Description

Update the installed T-digest generators, expected-column builders, validators, and shared groupby/reduction drivers to accept cudf::memory_resources. Returned T-digest columns use the output resource; input construction, intermediate results, and validation scratch use the temporary resource.

This allows T-digest tests to control their setup and validation allocations without falling back to the current device resource.

This is a non-breaking change for existing callers of these test helpers.

Depends on #23581.

Part of #20780

Review Change Stack

📝 Walkthrough

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Tests

    • Added coverage to verify t-digest operations honor configured memory resources.
    • Improved validation of temporary and output allocation behavior, including cleanup after synchronization.
    • Expanded testing for empty merges, null values, percentile distributions, and aggregation workflows.
  • Refactor

    • Improved consistency and reliability of t-digest test utilities by supporting explicit memory and stream configuration.

Walkthrough

The PR adds memory-resource parameters to T-digest test utilities. Intermediate and output allocations now use explicit resources and streams. A reduction test tracks allocation counts before and after synchronization and resource-scope release.

Changes

T-digest memory-resource propagation

Layer / File(s) Summary
Resource-aware generation and comparison
cpp/include/cudf_test/tdigest_utilities.hpp, cpp/tests/utilities/tdigest_utilities.cpp
Distribution generation, expected-column construction, sampling comparisons, gathering, casting, concatenation, and column comparisons now use configured temporary and output resources.
Allocator-aware aggregation and merge helpers
cpp/include/cudf_test/tdigest_utilities.hpp
Simple, null, all-null, and merge helpers now propagate memory resources through inputs, intermediates, expected outputs, and verification. Empty-merge testing also accepts allocator configuration.
Allocation tracking validation
cpp/tests/reductions/tdigest_tests.cpp
A reduction test supplies separate statistics adaptors, synchronizes the stream, and verifies live and cumulative allocation counts.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 9f312

The PR updates T-digest test helpers to support controlled memory resources, but some aggregation paths still allocate through default resources instead of the requested output resource. This can cause resource tracking and allocation expectations to be incorrect, so the propagation issue should be fixed or explicitly accepted before merge.

Propagate the output resource through all t-digest callbacks.

The callbacks use default resources for cudf::reduce, copied child columns, and cudf::make_structs_column. Extend the callback contract and pass cudf::get_default_stream() and mr.get_output_mr() through every aggregation and merge path. Add tracked-resource coverage.

Add a unit benchmark for resource-aware T-digest utilities.

This test adds unit coverage, but this cohort adds no unit benchmark. Add a benchmark that exercises the resource-aware generation or aggregation path with distinct output and temporary resources.
