[jira] [Updated] (LUCENE-3582) NumericUtils.floatToSortableInt/doubleToSortableLong does not sort certain NaN ranges correctly and NumericRangeQuery produces wrong results for NaNs with half-open ranges

Uwe Schindler updated LUCENE-3582:
----------------------------------

    Summary: NumericUtils.floatToSortableInt/doubleToSortableLong does not sort certain NaN ranges correctly and NumericRangeQuery produces wrong results for NaNs with half-open ranges  (was: NumericUtils.floatToSortableInt does not sort certain NaN ranges correctly.)

> The current implementation of floatToSortableInt does not account for different NaN ranges which may result in NaNs sorted before -Infinity and after +Infinity. The default Java ordering is: all NaNs after Infinity.
> A possible fix is to make all NaNs canonic "quiet NaN" as in:
> {code}
> // Canonicalize NaN ranges. I assume this check will be faster here than 
> // (v == v) == false on the FPU? We don't distinguish between different
> // flavors of NaNs here (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NaN). I guess
> // in Java this doesn't matter much anyway.
> if ((v & 0x7fffffff) > 0x7f800000) {
>   // Apply the logic below to a canonical "quiet NaN"
>   return 0x7fc00000 ^ 0x80000000;
> }
> {code}
> I don't commit because I don't know how much of the existing stuff relies on this (nobody should be keeping different NaNs  in their indexes, but who knows...).
