--------------------------------------

             Summary: Docvalues sorting treats empty values as the default
                 Key: LUCENE-7548
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-7548
             Project: Lucene - Core
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Erick Erickson


I found this working on Solr, Mike suggested I raise it as a Lucene issue.

This was for int fields, I'll assume the same holds for other types.

The sort order is as though the null field was explicitly set to zero, the 
whole idea of sorting missing first is lost.

doc1
int_dv = 0
int_sort = 1

doc2
int_sort=2

doc3
int_dv = 0
int_sort=3

sort by int_dv asc,int_sort asc gives
doc1
doc2
doc3

when it should give
doc2
doc1
doc3
