Currently, the mvn script can automatically fetch and build all dependency libraries incluing Velox and Arrow. Our nightly build still use Velox under oap-project.
Currently Gluten+Velox backend is only tested on Ubuntu20.04 and Ubuntu22.04. Other OS support are still in progress . The final goal is to support several common OS and conda env deployment. Velox uses the script setup-ubuntu.sh to install all dependency libraries, but Arrow's dependency libraries isn't installed. Velox also requires ninja for compilation. So we need to install all of them manually. Also, we need to set up the JAVA_HOME env. Currently, java 8 is required and the support for java 11/17 is not ready.
## run as root
## install gcc and libraries to build arrow
apt-get update && apt-get install -y sudo locales wget tar tzdata git ccache cmake ninja-build build-essential llvm-11-dev clang-11 libiberty-dev libdwarf-dev libre2-dev libz-dev libssl-dev libboost-all-dev libcurl4-openssl-dev openjdk-8-jdk maven
## make sure jdk8 is used
export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk-amd64
export PATH=$JAVA_HOME/bin:$PATH
## config maven, like proxy in ~/.m2/settings.xml
## fetch gluten code
git clone https://github.com/oap-project/gluten.git
It's recommended to use buildbundle-veloxbe.sh and build gluten in one script. Gluten Usage listed the parameters and their default value of build command for your reference.
cd /path_to_gluten
## The script builds two jars for spark 3.2.2 and 3.3.1.
./dev/buildbundle-veloxbe.sh
## When you have successfully compiled once and changed some codes then compile again.
## you may use following command to skip the arrow, velox and protobuf build
# ./dev/buildbundle-veloxbe.sh --build_arrow_from_source=OFF --build_velox_from_source=OFF --build_protobuf=OFF
Alternatively you may build gluten step by step as below.
## fetch arrow and compile
cd /path_to_gluten/ep/build-arrow/src/
./get_arrow.sh
./build_arrow_for_velox.sh
## fetch velox
cd /path_to_gluten/ep/build-velox/src/
./get_velox.sh
## compile velox
./build_velox.sh
## compile gluten cpp
cd /path_to_gluten/cpp
./compile.sh --build_velox_backend=ON
### compile gluten jvm and package jar
cd /path_to_gluten
# For spark3.2.x
mvn clean package -Pbackends-velox -Pspark-3.2 -DskipTests
# For spark3.3.x
mvn clean package -Pbackends-velox -Pspark-3.3 -DskipTests
Once building successfully, the Jar file is generated in the directory: package/velox/spark32/target/gluten-spark3.2_2.12-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT-jar-with-dependencies.jar. It's the only jar we need to config to Spark 3.2.2. Jar for spark3.3.1 is package/velox/spark32/target/gluten-spark3.3_1.12-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT-jar-with-dependencies.jar
You can also clone the Velox source from OAP/velox to some other folder then specify it as below.
step 1: recompile velox, set velox_home in build_velox.sh
cd /path_to_gluten/ep/build_velox/src
./build_velox.sh --velox_home=/your_specified_velox_path --build_velox_backend=ON
step 2: recompile gluten cpp folder, set velox_home in build_velox.sh
cd /path_to_gluten/cpp
./compile.sh --velox_home=/your_specified_velox_path
step 3: package jar
cd /path_to_gluten
# For spark3.2.x
mvn clean package -Pbackends-velox -Pspark-3.2 -DskipTests
# For spark3.3.x
mvn clean package -Pbackends-velox -Pspark-3.3 -DskipTests
Arrow home can be set as the same of Velox. We will soon switch to upstream Arrow. Currently the shuffle still uses Arrow's IPC interface. You can also clone the Arrow source from OAP/Arrow to some other folder then specify it as below.
