Grouped mean calculations now avoid overflowing intermediate sums for large integer inputs, including when null values are present.
Mean results remain accurate when combined with sum, count, and other aggregations in hash-based and streaming groupby operations.
Decimal mean results retain their decimal type when requested alongside sum.
Streaming groupby mean calculations now correctly handle values near signed and unsigned 64-bit limits across batches.
Hash and streaming groupby now accumulate MEAN values in the mean result type and finalize them using valid counts. The changes add single-pass and warp reduction support, partial merges, and finalization. Tests cover large integer values, nulls, combined aggregations, decimal results, and multiple batches.
Changes: Groupby MEAN accumulation
Layer / File(s)
Summary
Hash groupby accumulation and finalization cpp/include/cudf/detail/aggregation/aggregation.cuh, cpp/src/groupby/hash/*, cpp/tests/groupby/mean_tests.cpp
Hash groupby routes MEAN through single-pass reductions and accumulates in the mean result type. finalize_means divides results in place using matching COUNT_VALID results or cached counts. Tests cover overflowing integer sums, null values, combined aggregations, and decimal results.
Streaming MEAN aggregation cpp/src/groupby/streaming_groupby/*, cpp/tests/groupby/streaming_groupby_test.cpp
Streaming aggregation supports MEAN in warp reductions and partial merges. Gathered MEAN results are finalized before output finalization. Tests cover large integer values, nulls, multiple batches, and merging aggregators.
NVIDIA/cudf#24634: The issue includes group-by-dynamic queries using MEAN; this change updates groupby MEAN accumulation, although the issue does not state that its inputs overflow.

Merge Risk: Low · previous review 0cbc1
MEAN correctness is covered by the added hash and streaming tests, but the previously reported overhead for other fused aggregations remains open. The change is mergeable with owner awareness of that performance concern.

Explanation
Issue #25005 requires integral groupby MEAN to accumulate in double and requires SUM to remain unchanged. In single_pass_sums.cu, MEAN selects its result type as the accumulator, and fused aggregations only share compatible accumulator types. In partial_aggregates.cuh, streaming MEAN partials merge as sums. The added tests cover overflowing integral sums, MEAN with SUM, nulls, streaming batches, and comparison with reduction MEAN.

41-59: Trivial · Performance & Scalability · Heavy lift
Fused partials now always carry a MeanResult accumulator, even when MEAN_SUM is not requested.
fused_sums gains a mean_sum member for every fused run. grouped_fused_sums_fn and fused_sums_plus compute and add that member on every row. This applies to fusions that never request MEAN_SUM, such as SUM with VARIANCE, STD or M2.
For Result = int64_t and MeanResult = double, the struct grows from 24 to 32 bytes. That is 33% more partial state and per-row work in the fused reduction. Other code in this PR (minmax_sum_end, "avoid enlarging long-group partials") shows that partial size matters on this path.
Add a bool WithMean template parameter. Select it at dispatch time from std::find(kinds..., MEAN_SUM). When it is false, use a layout without mean_sum. Benchmark the existing SUM, VARIANCE and STD groupby cases before and after.
As per coding guidelines: "Suboptimal memory access patterns (non-coalesced, strided, unaligned)" and "Excessive memory allocations in hot paths" under HIGH performance issues.

The accumulator choice is right: MEAN's numerator should be summed in MEAN's target type, as reduction MEAN does. The remaining concerns are the public enum, the extra layout code and the sort-based path named in #25005. Is that path still reachable after #24251 merged? If not, the description should say so.
I'll share a reference implementation of this design shortly.
The reason will be displayed to describe this comment to others. Learn more.
aggregation::Kind is part of the public header, so this adds a public enumerator (and shifts INVALID) for something only the hash and streaming groupby backends use. An implementation detail shouldn't be added to the public API.
MEAN's numerator doesn't need its own kind. corresponding_operator<MEAN> is already DeviceSum, so the single-pass step for MEAN can sum in target_type_t<T, MEAN> directly. Then the decomposition is MEAN -> {MEAN, COUNT_VALID} and no new kind, dispatcher case, is_hash_aggregation entry or mean_sum_aggregation class is needed.

With MEAN as the single-pass numerator this helper isn't needed, and neither is the finalizer's has_result(col, mean_sum_agg) fallback in hash_compound_agg_finalizer.cu. MEAN is then just a single-pass result divided in place by its count, whatever the SUM type is.

fused_sums now has four specializations plus make_fused_sums and WithMean branches, only to keep a 24-byte partial for fusions without MEAN. That is a regime-specific path for a layout that no benchmark in the PR shows to matter. I'd keep one layout: fused runs share one accumulator type per column, and the fused sums are {sum, sum_of_squares, count} in the type of the aggregation that needs them. If an A/B shows the extra 8 bytes cost something, that is the justification to keep this.

uint64, int64_with_nulls and matches_reduction repeat the int64 case with a different type, null mask or oracle. They fit in one parameterized case (or extra rows in int64) instead of four tests. sum_and_mean_of_same_column and decimal_sum_and_mean cover different behavior and are worth keeping.
For reference, here is a sketch of the approach from the review, without a new aggregation kind: PointKernel@a9722c0
MEAN is decomposed into {MEAN, COUNT_VALID}. The single-pass MEAN sums in target_type_t<T, MEAN>, and the result is divided in place by its count. The streaming path uses the same slot. It is rebased on main after #24251, and it is not built or tested, so treat it as a reference rather than a finished patch.
Add a runtime check that all fused outputs share the accumulator type.
compute writes every requested sum through Result*. Result comes from MEAN when MEAN is requested, and from SUM otherwise. The static_assert at Line 100 only compares SUM and SUM_OF_SQUARES. It does not compare MEAN with the other kinds.
Today fused_end in compute_single_pass_aggs.cpp keeps the types equal. That is a cross-file invariant, and nothing enforces it here. compute_fused_sums is a declared entry point. Take a float input with MEAN and SUM_OF_SQUARES in kinds. MEAN selects double as Result. The SUM_OF_SQUARES column is float. The 8-byte writes then overrun the 4-byte column. For int64 input, a SUM column would silently receive double bit patterns. A cheap check turns this into a clear error.

Review comment at @cpp/src/groupby/hash/single_pass_sums.cu at line 129:
Add a runtime validation in compute_fused_sums that each requested output
written through Result* has an accumulator type matching Result. Account for
COUNT_VALID according to its established output semantics, and reject
incompatible fused kinds with a clear error before writing results.
Add tests for the other reduction paths that now accumulate MEAN.
The new tests use 4 to 9 rows. They only exercise the small-group scalar path. MEAN is now routed through the warp-reduction path, the block-reduced long-group path, the batched reduction path, and the fused-sums path. A regression in one of these paths would pass the current tests.
Add these cases to the overflow suite:
One group larger than a warp, and one larger than a block, with values whose int64 sum overflows.
An empty input.
A sliced values column. finalize_means rebuilds views with mean.offset().
As per coding guidelines: "Tests missing edge cases: empty input, null values, sliced columns, boundary sizes, multi-block sizes".
