feat: Add nullable vector support in import utility layer (#46142)
related: #45993 

Add nullable vector support in import utility layer
    
Key changes:

ImportV2 util:
- Add nullable vector types (FloatVector, Float16Vector, BFloat16Vector,
BinaryVector, SparseFloatVector, Int8Vector) to
AppendNullableDefaultFieldsData()
- Add tests for nullable vector field data appending

CSV/JSON/Numpy readers:
- Add nullPercent parameter to test data generation for better null
coverage
- Mark vector fields as nullable in test schemas
- Add test cases for nullable vector field parsing
- Refactor tests to use loop-based approach with 0%, 50%, 100% null
percentages

Parquet field reader:
- Add ReadNullableBinaryData() for nullable
BinaryVector/Float16Vector/BFloat16Vector
- Add ReadNullableFloatVectorData() for nullable FloatVector
- Add ReadNullableSparseFloatVectorData() for nullable SparseFloatVector
- Add ReadNullableInt8VectorData() for nullable Int8Vector
- Add ReadNullableStructData() for generic nullable struct data
- Update Next() to use nullable read methods when field is nullable
- Add null data validation for non-nullable fields

- Core invariant: import must preserve per-row alignment and validity
for every field — nullable vector fields are expected to be encoded with
per-row validity masks and all readers/writers must emit arrays aligned
to original input rows (null entries represented explicitly).
- New feature & scope: adds end-to-end nullable-vector support in the
import utility layer — AppendNullableDefaultFieldsData in
internal/datanode/importv2/util.go now appends nil placeholders for
nullable vectors (FloatVector, Float16Vector, BFloat16Vector,
BinaryVector, SparseFloatVector, Int8Vector); parquet reader
(internal/util/importutilv2/parquet/field_reader.go) adds
ReadNullableBinaryData, ReadNullableFloatVectorData,
ReadNullableSparseFloatVectorData, ReadNullableInt8VectorData,
ReadNullableStructData and routes nullable branches to these helpers;
CSV/JSON/Numpy readers and test utilities updated to generate and
validate 0/50/100% null scenarios and mark vector fields as nullable in
test schemas.
- Logic removed / simplified: eliminates ad-hoc "parameter-invalid"
rejections for nullable vectors inside FieldReader.Next by centralizing
nullable handling into ReadNullable* helpers and shared validators
(getArrayDataNullable,
checkNullableVectorAlignWithDim/checkNullableVectorAligned), simplifying
control flow and removing scattered special-case checks.
- No data loss / no regression (concrete code paths): nulls are
preserved end-to-end — AppendNullableDefaultFieldsData explicitly
inserts nil entries per null row (datanode import append path);
ReadNullable*Data helpers return both data and []bool validity masks so
callers in field_reader.go and downstream readers receive exact per-row
validity; testutil.BuildSparseVectorData was extended to accept
validData so sparse vectors are materialized only for valid rows while
null rows are represented as missing. These concrete paths ensure null
rows are represented rather than dropped, preventing data loss or
behavioral regression.

Data Node

DataNode is the component to write insert and delete messages into persistent blob storage, for example MinIO or S3.

Dependency

  • KV store: a kv store that persists messages into blob storage.
  • Message stream: receive messages and publish information
  • Root Coordinator: get the latest unique IDs.
  • Data Coordinator: get the flush information and which message stream to subscribe.
