_*`, `div_i64_*`, `sub_i64_constant`, and the three
`*_shapes` matrices) and the two primitive comparison cases
(`eq_i64_constant`, `lt_i64_nullable`).
- `compare`: `compare_int`, `compare_int_nullable`,
`compare_int_constant`, `compare_int_eq`, `compare_float`.
- `scalar_subtract`.
- `lane_kernels`: `lanezip_checked_add_u32` and its
`arrow_checked_add_u32` baseline. The baseline is tagged too — comparing
the two is only meaningful under the same build flags.

Left in simulation, with the reasoning recorded in each file's module
docs:

- Decimal arithmetic and comparison: `i128` widening and per-lane
rescaling, not something a wider vector register decides.
- Boolean `and`/`or`: already word-at-a-time over a bitmap.
- String and struct comparison: dominated by view chasing and per-field
dispatch.
- Casts in `lane_kernels`: vectorization-sensitive, but out of scope
here.

Also left alone: the `between` benchmarks in `vortex-fastlanes`
(`new_raw_prim_test_between` is a raw-primitive comparison kernel and
does qualify) and the bit-packed comparison matrices. Both are `types
=`/`consts =` parameterized, which `#[cpu_features]` has no coverage for
yet, and both would fan out to dozens of walltime series. Worth a
follow-up rather than a guess in this PR.

Note that tagging moves a benchmark out of the sharded simulation job,
so these series restart on the walltime legs instead of continuing their
simulation history.

Subject: [PATCH 380/498] Let a row dispatch declare a runtime output dtype
 (#9581)

## Summary

- Tracking Issue: #9129

Right now, a row function cannot build an output whose dtype depends on
its inputs. For example, if a function can accept multiple extension
types and returns the same extension type (fn T -> T), the output type
needs to know about the input. Right now, the output sink has to do that
as well as record how to physically store this data (which may be
different from the logical data type).

This PR separates logical and physical types WRT function return. The
storage dtype (physical) is what the dispatched `OutputElement` or
`OutputSink` builds, and stays a property of the Rust type. The output
dtype (logical) is what the function returns, and each dispatch derives
it from the options and the argument dtypes.

## Changes

Adds `RowVisitor::with_output_dtype`. A dispatch calls it to declare the
dtype that the framework labels (basically just reattaches at the end)
onto the column the dispatch builds.

Batch execution applies the label in `finalize_output`, after it derives
nullability and masks the null rows.

Sinks become **physical only**. `OutputSink` loses its `Options` type
parameter, and `return_dtype` becomes a static `storage_dtype` instead.
`RowVisitor` also loses `Options` parameter.

### Limitations

There are still limitations. We still do not have a runtime-deciding
sink parameterization. For example, if we want a `FixedSizeListSink`, we
need a way for the sink to be able to represent different row widths.
This is fixed in https://github.com/vortex-data/vortex/pull/9585

The other is that for types that constrain the values of the storage
type (think UUIDv7 or even certain decimal types), we do not validate
the storage values are correct (which maybe is fine). Additionally,
there will need to be extra logic for things that have more complex
wrapping logic (decimal would be the main example), but it's not a huge
blocker.

## API Changes

- `OutputSink<Options>` becomes `OutputSink`
- `return_dtype(&Options) -> VortexResult<DType>` becomes
`storage_dtype() -> DType`
- `RowVisitor<Options>` becomes `RowVisitor` and gains
`with_output_dtype`.

Subject: [PATCH 382/498] feat: sequence cast compute (#8403)

## Summary
This PR fixes `SequenceArray` casts where internal arithmetic needs to
use a different type than the declared output dtype.

Previously, `SequenceArray` effectively used the same primitive type for
both internal arithmetic and for exposing values. That broke cases like
a negative-step signed sequence cast to an unsigned dtype, where every
generated value still fits the unsigned output type.

Sequence operations now compute using that internal arithmetic type
while materialized arrays and scalars are exposed using the array output
dtype.

Added regression coverage for casts where `scalar_at` must return a
scalar matching the array output dtype rather than the internal
arithmetic type.

Closes: #5102

## API Changes
None

## Review Feedback

Based on review feedback, this PR avoids storing an extra
`calculation_ptype` in `SequenceMetadata`.

Instead, it determines a normalized arithmetic type from the sequence
values:
`i64` when either `base` or `multiplier` is signed, otherwise `u64`.


## Testing
For testing code changes

```sh
cargo nextest run -p vortex-sequence
cargo +nightly fmt --all
cargo clippy --all-targets --all-features
```

For testing the build
```sh
cargo build --workspace
```

## AI tools Disclosure
Used ChatGPT for understanding code and OpenCode for updating callers
and generating tests

Subject: [PATCH 384/498] fix: update the delta snapshot (#9608)

## Summary

Fixes:
https://github.com/vortex-data/vortex/actions/runs/32849513434/job/97806878852

Updates the snapshot now that both delta cost estimation issues are
fixed. Now that the delta estimation is accurate, pco is correctly
picked by compressor and results in better compression ratio.

Subject: [PATCH 386/498] Add physical parameters to OutputSink (#9585)

## Summary

- Tracking Issue: #9129

This adds a physical-parameters channel to `OutputSink` and stacks on
#9581, completing runtime logical and physical output selection
separately.

## Changes

`OutputSink::Params` now flows through sink visits, validation, and
allocation. For example, `FixedSizeListSink` (new) uses an
options-derived runtime width with safe complete-row initialization.

## API Changes

The unstable row-function API now requires sink parameters for
`visit_into` and `visit_prepared_into`; sinks that need none just use
().

Subject: [PATCH 387/498] duckdb: forbid aggregations and filter pushdowns over
 virtual columns (#9238)

Virtual columns like hive-partitioned ones are generated by Duckdb so we
can't evaluate filters on them. Forbid pushdown of these to filters and
forbid aggregations over them.

Allow pushdown on file_row_number since it's a normal column.

Subject: [PATCH 390/498] refactor(vortex-spatial): execute distance with RowFn
 (#9616)

## Summary

Move spatial distance execution onto the generic null-aware RowFn path
and keep row-operation fallibility independent from input-decoder
fallibility.

## Changes

- add a GeometryRow input element that decodes native geometry columns
into geo-types geometries
- preserve null-row safety by filtering invalid rows before geometry
decoding and scattering placeholders back into the row-aligned column
- implement SpatialDistance through RowFn dispatch and mark its distance
operation infallible
- keep GeometryRow decoding fallible and remove the RowFn contract check
that incorrectly coupled the two flags
- document the distinction between RowFn::INFALLIBLE and
InputElement::DECODE_INFALLIBLE
- cover nullable MultiPolygon distance execution with a regression test

## Testing

- cargo +nightly fmt --all
- cargo nextest run -p vortex-array scalar_fn::unstable::row (33 passed)
- cargo nextest run -p vortex-spatial (248 passed)
- cargo clippy -p vortex-array -p vortex-spatial --all-targets
--all-features
- cargo test --doc -p vortex-array (94 passed)

Subject: [PATCH 391/498] Add `sum_v2` with SQL empty-input semantics (#9590)

## Summary

- add `SumV2` with the distinct `vortex.sum_v2` ID and an explicit `{
sum, is_overflow, is_empty }` partial
- return null for empty or all-null input and for integer or decimal
overflow, while preserving valid zero sums
- register a specialized grouped primitive kernel and route pushed
DuckDB `SUM` through `SumV2`
- keep legacy `Sum`, `Stat::Sum`, file statistics, zoned compatibility,
`Mean`, and `list_sum` unchanged
- update DuckDB SQL logic expectations for all-null sums

This implements the follow-up direction from #9113 after its revert in
#9324. It introduces a new aggregate ID instead of changing the
serialized contract of `vortex.sum`. It follows the compatibility
direction explored in #8705, using the requested `sum_v2` name and
migrating the DuckDB pushed aggregate.

Subject: [PATCH 392/498] Avoid single-chunk grouped accumulator states (#9597)

## Summary

- return the sole grouped partial state directly from
`GroupedAccumulator::flush`
- preserve the existing `ChunkedArray` fallback for zero or multiple
partial states

This avoids routing single-batch grouped aggregate finalization through
a one-chunk wrapper and its optimizer pushdown.

Subject: [PATCH 393/498] docs: filter pushdown is connected, not future work
 (#9637)

The guide called filter pushdown unconnected and "planned future work".
It was connected in #7785:
`VortexScanBuilder` implements `SupportsPushDownV2Filters` and the
converted expression reaches
native code as the `ScanOptions` filter, so a developer reading this
plans around a limitation that
no longer exists.

The Future Work section keeps the `Source` trait migration, which is
still outstanding.

## Tests

`make -C docs html` succeeds under the repo's `--fail-on-warning`, same
warning count as develop.

## AI assistance

Written with agentic AI assistance; I traced the pushdown path end to
end before editing.

Subject: [PATCH 394/498] docs(java): replace the Java API example that no
 longer compiles (#9635)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

The only Java example on the docs site cannot compile:
`dev.vortex.api.File` and
`dev.vortex.api.Array` were removed in #7527, and the page has not been
touched since. Nothing in
it points at the API that replaced them.

Replaced with the read path that exists today — `Session` →
`DataSource.open` → `scan` →
`Partition.scanArrow` — following the same loop the JNI tests use.

## Tests

Compiled both snippets as a scratch class under `vortex-jni/src/test`:
the published one fails with
five `cannot find symbol` errors for `File` and `Array`, the new one
compiles. `make -C docs html`
succeeds under the repo's `--fail-on-warning`.

## AI assistance

Written with agentic AI assistance; I compiled the replacement snippet
before publishing it.

Subject: [PATCH 395/498] refactor: simplify array optimizer (#9634)

## Summary

Cleans up optimizer fixpoint and session parent-reduce dispatch without
changing rule order or behavior.

## Changes

Names the iteration limit and moves session-kernel dispatch into a
focused helper. Session kernels still run before static parent rules and
in registration order.

Subject: [PATCH 398/498] refactor(runend): clarify filter implementation
 (#9633)

## Summary

Cleans up RunEnd filtering without changing its selection policy or
output.

## Changes

Names and documents the take thresholds, clarifies the fast path and
run-end reconstruction, and preserves the bulk popcount and branchless
write paths. The optimized x86-64-v3 and x86-64-v4 LLVM IR and assembly
were checked, and the generated filter path is identical before and
after.

Subject: [PATCH 399/498] feat(bench): add Arrow IPC benchmark baselines
 (#9624)

Add `arrow-ipc` as an on-disk format in the compression-size,
compression-throughput, and random-access benchmark suites.

Compression benchmark runs emit Arrow IPC file sizes, serialization and
deserialization timings, and decoded in-memory Arrow bytes as
`uncompressed_bytes`. Random-access runs read row-addressable Arrow IPC
files.

The decoded Arrow byte count supplies logical throughput and
compression-ratio estimates. The Arrow IPC rows remain file-format
results. The develop workflow emits these records across the existing
dataset matrix.

+Measures compression and decompression throughput, plus resulting file sizes, for Vortex,
+Parquet, uncompressed Arrow IPC, and optionally Lance.
+
+[Arrow IPC](https://arrow.apache.org/docs/format/Columnar.html#ipc-file-format) is Apache
+Arrow's built-in file format, formerly called Feather V2. This suite writes it without
+optional buffer compression. Its timings therefore isolate serialization and deserialization
+without codec cost. Its file size provides the approximately 1x baseline for compression
+ratios. Parquet provides the established reference for a compressed columnar representation.
+
+The suite covers NYC taxi data and several
 [Public BI](https://github.com/cwida/public_bi_benchmark) tables (Arade, Bimbo,
 CMSprovider, Euro2016, Food, HashTags), TPC-H `l_comment` variants, and synthetic nested
 data. This is the workload behind the `Compression` PR comment.

Subject: [PATCH 400/498] Pack Boolean RowFn output directly (#9620)

## Summary

- Tracking Issue: #9128

Lets infallible RowFn output types collect directly from a validated row
source. Boolean output uses `BitBuffer::collect_bool` instead of
materializing an intermediate `Vec<bool>`.

This is the first layer of the stack. Constant inputs follow in #9628.

## Changes

Adds a default `OutputElement::build_from` implementation and a Boolean
override that writes the packed bitmap. A dedicated
`execute_owned_infallible` route uses it when all inputs have validated
non-constant views. Constant and valid-only execution keep their
existing `Vec` paths.

Tests cover packed values and nullability, bitmap word boundaries,
nullary input, and skipped invalid rows. A focused Divan benchmark
covers `i32` and `i64` Boolean output with varying inputs and both
constant orientations.

With rustc 1.98.0 and LLVM 22.1.8 targeting x86-64 AVX2 with 16 CGUs and
no LTO, the varying-input loop now emits vector compares, `vpmovmskb`,
and a direct packed-word store. The `develop` control writes unpacked
Boolean bytes to a temporary vector before packing them.

## API Changes

Adds `OutputElement::build_from`. Implementations must evaluate every
source row exactly once in order, return the same values as `build`, and
cannot introduce value-dependent errors or panics.

Periodic update to DataFusion

## What changes are included in this PR?
1. Bump Arrow to 59.2
1. Bump DF to 55.0.0 (https://github.com/apache/datafusion/issues/22393)
2. Bump geoarrow dependency (requires release to support Arrow 59)

~ Currently this PR also includes bumping our MSRV to 1.95 because
`geoarrow` requires that (DataFusion only requires 1.94) ~ Now
https://github.com/vortex-data/vortex/pull/9334.

## What APIs are changed? Are there any user-facing changes?

Just the dependency changes

Subject: [PATCH 402/498] Add filter-and-scatter RowFn execution (#9521)

## Overview

Progress towards #9128.

Adds a private correctness fallback for partially valid `RowFn` batches.
Direct skip-invalid execution remains the first choice. If an input
decoder cannot safely decode the original null rows, or an output sink
cannot initialize skipped rows, batch execution filters every input to
the jointly valid rows, runs the ordinary dense kernel, and scatters the
compact output back to the original row domain.

```text
[A, null, B] -> filter -> [A, B] -> execute -> [x, y] -> scatter -> [x, null, y]
```

## Why filter and scatter

The direct path already invokes the row function only for valid rows.
However, it must create each Rust-native input view and the full-length
output sink before entering that loop. Some representations cannot
create a safe view over unspecified payloads behind nulls. Some sinks
also have no meaningful value with which to initialize a skipped row. In
either case, simply changing the loop to visit rows one at a time does
not provide the missing input or output representation.

Calling the general scalar API once per valid row would work, but it
would repeat array execution and scalar construction in the hot loop. A
prepared, type-specific selected-row view is a better possible fast path
for types that can support one. It is not a complete generic fallback
because it does not solve skipped output initialization and needs a
fallible per-row access contract for representations such as geometry.

Filter and scatter is not treated as an optimization. Filtering can
materialize nested or compressed inputs, and scattering allocates
original-length take indices. The executor uses it only after direct
execution declines.

<details>
<summary>Directional ARM strategy comparison</summary>

Measured on an Apple M4 Max with Rust 1.98.0, `target-cpu=native`, the
bench profile, and 100 Divan samples. Values are two-run average medians
in microseconds. Lower is better.

| Workload | Existing geometry placeholder | Generic filter/scatter |
Prepared selected-row prototype |
| --- | ---: | ---: | ---: |
| Nullable point distance | 20.11 | 17.85 | 15.16 |
| Nullable polygon contains | 40.15 | 44.71 | 49.09 |
| 90% null polygon contains | 11.47 | 12.12 | 7.67 |
| Two 50%-valid operands | 13.77 | 14.66 | 7.63 |
| Dense polygon contains | 32.62 | 33.31 | 48.25 |

The prototype confirms that selected-row decoding can win for sparse
validity. It is also 45% slower than filter/scatter on the dense polygon
control and 10% slower on the ordinary nullable polygon case. This
supports keeping selected-row decoding as an optional direct capability
instead of making it the general execution model.

These are directional ARM results, not x86 runtime measurements.