step 1: set ARROW_SOURCE_DIR in build_arrow_for_velox.sh and compile
cd /path_to_gluten/ep/build-arrow/src/
./build_arrow_for_velox.sh
step 2: set ARROW_ROOT in compile.sh or run with --arrow_root
cd /path_to_gluten/cpp
sh ./compile.sh --arrow_root=/your_arrow_lib
step 3: package jar
cd /path_to_gluten
# For spark3.2.x
mvn clean package -Pbackends-velox -Pspark-3.2 -DskipTests
# For spark3.3.x
mvn clean package -Pbackends-velox -Pspark-3.3 -DskipTests
Hadoop hdfs support is ready via the libhdfs3 library. The libhdfs3 provides native API for Hadoop I/O without the drawbacks of JNI. It also provides advanced authentatication like Kerberos based. Please note this library has serveral depedencies which may require extra installations on Driver and Worker node. On Ubuntu 20.04 the required depedencis are libiberty-dev, libxml2-dev, libkrb5-dev, libgsasl7-dev, libuuid1, uuid-dev. The packages can be installed via below command:
sudo apt install -y libiberty-dev libxml2-dev libkrb5-dev libgsasl7-dev libuuid1 uuid-dev
To build Gluten with HDFS support, below command is provided:
cd /path_to_gluten/ep/build-velox/src
./build_velox.sh --enable_hdfs=ON
cd /path_to_gluten/cpp
./compile.sh --enable_hdfs=ON
cd /path_to_gluten
mvn clean package -Pbackends-velox -Pspark-3.2 -Pfull-scala-compiler -DskipTests -Dcheckstyle.skip
Gluten HDFS support requires an extra environment variable "VELOX_HDFS" to indicate the Hdfs URI. e.g. VELOX_HDFS="host:port". If the env variable is missing, Gluten will try to connect with hdfs://localhost:9000
This env should be exported in both Spark driver and worker. e.g., in Spark local mode:
export VELOX_HDFS="hdfshost:9000"
If running in Spark Yarn cluster mode, the env variable need to be set on each executor:
--conf spark.executorEnv.VELOX_HDFS="hdfshost:9000"
One typical deployment on Spark/HDFS cluster is to enable short-circuit reading. Short-circuit reads provide a substantial performance boost to many applications.
By default libhdfs3 does not set the default hdfs domain socket path to support HDFS short-circuit read. If this feature is required in HDFS setup, users may need to setup the domain socket path correctly by patching the libhdfs3 source code or by setting the correct config environment. In Gluten the short-circuit domain socket path is set to "/var/lib/hadoop-hdfs/dn_socket" in build_velox.sh So we need to make sure the folder existed and user has write access as below script.
sudo mkdir -p /var/lib/hadoop-hdfs/
sudo chown <sparkuser>:<sparkuser> /var/lib/hadoop-hdfs/
You also need to add configuration to the "hdfs-site.xml" as below:
<property>
<name>dfs.client.read.shortcircuit</name>
<value>true</value>
</property>
<property>
<name>dfs.domain.socket.path</name>
<value>/var/lib/hadoop-hdfs/dn_socket</value>
</property>
Hadoop Yarn mode is supported. Note libhdfs3 is used to read from HDFS, all its depedencies should be installed on each worker node. Users may requried to setup extra LD_LIBRARY_PATH if the depedencies are not on system's default library path. On Ubuntu 20.04 the dependencies can be installed with below command:
sudo apt install -y libiberty-dev libxml2-dev libkrb5-dev libgsasl7-dev libuuid1 uuid-dev
Velox supports S3 with the open source AWS C++ SDK and Gluten uses Velox S3 connector to connect with S3. A new build option for S3(velox_enable_s3) is added. Below command is used to enable this feature
cd /path_to_gluten/ep/build-velox/src/
./build_velox.sh --enable_s3=ON
cd /path_to_gluten/cpp
./compile.sh --enable_s3=ON
cd /path_to_gluten
mvn clean package -Pbackends-velox -Pspark-3.2 -Pfull-scala-compiler -DskipTests -Dcheckstyle.skip
Currently to use S3 connector below configurations are required in spark-defaults.conf
spark.hadoop.fs.s3a.impl org.apache.hadoop.fs.s3a.S3AFileSystem
spark.hadoop.fs.s3a.aws.credentials.provider org.apache.hadoop.fs.s3a.SimpleAWSCredentialsProvider
spark.hadoop.fs.s3a.access.key xxxx
spark.hadoop.fs.s3a.secret.key xxxx
spark.hadoop.fs.s3a.endpoint https://s3.us-west-1.amazonaws.com
spark.hadoop.fs.s3a.connection.ssl.enabled true
spark.hadoop.fs.s3a.path.style.access false
You can also use instance credentials by setting the following config
spark.hadoop.fs.s3a.use.instance.credentials true
If you are using instance credentials you do not have to set the access key or secret key.
