Function vortex_fastlanes::bitpack_unchecked

pub unsafe fn bitpack_unchecked(
    parray: &PrimitiveArray,
    bit_width: u8,
) -> VortexResult<Buffer>

Bitpack a [PrimitiveArray] to the given width.

On success, returns a [Buffer] containing the packed data.

Safety

Internally this function will promote the provided array to its unsigned equivalent. This will violate ordering guarantees if the array contains any negative values.

It is the caller’s responsibility to ensure that parray is non-negative before calling this function.