</details>

## Validation

- Covers invalid payloads behind nulls, including row zero.
- Covers sinks without skipped-row initialization.
- Covers dense retry, runtime sink parameters, zero-width fixed-size
lists, and logical extension output dtypes.
- Preserves the direct valid-row fast path.
- Passes the RowFn test suite, `vortex-array` doctests, formatting, and
workspace clippy with all targets and features.

+//! Fallback execution for row kernels that cannot operate on the original partially valid inputs.
+//!
+//! Direct skip-invalid execution retains the original row domain: it decodes every input column,
+//! initializes a full-length output, and visits only valid rows. Some input representations cannot
+//! decode unspecified payloads behind nulls, and some output sinks cannot initialize rows that the
+//! kernel skips. In either case, there is no safe row loop to enter over the original columns.
+//!
+//! This fallback filters every input to the valid row domain before decoding it. The ordinary
+//! kernel then produces a compact, all-valid output. A take with nullable indices scatters those
+//! values back to the original row domain and restores its nulls.
+//!
+//! Filtering and scattering add columnar work around the row loop. Filtering nested or compressed
+//! inputs can also materialize their selected representation. Batch execution therefore tries
+//! direct skip-invalid execution first and uses this path only when a required capability is
+//! unavailable.
+//!
+//! A prepared, type-specific view can provide selected-row decoding without filtering. That is an
+//! optional direct-execution capability rather than a replacement for this fallback: it requires a
+//! representation with safe selected access, and it does not initialize an output sink that cannot
+//! represent skipped rows. Calling the general scalar-extraction API once per valid row is also not
+//! equivalent because it repeats array execution and scalar construction inside the row loop.

Subject: [PATCH 404/498] Map constant RowFn inputs directly (#9628)

## Summary

- Tracking Issue: #9128

#9620 lets Boolean output collect results directly into a packed bit
buffer, but only when every input varies by row. A RowFn constant is
stored as one decoded value instead of a `row_count`-element view, so
one constant input still forces an intermediate `Vec<bool>`:

```text
before: (column, column)   -> BitBuffer
        (column, constant) -> Vec<bool> -> BitBuffer

after:  either input shape -> BitBuffer
```

This PR does not add constant handling. It makes the direct output
collector usable with the constant handling RowFn already has. Depends
on #9620.

## Changes

Adds a private indexed source over decoded `ArgColumn`s. Each argument
reads either row `index` or its single decoded constant, while the
source still reports the logical batch length expected by
`OutputElement::build_from`.

The row-or-constant choice remains visible to the optimizer before
traversal, which preserves direct packed Boolean stores. Tests cover
both constant positions, all-constant input, and nullary execution.

## API Changes

Clarifies that `InputElement::view` must produce the same row values as
`InputElement::get` for every addressable index.

Subject: [PATCH 405/498] refactor(vortex-spatial): execute geo kernels with
 RowFn (#9623)

## Overview

Depends on #9521.

Moves the remaining Rust `geo`-backed spatial scalar functions onto
RowFn. This removes the bespoke geometry execution adapters and leaves
constant handling, strict null propagation, input decoding, output
construction, and validity restoration with the shared executor.

`GeometryRow` now provides only its ordinary fallible decoder. It does
not manufacture placeholder geometries for null rows or expand the
shared `InputElement` API. On a partially valid batch, direct valid-row
execution declines and #9521 filters every input to the jointly valid
rows before geometry decoding.

## Implemented

- Migrates area, contains, intersects, convex hull, and length to RowFn.
- Preserves constant bounding-box prechecks for contains and intersects.
- Keeps length on native LineString and MultiLineString storage.
- Adds native MultiLineString support to ST_Length.
- Removes the bespoke geo-types execution layer.

## Execution choice

A prepared selected-row geometry view was prototyped separately. It was
substantially faster for sparse validity, but slower for ordinary
nullable predicates and about 45% slower than filter-and-scatter on the
dense polygon control. It also needs fallible per-row access for empty
geometry representations. The generic fallback is therefore the
correctness baseline, while a selected-row view remains a possible
optional fast path. The comparison and full rationale are documented in
#9521.

## Validation

- `cargo nextest run -p vortex-spatial`: 245 passed.
- `cargo clippy -p vortex-spatial --all-targets --all-features -- -D
warnings`.
- `cargo test --doc -p vortex-spatial`.
- `cargo +nightly fmt --all -- --check`.

Subject: [PATCH 408/498] Use indexed sources for fallible constant rows
 (#9629)

## Summary

- Tracking Issue: #9128

`RowFn` handles constant inputs so row kernels do not need separate
execution paths for each input shape. #9628 adds an indexed source for
infallible execution, but fallible `execute_owned` still uses a separate
loop whenever any input is constant. That loop selects between row and
constant values on every iteration, duplicating the traversal and hiding
the fixed batch input shape from LLVM.

Depends on #9628.

## Changes

Extends the decoded indexed source to fallible `execute_owned` calls.
Each source validates its decoded length and fixes its row-or-constant
behavior before traversal, allowing every input shape to use
`map_checked_into` without changing output initialization or deferred
failure handling.

This removes the separate `LaneZip` branch. Optimized x86 IR preserves
the vector loop while reducing the focused deferred Boolean executor by
27% and the deferred `i64` executor by 19%, with the same bounds-panic
sites. Tests cover a constant left-hand input, and the focused benchmark
covers varying inputs and both partial-constant orientations.

Subject: [PATCH 410/498] Avoid iterative drop for shallow expression trees
 (#9657)

Use recursive drop for shallow expressions.

While in general iterative drop might be necessary it's only required
for deep trees.

Subject: [PATCH 411/498] Use `SumV2` in `list_sum` (#9621)

## Summary

- use `SumV2` for `list_sum` return-type resolution and grouped
accumulation
- remove the redundant validity/range pass that masked empty and
all-null lists
- preserve SQL-style null, overflow, and NaN semantics through `SumV2`
state

Subject: [PATCH 413/498] fix(bench): stabilize random access timing modes
 (#9631)

PR #9385 added an OS cache drop before each random-access benchmark
combination. That change exposed page-cache state in cached mode. It
caused large run-to-run variance, especially for Lance
`feature-vectors/correlated`.

This PR defines the two random-access modes explicitly. Cached mode
performs a one-second untimed warm-up before measurements. The warm-up
establishes a consistent cached baseline after each OS cache drop.

Reopen mode includes file open and metadata parsing inside every timed
iteration. Both modes prepare missing benchmark data before timing. This
also fixes `-footer` measurements that previously excluded their
advertised open cost.

Subject: [PATCH 414/498] feat(bench): store hot and cold random access
 benchmark results (#9649)

## Summary

Store both cached-accessor and per-take reopen timings from the random
access benchmark. The benchmark already runs both modes, but v3
reporting discards reopen results. This prevents the benchmark site from
comparing the two access paths.

## Changes

Add `open_mode` to random-access v3 records and Postgres ingestion.
Cached records preserve historical measurement IDs. Reopen records use
distinct IDs. Focused producer, snapshot, and measurement-ID tests cover
the field.

 # vortex-spatial
 
-Spatial data types and layouts for Vortex. This crate is the Vortex equivalent of the
-[GeoArrow](https://github.com/geoarrow/geoarrow-rs) series of crates.
+This crate is where Vortex's spatial support lives. It defines GeoArrow-compatible geometry types backed by regular Vortex arrays. It also contains the spatial compute functions and chunk-pruning rules used by the DuckDB integration.
 
-You can import this crate into your application to add support for reading and writing spatial
-vector data as part of Vortex files.
+The format is still experimental. Spatial fields written today use the draft
+`spatial2026.08.0` edition, which may change before it is frozen. Any session that reads or writes these fields must be initialized with this crate.
+
+## How geometry is stored
+
+A native geometry column is an extension array. The extension dtype says what the values mean, and the storage is made from normal Vortex structs and lists:
+
+| Vortex dtype | GeoArrow type | Storage |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| `vortex.st.point` | `geoarrow.point` | `Struct<x, y[, z][, m]>` |
+| `vortex.st.linestring` | `geoarrow.linestring` | `List<coordinate>` |
+| `vortex.st.multipoint` | `geoarrow.multipoint` | `List<coordinate>` |
+| `vortex.st.polygon` | `geoarrow.polygon` | `List<List<coordinate>>` |
+| `vortex.st.multilinestring` | `geoarrow.multilinestring` | `List<List<coordinate>>` |
+| `vortex.st.multipolygon` | `geoarrow.multipolygon` | `List<List<List<coordinate>>>` |
+| `vortex.st.box` | `geoarrow.box` | `Struct<xmin, ymin[, ...], xmax, ymax[, ...]>` |
+| `vortex.st.wkb` | `geoarrow.wkb` | `Binary` |
+
+Coordinates are stored as separate, non-nullable `f64` fields named `x`, `y`, and optionally `z` or `m`. Nullability belongs to the geometry row. `SpatialMetadata` stores the coordinate reference system (CRS) string.
+
+## Setting up a session
+
+Call `initialize` before using spatial data with a session:
+
+```rust
+let session = vortex_array::array_session();
+vortex_spatial::initialize(&session);
+```
+
+This registers the geometry dtypes, Arrow converters, scalar functions, AABB statistic, pruning rules, and spatial edition. It is safe to call more than once. The DuckDB, JNI, and benchmark sessions already call it during setup.
+
+## Compute functions
+
+Spatial functions are lazy: applying one creates a `ScalarFnArray`, and the work happens when that array is executed. Binary functions accept constants as well as columns, and the two operands do not need to have the same geometry type.
+
+| Function | Input | Output | Notes |
+| --- | --- | --- | --- |
+| `vortex.st.area` | any native geometry | `f64` | Unsigned planar area |
+| `vortex.st.collect` | `List<Point>`, `List<LineString>`, or `List<Polygon>` | matching multi-geometry | Collects within each row; it is not an aggregate |
+| `vortex.st.contains` | two native geometries | `bool` | OGC containment; argument order matters |
+| `vortex.st.convex_hull` | `MultiPoint` | `Polygon` | Two-dimensional convex hull |
+| `vortex.st.distance` | two native geometries | `f64` | Euclidean distance |
+| `vortex.st.envelope` | any native geometry | `Box` | Two-dimensional bounding box |
+| `vortex.st.intersects` | two native geometries | `bool` | Boundary contact counts as intersection |
+| `vortex.st.length` | `LineString` or `MultiLineString` | `f64` | Euclidean length |
+| `vortex.st.make_line` | two `Point` values | `LineString` | Keeps the points in argument order |
+
+Null geometry arguments produce null results. `collect` also ignores null elements inside a valid list row, matching DuckDB.
+
+Most functions that need a general geometry algorithm use the row-function adapters in `src/scalar_fn/row.rs`. They decode valid rows to `geo_types` and call the `geo` implementation. `length`, `envelope`, `make_line`, and `collect` work directly on the nested Vortex arrays. Use the structural path when it avoids unnecessary decoding or needs to preserve extra ordinates; otherwise, the row-function path is simpler.
+
+Avoid per-row `scalar_at` or validity lookups in either path. Materialize coordinates, offsets, and validity once for the batch.
+
+## Chunk pruning
+
+`GeometryAabb` computes the two-dimensional axis-aligned bounding box (AABB) of a geometry column. The writer stores it as the default zone statistic for native geometry columns.
+
+The current rules can prune:
+
+- positive `ST_Intersects(geometry_column, constant_geometry)` filters when the boxes are disjoint;
+- `<`, `<=`, `>`, and `>=` comparisons on
+  `ST_Distance(geometry_column, constant_geometry)` using box-distance bounds.
+
+These proofs are conservative. If the expression has a different shape, the constant is null or empty, or the file has no AABB statistic, the chunk is kept. Box overlap alone never proves that two geometries intersect.
+
+## Interoperability and limits
+
+Arrow import and export use the standard GeoArrow extension names and preserve CRS metadata. Native import only supports separated coordinates; interleaved GeoArrow arrays are rejected.
+
+DuckDB uses WKB for general geometry values. Its Vortex expression lowering converts supported WKB constants to native scalars and pushes `ST_Contains`, `ST_Distance`, and `ST_Intersects` into a Vortex scan.
+
+Some important limits:
+
+- Geometry calculations are planar. The crate does not transform coordinates or apply geodesic corrections based on the CRS.
+- Geometry calculations use `x` and `y`. Structural operations can preserve `z` and `m`: `ST_Collect` reuses the input storage, and `ST_MakeLine` preserves and promotes point dimensions.
+- There is no native `GeometryCollection` or mixed-geometry union type so far.
+- WKB columns cannot be passed to the native compute functions or AABB pruning.
+- AABB statistics prune chunks; they are not a spatial index or spatial-join implementation.
+
+When adding a serialized dtype or statistic, register it in `initialize` and add it to `src/editions.rs`.
+
+## Tests and benchmarks
+
+```bash
+cargo nextest run -p vortex-spatial
+cargo test --doc -p vortex-spatial
+```
+
+Each compute-function family has a focused benchmark under `benches/`. For example:
+
+```bash
+cargo bench -p vortex-spatial --bench distance
+```
+
+The extension types follow the type and metadata model from the
+[GeoArrow project](https://github.com/geoarrow/geoarrow-rs).

Subject: [PATCH 418/498] Conditionally slice elements to selected index bounds
 before filtering wide list arrays (#9679)

## Summary

Avoid expanding ListArray element masks over large unselected prefixes
and suffixes. For lists averaging more than 1,024 elements per sublist,
filter the child slice spanning the first through last selected list
instead of the complete element range.

## Example

Suppose a ListArray contains eight sublists with 2,000 elements each,
and the outer filter selects rows 3 and 4. The existing path expands the
mask across all 16,000 child elements. This change slices elements
6,000..10,000 and expands the mask across only those 4,000 elements.

If the selected rows span the complete element range, the optimization
keeps the existing full-range path.

Subject: [PATCH 419/498] Pack Boolean RowFn output directly (#9626)

## Summary

- Tracking Issue: #9128

Adds packed Boolean output paths to `RowFn`, so dense infallible and
deferred kernels can build a canonical `BoolArray` without first
collecting one byte per row. Generic outputs and valid-row fallback
execution keep their existing paths.

## Changes

Adds dedicated Boolean executors for `visit_bool`,
`visit_deferred_bool`, and `visit_prepared_deferred_bool`, with explicit
opt-in to runtime multiversioning.

LLVM normally removes the chunk-local `[bool; 64]`. [LLVM
#219235](https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues/219235) tracks the
remaining AVX-512 mask conversion.

## API Changes

Adds `RowVisitor::visit_bool`, `RowVisitor::visit_deferred_bool`, and
`RowVisitor::visit_prepared_deferred_bool`. Each method takes a const
`MULTIVERSIONED` flag: `false` inlines the collector, while `true`
selects a collector for the current CPU at runtime.

From: Connor Tsui <connor.tsui20@gmail.com>
Date: Fri, 28 Aug 2026 22:00:20 -0400
Subject: [PATCH 420/498] Decode RowFn constants directly (#9680)

## Summary

- Tracking Issue: #9128
- Depends on #9626

Adds a constant-specific representation to `InputElement`, so batch
constants no longer become one-row decoded columns.

## Changes

`decode_constant` retains the logical batch length while primitive and
Boolean inputs extract one native value. Complex inputs can keep
ordinary column decoding behind the same hook.

## API Changes

Adds `InputElement::Constant`, `decode_constant`, and `get_constant`.

Subject: [PATCH 421/498] Trim constant-operand cases from scalar function
 benchmarks (#9696)

## Summary

- Tracking Issue: #9128

The scalar function benchmarks carried 37 cases with a constant operand,
34 of them tagged `#[cpu_features]` and so measured on three walltime
legs each. Decoding a constant operand, orienting it, and carrying its
validity are shared across operators, element types, and output modes,
so most of those cases measure the same path again and crowd out the
per-row against per-row shape the kernels are tuned for.

Or in other words, just reduces the # of constant benchmarks we have.
Ideally we would keep this, but because they are so noisy we might as
well just remove them.

## Changes

Keeps 10 constant cases as a regression guard on that path, 8 of them
tagged, and makes per-row against per-row the default shape everywhere
else.

Subject: [PATCH 422/498] Clarify Boolean collection code generation (#9676)

## Summary

Clarifies the callback contract and code-generation behavior of
`BitBuffer::collect_bool`, including the remaining AVX-512
mask-to-bytes-to-mask conversion tracked by [LLVM
#219235](https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues/219235).