Note if testing with local S3-like service(Minio/Ceph), users may need to use different configurations for these configurations. E.g., on Minio setup, the "spark.hadoop.fs.s3a.path.style.access" need to set to "true".
Spark3.3 has 387 functions in total. ~240 are commonly used. Velox's functions have two category, Presto and Spark. Presto has 124 functions implemented. Spark has 62 functions. Spark functions are verified to have the same result as Vanilla Spark. Some Presto functions have the same result as Vanilla Spark but some others have different. Gluten prefer to use Spark functions firstly. If it's not in Spark's list but implemented in Presto, we currently offload to Presto one until we noted some result mismatch, then we need to reimplement the function in Spark category. Gluten currently offloads 53 functions.
Here is the operator support list:
Union operator is implemented in JVM, needn't to offload to native.
Gluten supports allocating memory on HBM. This feature is optional and is disabled by default. It requires Memkind library to be installed. Please follow memkind's readme to build and install all the dependencies and the library.
To enable this feature in Gluten, users can. Below command is used to enable this feature.
cd /path_to_gluten/cpp
./compile.sh --enable_hbm
cd /path_to_gluten
mvn clean package -Pbackends-velox -Pspark-3.2 -Pfull-scala-compiler -DskipTests -Dcheckstyle.skip
Note that memory allocation fallback is also supported and cannot be turned off. If HBM is unavailable or fills up, the allocator will use default(DDR) memory.
During testing, it is possible that HBM is detected but not being used at runtime. The workaround is to set MEMKIND_HBW_NODES enviroment variable in the runtime environment. For the explaination to this variable, please refer to memkind's manual page. This can be set for all executors through spark conf, e.g. --conf spark.executorEnv.MEMKIND_HBW_NODES=8-15
In Gluten, all 22 queries can be fully offloaded into Velox for computing.
Considering current Velox does not fully support Decimal and Date data type, the datagen script transforms "Decimal-to-Double" and "Date-to-String". As a result, we need to modify the TPCH queries a bit. You can find the modified TPC-H queries.
Submit test script from spark-shell. You can find the scala code to Run TPC-H as an example. Please remember to modify the location of TPC-H files as well as TPC-H queries in backends-velox/workload/tpch/run_tpch/tpch_parquet.scala before you run the testing.
var parquet_file_path = "/PATH/TO/TPCH_PARQUET_PATH"
var gluten_root = "/PATH/TO/GLUTEN"
Below script shows an example about how to run the testing, you should modify the parameters such as executor cores, memory, offHeap size based on your environment.
export GLUTEN_JAR = /PATH/TO/GLUTEN/backends-velox/target/gluten-spark3.2_2.12-1.0.0-snapshot-jar-with-dependencies.jar

wholestagetransformer indicates that the offload works.
Below table shows the TPC-H Q1 and Q6 Performance in a multiple-thread test (--num-executors 6 --executor-cores 6) for Velox and vanilla Spark. Both Parquet and ORC datasets are sf1024.
| Query Performance (s) | Velox (ORC) | Vanilla Spark (Parquet) | Vanilla Spark (ORC) |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPC-H Q6 | 13.6 | 21.6 | 34.9 |
| TPC-H Q1 | 26.1 | 76.7 | 84.9 |
