Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~25 minutes Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to This change introduces automatic selection between single-pass and two-pass hybrid scans, but the public option documentation still describes hybrid scans as always using two-pass execution. The PR is otherwise mergeable, with explicit owner follow-up needed to keep user-facing behavior documentation accurate. Suggested reviewers: 🚥 Pre-merge checks | ✅ 4 | ❌ 1❌ Failed checks (1 warning)

A couple of general obervations:
IIUC, this will let us control whether we read the payload and filter columns separately, in terms of calls to plc.io.parquet_io_utils.fetch_byte_ranges_to_device (at the end of the day, they're typically going to be separate physical read / GET requests, at least for large files). But there's third option of fetching the data concurrently, but parsing it separately. I don't know if that's ever worth doing, but I want to at least raise it as an option since I incorrectly stated previously that we had to choose between the two options you have here.
Second, I'd appreciate a comment somewhere indicating that this is just a heuristic, and what we'd be able to do in an ideal world. My (possibly incorrect) understanding is that
- filter_row_groups_with_stats is effective when you have a filter and the data are somehow organized (e.g. sorted / partitioned by) the filter column(s). That's a property of the data.
- bloom filter filtering is effective when the data were written with bloom filters (not always true) and only for certain types of data / queries (set membership)
- This additional two-pass filtering being controlled here is effective when you have a highly selective filter: so we'd ideally like to know the selectivity of the expression. We don't know that generally, but there are techniques for estimating it.
Now that I've written this up, I do wonder: is row-group / bloom filter eliminating row groups a good heuristic for selectivity of an expression? I'd say maybe, but definitely not always. If a user has put thought into how their data are written then they might have sorted / partitioned their row groups by the column(s) being filtered. But ultimately, the selectivity of some expression is a property of the data itself, and not how it happened to be written. You could easily have a filter where x <= 1 that returns just a few rows, but have those few rows scattered across the row groups. In that case, the row group filter wouldn't (necessarily) eliminate anything, and we'd make the "wrong" choice using the one-pass algorithm instead of the two-pass.

General question about Unspecified: should that ever make it into the application (cudf-polars)? Or is that only something that should used on the boundary when converting from some user-provided options into a concrete configuration?
IME, it's best to resolve these into something valid as soon as possible. So I would expect the type here to be just pass_mode: HybridScanPassMode and then in from_polars_engine we handle converting from arbitrary user input to something that's valid.
If we need some way to represent "we'll figure this out dynamically at runtime", that feels like a different type than "Unspecified", either as another member of the enum or by using something like HybridScanPassMode | Literal["auto"].

Description
Hybrid scan always fetched filter and payload columns as two separate requests, even when stats/bloom pruning eliminated no row groups. On S3 that's two round trips for bytes one fetch would move, paid for nothing when pruning didn't help.
Adds HybridScanPassMode (
SINGLE_PASS/TWO_PASS).TWO_PASSonly when pruning actually shrinksrow_group_indices, otherwiseSINGLE_PASS, one fetch and one decode pass throughHybridScanReader.materialize_all_columns, same shape as the plain reader.TWO_PASS's row mask can still prune at the page level with zero row groups eliminated, so this is a heuristic.Benchmarks