## Changes

Documents when to use the inlined and runtime-multiversioned collectors,
and replaces the duplicate `BitBufferMut` explanations with links to the
canonical `BitBuffer` documentation.

Subject: [PATCH 424/498] docs(vx): state which inspection commands support
 --json (#9638)

`query.md` said all inspection commands support `--json`. `vx segments`
has no such flag (it always
prints JSON) and `vx tree array` accepts it then prints a human tree, so
a script trusting it breaks
either way. Wiring `vx tree array` changes CLI output, so that is left
for an issue.

Also adds `query` and `segments` to the `vx` README, which listed four
of six subcommands.

## Tests

`make -C docs html` succeeds under `--fail-on-warning`, same warning
count as develop.

## AI assistance

Written with agentic AI assistance; I read each command's argument
struct first.

Subject: [PATCH 425/498] docs(spark): refresh the user guide against the
 shipped connector (#9607)

The user guide still named `0.78.0`, seven releases behind the `0.85.0`
on Maven Central, so copying the `--jars` URL or the dependency snippet
pulled a stale JAR. `java/vortex-spark/README.md` had drifted too.

Three things the page omits although they ship: `MapType` (covered by
`testWriteAndReadMapColumns`), filter pushdown
(`SupportsPushDownV2Filters` since #7785), and Azure paths
(`fs.azure.account.key*` is forwarded from the Hadoop config).

## Tests

`make -C docs html` succeeds under the repo's `--fail-on-warning`, same
warning count as develop; the documented 2.13 URL returns HTTP 200.

## AI assistance

Written with agentic AI assistance; I verified each claim against the
code it describes.

Subject: [PATCH 428/498] feat(ffi): add vx_scalar_new_extension for
 extension-typed literals (#9691)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

## Summary

- Tracking Issue: #9689

The C API can build scan predicates against primitive, utf8, binary and
decimal columns, but not against extension columns: none of the scalar
constructors can express a value of an extension type, and the compare
kernel deliberately refuses to compare an extension column with a bare
storage-typed literal (`Extension`'s `CompareKernel` requires both sides
to share the extension dtype — correctly, since e.g. timestamps in
different units must not compare raw storage).

For date and timestamp columns this leaves FFI consumers unable to push
a
time window into a scan. In a .NET binding, a "series between two dates"
query over a date32 column currently has to decode each selected series'
full history and trim client-side; on a 219k-row query over an 18 MB
file
we measured 521 ms for that pattern against 473 ms for an equivalent
Parquet reader pruning by row-group statistics. Everything else in the
chain already works — the engine compares extension constants
efficiently
by extracting the storage scalar. The missing piece is only a way to
construct the literal through the C API.

## Changes

Adds `vx_scalar_new_extension(dtype, storage, err)`: builds an
extension-typed scalar from an extension dtype and a scalar of its
storage dtype (compared ignoring nullability; the value is copied and
neither argument is consumed). Validation is delegated to
`Scalar::try_new`, with explicit errors for a non-extension dtype and a
storage-dtype mismatch.

Callers obtain the extension dtype from the data source's schema or via
`vx_dtype_from_arrow_schema`, build the storage value with an existing
primitive constructor (e.g. `vx_scalar_new_i32` for a day-precision
date), wrap it, and pass the result to `vx_expression_literal` in a scan
predicate.

Unit tests cover the happy path (day-precision date over i32 storage,
dtype round-trip through `vx_scalar_dtype`) and both rejection paths
(non-extension dtype; mismatched storage dtype). Header regenerated via
the nightly cbindgen path in build.rs.

Codex:

## Summary
- fall back to canonical primitive export for unsigned `SequenceArray`
values in DuckDB
- keep signed sequences on DuckDB native sequence vectors
- add coverage for unsigned `u64` sequence export

## Tests
- `cargo +nightly fmt --all`
- `cargo test -p vortex-duckdb exporter::sequence -- --nocapture`
- `cargo clippy -p vortex-duckdb --all-targets --all-features`

Subject: [PATCH 431/498] feat(duckdb): report per-file column statistics from
 the vortex COPY writer (#9471)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

## Rationale for this change

DuckDB's COPY hook `copy_to_get_written_statistics` lets a writer return
`WRITTEN_FILE_STATISTICS`. The vortex COPY function didn't implement it,
so `COPY … (FORMAT vortex, RETURN_STATS)` failed at bind (`RETURN_STATS
is not supported for the "vortex" copy format`) and callers such as
DuckLake could not record per-column statistics or enforce `NOT NULL` on
vortex columns.

- Closes #7819

## What changes are included in this PR?

- Implement `copy_to_get_written_statistics` for the vortex COPY
function, following the parquet writer's
store-pointer-then-fill-at-finalize pattern. This makes `COPY … (FORMAT
vortex, RETURN_STATS)` work.
- Per file: `row_count`, `file_size_bytes`. Per column: `min`/`max`,
`null_count`, `num_values`, `has_nan` (float columns), and
`column_size_bytes` (on-disk compressed size; excludes bytes not
attributable to a column, so per-column sizes do not sum to the file
size). Only top-level columns are reported — the footer exposes one
statistics set per top-level field.
- Statistics are read from the `WriteSummary` that `copy_to_finalize`
previously dropped; no file is re-opened. A scalar-conversion failure is
surfaced through the copy function's error channel rather than swallowed
as "no statistics".
- e2e tests drive `COPY … RETURN_STATS` through DuckDB and assert the
returned file statistics (including that nested struct/list columns do
not crash the hook); a plain `COPY` without `RETURN_STATS` is unchanged.

## What APIs are changed? Are there any user-facing changes?

Yes — `COPY … (FORMAT vortex, RETURN_STATS)` starts working (previously
a bind-time error). Internally, two new C FFI entry points and two FFI
structs; `vortex.h` is regenerated. No public Rust API changes.

Subject: [PATCH 432/498] Avoid materializing constant structs for get_item
 (#9716)

## Summary
- add a Constant/GetItem reduce-parent rule that extracts only the
requested struct field scalar
- preserve GetItem output dtype/nullability by casting the selected
scalar to the parent dtype
- add a regression test for selecting from a wide, million-row constant
struct while keeping the result constant-encoded

## Tests
- cargo +nightly fmt --all
- cargo test -p vortex-array
test_get_item_constant_struct_stays_constant
- cargo test -p vortex-array arrays::constant
- cargo clippy --all-targets --all-features

Subject: [PATCH 433/498] duckdb: propagate per-file "partition" stats (#9639)

This couldn't be done previously since we didn't have ordering of files
for threads. Since migration to MultiFileReader, we now have
well-defined
batch indices.

Propagate per-file partition stats to duckdb. MultiFileSession already
caches
footers by file path, so we can use this information. This change makes
Clickbench Q0 and Q6 constant (supplied from metadata) from second
iteration.

Use crate's REGISTRY instead of own one.

Resolves: #3393

 Vortex files contain several kinds of serialized **component**: array encodings, layout encodings, extension dtypes, and

+unrestricted. It does not register missing readers, so files written this way have no edition compatibility guarantee.
+
+Compression and edition compatibility are separate. Compressors produce current in-memory arrays and do not select a

+A frozen edition never changes: neither its membership list nor the meaning of its component IDs may be altered.
+Introducing a new serialized object or a reader-visible revision requires a new edition; it is never added
+retroactively to an existing edition. A component supplied by an optional plugin creates that edition in the plugin's
+independently versioned family.
+
+Core-maintained objects do not enter `core` directly. When an object is ready for users to try and its wire format is
+believed complete, it enters a draft edition in an independently versioned family. Publishing that edition is a
+format-stability commitment, not the start of format design: the serialized contract should change only when absolutely
+necessary to resolve a problem found during testing. After successful testing, the same object ID and wire contract move
+into a new `preview` edition for broad opt-in use, and later into a new `core` edition for use by default.
+
+A new stable `core` or plugin edition may freeze in the release of its origin project in which it first ships. Until
+that release is cut, its version is not known and the declaration keeps `min_library_version: None`. After the release
+is cut, the declaration is updated with that newly released version, usually during development of the next release.
+This backfills the documented minimum library version; it does not delay the freeze or its read-forever compatibility
+guarantee.
 
 A component may later be deprecated, meaning that writers stop using it. Readers must continue to support it, so
 deprecation does not invalidate existing files.
 
+Writer behavior evolves independently from the in-memory representation. A change that an old reader must distinguish

 ## How serialized components evolve
 
 Editions govern serialized components, not in-memory representations. An in-memory representation may gain capabilities
-or be replaced without changing an edition. On read, the plugin registered for a component ID constructs the current
-in-memory representation. On write, the implementation selects a component that can represent the value and is allowed
-by the selected editions.
+or be replaced without changing an edition. Each in-memory array plugin owns the mapping between that representation and
+its wire history:
 
-An in-memory representation often has a single serialized component and uses the same ID in memory and on disk, but this
-is not required. Multiple component IDs may deserialize into the same in-memory representation. Editions constrain the
-ID stored in the file, because that is what the reader must understand.
+- the serialized IDs its deserializer recognizes;
+- one serializer that returns the appropriate lossless variant as an ID, metadata, buffers, and children; and
+- a deserializer that receives the exact ID found in the file and constructs the current in-memory representation.
 
-### Compatible evolution keeps the ID
+An in-memory representation often has one serialized ID equal to its in-memory encoding ID, but this is only the simple
+case. Editions constrain the ID stored in the file, because that is what an old reader can recognize.
 
-A component may keep its ID only if changes to its wire format are both **backward and forward compatible**: a new
-reader must correctly interpret data from an old writer, and an old reader must correctly interpret data from a new
-writer. For example, adding an optional field is compatible only if old readers can safely ignore it and new readers use
-the correct default when it is absent.
+### Reader-visible evolution requires a new ID
 
-Compatible evolution may broaden what the wire format accepts, but it cannot change the meaning of data that existing
-readers already accept. Removing or repurposing a field, redefining existing bytes, and requiring information that old
-writers did not provide are all incompatible changes.
+Any new form that an old reader does not already understand uses a new serialized ID. This includes additive metadata or
+children when an old reader would accept the ID but reject or misinterpret the new combination. The ID is the capability
+tag: readers do not consult the edition or negotiate a separate version while decoding an array.
 
-### Incompatible evolution requires a new ID
+Keeping an ID is safe only when the emitted representation remains within that ID's existing frozen contract. A writer
+may choose a different but already-valid encoding of the same contract, and a reader may fix a bug or normalize the old
+form into a newer in-memory structure. Neither action expands what the wire ID means.
 
-An incompatible revision is a new component, with a new ID, registry entry, and edition membership. The old component
-remains in the registry and must remain readable. The in-memory representation need not change: it can read and write
-both components, choosing between them based on the value and the selected editions.
+A new wire ID does not normally require a second in-memory array. The current plugin registers every historical ID,
+serializes the current value under the oldest allowed lossless one, and deserializes all of them into the current type.
+The old ID remains registered forever. If the compressor and serializer cannot preserve one common in-memory

+## The `preview` family
+
+The additive `preview` family is the shared opt-in set for core-maintained components whose serialized contracts have
+survived independent testing but are not yet available to the default core writer. Preview currently contains no
+components. Adding the first component will create a later preview edition; unrelated work remains in independent
+families until it meets the preview compatibility bar.
+
+## Independently versioned component families
+
+Components that are ready for focused testing but are not yet ready for the shared preview set advance through their own
+families. Optional modules use families such as `tensor`, `zstd`, `spatial`, and `json`. Each family can evolve without
+coupling its chronology or selection to unrelated components.
+
+The wire format is expected to be complete when its first draft edition is published and should change only when
+necessary to resolve an issue discovered during testing. If a correction changes what readers must understand, give the
+corrected representation a new ID and add a later edition to the same family. Once testing establishes that an object is
+ready for broad opt-in use, promote that same ID and serialized contract into a new `preview` edition. Later adoption by
+the default writer promotes it into a new `core` edition.
+
+The default writer does not emit a component merely because its reader understands it. Users opt in by enabling the
+edition containing that component.
+
+## Declaring, freezing, and the edition records
+
+The default declarations live in `vortex-edition/src/declarations/`, while optional-module declarations live in their
+owning crates. Each declared edition is exported as a TOML record under `vortex/editions/`, grouped by family. A record
+names the origin library or project whose releases `min_library_version` refers to. Draft records omit that field and
+carry no read-forever guarantee. Regenerate the records by running:
+
+```sh
+cargo run -p xtask -- generate-editions
+```
+
+Changing the declarations follows the edition's lifecycle:
+
+1. **Create a new family and edition for every new object.** Never add an unrelated serialized
+   object or reader-visible revision to an existing family. A revision advances the family that
+   owns its earlier ID.
+2. **Publish test-ready work as a draft.** When an object is ready to be tried and its format is
+   believed complete, give it a wire ID and add it to a draft edition in its family. Change that
+   format only when necessary to resolve an issue found during testing; a reader-visible
+   correction gets another ID and a later edition in the same family.
+3. **Promote the tested contract to preview.** Once it is ready for broad opt-in use, add the same
+   object ID and wire contract to a new additive `preview` edition. Promotion must not redesign
+   the format.
+4. **Promote the adopted contract to core.** Once it is ready for use by the default writer, add
+   the same object ID and wire contract to a new `core` edition with `min_library_version: None`
+   and regenerate its draft record, then ship it in a release. The edition freezes as part of that
+   release. Its minimum library version cannot be populated yet because the release version is not
+   known until the release is cut.
+5. **Backfill the released version.** After cutting the release, set `min_library_version` to that
+   newly released Vortex version — the version that first shipped readers for every member — and
+   regenerate the records, converting the draft record into a frozen record. This update usually
+   lands during development of the next release, but it documents the freeze that already
+   happened; it does not freeze the edition later.
+6. **Never touch it again.** A frozen record is immutable: CI (`cargo run -p xtask -- check-editions`) rejects any
+   change that edits, renames, unfreezes,
+   or deletes a frozen record, and rejects new editions that do not extend their family's
+   chronology. To change what writers may emit, declare the next edition instead.

Subject: [PATCH 435/498] perf(buffer): store alignment exponents (#9730)

## Summary

Store `Alignment` as its base-2 exponent instead of a `usize`.

## Changes

- Shrink `Alignment` from 8 bytes to 1 byte.
- Remove `Deref` and convert to bytes explicitly with `as_usize()`.
- Keep the accepted alignments and serialized exponent unchanged.

Subject: [PATCH 436/498] perf(fastlanes): borrow unpack inputs (#9731)

## Summary

Reduce FastLanes bit-packed decode overhead independently of buffer
allocation changes.

## Changes

- Borrow packed slices and caller-owned unpack scratch.
- Keep scratch out of the iterator struct and reuse it across chunks.
- Walk fused compare blocks without an unused unpack buffer.

Subject: [PATCH 438/498] Add `Utf8` types for `RowFn`  (#9715)

## Summary

- Tracking issue: #9128

Adds `Utf8` column and view types for the `RowFn` framework.

(This is getting upstreamed from
https://github.com/spiraldb/spiraldb/pull/6858)

## Changes

Adds `Utf8Column` and `Utf8View` as `InputElement` and decode targets
for use in Vortex.

We should figure ou tif we want to ship a string library with Vortex
(since there is not equivalent string library in Arrow)

From: Robert Kruszewski <github@robertk.io>
Date: Wed, 2 Sep 2026 21:06:36 +0100
Subject: [PATCH 439/498] Optimize RunsOn CI and prebuilt fallbacks (#9734)

## Summary

- right-size general RunsOn CI jobs and broaden use of the new spot
runner classes
- run CPU fuzzers on an 8-vCPU Graviton runner with four libFuzzer
processes
- use prebuilt Rust and LLVM for ARM fuzzing while retaining conditional
installation fallbacks
- reconcile Rust toolchains, components, targets, mold, protoc, and
sccache against the AMI
- avoid redundant WASM target and coverage-package installation

Requires vortex-data/.github-private#29 to land first so the new runner
aliases exist.

