Fix fallback to sort aggregation for grouping only hash aggregate (#9891
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
)

The following fixes what looks like an unintended fallback to sort aggregate introduced in #9545 for a grouping only (no aggregation request) case.

In the PR, the `std::all_of` function is used to determine whether the aggregation requests would be for struct types. That said, when there are no aggregation requests the `std::all_of` function will return true, causing a fallback to the sort aggregation (relevant code: https://github.com/rapidsai/cudf/pull/9545/files#diff-e409f72ddc11ad10fa0099e21b409b92f12bfac8ba1817266696c34a620aa081R645-R650).

I added a benchmark `group_no_requests_benchmark.cu` by mostly copying `group_sum_benchmark.cu` but I changed one critical part. I am re-creating the `groupby` object for each `state`:

```
  for (auto _ : state) {
    cuda_event_timer timer(state, true);
    cudf::groupby::groupby gb_obj(cudf::table_view({keys}));e
    auto result = gb_obj.aggregate(requests);
  }
```

This shows what would happen in the scenario where the `groupby` instance is created each time an aggregate is issued, which would re-create the `helper` each time for the sorted case. 

If the `groupby` object is not recreated each time, the difference in performance between the before/after cases is negligible. We never recycle a `groupby` instance when using the groupby API from Spark.

Posting this as draft for feedback as I am not sure if I handled the benchmark part correctly.

This was executed on a T4 GPU.
