Wes McKinney commented on ARROW-4121:
-------------------------------------
To be clear, we need to have a usable code path for both the case of
* allocate memory and invoke kernel
* invoke kernel on pre-allocated memory
Right now we only have the first option.
There's some code that partly handles this issue in kernels/cast.cc, but it
could also benefit from some refactoring (to make the "allocate output space"
problem more generic / reusable for other kernel implementations)
> [C++] Remove memory allocation from InvertKernel

> subtask for overall fix to remove memory allocation. Do this first to make
> sure I understand the problem and acceptable solution (seems like a simple
> API change).