## Validation

- strict `yamllint` on all changed workflow/action files
- reconciliation fast-path and missing-toolchain shell tests
- `git diff --check`

Subject: [PATCH 440/498] feat(buffer): add allocator-backed storage (#9668)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

## Summary

Add allocator-backed storage to `vortex-buffer`.

Design: vortex-data/rfcs#65

## Changes

- Use `allocator_api2` for owned buffers.
- Keep external buffers zero-copy.
- Preserve runtime alignment and `bytes`/Arrow interop.
- Add allocator-aware constructors and tests.

## API Changes

Owned buffers no longer use `bytes::Bytes` as storage. The `bytes` crate
remains for interop.
`Buffer::into_inner` is now `Buffer::into_bytes`.

## Allocation benchmarks

Local medians on an Apple M5 Max with Rust 1.98.0:

```console
cargo bench -p vortex-buffer --bench allocation -- --max-time 2 --sample-count 500
```

| Operation | Size | Vortex | Vortex custom allocator | Bytes | Arrow |
| --- | ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: |
| allocate + drop | 1 KiB | 14.7 ns | 17.0 ns | 19.1 ns | 21.7 ns |
| allocate + drop | 16 KiB | 18.5 ns | 20.6 ns | 17.8 ns | 20.6 ns |
| allocate + drop | 64 KiB | 77.9 ns | 81.8 ns | 76.6 ns | 83.8 ns |
| allocate + freeze + drop | 64 B | 33.6 ns | 35.6 ns | 36.2 ns | 37.2
ns |
| allocate + freeze + drop | 256 B | 34.3 ns | 36.6 ns | 33.3 ns | 35.6
ns |
| take ownership of `Vec` + drop | 64 B | 22.9 ns | N/A | 7.7 ns | 20.6
ns |
| take ownership of `Vec` + drop | 1 KiB | 29.1 ns | N/A | 17.0 ns |
29.4 ns |
| take ownership of `Vec` + drop | 64 KiB | 56.1 ns | N/A | 38.8 ns |
46.0 ns |

The custom allocator's `Arc` adds about 2–4 ns per allocation lifecycle.
Normal mutable allocation
is comparable across the three implementations. Vortex and Arrow eagerly
allocate shared backing
metadata when taking ownership of a `Vec`; Bytes keeps a promotable Vec
representation and is
about 12–15 ns faster for small buffers.

The custom allocator column does not apply to `Vec` ownership. Rust's
`Vec` uses the global
allocator, so zero-copy adoption must retain that allocator for
deallocation. Moving its contents
to a custom allocator would require a copy and would measure a different
operation.

Vortex normally prefers 256-byte alignment. The checked-in suite also
measures Vortex with only
the requested alignment to separate alignment padding from ownership
overhead.

Subject: [PATCH 441/498] refactor(array): use buffer allocator in execution
 context (#9669)

## Summary

Add a buffer allocator to execution and I/O contexts.

## Changes

- Store `BufferAllocatorRef` in `ExecutionContext`.
- Use it for chunked canonicalization.
- Allocate file and object-store reads with the caller allocator.
- Remove the old array memory allocator wrapper.

Subject: [PATCH 442/498] Bloom filter implementation (#9398)

## Rationale for this change

<!--
Why are you proposing this change, and what is its impact?
Is it part of a long term effort, or a bigger change?

If this PR is related to a tracked effort or an open issue, please link
to the relevant issue.
-->

This is part of a bigger issue around skip indexes but only focuses on
the Bloom filter implementation:

- https://github.com/vortex-data/vortex/issues/8901

## What changes are included in this PR?

<!--
No need to duplicate information from the previous section, but if
you're touching many
parts of the code base, its worth explicitly noting the important
changes or how they are tested.
-->

This is a continuation of a previous PR that already implements a
simpler version of a bloom filter:
https://github.com/vortex-data/vortex/pull/8933.

Most of the changes included in this PR are replacing the hand-rolled
bloom-filter from the base PR with the [split block bloom
filter](https://arxiv.org/pdf/2101.01719), and expanding support for
more canonicals and constants. So far it supports bool, primitives,
decimals, varbinview, and extensions, and this PR leaves out composable
types out of the implementation (struct, list and so on).

<!--
Are there any user-facing changes that might require documentation
updates
Is any public API changed?
-->

## About the code

The Bloom filter implementation is a translation from the [paper source
code](https://arxiv.org/pdf/2101.01719), given that it is very short I
thought it wouldn't be a big deal. The code doesn't use arch-y fn calls,
but relies on the compiler optimizer for vectorizing/calling the correct
assembler expression, which from my checks on godbolt, seems to get
translated well. I could have gone into specializing the code into
different architectures but keeping it as is seemed better for
maintenance.

### Accumulators

Bloom filter's accumulators for canonicals are very similar to those of
the min/max aggregation fn. I used those implementations as a reference
for manipulating each case, with some slight variations.

Invalid values are left out of Bloom filters. Only valid values apply.
Accumulating an invalid value will just skip it, but asking for a scalar
that is invalid will raise a `VortexError`.

### Options/tuning

The Bloom filter has a single tuning option called `blocks_count`. The
more blocks, the more memory/space usage (per zone), but the fewer false
positives. Defaults to 256 (8KiB p/zone), derived from the default
amount of 8192 rows in a zone. The paper suggests keeping between 20 and
52 distinct hash values per block. Assuming all 8,192 values are
distinct, choosing 32 values per block gives 8,192 / 32 = 256 blocks
(low false positive rate: ~3%).

Another approach could be to use statistics from a subset of the data,
as is done with encoders, to select the best block count. I think this
approach aligns with how Vortex encoders work, but it shouldn't be part
of this PR, as it may depend on how the skip index writer is designed.

### Hasher crate

This PR also includes a new crate `twox-hash` that implements XxHash,
similar to how Parquet uses the same hasher for the same use case, but
it relies on vendored code. Happy to change or look for alternatives.

## Pending tasks

- [x] Microbenchmarks
- [x] Goldenfile
- [x] Salt-order check
- [x] Define hashing fn (`XxHash3_64` vs `XXH64`)
- [x] More docs in source

+/// A Bloom filter is an approximate membership query structure.
+/// In Vortex layouts, it helps determine if a value is probably
+/// present in a single-column zone.
+///
+/// Because membership is approximate, the filter can produce false positives
+/// but never false negatives. In other words, it can report that
+/// an absent value is present in a zone, but it never excludes a zone containing the value.
+/// The false-positive probability depends on the number of distinct values
+/// and the filter configuration.
+///
+/// ### Implementation
+///
+/// Implementation is based on the Split block Bloom Filter (SBBF),
+/// a Bloom filter variant that is cache-friendly and takes advantage of SIMD.
+/// As a tradeoff, it is less space-efficient than a traditional Bloom filter.
+///
+/// The filter is made up of 256-bit blocks, where each block "splits" into eight sections.
+/// When a zone writer inserts a value, the value gets hashed and assigned to a block.
+/// And then a mask derived from the hash and applied to the assigned block.
+/// For more details about the process, see [Insertion](#insertion) for how a block
+/// is selected and updated. For the actual implementation code, refer to [BloomPartial].
+///
+/// ### Representation
+///
+/// The internal state is represented as `blocks: Vec<[u32; 8]>`, with each block
+/// containing its eight splits/sections.
+///
+/// An empty filter looks as follows:
+///
+/// ```text
+/// ┌──────────────────┬─────┬──────────────────────┐
+/// │ block 0 [u32; 8] │ ... │ block N -1 [u32; 8]  │
+/// ├──────────────────┼─────┼──────────────────────┤
+/// │ 00000...00000    │ ... │ 00000...00000        │
+/// └──────────────────┴─────┴──────────────────────┘
+/// ```
+///
+/// If we zoom in on a particular block it would look like this:
+///
+/// ```text
+/// ┌────────────────┬─────┬────────────────┐
+/// │ split 0 [u32]  │ ... │ split 7 [u32]  │
+/// ├────────────────┼─────┼────────────────┤
+/// │ 00000...00000  │ ... │ 00000...00000  │
+/// └────────────────┴─────┴────────────────┘
+/// ```
+///
+/// ### Insertion
+///
+/// During insertion, the value to insert gets hashed into a 64-bit value.
+/// From the resulting hash, the upper 32 bits are used to select a block,
+/// while the lower 32 bits are used to create the mask.
+///
+/// ```text
+///                    hash [u64]
+///            10100...11000_00011...11011
+///                         │

+/// ```
+///
+/// The mask has the same structure as a block, but with one bit set for
+/// each of its eight splits.
+///
+/// The following action is to OR the mask and block together, turning those bits on
+/// without changing any bits that were already set:
+///
+/// `block = block OR mask`
+///
+/// And this is how the updated block fits back into the filter:
+///
+/// ```text
+/// ┌────────────────┬─────┬────────────────┐
+/// │ split 0 [u32]  │ ... │ split 7 [u32]  │
+/// ├────────────────┼─────┼────────────────┤
+/// │ 10000...00000  │ ... │ 00000...00100  │
+/// └────────────────┴─────┴────────────────┘
+/// ```
+///
+/// Bloom filter block visualised (splits flattened):
+///
+/// ```text
+/// ┌─────┬────────────────────────────────┬─────┐
+/// │ ... │ block 4                        │ ... │
+/// ├─────┼────────────────────────────────┼─────┤
+/// │ ... │ 10000...00100                  │ ... │
+/// └─────┴────────────────────────────────┴─────┘
+/// ```
+///
+/// ### Serialization
+///
+/// Serialization is simple, it is just flattening the blocks `Vec<[u32; 8]>`
+/// into `Vec<u8>`. So the only difference is that the blocks boundaries
+/// are now implicit, while the bits remain the same.
+///
+/// To deserialize, it is just enough to split the byte sequence into 32-byte blocks.
+///
+/// ```text
+/// ┌────────────────────────┬─────┬────────────────────────────────┐
+/// │ bytes 0..32            │ ... │ bytes (N - 1) * 32..N * 32     │
+/// ├────────────────────────┼─────┼────────────────────────────────┤
+/// │ block 0: 8 x u32 (LE)  │ ... │ block N - 1                    │
+/// └────────────────────────┴─────┴────────────────────────────────┘
+/// ```
+///
+/// ### Notice
+///
+/// Only valid (non-null) scalar values are stored in the filter.

+/// The filter stores hashes of byte representations of values. `Scalar`
+/// values are converted to their underlying bytes before insertion. Other

+/// stored in the filter.

+/// variant from the xxHash family.
+///
+/// Usage example:
+///
+/// ```rust
+/// use vortex_array::dtype::{DType, Nullability};
+/// use vortex_layout::layouts::zoned::aggregates::bloom_filter::{BloomFilter, BloomOptions};
+/// use vortex_array::aggregate_fn::AggregateFnVTable;

+//! [ScalarFnVTable] implementation for Bloom-filter zone pruning.
+//!
+//! The bloom filter has two main access points,
+//! `insert` and `contains`. Insert happens during writes,
+//! while for pruning `contains` exposes if a zone contains
+//! a value or not.
+//!
+//! This file also contains a simple equality [StatsRewriteRule] that
+//! uses `falsify` for pruning.

Subject: [PATCH 443/498] Avoid row index canonicalization for trivial masks
 (#9717)

## Summary
- skip row-index filtering/canonicalization when the scan mask is all
true, preserving the `SequenceArray` through expression application
- return an empty `u64` canonical array directly for all-false masks
- add regression coverage for the all-true and all-false row index array
future paths

Stacked on #9720, which handles unsigned `SequenceArray` export for
DuckDB.

## Tests
- `cargo +nightly fmt --all`
- `cargo test -p vortex-layout row_idx_array -- --nocapture`
- `cargo test -p vortex-layout layouts::row_idx -- --nocapture`
- `cargo clippy -p vortex-layout --all-targets --all-features`
- `cargo test -p vortex-sqllogictest --test sqllogictests --
slt::duckdb::duckdb/projection_expression_pushdown.slt --nocapture`

Subject: [PATCH 444/498] Avoid materializing constant structs for select
 (#9718)

## Summary
- add a constant-struct fast path in Select::execute before forcing the
child to StructArray
- project the single struct scalar and wrap it back as a ConstantArray
for the original row count
- add a regression test for selecting fields from a wide, million-row
constant struct while keeping the result constant-encoded

## Tests
- cargo +nightly fmt --all
- cargo test -p vortex-array execute_constant_struct_stays_constant
- cargo test -p vortex-array select
- cargo clippy --all-targets --all-features

Subject: [PATCH 445/498] Push get_item through wrapper arrays (#9719)

## Summary
- push GetItem through Filter wrappers as Filter(GetItem(child), mask)
- push GetItem through Slice wrappers as Slice(GetItem(child), range)
- push GetItem through Masked wrappers as Mask(GetItem(child),
masked_validity)
- add regression tests for all three wrapper cases

## Tests
- cargo +nightly fmt --all
- cargo test -p vortex-array scalar_fn::fns::get_item::tests

Subject: [PATCH 446/498] refactor(decimal): dispatch numeric kernels on one
 storage width (#9756)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

`checked_decimal_arrays` is generic over the working width (6 types) and
the operator (4), so there are 24 copies of the outer function. Inside
each copy, a `match_each_decimal_value_type!` on the lhs storage type
nests another on the rhs storage type, so every copy contains 36
`checked_lanes` closures. The 24 outer functions plus their 24 × 36= 864
closures make instantiations.

The nesting exists because a `DecimalArray`'s storage width is
independent of its precision, so two operands sharing a `DecimalDType`
may still be stored at different widths.

Instead, this PR dispatches on a single storage width. A mismatched pair
is first widened to the wider of the two with the existing
`widened_buffer` (zero-copy when they already match), and the lane loop
then runs once per (working width, operator, storage width) with the
same inline checked cast as before.

Mono items in `vortex-array` (`cargo +nightly rustc -p vortex-array
--lib -- -Zprint-mono-items`):

| | before | after |
|---|---:|---:|
| `checked_decimal_arrays` | 888 | 168 |
| `numeric::decimal::*` module total | 1,372 | 652 |
| `lane_kernels::*` total | 15,544 | 9,694 |
| whole crate | 100,083 | 93,513 |

Matched-storage inputs take the code path they did before, so the
`binary_ops` decimal benchmarks are unchanged within noise.

Subject: [PATCH 448/498] Benchmark RowFn filtered fallback (#9736)

## Summary

- Tracking Issue: #9130
- Comparison target: #9645

Adds a focused baseline for the RowFn fallback under comparison.
`FilteredI64` declares `DENSE_SAFE = false`, so partially valid inputs
select valid-only execution, and it declines null-tolerant decoding, so
direct valid-row execution is unavailable. The remaining path is
filter-and-scatter on `develop` and filtered-row execution with #9645.

## Changes

Benchmarks owned and sink outputs with all-valid, one-null-in-eight, and
nine-nulls-in-ten inputs. The partial-validity cases force the fallback,
while the all-valid cases bypass it as unchanged controls. All cases run
on the native AVX2, AVX-512, and NEON CodSpeed legs.

Subject: [PATCH 451/498] duckdb: fast footer key (#9733)

Avoid converting absolute paths for duckdb footers into Vortex-internal
state
if they don't have special characters. This saves four string
allocations per
key.

Also, remove "ordered" flag while constructing a scan since it wasn't
used internally anyway.

A couple of micro-optimizations on top of that:

- Allow convering an extension scalar to its storage primitive. Since
most extension types are Temporal (which are backed by a Primitive) this
  is a reasonable shortcut that's also useful for FileStatistics.
- Avoid extra allocation in parsing Footer.

Subject: [PATCH 452/498] docs(vortex-layout): mark the bloom filter aggregate
 as unstable (#9753)

## Summary

- Tracking Issue: #8901

The bloom filter aggregate from #9398 does not have a settled wire
format. The hash function, the block layout, and the salt order can all
still change, and no edition declares `vortex.bloom_filter.sbbf`, so
nothing must write bloom partials into a file yet.

## Changes

Adds a `Stability` section to the `BloomFilter` doc comment saying that
the aggregate is unstable and that `vortex.bloom_filter.sbbf` partials
must not be persisted. Comment only, no behavior change.

