Diego Ceccarelli commented on LUCENE-8996:
------------------------------------------
Thanks [~cpoerschke]: good point about the change of initialisation! I
integrated your patch into the PR. Now it initialise the values with MIN_VALUE,
I updated the tests and the only difference this line:
https://github.com/apache/lucene-solr/blob/d5c93123135393a75b6766d0e89bf10d2277f2ad/lucene/grouping/src/test/org/apache/lucene/search/grouping/TopGroupsTest.java#L134
-> If you merge two groups with no real maxScores the final result will be
MIN_VALUE (NaN would make more sense imo) but it's worth noting that this
*should* never happen in theory because if no segment contains documents about
group x it shouldn't be possible that we retrieve documents about group x in
first place.
What do you think?

> This issue occurs when using the grouping feature in distributed mode and
> sorting by score.
> Each group's {{docList}} in the response is supposed to contain a
> {{maxScore}} entry that hold the maximum score for that group. Using the
> current releases, it sometimes happens that this piece of information is not
> included:
> {code}
> {
> "responseHeader": {
> "status": 0,
> "QTime": 42,
> "params": {
> "sort": "score desc",
> "fl": "id,score",
> "q": "_text_:\"72\"",
> "group.limit": "2",
> "group.field": "group2",

> "groupValue": 45,
> "doclist": {
> "numFound": 5,

> "docs": [

> "score": 1.8988966

> "score": 1.5191172
> }
> ]
> }
> }
> ]
> }
> }
> }
> {code}
> Looking into the issue, it comes from the fact that if a shard does not
> contain a document from that group, trying to merge its {{maxScore}} with
> real {{maxScore}} entries from other shards is invalid (it results in NaN).
> I'm attaching a patch containing a fix.
