LiftFilter is indeed only extending ServletFilterProvider which is oriented obviously for JEE servlet filter processing (we do this for backward compatibility reasons). ServletFilterProvider is also extending HTTPProvider which knows about LiftServlet. ServletFilterProvider just calls the service function and from here the LiftServlet gets called. HTTPProvider trait has no knowledge about servlets API, neither LiftServlet which is not a real JEE servlet.
