Worked on the apache/spark repository to refactor the DataSourceV2 runtime filter pushdown logic, consolidating it into a reusable helper function to improve modularity and maintainability across physical scan operators. The approach involved encapsulating runtime-filter translation, partition planning, and alignment logic within PushDownUtils.filterAndPlanPartitions, ensuring consistent behavior while preserving all existing user-facing functionality. This Scala-based work in the context of big data and data engineering reduced code duplication and simplified future maintenance, while also laying the groundwork for subsequent performance optimizations in the runtime-filter pipeline. All changes were validated by existing tests, with no user-facing modifications introduced.
Month: 2026-05. Key accomplishment: Implemented a refactor for DataSourceV2 runtime filter pushdown in Apache Spark, consolidating the logic into a reusable helper to improve modularity and future reuse across DataSourceV2 physical scan operators. The change encapsulates runtime-filter translation, partition planning, and related alignment logic into PushDownUtils.filterAndPlanPartitions, enabling consistent behavior across multiple scan operators while preserving existing user-facing behavior. Impact: This work reduces duplication, simplifies maintenance, and sets the stage for subsequent performance optimizations in the runtime-filter pipeline. Notes: No user-facing changes were introduced; all existing tests continue to cover behavior. This PR closes #55887 and aligns with SPARK-56868 around a shared v2 runtime-filter helper.