Subject: [PATCH 453/498] cache DTypes parsed from flatbuffers (#9765)

In clickbench queries, duckdb_reader_open accounts for 13% CPU time of
the scan.
This is because for every file's field for every file Vortex parses
DType from
a flatbuffer.

This change adds a cache of DTypes parsed from flatbuffers so among
multiple
query iterations parsing is done exactly once per field

Subject: [PATCH 454/498] test(compat): add a map.vortex backward-compatibility
 fixture (#9463)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

## Rationale for this change

`vortex.map` joined the frozen `core2026.08.0` edition at Vortex 0.84.0,
which makes its layout a backward-compatibility promise, but the compat
fixture suite has no map file — nothing pins how a map is written, so
the weekly `compat-validation` run has nothing to check and a future
reader change could silently break every map file written today. The gap
isn't map-specific: `vortex.masked` (frozen since 0.54.0) and
`vortex.variant` (frozen since 0.65.0) also have no fixtures, and I'll
send those separately.

## What changes are included in this PR?

One new fixture, `map.vortex`, in the synthetic array set. It carries a
`map<i32, utf8?>` with `keys_sorted = false` including an empty row and
a row that repeats a key, since duplicate keys are representable and
have to survive in order rather than being deduplicated; a `map<utf8,
i64>` with `keys_sorted = true`; and a nullable `map<i32, utf8?>` that
keeps a null map distinct from an empty one and holds a present key with
a null value. The existing `roundtrip_fixtures_to_bytes` test picks the
fixture up automatically, and `vortex-compat generate` followed by
`check --mode exact` passes on all 36 fixtures. Worth flagging for
review that `build()` is immutable once published, so this content can
be added to later but not amended — the cases are the part to
scrutinise.

Subject: [PATCH 456/498] fix(vx): stop advertising --json on 'vx tree array'
 (#9780)

`vx tree array` declares `--json` but binds it to `_json` and prints the
human-readable tree
unconditionally, so a JSON consumer parses prose and sees exit 0. The
flag has been dead since
#5642 introduced it; the sibling `vx tree layout` honours it.

`docs/getting-started/query.md` already documents `--json` as supported
by `vx inspect` and
`vx tree layout` only, so this drops the flag rather than inventing a
JSON schema for the array
tree.

Behaviour change: `vx tree array f.vortex --json` now fails with a clap
usage error instead of
silently printing the human-readable tree.

## AI assistance

Agentic AI assistance; I checked the flag has been unwired since #5642
and that the new test fails
when it is restored.

From: Adam Gutglick <adam@spiraldb.com>
Date: Mon, 7 Sep 2026 12:56:50 -0400
Subject: [PATCH 458/498] perf(datafusion): Only wrap stream in prunable stream
 when predicate can still change (#9788)

## Summary

If we know the file pruner won't change anymore, we don't need to wrap
the returned stream in a `PrunableStream` that keeps checking the
predicate on every poll.

Subject: [PATCH 464/498] Fix path WORK_DIR path normalization in SLT tests
 (#9790)

## Summary

DF shows file paths sometimes with a leading `/` and sometimes without
it, so path normalization was slightly broken. This PR fixes it and
changes some of the code paths that use `<slt:ignore>` to use the
expanded variable.

Subject: [PATCH 466/498] Assert logical and physical plans for TPC-H SLT tests
 (#9789)

## Summary

This PR improves the TPC-H SLT test suite for our DuckDB and DataFusion
integrations.

## Changes

1. Test both engines, each with their own results as they return
slightly different types and format them differently.
2. Assert actual results against Parquet, using a shared setup.
3. In addition to actual query results, assert plans for both engines,
making it easier to see the impact of optimizations like statistics and
projection and predicate pushdown.

For DuckDB I used the JSON output because it seems to be the one best
suited for git diffs, but its also very verbose.

+The generated Vortex and Parquet data lives under `slt/tpch/data/` (git-ignored). Both formats
+are required; regenerate older fixtures if they only contain Vortex files. If either format is
+missing, the TPC-H tests are reported as **ignored**, so the rest of the suite still runs. The TPC-H
 `.slt` files load their tables through paths relative to the crate root, so run the tests via
 `cargo nextest`/`cargo test`, which set the working directory accordingly.
 
+TPC-H scripts live under `slt/tpch/datafusion/` and `slt/tpch/duckdb/`. Each engine has its own
+`create.slt.no`, `results/q1.slt.no` through `results/q22.slt.no`, and `drop.slt.no`. Its `tpch.slt`
+runs these against Vortex and asserts EXPLAIN output from `plans/q1.slt.no` through `plans/q22.slt.no`.
+Its `parquet.slt` runs the same queries against the original Parquet fixtures and checks the same
+expected results. DataFusion uses external tables; DuckDB uses views over files. The `FILE_FORMAT`
+substitution variable selects the format in each engine's table setup.
+
 Because the harness is `libtest-mimic`-based, the standard test flags work, including
 `cargo nextest`, filtering, and listing:

Subject: [PATCH 467/498] Split SplitBy::Layout into Layout and
 LayoutSubSplitting variants (#9043)

Allow configuring and disabling sub splitting of layout chunks. While
for majority of encodings this is beneficial there are cases where it
leads to duplicate work

Subject: [PATCH 469/498] feat: CMake integration for `vortex-ffi` &
 `vortex-cpp` (#9774)

## Summary

Make the C and C++ CMake builds self-contained by having CMake build the
Rust FFI archive through Cargo instead of requiring a separate `cargo
build` and manually locating its output.

This adds source-tree CMake targets suitable for vendored downstream
projects:

```cmake
add_subdirectory(path/to/vortex vortex)

target_link_libraries(c_target PRIVATE Vortex::ffi_static)
target_link_libraries(cpp_target PRIVATE Vortex::cpp_static)
```

 C++ Quickstart
 ==============
 
-Vortex C++ API allows you to read and write ``.vortex`` files directly or via
-an Arrow compatibility layer like `nanoarrow <https://arrow.apache.org/nanoarrow/>`_.
-The only dependency apart from Vortex is ``nanoarrow``.
+The C++ API reads and writes ``.vortex`` files, with optional Arrow interoperability
+through `nanoarrow <https://arrow.apache.org/nanoarrow/>`_.
 
 .. note::
-   C++ API is a work in progress. Please reach out to us if you are interested
-   in using Vortex from C++ or you want a feature not covered yet e.g.
-   extension support.
+   The C++ API is still evolving. Please reach out if you need a missing feature.
 
-Installation
-------------
+Building from source
+--------------------
 
-We don't provide prebuilt library files (yet) so you will need to build Vortex
-from source, and for that you will need:
-
-- C++20,
-- Rust toolchain,
-- and CMake 3.10.
+Vortex currently provides source builds only, for GNU/Linux x86_64/aarch64 and
+macOS arm64. You need a C compiler, a C++20 compiler, CMake 3.25+ with a single-config
+generator, and Cargo/rustc 1.95+ on ``PATH``. Repository checkout:
 
 .. code-block:: bash
 
     git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/vortex-data/vortex
     cd vortex
-    cargo build --release -p vortex-ffi
 
-    cmake -S lang/cpp -Bbuild -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release
-    # To build the examples, pass -DBUILD_EXAMPLES=1
-    # cmake -S lang/cpp -Bbuild -DBUILD_EXAMPLES=1
+    cmake -S lang/cpp -B build/cpp \
+      -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release \
+      -DVORTEX_BUILD_EXAMPLES=ON
+    cmake --build build/cpp --parallel
 
-    cmake --build build -j
+CMake builds the Rust FFI through Cargo. No separate ``cargo build`` is needed.
+The first build may download dependencies. The commands above enable the examples
+used below. Tests and examples are otherwise disabled by default.
 
-This produces a shared and a static library which you can use directly or via
+To embed Vortex in a CMake project, vendor or fetch a pinned checkout and link its
+target:
 
 .. code-block:: cmake
 
-    # static library
-    target_link_libraries(target PRIVATE vortex_cxx)
-    # shared library
-    target_link_libraries(target PRIVATE vortex_cxx_shared)
+    add_subdirectory(path/to/vortex vortex)
+    target_link_libraries(target PRIVATE Vortex::cpp_static)
+
+The target includes the required headers and link dependencies. Vortex builds
+static, position-independent libraries, with no installation rules or
+``find_package(Vortex)`` package. If embedding it in a shared library, keep Vortex
+symbols private using the parent's export policy.
 
-Have a look at the `examples
-<https://github.com/vortex-data/vortex/tree/develop/lang/cpp/examples>`_
-directory as well.
+See the `C++ README
+<https://github.com/vortex-data/vortex/blob/develop/lang/cpp/README.md>`_ for build
+options, platform limits, sanitizers, and CUDA deployment requirements, and the
+`examples directory
+<https://github.com/vortex-data/vortex/tree/develop/lang/cpp/examples>`_ for complete
+programs.

-# Language Bindings Evolution
-
-This document describes the evolution strategy for Vortex's language bindings. It covers the
-current state, architectural principles, open questions, per-language migration plans, and a phased
-roadmap. For the tier model and API surface definitions, see the
-[Language Bindings](../developer-guide/language-bindings.md) developer guide page.
-
-## Current State
-
-| Language      | Technology | API Surface                                                                              |
-|---------------|------------|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
-| Rust          | Native     | Full access (Tier 3). All array plugins, compute plugins, layouts, and extension DTypes. |
-| Python        | PyO3       | Near Tier 2. Native expression construction, array access, file I/O.                     |
-| C             | cbindgen   | Tier ~1. File I/O, basic scan, Arrow stream export.                                      |
-| C++           | cxx        | Tier ~1. Wraps Rust via cxx bridge. File I/O and scan.                                   |
-| Java (JNI)    | JNI        | Tier ~1. Arrow-based file I/O and basic scan via JNI.                                    |
-| Java (Panama) | Panama FFI | Not yet implemented. Target Tier 2 via direct C ABI access. Requires JDK 22+.            |
-
-## Architecture Principle
-
-**The C API is the foundation ABI for non-Rust bindings.** The C API is not yet ABI-stable — it
-evolves as fast as the rest of the project and should be **statically linked** to avoid breakage.
-In the future, a subset of the API will be flagged as stable for use via dynamically linked
-libraries.
-
-Each language chooses the binding strategy that makes the most sense:
-
-- **Python** uses PyO3 to call Rust directly and will continue to do so. PyO3 provides the best
-  ergonomics and performance for Python.
-- **Other languages** use Rust-specific bindings where it makes sense (e.g. cxx for C++), or wrap
-  the C API otherwise (e.g. Java Panama, future C++ migration).
-- New capabilities should be exposed through the C API so that any language can consume them, but
-  languages are not required to go through C if a more direct path exists.
-- The C API's error handling, memory ownership, and lifetime conventions must be documented
-  regardless of stability guarantees, since all consumers depend on them.
-
-## Open Questions
-
-### Array Execution Model
-
-The array execution model (lazy vs eager evaluation) is still being designed. This directly affects
-what bindings can expose:
-
-- **Eager execution** is simpler for bindings — arrays are materialized values that can be passed
-  across the FFI boundary.
-- **Lazy execution** requires bindings to handle expression graphs, materialization triggers, and
-  potentially device placement (CPU vs GPU).
-
-Until the execution model stabilizes, bindings should focus on the Scan API (Tier 1) where results
-are always materialized Arrow streams, and avoid exposing internal array operations that may change.
-
-### Stable Rust Plugin API
-
-Should Rust plugins go through the C ABI for dynamic loading, or should they use a Rust-native
-trait-based plugin interface?
-
-- **C ABI approach:** Maximum portability, works across Rust compiler versions. Higher development
-  cost per plugin.
-- **Rust-native approach:** Ergonomic, zero-cost, but ties plugins to a specific Rust compiler
-  version and Vortex ABI.
-
-This is a future concern — the current priority is stabilizing the C API for non-Rust consumers.
-
-### Panama Timeline for Java
-
-Java's Foreign Function & Memory API (Panama) graduated to a stable API in JDK 22. Key
-considerations:
-
-- Trino already supports JDK 22 and can adopt Panama immediately.
-- Spark targets older LTS releases and will not support Panama for some time.
-- JNI must remain supported as the primary path for Spark and any other engine on older JDKs.
-- Panama provides direct C ABI access, eliminating JNI overhead and enabling Tier 2 capabilities.
-
-## Per-Language Migration Plan
-
-### C FFI
-
-Expand from Tier ~1 to Tier 2:
-
-- **Array stream export:** Expose Vortex array streams (not just Arrow) through the C API.
-- **Array tree inspection:** Provide functions to walk array children, read encoding IDs, and
-  access array metadata.
-- **Error handling:** Stabilize the error reporting convention (error codes, error message
-  retrieval, thread-local error state).
-- **Memory ownership:** Document and enforce ownership conventions (who allocates, who frees,
-  reference counting semantics).
-
-### C++
-
-Migrate from cxx to wrapping the C API:
-
-- **RAII wrappers:** Provide C++ classes that manage lifetime of C API objects (files, scanners,
-  arrays, streams).
-- **CMake integration:** Ship a CMake config so downstream projects can `find_package(Vortex)`.
-- **Header generation:** Auto-generate C++ headers from the C API headers, adding type safety and
-  namespace scoping.
-- **Target:** Tier 2 (native array access through the C API).
-
-### Python
-
-Already near Tier 2-3. Python will continue to use PyO3 for direct Rust interop. The migration
-plan focuses on formalization:
-
-- **API stability:** Classify existing Python APIs as stable, experimental, or internal. Publish
-  this classification in the Python API docs.
-- **Plugin API:** Expose plugin registration (custom array plugins, compute plugins) to Python via
-  PyO3. The registration model should mirror the C API's capabilities so that the same plugin
-  concepts are available in both languages.
-
-### Java (JNI)
-
-Maintain current JNI bindings for Arrow I/O and basic scan. This track targets broad JDK
-compatibility and remains the primary integration point for Spark, which targets older LTS
-releases. JNI stays at Tier 1.
-
-### Java (Panama)
-
-Build a new binding layer using Panama's Foreign Function & Memory API to call the C API directly.
-This enables native array access, lower overhead, and a path to Tier 2 capabilities. Panama
-bindings are opt-in for environments running JDK 22+. Trino already supports JDK 22 and is the
-likely first adopter. Spark will not support Panama until it moves to a compatible JDK. Connectors
-should abstract over the binding layer so they can use JNI or Panama transparently.
-
-### Rust
-
-Remains native Tier 3. Future considerations:
-
-- **Stable plugin ABI:** Investigate a C ABI-based plugin interface for dynamically loading
-  encoding crates. This would allow third-party encodings to be distributed as shared libraries
-  without requiring recompilation of Vortex.
-- **Version compatibility:** A stable plugin ABI would need versioning and capability negotiation
-  to handle evolution of the array and compute plugin interfaces.
-
-## Phased Roadmap
-
-### Phase 1: Complete C API at Tier 1
-
-- Complete the C API for file I/O, scan with serialized expressions, and Arrow stream output.
-- Document the API: function signatures, error handling conventions, memory ownership rules.
-- Add integration tests that exercise the C API from C and C++.
-- Ensure Python and Java (JNI) bindings are fully functional at Tier 1.
-
-### Phase 2: Extend to Tier 2
-
-- Add array stream export to the C API (Vortex arrays, not just Arrow).
-- Add array tree inspection functions (walk children, read encoding IDs and metadata).
-- Migrate C++ bindings from cxx to wrapping the C API with RAII wrappers.
-- Prototype Java Panama bindings targeting Tier 2.
-- Extend Python bindings to formalize Tier 2 APIs as stable.
-
-### Phase 3: Plugin API Exploration
-
-- Design the plugin registration interface in the C API (Tier 3 capabilities).
-- Formalize the Python plugin API (array plugins, compute plugins, extension DTypes).
-- Investigate Rust stable plugin ABI for dynamic loading of encoding crates.
-- Evaluate Panama adoption timeline based on Spark/Trino JDK requirements.
-
-## Expression Strategy
-
-Expressions are the primary mechanism for pushing computation into Vortex (filters, projections,
-computed columns). The bindings must support expression construction across all languages.
-
-**Serialized expressions (protobuf)** are the baseline for all languages. Any language that can
-produce protobuf bytes can construct expressions — this is the lowest-common-denominator approach
-and the one the C API should always accept.
-
-**Native expression construction** is a convenience layer built per-language. Python already has
-this via PyO3. C++ and Java should have builder APIs that produce the same protobuf under the hood.
-
-However, serialized expressions have limitations that mean a mixed approach will likely remain
-necessary:
-
-- **Dynamic expressions** (e.g. UDFs, closures, expressions that reference runtime state) cannot
-  be represented in serialized form. These require native expression handles passed through the
-  binding layer.
-- **Large literal values** embedded in expressions (e.g. large `IN` lists) can be a performance
-  constraint when serialized, since the entire value must be copied through protobuf encoding and
-  decoding.
-
-The C API should therefore support both modes:
-
-- Accept serialized expression bytes (`vortex_scan_set_filter_bytes`).
-- Provide builder functions for common expressions (`vortex_expr_column`, `vortex_expr_eq`,
-  `vortex_expr_and`, etc.) that return opaque expression handles.
-
-This dual approach lets simple integrations pass pre-built protobuf while giving interactive users
-and query engines with dynamic expressions an ergonomic builder API.

 # Vortex C++ bindings
 
-For a usage guide, see docs/api/cpp/index.rst.
+A C++20 API for reading and writing Vortex files. See the
+[C++ quickstart](../../docs/getting-started/cpp.rst) for API examples.
 
-## Requirements
+## Build
 
-- CMake 3.10+
-- C++20 compiler (C++23 compiler for tests).
-- Rust toolchain for building `vortex-ffi`.
+Requires CMake 3.25+, C/C++ compilers, and Cargo/rustc 1.95+ on `PATH`.
 
-## Build
+From a Vortex checkout:
+
+```sh
+cmake -S lang/cpp -B build/cpp -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release
+cmake --build build/cpp --parallel
+```
+
+CMake runs Cargo for you. Configuration and builds download uncached dependencies.
+
+**Native builds only:** GNU/Linux x86_64 and aarch64, plus macOS arm64 for standalone development.
+Cross-compilation, universal binaries, Windows, musl, and shared Vortex targets are unsupported.
+
+## Embed in a CMake project
+
+Vendor or fetch a pinned, complete checkout:
+
+```cmake
+add_subdirectory(path/to/vortex vortex)
+target_link_libraries(my_cpp_target PRIVATE Vortex::cpp_static)
+target_link_libraries(my_c_target PRIVATE Vortex::ffi_static)
+```
+
+Vortex leaves parent build settings unchanged. Its archives are position-independent.
+
+## Build options
+
+Pass `-D<OPTION>=<VALUE>` or set options before `add_subdirectory`. Both bindings share these
+options. Defaults below are for standalone builds.
+
+| Option                      | Default  | Purpose                                                     |
+| --------------------------- | -------- | ----------------------------------------------------------- |
+| `VORTEX_BUILD_TESTS`        | `OFF`    | C API and C++23 wrapper tests.                              |
+| `VORTEX_BUILD_EXAMPLES`     | `OFF`    | C/C++ examples.                                             |
+| `VORTEX_WARNINGS_AS_ERRORS` | `ON`     | Warnings as errors for Vortex targets only.                 |
+| `VORTEX_CARGO_PROFILE`      | Inferred | Override the mapping below.                                 |
+| `VORTEX_RUSTUP_TOOLCHAIN`   | Inferred | [Rust toolchain override](#toolchain-and-build-behavior).   |
+| `VORTEX_SANITIZER`          | Empty    | [Sanitizers](#sanitizers): `asan`, `lsan`, `ubsan`, `tsan`. |
+| `VORTEX_SANITIZE_RUST_STD`  | `OFF`    | Also instrument Rust's standard library.                    |
+| `VORTEX_ENABLE_CUDA`        | `OFF`    | Linux-only [CUDA build](#cuda).                             |
+
+Embedded builds default `VORTEX_WARNINGS_AS_ERRORS` to `OFF`. Parents must call
+`enable_testing()` to register tests.
+
+### Cargo profiles
+
+Standalone builds default to `Debug`. Unless overridden, Cargo uses:
+
+| `CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE` | Cargo profile         |
+| ------------------ | --------------------- |
+| `Debug` or empty   | `dev`                 |
+| `Release`          | `release`             |
+| `RelWithDebInfo`   | `release_debug`       |
+| `MinSizeRel`       | `release_size`        |
+| Other              | `dev`, with a warning |
+
+Cargo's `test` and `bench` profiles are unsupported.
+
+### Toolchain and build behavior
+
+- On first configuration, `VORTEX_RUSTUP_TOOLCHAIN` defaults to `RUSTUP_TOOLCHAIN`, otherwise
+  `nightly` for Rust sanitizers or the workspace `rust-toolchain.toml`. CMake caches this choice.
+  Set it explicitly to change toolchains. An empty value selects the workspace toolchain.
+- Cargo/rustc are found on `PATH`. Override them with `VORTEX_CARGO_EXECUTABLE` and
+  `VORTEX_RUSTC_EXECUTABLE`. CMake replaces environment/configuration Rust flags and builds with
+  the lockfile and no optional FFI features.
+- Cargo's native dependencies use CMake's compilers, archiver, SDK, and C/C++ flags, except
+  warning-as-error flags. Global flags can override dependency choices, including language standards.
+  Prefer target-scoped flags or Vortex options.
+- Cargo caches under the FFI build directory (`ffi/cargo-target` in C++/root builds).
+  `clean` removes this cache and staged headers, not checkout headers.
+- Nightly builds without Rust sanitizers may regenerate `vortex.h`.
+  Nightly and CUDA builds need a writable checkout for generated sources.
+
+## Development
+
+### Tests and examples
 
 ```sh
-cargo build --release -p vortex-ffi
-cmake -Bbuild -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release
-cmake --build build -j
+cmake -S lang/cpp -B build/cpp-dev -DVORTEX_BUILD_TESTS=ON -DVORTEX_BUILD_EXAMPLES=ON
+cmake --build build/cpp-dev --parallel
+ctest --test-dir build/cpp-dev --output-on-failure
 ```
 
-This will generate `libvortex_cxx` shared and static libraries.
-You can use `vortex_cxx` and `vortex_cxx_shared` CMake targets.
+Examples appear in `build/cpp-dev/examples/` (C++) and `build/cpp-dev/ffi/examples/` (C).
 
-## Test
+Build-system regressions require Python 3.11+, CMake, Ninja, Make, Rust, Clang, and `nm`.
+They compile a tiny Cargo/C/C++ fixture, not Vortex:
 
 ```sh
-cargo build --release -p vortex-ffi
-cmake -Bbuild -DBUILD_TESTS=ON
-cmake --build build -j
-ctest --test-dir build -j "$(nproc)"
+cargo fetch --locked
+python3 -m unittest discover -s vortex-ffi/cmake/tests -v
 ```
 
-## Run examples
+Missing tools fail the tests rather than skipping them. These checks cover embedding,
+compiler flags, rebuilds, generated headers, and CUDA architecture forwarding;
+the C/C++ CI jobs build and test Vortex itself.
+
+### Sanitizers
+
+Use `Debug`. `asan`, `lsan`, and `tsan` require nightly Rust and upstream LLVM Clang.
+`ubsan` is native-only and also supports stable Rust and AppleClang.
 
 ```sh
-cmake -Bbuild -DBUILD_EXAMPLES=ON
-cmake --build build -j
-./build/examples/hello-vortex
+rustup toolchain install nightly
+
+cmake -S lang/cpp -B build/cpp-asan \
+    -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug -DVORTEX_RUSTUP_TOOLCHAIN=nightly \
+    -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER=clang -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=clang++ \
+    -DVORTEX_SANITIZER=asan,ubsan -DVORTEX_BUILD_TESTS=ON
+cmake --build build/cpp-asan --parallel
+ctest --test-dir build/cpp-asan --output-on-failure
 ```
 
-## Check coverage
+Set the nightly explicitly when reusing a stable build tree. To instrument Rust's standard library,
+install `rust-src` for that nightly and add `-DVORTEX_SANITIZE_RUST_STD=ON` alongside a Rust sanitizer.
 
-This will generate an LCOV directory `coverage`:
+Flags instrument Vortex, targets linking it, and Cargo's native library dependencies—not Cargo's
+build tools or FetchContent dependencies. CUDA device code, the CUB helper, and nvCOMP are excluded.
+
+### Coverage
+
+Requires gcov/LCOV and, for HTML output, `genhtml`. Reports C++ coverage only.
 
 ```sh
-./gcov-report.sh generate
+cd lang/cpp
+./gcov-report.sh html
 ```
+
+Omit `html` for `coverage.info` only. `CMAKE_BUILD_PARALLEL_LEVEL` overrides the online CPU count.
+Coverage instrumentation stays off Cargo's build tools.
+
+## CUDA
+
+`VORTEX_ENABLE_CUDA=ON` selects `vortex-cuda-ffi` and adds `vortex_cuda.h` to the existing targets.
+Requires Linux, a CUDA toolkit (`CUDAToolkit_ROOT` if needed), and libclang.
+The build downloads the pinned CUDA 12 nvCOMP SDK if uncached.
+
+`CMAKE_CUDA_ARCHITECTURES` controls both Vortex kernels and CUB. For example:
+
+```sh
+cmake -S lang/cpp -B build/cpp-cuda -DVORTEX_ENABLE_CUDA=ON \
+    -DCMAKE_CUDA_ARCHITECTURES="80-real;90-virtual"
+```
+
+- `80-real` emits only machine code for `sm_80`.
+- `80-virtual` emits only PTX with compute capability 8.0 as its baseline (`compute_80`).
+  The driver JIT-compiles it for GPUs with compute capability 8.0 or newer, not older GPUs.
+- `80` emits both machine code and PTX. The driver uses compatible machine code when available,
+  otherwise it JIT-compiles the PTX automatically.
+
+The `80` is a GPU capability baseline, not a PTX ISA version. The driver must support the PTX
+ISA version emitted by the CUDA toolkit. Architecture-specific (`a`) and family-specific (`f`)
+PTX targets have narrower compatibility than ordinary numeric targets.
+
+`native` (the default) targets the GPUs visible at build time without PTX fallback.
+`all` and `all-major` use NVCC's corresponding architecture selection; `OFF` leaves selection
+to NVCC's defaults. Explicit targets allow GPU-less builds; GPU and toolkit compatibility
+still apply. With `native`, clean the build cache when switching GPU hosts.
+This does not retarget the prebuilt nvCOMP SDK.
+
+**Deployment limits:**
+
+- Kernel sources are generated in the checkout. Compiled kernels live in Cargo's build directory
+  and are embedded in the archive as fat binaries.
+- CMake does not stage shared libraries. `libvortex_cub.so` must remain at its Cargo build path
+  or beside the executable. `libnvcomp.so` is loaded from its original Cargo build path.
+- CUDA operations require a compatible NVIDIA driver and an accessible GPU.
+
+End-to-end cuDF integration, GCC 14, Conda compiler wrappers, and glibc 2.28 remain unvalidated.

 # Vortex C bindings
 
-## Runtime threading
-
-The FFI uses a shared, caller-driven runtime. By default Vortex creates no runtime worker threads:
-the host threads currently executing FFI calls drive the runtime. Multiple host threads making
-concurrent FFI calls can drive runtime work in parallel while keeping thread ownership entirely in
-the host application.
-
-Applications that want a single FFI operation to make progress on additional threads may opt into
-Vortex-owned background workers with `vx_runtime_set_worker_threads`. This is a process-global
-setting shared by every FFI session. Calling it with a non-zero count changes the threading model
-from host-thread-only execution to a combination of host threads and Vortex-owned workers. Calling
-it with zero signals the background workers to stop and restores the host-thread-only
-configuration.
-
-Applications that already supply concurrency through their own host threads should leave the
-worker count at its default of zero to avoid oversubscription.
+## Use from CMake
 
-## Updating Headers
+Add a complete Vortex checkout. CMake builds the Rust archive for you:
 
-If you're developing FFI and want to rebuild `cinclude/vortex.h`, run:
-
-```sh
-cargo +nightly build -p vortex-ffi
+```cmake
+add_subdirectory(path/to/vortex vortex)
+target_link_libraries(my_target PRIVATE Vortex::ffi_static)
 ```
 
-## Usage from a CMake project
-
-```
-# in vortex folder
-cargo build --release -p vortex-ffi
-
-# in your CMakeLists.txt
-include_directory(vortex/vortex-ffi)
-target_link_libraries(my_target, vortex_ffi_shared)
-# or target_link_libraries(my_target, vortex_ffi)
-```
-
-## Running C examples
-
-```sh
-cmake -Bbuild -DBUILD_EXAMPLES=1
-cmake --build build
-./build/examples/dtype
-./build/examples/scan
-./build/examples/scan_to_arrow
-./build/examples/write_sample
-```
+The target supplies the archive, headers, and native libraries. You can also add `vortex-ffi`
+directly. See the [CMake build guide](../lang/cpp/README.md) for shared requirements, options,
+and deployment limits.
 
-## Testing C part
+### Examples and tests
 
-Build the test library:
+Run from the repository root. Tests use Catch2 and require a C++ compiler.
 
 ```sh
-cmake -Bbuild -DBUILD_TESTS=1
-cmake --build build
+cmake -S vortex-ffi -B build/ffi \
+    -DVORTEX_BUILD_EXAMPLES=ON -DVORTEX_BUILD_TESTS=ON
+cmake --build build/ffi --parallel
+ctest --test-dir build/ffi --output-on-failure
+
+./build/ffi/examples/write_sample sample.vortex
+./build/ffi/examples/dtype sample.vortex
+./build/ffi/examples/scan sample.vortex
+./build/ffi/examples/scan_to_arrow sample.vortex
 ```
 
-Run the tests:
+## Runtime threading
 
-```sh
-ctest --test-dir build -j $(nproc)
-```
+By default, calling threads drive the shared runtime with no Vortex workers.
 
-You will need C++ compiler toolchain to run the tests since they use Catch2.
+`vx_runtime_set_worker_threads(n)` configures a library-local pool of background workers that
+drive the shared runtime. The pool is shared by all FFI sessions in that library instance and
+persists across calls for the lifetime of the library. Passing zero signals the workers to stop
+and restores caller-driven execution. Leave it at zero if your application already provides concurrency.
 
-## Testing Rust part with sanitizers
+## Update the C header
 
-AddressSanitizer:
+Regenerate `vortex-ffi/cinclude/vortex.h`:
 
 ```sh
-# inside vortex-ffi
-RUSTFLAGS="-Z sanitizer=address" \
-cargo +nightly test -Zbuild-std \
-    --no-default-features --target <target triple> \
-    -- --no-capture
+cargo +nightly build -p vortex-ffi
 ```
 
-MemorySanitizer:
+## Sanitizer tests
 
-```sh
-RUSTFLAGS="-Z sanitizer=memory -Cunsafe-allow-abi-mismatch=sanitizer" \
-cargo +nightly test -Zbuild-std \
-    --no-default-features --target <target triple> \
-    -- --no-capture
-```
+### Rust and C/C++ together
 
-ThreadSanitizer:
+Requires nightly Rust and upstream LLVM Clang. See the
+[sanitizer guide](../lang/cpp/README.md#sanitizers) for scope and alternatives.
 
 ```sh
-TSAN_OPTIONS="suppressions=$HOME/vortex/vortex-ffi/tsan_suppressions.txt" \
-RUSTFLAGS="-Z sanitizer=thread -Cunsafe-allow-abi-mismatch=sanitizer" \
-cargo +nightly test -Zbuild-std \
-    --no-default-features --target <target triple> \
-    -- --no-capture
+rustup toolchain install nightly --component rust-src
+
+cmake -S vortex-ffi -B build/ffi-asan \
+    -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug -DVORTEX_RUSTUP_TOOLCHAIN=nightly \
+    -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER=clang -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=clang++ \
+    -DVORTEX_SANITIZER=asan,ubsan -DVORTEX_SANITIZE_RUST_STD=ON \
+    -DVORTEX_BUILD_TESTS=ON
+cmake --build build/ffi-asan --parallel
+ctest --test-dir build/ffi-asan --output-on-failure
 ```
 
-- `-Zbuild-std` is needed as memory and thread sanitizers report std errors otherwise.
-- `--no-default-features` is needed as we use Mimalloc otherwise which interferes with sanitizers.
-- `allow-abi-mismatch` is safe because in our dependency graph only crates like `compiler_builtins`
-  unset sanitization, and they do it on purpose.
-- Make sure to use `cargo test` and not `cargo nextest` as nextest reports less leaks.
-- If you want stack trace symbolization, install `llvm-symbolizer`.
-
-## Testing Rust and C with sanitizers
+For ThreadSanitizer, use `-DVORTEX_SANITIZER=tsan` and set
+`TSAN_OPTIONS=suppressions=/absolute/path/to/vortex/vortex-ffi/tsan_suppressions.txt`.
 
-1. Build FFI library with external sanitizer runtime:
+Pipe `build/ffi-asan/test/vortex_ffi_test` output through `rustfilt -i-` to demangle Rust symbols.
 
-```sh
-RUSTFLAGS="-Zsanitizer=address -Zexternal-clangrt" \
-cargo +nightly build -Zbuild-std --target=<target triple> \
-    --no-default-features -p vortex-ffi
-```
+### Rust only
 
-2. Build tests with target triple:
+Use nightly with `rust-src` installed. This example uses the native Linux x86_64 target:
 
 ```sh
-cmake -Bbuild -DSANITIZER=asan -DTARGET_TRIPLE=<target triple>
+RUSTFLAGS="-Zsanitizer=address -Cunsafe-allow-abi-mismatch=sanitizer" \
+cargo +nightly test -p vortex-ffi -Zbuild-std \
+    --target x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu --tests -- --no-capture
 ```
 
-3. Run the tests (ctest doesn't output failures in detail):
+Substitute your native target. Use `-Zsanitizer=memory` for MemorySanitizer or
+`-Zsanitizer=thread` for ThreadSanitizer, with the suppression file above.
 
-```sh
-./build/test/vortex_ffi_test 2>& 1 | rustfilt -i-
-```
+- `-Zbuild-std` instruments std to avoid memory/thread sanitizer false positives.
+- `-Cunsafe-allow-abi-mismatch=sanitizer` allows deliberately uninstrumented dependencies.
+- `--tests` excludes doctests, which do not inherit `RUSTFLAGS`.
+- Prefer `cargo test` over nextest for leak detection. Use `llvm-symbolizer` for stack traces.

+dataset (about one million rows of `hits`). Generate both first, then run the suite with
 `cargo nextest`:

 cargo nextest run -p vortex-sqllogictest
 # the built-in cargo test harness also works:

-The generated Vortex and Parquet data lives under `slt/tpch/data/` (git-ignored). Both formats
-are required; regenerate older fixtures if they only contain Vortex files. If either format is
-missing, the TPC-H tests are reported as **ignored**, so the rest of the suite still runs. The TPC-H
-`.slt` files load their tables through paths relative to the crate root, so run the tests via

+`generate_data.sh` accepts dataset names to generate only some of the fixtures, for example
+`./vortex-sqllogictest/slt/generate_data.sh tpch` or `... clickbench`. Run it with `--help` to list
+the datasets. It runs each dataset's own script, `slt/tpch/generate_data.sh` or
+`slt/clickbench/generate_data.sh`, which can also be run directly.

+TPC-H scripts live under `slt/tpch/datafusion/` and `slt/tpch/duckdb/`, ClickBench scripts under
+`slt/clickbench/datafusion/` and `slt/clickbench/duckdb/`. Each engine has its own
+`create.slt.no`, `results/q*.slt.no` (`q1` to `q22` for TPC-H, `q0` to `q42` for ClickBench,
+matching the upstream numbering), and `drop.slt.no`. Its `tpch.slt`/`clickbench.slt` runs these
+against Vortex and asserts EXPLAIN output from the matching `plans/q*.slt.no`. Its `parquet.slt`
+runs the same queries against the original Parquet fixtures and checks the same expected results.
+DataFusion uses external tables; DuckDB uses views over files. The `FILE_FORMAT` substitution
+variable selects the format in each engine's table setup.
+
+ClickBench plans explain the upstream queries unchanged. Where an upstream query leaves the order
+of tied rows unspecified, its result record adds tie-breaking `ORDER BY` columns so both formats
+and repeated runs produce the same rows. The ClickBench generator also runs
+`slt/clickbench/duckdb/parity.slt` right after converting the shard; it reads both files through
+DuckDB and fails if the Parquet and Vortex data differ. After completing ClickBench DataFusion
+plans, replace the byte ranges in `file_groups` with `<slt:ignore>`, as the TPC-H plans do:

+# Security Policy
+
+## Reporting a Vulnerability
+
+If you discover a security vulnerability in Vortex, please email <security@vortex.dev>.
+Please do not report security vulnerabilities through public GitHub issues, discussions, or pull
+requests.
+
+To help us triage quickly, include where possible:
+
+- the affected crate, binding, or component and the version or commit you tested against;
+- a description of the issue and its impact;
+- steps to reproduce, a proof of concept, or a minimal failing input (for example, a crafted
+  Vortex file);
+- whether the issue is publicly known or being actively exploited.
+
+If you believe the vulnerability is being actively exploited, or you are reporting a severe
+incident, follow the [emergency process](#emergency-process) below instead.
+
+## Response Targets
+
+These are targets the maintainers work to, not contractual commitments. Vortex is maintained by
+a community of volunteers and employees of several companies.
+
+| Report type | Acknowledgement | Escalation to the CRA steward |
+| ----------- | --------------- | ----------------------------- |
+| Regular vulnerability report | Within 3 business days | Not required |
+| Emergency (`URGENT`) report | Within 24 hours | Immediately, and no later than 24 hours after the maintainers become aware |
+
+## Regular Process
+
+This process applies to vulnerabilities that are not known to be actively exploited.
+
+1. **Report.** The reporter emails <security@vortex.dev> with the details listed above.
+2. **Acknowledge.** A maintainer replies to confirm receipt, usually within 3 business days.
+3. **Triage.** The maintainers reproduce the issue, assess its severity and affected
+   versions, and decide whether it is a security vulnerability. If it is not, we explain why and
+   may ask the reporter to open a public issue instead.
+4. **Fix.** The maintainers develop a fix privately, using a
+   [GitHub security advisory](https://github.com/vortex-data/vortex/security/advisories) and its
+   temporary private fork where appropriate. We keep the reporter informed of progress and may
+   ask them to validate the fix.
+5. **Release.** The fix ships in the next Vortex release. For high-severity issues we cut a
+   release as soon as the fix is ready rather than waiting for the regular cadence.
+6. **Disclose.** Once the fixed release is available we publish the advisory, request a CVE
+   through GitHub, and credit the reporter unless they ask to remain anonymous. We ask
+   reporters to hold public disclosure until the fix is released, and we aim to release a fix
+   within 90 days of the report.
+
+## Emergency Process
+
+This process applies to:
+
+- a vulnerability in Vortex that is being actively exploited; or
+- a severe security incident affecting the project, for example a compromise of the release or
+  build process, a published crate, wheel, or binary, project signing keys, or maintainer
+  credentials.
+
+Steps for reporters:
+
+1. Email <security@vortex.dev> immediately with `URGENT` at the start of the subject line.
+2. Include everything you know about the exploitation or compromise, including how you became
+   aware of it. Do not wait to prepare a full write-up.
+
+Steps for maintainers, in order:
+
+1. **Acknowledge** the report within 24 hours and confirm whether it meets the emergency
+   criteria above.
+2. **Notify the CRA steward.** Notify the project's CRA steward contact at the Linux
+   Foundation immediately, and in any case within 24 hours of becoming aware. The steward has
+   its own regulatory deadlines starting from that moment. Do this in parallel with fixing the
+   problem, never instead of fixing it.
+3. **Inform the TSC.** Notify the Vortex Technical Steering Committee so that more than one
+   maintainer is coordinating the response.
+4. **Contain.** Limit further harm before working on a full fix, for example by yanking a
+   compromised crate or wheel, revoking exposed credentials or tokens, and pausing release
+   workflows.
+5. **Fix and release.** Develop and release a fix or mitigation as quickly as possible. Follow
+   the regular process for the fix itself, compressed to whatever timeline the situation
+   demands.
+6. **Disclose.** Publish an advisory as soon as a fix or mitigation is available, including
+   guidance for users who cannot upgrade immediately.
+7. **Keep the steward updated.** Send the steward any further information it needs for its
+   follow-up notifications and final report, including confirmation of when the fix was
+   released.
+
+## Supported Versions
+
+Vortex is under active development and has not yet reached a 1.0 release. Security fixes are
+released in the next release from the `develop` branch and are not backported to earlier
+releases. Please keep your dependency on Vortex up to date.
+
+## Intended Use
+
+Vortex is published as general-purpose open-source software. It is intended for, and is used
+in, commercial products and services as well as non-commercial use.
+
+## CRA Stewardship
+
+Vortex is a project of the LF AI & Data Foundation, hosted as Vortex a Series of LF Projects, LLC.
+LF AI & Data is supported under the Linux Foundation CRA stewardship framework. The LF AI & Data
+Foundation's CRA steward is The Linux Foundation and its policy is available at
+<https://www.linuxfoundation.org/security>.
+
+Under the EU Cyber Resilience Act (CRA), The Linux Foundation, as open-source software steward,
+is responsible for regulatory reporting of actively exploited vulnerabilities and severe security
+incidents to ENISA. The Vortex project does not operate its own CRA reporting function; it
+reports to its steward through the emergency process described above.

Subject: [PATCH 472/498] Replace normalized encoding with explicit
 normalization (#9767)

## Summary

- Tracking Issue: #6865

Replaces the `Normalized` physical encoding with an explicit
`L2Normalize` scalar function. `L2Norm` returns only the magnitude,
while `L2Normalize` returns a struct containing the normalized value and
the same norm.

## Changes

Computes normalization in one pass with the same left-to-right norm
kernel used by `L2Norm`. Removes encoding-specific L2 norm,
inner-product, and cosine shortcuts so these operations always derive
results from decoded coordinates. Tests cover vectors, tensors, nulls,
zero rows, `f16`, non-finite values, overflow, underflow, persistence,
and bitwise agreement between both norm results.

## API Changes

Removes the public `Normalized` encoding and compression scheme. Adds
`L2Normalize`, whose output is a nullable struct with non-nullable
`normalized` and `norm` fields.

-
-/// The norm-split encoding for tensor-like columns.
-///
-/// Row `i` decodes to `normalized[i] * norms[i]`. The encoding supports [`Vector`] and
-/// [`FixedShapeTensor`] columns with float elements.
-///
-/// # Invariants
-///
-/// Every [`NormalizedArray`] has three slots.
-///
-/// - `normalized` is a non-nullable float tensor with the parent dtype's shape.
-/// - `norms` is a non-nullable primitive column with the tensor element ptype.
-/// - `validity` optionally contains the parent validity as a non-nullable boolean column.
-///
-/// Both data children have the array's length and element ptype. A missing validity slot means
-/// either non-nullable or nullable-all-valid data, as determined by the parent dtype.
-///
-/// [`try_new`](Self::try_new) also enforces the invariants that make the split lossless:
-///
-/// - Each normalized row has L2 norm `1.0` or `0.0`, within the tolerance for its precision and
-///   width.
-/// - Each stored norm is non-negative.
-/// - A stored norm is zero exactly when its normalized row is all zeros.
-///
-/// These checks include null rows. [`normalize`] zeroes both children at null positions.
-///
-/// # Lossy normalized children
-///
-/// [`new_unchecked`](Self::new_unchecked) permits an approximate normalized child, such as a
-/// quantized direction. The stored norms remain authoritative. [`L2Norm`], [`InnerProduct`], and
-/// [`CosineSimilarity`] therefore operate on the stored children and can differ slightly from
-/// decoding and recomputing.

Subject: [PATCH 473/498] fix(buffer): reject ZSTs and address allocator review
 comments (#9807)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Reject zero-sized buffer elements at construction with compile-time
assertions. ZST support was previously inconsistent; rejecting these
types prevents division-by-zero and pointer-distance failures without
adding iterator or growth special cases. Empty buffers of non-ZST types
remain supported. Six compile-fail doctests cover the independent
construction paths.

Remove the generic raw-owner constructor. Typed Vec adoption takes its
pointer and element count directly from the Vec and retains that Vec for
destruction. External byte owners continue to use `Bytes::from_owner` at
the call site, without adding a buffer API.

Address the allocator-stack review comments with field documentation, an
explanation of the optional allocator, and tests for owner lifetime,
allocator retention, empty/shared ownership, sliced-buffer growth, and
alignment. The allocator representation, buffer layout, alignment
policy, and allocation benchmarks are retained. Both iterator-extension
implementations and the owned iterator match the merged baseline. This
is a focused alternative to #9745.

Validation:
- `cargo nextest run -p vortex-buffer --all-features`: 874 tests passed.
- `cargo test --doc -p vortex-buffer --all-features`: 8 ordinary and 6
compile-fail doctests passed.
- `cargo clippy -p vortex-buffer --all-targets --all-features`: passed.
- Nightly formatting and `git diff --check`: passed.
- Workspace clippy was blocked locally by the CUDA nvCOMP download; full
CI is running on this revision.

Performance validation:
- Three serial alternating local comparisons against the allocator-stack
baseline place all 20 measured interleave, batched i8 filter, and
multiplication cases within 2% of baseline.
- The final Graviton NEON run matches develop: u64 multiplication 15.1
vs 15.3 µs; i64 and 16,384-row multiplication 17.1 vs approximately 17.3
µs. The earlier NEON slowdowns disappeared with the ZST ban.
- The complete final CodSpeed report passed with no reported
regressions.

From bffdca1109e99e6957ea2fc18f4a7809c88e0a0c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Robert Kruszewski <github@robertk.io>
Date: Wed, 9 Sep 2026 00:06:05 +0100
Subject: [PATCH 474/498] Replace filter-and-scatter RowFn fallback with
 filtered valid-row execution (#9645)

## Summary

- Tracking issue: #9130

Instead of performing a gather/execute/scatter add a filtered execute
method that avoids majority of intermediate state

-//! Fallback execution for row kernels that cannot operate on the original partially valid inputs.
-//!
-//! Direct skip-invalid execution retains the original row domain: it decodes every input column,
-//! initializes a full-length output, and visits only valid rows. Some input representations cannot
-//! decode unspecified payloads behind nulls, and some output sinks cannot initialize rows that the
-//! kernel skips. In either case, there is no safe row loop to enter over the original columns.
-//!
-//! This fallback filters every input to the valid row domain before decoding it. The ordinary
-//! kernel then produces a compact, all-valid output. A take with nullable indices scatters those
-//! values back to the original row domain and restores its nulls.
-//!
-//! Filtering and scattering add columnar work around the row loop. Filtering nested or compressed
-//! inputs can also materialize their selected representation. Batch execution therefore tries
-//! direct skip-invalid execution first and uses this path only when a required capability is
-//! unavailable.
-//!
-//! A prepared, type-specific view can provide selected-row decoding without filtering. That is an
-//! optional direct-execution capability rather than a replacement for this fallback: it requires a
-//! representation with safe selected access, and it does not initialize an output sink that cannot
-//! represent skipped rows. Calling the general scalar-extraction API once per valid row is also not
-//! equivalent because it repeats array execution and scalar construction inside the row loop.

Subject: [PATCH 475/498] fix(bench): clamp producer values to signed database
 bounds (#9800)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

## Summary

The producer accepted values between `i32::MAX` and `u32::MAX`, or
between `i64::MAX` and `u64::MAX`, despite its documented saturation
policy. These values fail the ingest script’s signed Postgres bounds.

## Changes

Check the signed bounds before converting query indices, iteration
counts, and durations back to their existing unsigned wire fields.
Boundary tests reproduce both failures and cover zero, adjacent limits,
and unsigned overflow, while the existing serialization snapshots remain
unchanged.

## Validation

All 70 library tests and workspace Clippy pass. [CodSpeed reports
`random_i16[0.8]` increasing from 75.1 to 93.7
µs](https://github.com/vortex-data/vortex/pull/9800#issuecomment-5587988143),
with the cause unresolved. The changed producer crate is absent from
that benchmark’s dependency graph, and the benchmark and dependency
sources are unchanged.

Subject: [PATCH 476/498] refactor(array): propagate allocators through
 builders (#9670)

## Summary

Require array builder call sites to choose a buffer allocator explicitly
while keeping the old APIs as deprecated compatibility shims.

## Changes

- Add allocator-taking `_in` APIs and deprecate the allocator-free
builder constructors.
- Take `&BufferAllocatorRef` at API boundaries; clone only when a buffer
or builder retains it.
- Propagate the allocator through nested, dictionary, and offset-based
string builders.
- Use `ctx.allocator()` in execution paths; use the static allocator
only where no execution context exists.
- Add custom allocator coverage.

Subject: [PATCH 480/498] Fix: Use arrow's casting logic to cast file stats
 when reporting them to DF (#9818)

## Summary

Delegate stat casting to Arrow's casting that cover more cases and
adhere to the semantics that DF expects.

This also fixes a bug where our TS casting only changes the metadata but
doesn't touch the data itself (in stats, fixing the casting behavior for
arrays is a different issue).

Subject: [PATCH 482/498] Change DateTimeParts to i32 (#9796)

- Change days, seconds, and subseconds primitive types in DateTimeParts
from i64 to i32. We validate these with "jiff" which limits days so all
three fit in i32.
- When parsing timestamp into parts, optimize parsing by using a
constant divisor-parametrized function. This makes LLVM use a constant
division (smulh on arm). Process data in 4-element chunks so LLVM can
optimize stores into a vector store.
- When parsing timestamp with Seconds precision, set subseconds to a
ConstantArray and avoid touching it in the loop.

Subject: [PATCH 483/498] Replace basedpyright with ty for Python type checking
 (#9546)

Replace basedpyright with ty. Since ty is a native binary we no longer
need to install the package to lint it

Subject: [PATCH 484/498] duckdb: don't optimize_recursive() before exporting
 chunks (#9795)

When we wrap an Array with another Array, we call optimize() on a child.
This means, by the time we get to the exporter, the ArrayRef of a split
is fully optimized. Remove this call.

Subject: [PATCH 485/498] fix(cloud): parse OpenDAL boolean properties the way
 object_store does (#9782)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

`cos.rs` and `oss.rs` compared the property string against `"true"`
exactly, so `True`, `1` and
`yes` read as `false`. `object_store` accepts all of those for its own
configuration
(`config.rs`, `impl Parse for bool`: `1`/`true`/`on`/`yes`/`y`,
lowercased), and so does the
`allow_http` sibling in `hf/mod.rs` — only the two OpenDAL services did
not.

Values reach `make_opendal_store` verbatim from the caller's property
map, and
`warn_on_unknown_properties` only warns about unknown *keys*, so an
unusable *value* was silent:
`skip_signature = "True"` keeps signing a public bucket (403), and
`disable_config_load = "True"`
leaves OpenDAL loading the ambient credentials the caller asked to turn
off.

The new shared `property_as_bool` trims, lowercases, matches
`object_store`'s set, and warns
instead of answering `false`. `goosefs` has no boolean property.

## Tests

`cargo test --release -p vortex-cloud --features
cos,oss,goosefs,hf,registry`: 101 passed, 84 on
`develop`; feature matrix checked one flag at a time. Restoring the
exact `"true"` compare fails
7 of the new cases.

## AI assistance

Written with agentic AI assistance; I read `object_store`'s `Parse for
bool` in the vendored
0.13.2 source before matching it.

Subject: [PATCH 488/498] perf(onpair): speed up compression with onpair 0.2.1
 and row training (#9806)

## Summary

Speed up OnPair compression by upgrading to onpair 0.2.1 and training
directly from Vortex string views, avoiding the full input copy and
temporary offsets buffer.

## Changes

- Use the published onpair 0.2.1 release with its sampling fixes and
faster matcher construction.
- Read inline and external values through the row API, treating null
rows as empty and accumulating the byte count while collecting lengths.

Subject: [PATCH 489/498] FileSystem for local reads (#9773)

We have vortex-cloud and ObjectStoreFileSystem which is a unifired
interface for
reads. However, it does many things which are needed for an object store
but
excessive for local disk i.e. etag creation.
As another example, get_opts currently calls open() for every segment
which we
also don't need because a local read may use the cached file descriptor.

This change implements a local FileSystem and adds it support to
vortex-duckdb.

Subject: [PATCH 492/498] Add tensor row inputs for RowFn (#9776)

## Summary

- Tracking Issue: #9128
- Depends on: #9767

Adds the tensor row types used by RowFn scalar functions without
migrating a function in the same layer.

## Changes

`TensorRow` decodes ordinary tensor columns, literal constants, and
extension-backed constants into flat typed rows. It is dense-safe
because tensor float kernels can consume the stored payload of null rows
while RowFn owns output validity.

-description: Answer questions about the Vortex codebase or pull requests. Use when asked a question via "/query" or when the user wants to understand code, architecture, behavior, or implementation details.
----
-
-# Vortex Query Skill
-
-Answer questions about the Vortex project, its pull requests, and its implementation.
-
-## Key Context
-
-- Vortex is a Rust workspace for columnar arrays, compression encodings, file IO, and scan
-  integrations.
-- `vortex-array` defines the core array traits, dtype system, canonical arrays, and base
-  encodings.
-- `vortex-buffer` owns aligned zero-copy buffers.
-- `vortex-file` and `vortex-layout` implement file and layout reading.
-- `encodings/*` contains specialized compressed encodings.
-- Python, Java, DuckDB, and DataFusion integrations live in their own workspace areas.
-
-## Workflow
-
-1. Read `AGENTS.md` and any closer scoped `AGENTS.md` before relying on conventions.
-2. Use `rg` and targeted file reads to identify the relevant crate, module, and tests.
-3. If the question is about a PR, inspect the diff and comments before answering.
-4. If the question is about behavior, trace the implementation through public entry points,
-   encoding-specific implementations, and tests.
-5. Answer with concrete file paths and line numbers when they help.
-
-## Answering Guidelines
-
-- Separate confirmed facts from inference.
-- Prefer precise code references over broad descriptions.
-- Mention important uncertainty and describe what would verify it.
-- Do not invent architecture. If the repository does not answer the question, say what you
-  checked and what is still missing.

-## Build
+## Verification
 
-Prefer narrow crate builds while iterating:
+Linting, formatting, testing, builds, benchmarks, and other verification commands are optional.
+Users decide which checks to run and when. Do not run them automatically or make task completion
+depend on them. The commands below, and verification commands in scoped guidance or contributor
+workflows, are reference instructions for when the user requests a check.
 
-```bash
-cargo build -p <crate-name>
-```
+When verification is requested, use the narrowest check that covers the relevant changes. CI
+already runs workspace-wide checks. Markdown, RST, Sphinx configuration, agent configuration,
+comments outside Rust code, symlinks, and other metadata with no Rust/API behavior impact do not
+need Rust checks. Targeted doc/config commands or path inspection with `ls`, `find`, and
+`git status` are available for those changes.
 
-Use workspace-wide builds only when the change spans crate boundaries or before handing off a
-broad refactor:
+### Rust
+
+For requested Rust linting and formatting, scope these commands to the affected crate:
 
 ```bash
-cargo build --workspace
+cargo clippy -p <crate-name> --all-targets --all-features -- -D warnings
+cargo +nightly-<pinned> fmt -p <crate-name>
 ```
 
-## Testing
+To match CI when running these commands:
+
+- Include `-D warnings` so clippy fails on the warnings that CI rejects.
+- Use the nightly pinned as `NIGHTLY_TOOLCHAIN` in `.github/workflows/ci.yml`. A floating
+  `+nightly` can format differently from the toolchain CI checks against, so the reformatted tree
+  still fails `fmt --check`.
 
-Run tests for the crate or binding you touched before broader checks:
+There is no separate build step: `cargo clippy --all-targets` compiles the crate.
+
+When the user wants Rust tests, scope them to the affected crate. Doctests cover Rust doc comments
+and crate documentation:
 
 ```bash
 cargo nextest run -p <crate-name>
+cargo test --doc -p <crate-name>
 ```
 
-If cargo-nextest is not available, you can install it with:
+If needed for a requested test run, install cargo-nextest with `cargo install --locked cargo-nextest`.
 
-```bash
-cargo install --locked cargo-nextest
-```
+### Python
 
-For Rust doc comments or crate documentation, run doctests for the affected crate:
+The following applies to Python bindings and their PyO3 implementation under `vortex-python/`,
+and to CUDA bindings under `vortex-python-cuda/`. These commands use the repository root as their
+working directory.
+
+Follow the [Python binding development workflow](CONTRIBUTING.md#python-bindings) for environment
+setup, Maturin rebuilds, targeted testing, Cargo features, and the full Python check. Keep the
+contributor guide as the source of truth for shared commands; its verification workflows are
+available when the user chooses to run them.
+
+Python linting, formatting, and type-checking commands:
 
 ```bash
-cargo test --doc -p <crate-name>
+uvx ruff format --check <changed-python-files>
+uvx ruff check <changed-python-files>
+uvx ty check vortex-python vortex-python-cuda vortex-ffi/cmake/tests scripts/tests
 ```
 
-## Linting, Formatting, and Generated Files
+Use `uvx` for both Ruff and ty, matching CI. The command above covers both binding packages and the
+CMake and script tests. For a narrower check, pass the affected directory, such as
+`uvx ty check vortex-python` or `uvx ty check vortex-ffi/cmake/tests`. Checking the whole binding
+package covers callers affected by stub or annotation changes.
+
+ty reads Python sources and stubs and needs third-party dependencies for type information.
+`uv sync --all-packages --no-install-workspace` prepares those dependencies without building the
+Rust extensions. Runtime tests still need the installed extensions.
 
-Run verification that matches the files changed. Do not run expensive Rust checks for changes that
-only touch Markdown, agent configuration, comments outside Rust code, symlinks, or other metadata
-with no Rust/API behavior impact. For docs/config-only changes, validate formatting by inspection
-or with a targeted doc/config command, and verify symlink or path changes with `ls`, `find`, and
-`git status`.
+Use targeted `# ty: ignore[rule-name]` comments for intentional violations, such as invalid-input
+tests or third-party stub limitations, and explain non-obvious suppressions. Pyright suppression
+comments do not suppress ty diagnostics. Keep shared ty configuration in the root `pyproject.toml`.
 
-For Rust code, public API, feature flag, or generated-file changes, run these before stopping:
+Functions that only return `None`, including tests, may omit the `-> None` annotation. ty does not
+require return annotations, and Ruff's `suppress-none-returning` setting permits omitting them for
+these functions. Bare `return` and falling through are also allowed when the
+return type permits `None`; Ruff's `RET502` and `RET503` rules are explicitly disabled.
+
+When the user wants Python tests, run the targeted suite with:
 
 ```bash
-cargo +nightly fmt --all
-cargo clippy --all-targets --all-features
+uv run --all-packages pytest <changed-python-tests>
 ```
 
-For changed C++ and CUDA source or header files covered by CI (`.cpp`, `.hpp`, `.cu`, `.cuh`, and
-`.h` files under `lang/cpp`, `vortex-cuda`, `vortex-duckdb`, and `vortex-ffi`), format with the
-repository's `.clang-format` configuration and verify the result:
+For Python docstrings, `docs/api/python/`, or Sphinx configuration changes, follow
+`docs/AGENTS.md`; the contributor guide documents clean Sphinx builds and doctests. All verification
+remains the user's choice. The Rust commands above cover PyO3 files when scoped to the affected
+binding crate (`-p vortex-python` or `-p vortex-python-cuda`).
+
+`git diff --check` is available for checking patch whitespace.
+
+### C++ and CUDA
+
+For requested formatting of `.cpp`, `.hpp`, `.cu`, `.cuh`, and `.h` files under `lang/cpp`,
+`vortex-cuda`, `vortex-duckdb`, and `vortex-ffi`, use the repository's `.clang-format` configuration:
 
 ```bash
 clang-format --style=file -i <changed-files>
-clang-format --dry-run --Werror --style=file <changed-files>
 ```
 
 Pass only the files you changed; CI excludes vendored or generated CUDA and Arrow headers from its
-repository-wide check.
+repository-wide check. clang-format is idempotent, so a `--dry-run --Werror` pass over the files
+you just formatted cannot fail and is not worth running.
 
-Notes:
+When the user wants CMake integration tests, CI runs the Python unittest suite with:
 
-- For `.github/` changes, follow `.github/AGENTS.md` and run
-  `yamllint --strict -c .yamllint.yaml` on changed workflow files.
-- If cargo fails with exactly `sccache: error: Operation not permitted`, rerun that command
-  with `RUSTC_WRAPPER=` so rustc runs directly. Only do this for that exact error.
+```bash
+python3 -m unittest discover -s vortex-ffi/cmake/tests -v
+```
+
+These tests need CMake, Ninja, the C/C++ and Rust toolchains, and the lockfile-selected Cargo
+dependencies cached by `cargo fetch --locked`.
+
+### New and generated files
+
+These CI checks are the ones most often missed when adding files rather than editing them:
+
+- Every source file needs SPDX headers, in the comment syntax of its language:
 
-## CI Investigation
+  ```text
+  SPDX-License-Identifier: Apache-2.0
+  SPDX-FileCopyrightText: Copyright the Vortex contributors
+  ```
 
-- When iterating on CI failures, fetch only failed job logs first:
-  `gh run view <run-id> --job <job-id> --log-failed`.
-- Run narrow local repro commands for the affected crate, test, docs target, or binding before
-  running workspace-wide checks.
-- If a `gh` command fails with `error connecting to api.github.com` in the sandbox, immediately
-  rerun it with escalated network permissions instead of retrying in the sandbox.
-- Verify causation from logs, diffs, and local repros before attributing a failure to a PR.
+  `REUSE.toml` records the exceptions, including the CC-BY-4.0 licensing of `docs/**`.
+
+- Spelling is checked by `typos` against `_typos.toml`.
+- CI asserts `git status --porcelain` is empty after a build. Regenerate generated files with the
+  repository's tooling rather than editing them by hand, and commit the result.
+
+### Notes
+
+- For `.github/` changes, follow `.github/AGENTS.md`, which covers both the yamllint invocation and
+  the nightly toolchain pin.
+- If cargo fails with exactly `sccache: error: Operation not permitted`, rerun that command
+  with `RUSTC_WRAPPER=` so rustc runs directly. Only do this for that exact error.

-# Python Binding Guidance
-
-Applies to the Python bindings and their PyO3 implementation under `vortex-python/`.
-
-Run the commands below from the repository root.
-
-## Build and Development
-
-Follow the [Python binding development workflow](../CONTRIBUTING.md#python-bindings) in the
-contributor guide for environment setup, Maturin rebuilds, targeted testing, Cargo features, and
-the full Python check. Keep the contributor guide as the source of truth for shared commands.
-
-## Testing
-
-Run the narrow checks that match the files changed before broader Python suites:
-
-```bash
-python -m py_compile <changed-python-files>
-uv run --all-packages pytest <changed-python-tests>
-```
-
-If Python docstrings, `docs/api/python/`, or Sphinx configuration change, also follow
-`docs/AGENTS.md` and run the relevant clean Sphinx checks.
-
-## Linting and Formatting
-
-```bash
-uv run ty check vortex-python
-uv run ruff format --check <changed-python-files>
-uv run ruff check <changed-python-files>
-```
-
-If PyO3 Rust files under `vortex-python/src/` change, include:
-
-```bash
-cargo +nightly fmt --check -p vortex-python
-```
-
-Always finish Python binding work with `git diff --check`.

 - [`0_sum-with-filter.sql`](./0_sum-with-filter.sql): a filtered aggregation that forces a
   linear scan today; once statistics are propagated to arrays it should use zone maps
   instead of decoding every row.
 - [`1_sum.sql`](./1_sum.sql): an unfiltered aggregation that should eventually be answered
   from footer statistics without decoding data.
